Ron Paul Launches Presidential Campaign, Tells Truth To Whoopi's View
Well, it's official: Ron Paul has launched his 2012 presidential campaign. Per the National Journal: "Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, whose outspoken libertarian views and folksy style made him a cult hero during two previous presidential campaigns, will announce on Tuesday that he's going to try a third time. Sources close to Paul, who is in his 12th term in the House, said he will unveil an exploratory presidential committee, a key step in gearing up for a White House race. He will also unveil the campaign’s leadership team in Iowa, where the first votes of the presidential election will be cast in caucuses next year."
More:
Paul, 75, ran as the Libertarian Party candidate in 1988, finishing with less than one half a percent of the vote. After more than a decade as a Republican congressman, Paul gave it another shot in the 2008 presidential election, gaining attention for being the only Republican candidate calling for the end to the war in Iraq and for his “money bomb” fundraising strategy, which brought in millions of dollars from online donors in single-day pushes.
Paul took 10 percent of the vote in the Iowa caucuses and 8 percent in New Hampshire’s primary. He finished second, with 14 percent of the vote, in the Nevada caucuses, and eventually finished fourth in the Republican nominating process with 5.6 percent of the total vote. Paul’s campaign book, The Revolution: A Manifesto also reached No. 1 on The New York Times best-seller list in 2008.
Unfortunately, with the ridiculous publicity stunt that is the parallel campaign of Trump, whose only redeeming feature is that he knows more about bankruptcy and nuisance value than any other human being alive, a feature that will come in very handy to the US over the next 5 years, it would appear that Paul's campaign has the usual snowball's chance in a corrupt 7th circle of hell... Which is sad, because Paul, with all his faults, really continues to be the only sane alternative to completel meltdown of this once great country.
That said, we hope Paul has more appearances such as this on The View, where he did not pander to his female hosts, and told the truth about many contentuous issues including the military industrial complex, planned parenthood, and the US outlook.
One piece of advice for Ron: stay away from Bruno please.

Someone tell Dr. Paul to stay the hell away from small aircraft.
stay the hell away from Derek Zoolander.
and for God's sake, stay out of hot tubs.
If there's a ZeroHedge hall of fame that comment should be in it Chaos. Kuddos man, that's some of the most clever, funny shit I've read in a long time.
The Onion reality. Coming soon to a banana republic near you.
If Dr. Paul does get the Presidency the Elites will simply make him the scapegoat instead of their puppet Obama.
Not if the elites lose control, TSHTF in 2012, and Ron Paul benefits from the rebound. 2012 will bring all the crazies out of the woodwork too; we'll party as the whole world burns. The harsher the crash, the fewer corrupt institutions will survive. The quicker the crash, the less time the NWO will have to exploit the crisis and consolidate power. Apocalypse Now!
I can see all of the past decade was leading up to this. The conservatives need to bleed in the gulags they cheered for. The liberals need to be ground into the dirt by the beaurocratic collectivists they cheered for. The conservatives need to see that the GOP is not serious about spending and small government. The liberals need to see that the Dems are not serious about peace and civil liberties. They must see that Red vs. Blue is a false choice, and the real choice (freedom vs. slavery) will never be given to us willingly. We have to pry our freedom out of the elites' cold, dead hands.
Funny, on Hannity tonight Sean kept pressing Ron Paul about what he would do to cut entitlements. Finally Dr. Paul said, "There will be an economic collapse before we can straighten out entitlements." How is that for some hardcore truth?
The President (whoever that might be), has to ride herd on around 535 "cats", which are busy hissing and spitting at each other while trying to keep their favorite oxen from being clawed -- hence economic collapse (The Great Implosion™) is inevitable!
Agreed, except I would have used "rats" instead of "cats". It is refreshing to hear a politician tell the truth, rather than blow smoke up your ass with more "how they are going to fix the problem".
535 cats; nice visual!
has my vote from everyone running so far.
The enemy of my enemies is a friend...you have my vote Mr. Paul.
Warning! Ron Paul bumper stickers put you on the Department of Homeland Security terror watchlist.
it's basically true, why junk that?
Warning! Ron Paul bumper stickers put you on the Department of Homeland Security terror watchlist.
Already on it. Seriously.
My son's mother was married to a Saudi national that I had to find (hired a private investigator) to get her divorced. Green card marriage. Then we were married and son born one month later.
Apparently that's some tactic used to by "those terrorists."
Every single time I have to show a passport, I am interrogated, searched and harrassed. They repeatedly ask: "Who is the child?" I repeatedly answer: "My 25 year old son...."
Every fucking time. Get's old, but I like to travel.
How about bill boards? Are bill boards ok?
God, I love that weird little old man.
