And how many of those people were paid off to spout those lies? All you need to do is listen to the deathbed confession of E. Howard Hunt.
And how many of those people were paid off to spout those lies? What makes you think they are lies? They were there, and we were not. Their stories match, and are supported by a wealth of other evidence. Sometimes the simplest solution is the correct one: the guy seen shooting at Kennedy is probably the one who shot him. All you need to do is listen to the deathbed confession of E. Howard Hunt. That's a joke, right? I mean, is there anyone from that era with less credibility? Can you name even one person involved in government during that era that was as corrupt and dirty (with the convictions and years of prison time to back it up) as Hunt? You could be right, of course (and I'm sure you'll agree that I could be right as well) but I love vigorous debate, and I have little doubt now about the JFK thing.
WHO exactly is the US that Ron Paul is with? Certainly not US who believe in Civil Rights! Certainly not US who believe in a woman controlling her own pregnancy! Certainly not US who believe gays have the right to marry! Certainly not US who believe in the total separation of Church & State! Certainly not US who believe that Reaganomics are "fuzzy math"! Certainly not US who believe that the "State's Rights" is code word for "return to White Elitism" and an excuse to keep from answering a question with a straight answer! Certainly not HIPPIES, who actually support this man -- one of RONALD "I HATE HIPPIES" REAGAN'S FAVORITE "LEADERS"! WTF??? They are ALL CAPITALIST PAWNS, but we must select the least worst or no one at all. I heard someone mention a "revolution" ? You mean RON PAUL, LOL!!! Yeah, like that REAGAN REVOLUTION, huh?
There are a lot more important matters, like how many of our rights have been suspended. If we continue doing what we are doing, we will eventually cease to be a democracy.
Recently, congress passed a bill called, 'Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_House_Resolution_1955). Please read about it, because I am sure that you won't like to see what this resolution REALLY means. This resolution is completely unconstitutional. Our current laws should be sufficient enough to deal with the problems that the resolutions seeks to fix, so it's completely useless, and it makes you wonder why it was created and passed. We can allow the KKK to rally, and speak their mind in public, yet we don't consider this homegrown terrorism. What would be considered as a violent ideology then? The whole point is that it isn't entirely clear on that, so it leaves room for great abuse.
You don't even have your facts straight. You just made yourself out to look like a complete ignoramus.... again. First of all, Ron Paul is a libertarian, so his whole ideology is based on civil rights. Freedom comes from having LESS government, not more government. Has history not shown that the bigger and more overbloated government and its controlling bureaucracies become, the more freedoms people lose? Ron Paul is personally against abortion (he's also delivered thousands of babies as an OB-GYN), but he believes it's a STATE'S RIGHT to decide. NOT the federal government's. This is the CONSTITUTIONAL WAY! Do you know what the Constitution is? Have you ever read it? Ron Paul DOES believe gays have the right to marry. Why? Because he believes the government has no role in marriage -- both gay and straight. Period. So how can he be against gay marriage if he wants the federal government out of marriage altogether? Paul says that marriage is a religious ceremony and not a political one. Therefore, the government should have no say in it, as it exists independently from government. Again, it all boils down to personal choice. Ron Paul DOES believe in the seperation of church and state, and if you actually knew anything about him, you would know that he's stated this numerous times. When Paul was on Fox News the other day, he was asked about the recent Mike Huckabee campaign ad, which features a bookcase in the background made to look like a cross. Paul quoted Sinclair Lewis, stating, "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and holding a cross." These are hardly words you would expect to hear from a theocrat, which Paul is not. If you knew anything about the Constitution -- which you obviously don't -- you would know that it's constitutional to NOT have the federal government meddling in what were always intended to be STATE'S rights. This is how you prevent the federal government from attaining too much power and becoming tyrannical. Or maybe you want tyranny? Now I know you probably like Hillary or some other Democrat fraud who are getting the bulk of their campaign money from corporate America and the Military-Industrial Complex. Ron Paul, however, is the only completely genuine person running for office, which is why the establishment is so afraid of him. It's why the media ignores him. It's funny how you're so uninformed and ignorant as to allude to something as ludicrous as Ron Paul being a "corporate pawn," when he's practically the only candidate not in the pocket of corporate America and the Military-Industrial Complex. Again, why do you think the media is ignoring him, when his popularity is clearly contrary to what the media coverage he receives would lead someone to believe? Do you really think Hillary and Obama want to end this war? They might say they do, but establishment puppets will say ANYTHING to get elected. You've been DUPED.... again!
