Convince Me!

Discussion in 'Politics' started by fuckthecops, Oct 22, 2011.

  1. Without mentioning marijuana or drug policy, convince me to vote for Ron Paul.

    Go!
     
  2. That's up to you to research and decide for yourself, not just take our word for it.

    But, if you have 10 minutes, this video is pretty remarkable.

  3. well it seems drug policy is the only thing you have a good understanding of or care about, or have looked into, so rather than ask us to explain all of his stances and how they're right and how he's preached them and predicted things for over 3 decades, vote for him because of his war on drugs stance since no other candidate share it.
     
  4. Because, if you don't, when you get to be my age and look back at history and your role in it, you will feel like a tool.
     
  5. This is really the time to listen to your elders. I'm not on of them, but I've learned this lesson the hard way.
     
  6. REASONS TO VOTE FOR RON PAUL:

    1. He is 100% for the constitution.

    2. He will secure the border.

    3. HE WILL END THE FED. THE FED PLAY A HUGE ROLE IN SCREWING OVER THE PEOPLE.

    4. He has more military support then any other candidate..meaning the military supports him because he understands them and knows that they dont want to fight pointless wars.

    5. He is completely against corruption...anything that goes against the people will cause him to speak out against it.

    6. HE WILL BRING THE TROOPS HOME. thats right, he will bring EVERY SINGLE SOLDIER, SAILOR, MARINE AND AIRMAN HOME FROM EVERY COUNTRY!!!!!!!!

    7. He will end the war on drugs. it only benefits drug cartels.

    8. He is for a smaller government..the government we have right now is too powerful and controls its people. forces us to take vaccines, forces people to be brainwashed in to working those slave hour wage jobs which pay NOTHING.

    9. He is for a free society..meaning people are not judged by what they look like or what they do. FREE WILL. people can do what they want. Do you nkow that in countries in which drugs are legal, there are less abuse? just the fact that drugs are illegal makes people want them.

    10.He is VERY SMART. he is CONSISTENT. HE HAS KEPT THE SAME IDEAS FOR OVER 40 YEARS.

    11. HE PREDICTED OUR ECONOMIES FAILURE AND DEBT. EVERYTHING HE PREDICTED CAME TRUE.

    i can go on and on. The main reason you need to vote for this man is because he is a hero. He is the last true symbol of freedom in this country. Look at all the other candidates...they are all supported and endorsed by big banks and corporations...guess who ron paul is supported and endorsed by? THE PEOPLE. 100%.

    Whether you decide to vote for him or not, He is my hero. i understand everything he says completely. He is the truth and right now he is leading a revolution. do you not realize how important this time in history is? WE ARE IN A REVOLUTION. join it. support it. later on you can tell yourself i stood up against the corrupt. Ron Paul will restore america. Thats why i think you should vote for him.

  8. Im always extremely skeptical about these sort of threads. OP's mind is usually made up already.

  10. I wish I was super rich so I could by TV air time and just play this on every major network.
     
  11. It depends on what you see valuable in an elected official? Do you like what's going on in our country right now? The Dollar imploding, the income division gap becoming wider, the government becoming bigger and more intrusive, the wars that are getting out of our control...... vote for Obama, Romney, Perry, or Cain.

    If you want a smaller government, lower tax rates, restoration of personal liberties, no foreign aid until we aid our own people, bring home all of our troops from unconstitutional wars that are continuing to hurt our world image, a strong monetary note, cancellation of the FED and their fake rates..... vote Ron Paul 2012!
     


  12. are you serious? if drug policy was all I cared about, this thread wouldn't exist


    again, why this assumption? I literally gave NO opinions about him in this thread. I'm seriously trying to understand why why you guys want to vote for him!


    If you don't have something to contribute, then don't respond. I am well aware of google. The point of this thread was to see if anyone could give me a convincing argument without mentioning drug policy. If I wanted facts, I would do research. That's not what I'm looking for. I want the opinions of my fellow blades. I want a discussion, you know, like in a forum? A google search can't do that for me.


    Thanks for actually giving a legitimate answer. Strong points, but ending the fed still creeps me out. I don't understand why people think this is a good idea. Anybody want to clarify?


    No I don't like what's going on in our country, so I don't want to vote for any of the cookie cutter candidates. On the other hand, Ron Paul is on point with a lot of common sense things, but his financial policy is too radical for me. Can anybody please offer me an argument for his policy on the FED? Please don't tell me to do research. Again, this is a forum. Let's keep the discussion going.
     

  13. Ron Paul: Blame the Fed for the Financial Crisis - WSJ.com

    That's straight from the horse's mouth. It's really not a long read and it explains exactly why the Federal Reserve is bad for the economy.

    I mean, we can also go into the fact that the Federal Reserve was drafted up by a select group of incredibly rich people to minimize competition for the big banks but that's a whole different thread altogether.
     
  14. if you cared about anything but it, you'd already of educated yourself on the issues not ask for them, and would of realized Ron Paul is the only hope against these..and woudn't ask us to convince you, you'd be talking about the issues that are talked about daily.
     


  15. Yeah I mean a lot of the people talking in The Federal Reserve thread are also Ron Paul supporters, so that place is a great tool to research on the Fed and discuss your concerns there.

    With that being said, I would love to find out what you view as Radical and not Radical, because I could easily argue that that things we're doing currently with our foreign policy, economic policy, and social policy --are currently reckless and radical, and the stances RP has are anything but radical.
     
  16. There are several informative posts with sources throughout this forum on the need to end the Federal Reserve, I'll dig up a few.

  18. Anybody who is mentally sane wouldn't need convinced that Ron Paul is favorable over the clowns that are trying to grab the bid for presidency.

    It angers me that people need convincing that he's the right choice. I mean, honestly, he breaks it down simple for you and you still need convincing?

    Read them. And don't forget about his foreign policy because Obama doesn't even come close, if that isn't already obvious.