Me too, but he better learn to boogey and appear on Dancing with the Stars or nobody but Borat will know who he is.
he wins by simply running. Kucinich is (was) the same way. Of course he's a gadfly--that's why we love him and would love Kucinich as well save for all his "Heil Hitler's" now ("I was for impeachment before I was against it!") Now "onto day 31 of our war in Libya....
I think he's the only guy that would effect a real change and do the right things. As I write he's on Hannity getting the stupid questions that do not get asked of others. They don't ever really hit his core large issues.
I will say from my conservative campaigner experience that the one thing I have against him is his supporters. I don't know why but they are the most intolerant people I've ever dealth with. It's sort of like they perceive themselves as the true believers and all others, including possibly allied conservatives are infidels. I am not sure how this happened or that it is nationwide. As a libertarian type conservative myself you should always welcome newcomers, supporters and those willing to listen and think about the message of liberty. Intolerance is only for the dedicated statists.
I hope he runs and some miracle gives him the lead but I am not optimistic. I hope his son, Rand has the same values.
That is unfortunate that they seemed overly righteous. Paul regulary sponsors third party cadidate debates from the entire spectrum. They might have a bias against straight ticket voters but thats as far as anyone should take it.
One thing I liked about them was their energy, commitment and zeal. I suspect that may be from where some of the intolerance eminated. I wondered if some were also hard core conspiracy theorists so anyone other than another well known RP supporter was suspect. The state party chair was a good friend of mine and not so inclined.
Unless you invite new people in as "members" or "allies" you will never win anything. That is the danger. You consign yourself to an eternal minor player.
Having said that, Paul is one of my top two or three choices for the Presidency.
Me too. He's the only candidate that I gave a donation the last time around.
If any one of us had to do the interviews he does we'd all come off as kooks. Having to explain the roots of how we got to this point all sounds conspiratorial and straight from the confines of a tin-foil hat. Sound bites just don't do it. The Fox interviews have, in the past, done nothing but attempt to make him sound loony. It could not turn out any other way. The poor guy has too broad a knowledge base talking to those who have none.
What I find particularly distressing is the way some of the talking heads (Bill O'rielly, for example) ask leading questions that require more than a 30 second response, then interrupt by saying "Well I don't need a history lesson."
Yes, Bill you do.
If he wins or looks like winning and delivers on what people believe he stands for , my only advice to him would be avoid Grassy Knolls. Good luck Ron, you're going up against some determined sociopaths.
Ditto for hot tubs and hunting trips with Cheney.
If he starts polling strongly there's undoubtedly a bullet with his name on it.
I'm sure he knows this.
He also knows that with that one bullet it would all come crashing down.
Ron Paul's death will be blamed on his jilted neo-nazi gay lover. It'll be all over the media 24/7 for months.
Physical assassination + character assassination. That's how things are done in this country.
You have no idea how deeply rooted the sociopathic genes are, among human doings. People will lie, cheat, and steal to get on the board of their rugrats' local Little League. Little Fucking League FFS!!!
Thats one of the reasons Ezekiel made it into the bible. There is a lot of redundant fire and brimstone in there, but some of the novel stuff is when he says: love, protect, raise your children properly. But don't think that you can rationalize evil just because you have kids and are trying to make things as good as possible for them.
Not a serious candidate (meaning no chance to win)... wish he'd just focus on getting rid of The Fed.
Ron will never win, but he may open more sheeple eyes to the depth of corruption in this dying empire.
FWIW Edit: I don't understand the junks, but let me clarify. I am a huge Ron fan for a very long time, at least a decade. Anyone linked to reality will understand he has ZERO chance of winning and I hope he does not because he would be dead. He is a brilliant and kind man that opened many eyes back in '08. He will do the same in '12. This empire is too far gone to save at this point. We need to hit the Ctrl-Alt-Delete and start over.
Ron will win.
he should make up some new party to filter out the infested tea baggers... call it the GOLD PARTY
another MSNBC drooler
what part of Taxed Enough Already do you not understand?
you missed the point dim wit... the tea party was legit for about 6 months and then the Palin attention whores took it over
Paul can make a new party and grab all the old core that started it.. but go ahead and keep thinking narrow.. you are in parts unknown to your experience
Ron will not win. He is mathematically unelectable. As for the upcoming election, think 1912 election, history is indeed repeating itself.
I gave a few hundred dollars last time. This time I have to agree with Jaw Knee. I'm kinda favoring ctrl-alt-delete. I'll still root for Paul of course, just more wary now.