You sound like my mom, who would vote for Hitler if he ran as a democrat. Have an open mind... he's clearly AGAINST the war.
Absolutely right, Pressed Rat-REAL libertarianism and civil rights means that people decide their own destiny and what's best for themselves, not the government-and that includes the issue of marriage. The sordid mess that is the 'family law' system in the U.S. is a disgrace to the world-people being put in jail for speaking to their own spouses, seeing their kids at the wrong time (or even seeing them at all)-these and countlesss other horrible injustices would simply end if the government's control over marriage and family ended. In the country where my ancestors came from, the government is completely uninvolved in family matters and marriage-it is a purely religious or personal issue, and very few people want to change that. Many people that consider themselves 'liberals' are horrified whenever someone says that the government should take in less money, and let people do what they want to do-"oh, no", they say, "the government won't be 'helping people' anymore!". Good. Look-if you are a 'liberal', consider this-the U.S. is the only industrialized country that doesn't have universal health care-even though we have by far the largest government budget on earth, we spend the majority of that money on the military and on police and judicial affairs regulating every aspect of our lives, and only a small portion of the budget goes toward 'helping' anyone. And, if you think any of the mainstream 'liberal' candidates want to upset this staus quo ante, you are very much mistaken. My basic civil liberties that were enshrined in the Constitution have been stepped on and totally ignored, and my life nearly ruined by a government that couldn't give a rat's ass about 'helping' me or anyone else. So, this is what I have to say to this government-please, please, PLEASE don't help me!!! Just leave me the fuck alone!!!!! If I'm still in this country by the time of the primaries (which I certainly hope to not be), I'll vote for Ron Paul-if not, good luck and God Bless You, Ron Paul-and goodbye and good riddance, U.S.of A.!!!!
I thought so too; at first, but then i looked at the facts. Ron Paul (R) PRO Anti Death penalty Anti Patriot Act Against Wiretapping Against Iraq War For Iraq Withdrawl Pro Marijuana Legalization CONS Anti Abortion Rights Anti Stem Cell Research Against Net Neutrality Against Universial Healthcare UNKNOWN Same Sex Marriage He's for taking women's rights away, against science that could find cures for cancer, against net neutrality (that means us!) and against health care for all. WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW???
Yeah, I hate the fact that Paul would rather legalize drugs than allow women to maintain their rights, but when I compare him to all the other candidates (except Kucinich) he's still the best one. Oh can you post your sources, btw? Thanks
I used to think Ron Paul seemed quite a good candidate. But from what i've read about his policies, such as anti-abortion, anti-stem cell research and anti-secularism (probably the most concerning of these policies) I feel he's just yet another politician using the 'Libertarian' label as a viel of deception. He's trying to simultaneously appeal to the extreme christian Right and libertarians. But obviously this is impossible and contradictory. If I were American I wouldn't vote for Ron Paul, because surely there are real libertarian candidates in America with less conflicting policies?
You are going to have to provide some sources here. You claim he is against net neutrality, which means he favors regulating the net. This is absolutely false and completely absurd. So if I am wrong, then I would like you to prove me wrong. After all, you are the one making these accusations against Paul. Also, I never heard Paul say he was anti stem cell research. He simply doesn't believe it should be subsidized by the Federal government. I never heard him say he wants to outlaw abortion, either, because it's a state's decision. (Read the Constitution.) Please cite your sources. I have the feeling some of you are simply regurgitating things you've heard other people say, without really doing any research for yourselves. Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate who is about the individuals's freedom of choice. I find it quite ironic that, when people see that Ron Paul is personally against abortion, they assume he wants to outlaw it. When they see he is a Christian, they assume he wants a theocracy. None of this is true, and if you knew anything about him at all -- other than for the few sentences worth of disinformation you read about him on some rinky-dink website -- you would know otherwise, and that none of what you're claiming is true.
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/837123/should_you_vote_for_ron_paul_satire/ hahahahaha,, i got a kick outta this...
2 minutes in, he adamantly spells out his view on abortion.he supports overturning roe v wade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQNWHmiGj-k&feature=user
But Roe vs. Wade is a FEDERAL ruling that has overturned state laws. Paul makes it clear that the decision regarding abortion is to be left up to the states, according to the Constitution. It makes sense that Paul would be against Roe vs. Wade because it overrides state laws.
