Don't have to agree with him on all or even most issues, but he's the only politicians who will stop the killing of millions in so many of our names (not to mention tax dollars).
haha well maybe each of these threads convinces two people to look into ron paul and of those two people one of them likes his ideas. then that guy is a ron paul supporter and starts spreading the love. its a pyramid scheme to get ron paul into presidency. only we're not robbing wealth we're giving info. My opinion is that anyone who doesn't support ron paul is ignorant or evil.
if those people did their proper diligence and decided that Paul isn't their choice, then more power to them. if they just heard Sean Hannity say that Paul is crazy and dangerous and made their decision that way without any sort of research.. then i'd say they were short changing themselves. to expect everyone in the US to agree with and vote for Ron Paul is kind of insane.
Well Ron paul bases pretty much all of his policies off of an austrian economics point of view. austrian economics is about logic and reason, bottom up thinking. aka rational thought. if you dont agree with rational thought then your missing something. imo
Ron Paul or not, I want to know who they support and why. I like ron Paul because my opinions closely match his platform more than the others. I don't care if he says he will legalize weed. That's not a priority issue to me.
I am not expecting everyone to agree with him, I am expecting them to vote for him. I consider them either politically ignorant, evil or an accomplice of the greatest terrorists on the face of the earth.
hmmm...how politically ignorant of you to feel that way...ironic how anti-constitutional that sounds of you... peoplehave a right to vote for whom ever the fuck they so choose, same as you do. Doesn't make anyone right or wrong, there is no prize for picking the winner...you vote for whom you think is the best choice. ...besides, popular vote means nothing, not with zombies in the mix in record numbers...that and the electoral vote being the actual vote that *appoints* a potus I for one welcome the zombie overlords taking of office! Long live the 1%! GO DC! <barf puke spit>
I think the majority of people who don't support Ron Paul are either not informed or misinformed when it comes to politics. If people would read his books or research libertarian ideas their is literally no reason why somebody wouldn't vote for him. His philosophy is basically live and let live. So unless your a religious fanatic, an imperialist, a fascist or basically anyone that feels a compulsion to force people to live a certain way you should vote for Ron Paul. Want to start a socialist society? Go right ahead. Want to live a religous life style go ahead. Want to live a life of drugs prostitution and gambling? Go right fucking ahead! And so on and so forth. Want to enforce your morality and your beliefs on others? No you may fucking not! Of course thats whats going on in the United states today everybody wants to tell everybody else how to live! It makes me sick!
its not unconstitutional per say to vote in an imperialist. If they were to convince congress to declare war in order to conquer another country that would be constitutional. Ron Paul is certainly not an imperialist though. And cball is a ron paul supporter he has just gone insane, hopefully temporarily and is sarcastically throwing himself at the feet of our overlords in Washington D.C.
Well constitutional or not, I am ashamed to live amongst people (not talking about cball) who endorse these imperialist wars in our name. I mean who the fuck do we think we are?
Anyone who is educated and informed enough must realize that voting for any candidate in the upcoming elections apart from Ron Paul is a vote for war and exploitation. Romney, Gingrich, Obama etc etc... are all the same. Warmongers... If you a shred of decency in your body you would vote for Ron Paul because of his foreign policies alone.
I don't know, I've read that some voters do base their decision entirely on the candidates looks, now, if someone is so politically ignorant they are just voting based on a beauty contest, that person, plain and simple does not deserve a say in who becomes POTUS. Call it unConstitutional of me to say, but, seriously, how can you defend that kind of stupidity? I mean, I would rather they pick their candidate entirely at random than based on their vanity. Get a dartboard, write the names of candidates on little slips of paper and put them on there, then throw a dart, it's at least more logical than a pageant.
I think people who don't support Paul, or someone with similar views, is not only politically ignorant, but ignorant to human behavior period. I don't understand what makes people think that it is okay to have 545 people make decisions about businesses they are not a part of. I don't understand what makes people think it is okay to have 5 people in control of our money. I mean, these things worry me... These are things our government has no business meddling in, not only because it is unconstitutional, but because it has been proven time and time again that human behavior doesn't allow for the exercise of power for the 'good'. I know Tolkien said he wasn't writing an allegory when he wrote the Lord of the Rings, but I'm not sure there is a better metaphor for power. The one ring can't be used for good and it always corrupts the user, without fail. I'm starting to get tired of talking about politics .
My mom supports Ron Paul but is against his view on drugs and prostitution. I tried to explain that drugs and prostitution should be legal and it is unconstitutional to make them illegal. But of course, she let's a lot of her personal views affect her voting, like most Americans. Most people just don't understand what this country was started on and that our founding father warned us about what is happening to our country, and we are doing nothing about it. It's so sad...

Legalizing drugs would just take us to the early 1900s, when they were just legal and sold over the counter. Prostitution, same thing. It was rampant back in the day but what wasn't? Life was a lot harder back then. Both of these ideas are an exercise of liberty, indiviual freedom to pursue what they want to do, and if they make mistakes, they clean themselves up, not your moms tax dollars. Like I said, because she supports him, doesn't mean she has to "endorse" it. Its common sense to legalize drugs, the cartels are making millions and the drug war makes it worse. when it comes to me and prostitution, I could care less..TBH, its not like its going to affect me in my daily life.......neither it will your mother, its not like shell get prostitutes showing up on your lawn in the mornings When I get on my computer I will find a few vids of the good dr talking about personal freedoms, the free society principles, etc. sit her down and have her watch one of his speeches. I did the same with my father on almost each subject that affected him and like me he feels pauls the common mans candidate. Doesn't serve special interest, etc. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qz6MEU4_HFs[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0GZznxMC14[/ame] What are her main worries? Ask her what is she worried about when she hears "states rights to legalize drugs and prostitution"
woe woe owe... RP is in favor of legalizing prostitution????? Jeeebbus freeeaaaacking keeeyryst...he has my vote then! I've always wanted to be a whore... oh..wait a second...I know why the other candidates don't want prostitution legalized...most politicians don't want the competition... <super cereal> ok super cereal time. He really is the best choice this election...BUT I stand behind one very important thing, something that I am sure RP also believes in...that people should vote for whom they think is the best choice in their own opinion, even if I do not agree with the dumbasses that vote contrary to my choice. Voting isn't just a right, a privilege..it's your DUTY as an American Citizen, one of WE THE PEOPLE, to vote for whom you think is the best choice! </super cereal> I may joke and poke fun at RP a bit, (he is a politician after all....) but he is the least offensive and does the best song-n-dance routines (although he shouldn't wear those leotards, he has skinny legs) I never knew it...RP is a man after my own heart...who woulda thunk it... RP wants the people to be able to sell their own asses for personal gain...the others want to reserve that right for themselves, to sell your ass for their own profit. Seems easy enough to choose which way I'd prefer to live... DOWN WITH PIMPS! VOTE RON PAUL!
it really makes me sad. sad that people can be so brainwashed to think that non aggression, mutual trade and personal liberties are a danger to their lives.