I was a strong supporter and donor to Ron Paul's campaign in 2007-2008, but I will NOT give one penny nor lend any support to his presidential campaign this time around if, as looks likely, he uses the same screw-ups and saboteurs as campaign managers this time around, such as Jesse Benton and Kent Snyder. Those two, and others, undid almost ALL the hard work of many thousands of volunteers, and their repeated bungling and undermining of Ron Paul's last presidential campaign seemed almost too extreme to not be suspicious. Many, many volunteers and supporters last time were completely burned and betrayed by his national campaign staff, and they will NOT participate again under the same inept "leadership".
That man rocks.
Ron is going to split the Repbublican vote. 3rd time. Let's see obamas backers are Rons backers. RP hasn't done shit to stop Bush or Obama therefore is not worthy.
This guys another Perot.
Wtf. Can't the Homos in the GOP come up with someone better than Paul?
I'd go for Jingel anyday
Last I checked, he hasn't run as an independent.
The homos in the GOP will come up with somebody "better" than Ron Paul. Like Mitt Romney. He likes endless war and central banking. Or how about Mike Huckabee? He likes endless war and central banking. "Better" for the criminals on Wall Street and "better" for the criminals in the Pentagram.
Anyone for an Allen West/Rand Paul ticket?
No. Maybe Ron Paul/Allen West
As much as that would be ideal.. it's not reality. I think Allen and Rand would have a better shot.
If only Bill Clinton could run, the economy was sure good when he was POTUS.
((lol)
and we had Bobby Rubin at Treasury, right? sure glad he "saved the world" back then so we could enjoy this cluster-fuck
Rubin/Greenspan 2012.
by Jove... a ticket with cosmic ramifications; why didn't I think of dat? Bastards & their buddies could buy the position, hands down
how about Greenspan / Ayn Rand ticket??
I like Judge Napolitano.
Both are considered "Enablers" by the SPLC.
holy sh*t. SPLC sucks!!! i have heard the stories, but never looked for myself. that list is true insanity.
Dupe
From the "wonderful" SLPC:
Trip
Good luck to all you fellow Domestic Terrorists.
Allen West supports the PATRIOT Act, (voted to continue it) and therefore at a minimum seems to believe there is no need for the Fourth Amendment. Not sure but, my guess is Mr. West is not for ending our wars any time soon. Don't see Dr. Paul agreeing with Mr. West on much that's important.
allen west is another one of those zionist neocon bootlickers......
|^| This guy's another tard.
whoah Nellie, you are far too comfortable in your chains.
"One piece of advice for Ron: stay away from Bruno please."
So true.
He has bad timing. If he had announced yesterday, I would have maxed out my contribution for him. As it is, I will be sending $400 towards his efforts tomorrow.
I betcha he'll accept campaign contributions in silver and gold.
;-)
Ron Paul's candidacy will be huge like the Atlas Shrugged movie.
I saw the movie last week and loved it...Part I, anyway. I will go again and even donate to make the rest of them, if necessary. We need to send all of our little government-collectivist educated munchkins to see it.
if donald trump does run the debates will be very fun to watch. donald and the rest of the neocons wil get their ass handed to them by RP. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi1nxu-Sy-w
"I follow the Constitution and that is why I have to vote a "no" a lot." Well said.
They are going to kill this guy just like they did the Kennedys. I am surprised they haven't done it yet.
If they don't, it is because they will find a way to turn him into a terrible media mockery.
He announced his candidacy on 'the View'...'nuff said.
You didn't watch the clip. He didn't announce.
I don't blame you. I nearly puked having to see and hear that nappy headed bowling ball prop the POTUS while trying to get a bead on the honorable representative Dr. Paul.
He's a harmless tool.
If not Ron in 2012 Rand in in 2016.
Good luck Dr. Paul
GOP all the way, eh?
"Hooray for the Washington DC circle jerk!" cries ZeroHedge.
Look up the acronym RINO; quit being so narrow-minded!
that he went on the view blows my mind.. bizarre.
oh man, I was wondering what that popcorn popping sound was... millions of air headed women's heads exploding..
Oh fuck the spores are everywhere.
Well alot of the women watching might not be too educated on finance and politics, but they sure as hell know that america is in numerous wars at the moment and that those wars are probably pretty expensive to run.
He said he would end them all, I think that is a position that might get him more than a few votes from the views audience...
.
I think at this point it's just pissing into a hurricane, but he's got my vote.
Until at such time Tyler/s decide to run, he's got my vote. END.THE.FED!
"Warning! Ron Paul bumper stickers put you on the Department of Homeland Security terror watchlist."
Juvenile bullshit. Local law enforcement endorsement trumps any fed bullshit. How often do you get pulled over by homeland security? Believe me a Ron Paul sticker is a plus.
where i come from the local police dont take too kindly to lovers of freedom. when our state passed a law legalizing medical marijuana are sherrif laughed and said he wasnt going to take that law seroiusly. a couple of months later he puts a medical marijuana club owner just in jail to prove a point
They're called "fusion" centers. Their job is to integrate local and national law enforcement efforts. They pass information between agencies. The local Missouri Information Analysis Center listed "fringe" candidates such as Ron Paul stickers as an indication of dangerous intent and need of investigation. The info was passed out to local law enforcement with the expectation that action would be taken.

Who's more juvenile? Someone questioning something that doesn't smell right, or someone who dismisses facts to justify keeping their head in the sand. wake up and smell the police state sheeple. time is running out.
Thanks for the link, I'm going to put another sticker on my car so I have a matching set. Head is not in the sand though, and balls are in tact, how about yours? I won't be seeing you and the other fellas at the camp.
Yup. No police state problems anywhere. The MIAC report, the Florida Fusion center basically tracking the whole campaign for liberty, the interviews with former campaign volunteers being harassed by DHS and FBI. All made up correct? No worries with the Council of Governors, the DHS hiring Marcus Wolfe, the TSA putting "spy on your neighbor" messages in Wal-mart, DHS buying up coffins and every MRE on the planet, or the jillion martial law executive orders on the books. Seems everything is fine. Can't wait to see you at camp! It will be so fun, we can share a bowl of gruel and tell stories about the good old days when juvenile bullshit like free speech was allowed.
Looked into that MIAC thing. Thank goodness some folks with common sense responded like grownups instead of cowering. You probably won't bump into them at camp either. Ron Paul had more support from the military than any other candidate last cycle. Put on your big boy face and say something out loud supporting liberty in public, do it at walmart if you feel safe there. Just don't wait to whine in camp.
I agree that Ron Paul has great support from the military. I actually know quite a few military guys and they will probably be our saving grace. It's the police I'm worried about. The systematic recruiting and desensitizing of the police force is frightening. I promise you the best and brightest aren't being hired as cops. Sure one of the local deputies might be a good guy, but it sure seems the big city police departments are hiring to a very specific profile. There is also a very scary trend where the TPTB and media are demonizing ex-military. It actually makes me sick that our young men and women write a blank check for their life to uncle sam, that life is treated like a expendable pawn on a chess board, and then as soon as their duty is over, they classify the veteran as crazy and possibly deranged from battle. I'm sure more nebulous legislation like H.R. 2640 will be in their future.
And trust me I'm sure I'm on "the list".
Juvenile bullshit. Local law enforcement endorsement trumps any fed bullshit. How often do you get pulled over by homeland security? Believe me a Ron Paul sticker is a plus.
yes I understand what you're trying to say
but you're wrong in many cases, and the # is growing; especially in the cities
you haven't heard of fusion centers I take it, or the training emphasis given by the feds to local LE concerning "domestic terrorists"
I think you should look into things a bit more before you solidify that opinion of yours
Good luck to you sir.
It will be nice to watch the opposition squirm during the debates because they know he is telling the truth that is not supposed to be told.
And then they'll ignore him and move on.
I already voted for Ron Paul 2X (as a write in), but seriously, he has no chance:
A) he is not a willing sock puppet (AKA Obama et al)
B) He is a terrible public speaker.
You younger (post-MTV) folks might not recall, but there actually was a time when the most talented people were not fashion plates...that skill was actually more important than a good profile...no more.
Be sure to VOTE sheeple, that will fix everything.
Junk me? - LOL - what to you disagree with? that Obama is a sock puppet, that Ron Paul has no chance or that you post MTV generation don't know a pretty face from real talent?
BTW - I saw Justin Beiber at the resort I'm staying at in Nusa Dua last night (running with a towel wrapped around his head like an Arab)...Yeah he's real smart.
This:
Well, reasonable men can disagree, but I've seen him speak extemporaneously several times & he doesn't look focused or polished.
I've ALREADY VOTED for him in TWO presidential elections and will again...I'm just saying he is NOT electable in today's environment....by either the sheeple or TBTB.
Beiber 2012.
I'v e seen him speak several times - excellant speaker -connects with the audience like no one I've seen - nice to see someone speaking for an hour straight from the heart -with absolutely no notes or script.
Ron Paul has my vote.
Ron Paul is a great man. Not a snowball's chance in hell that the majority of the dumbasses that mindlessly roam our country wiil muster up 2 brain cells to vote for him.
Maybe its best for RP anyway...I would worry for his safety if he actually did get elected.
I have a rp sticker on the tailgate of my pickup. I lost my TV two years ago so I'm able to think about the candidates.
Interesting that the linked youtube video has a Bulgarian embedded default language. That's not the inherent setting. Wonder if one of the Tyler's is Bulgarian?

Here is why he won't win:

The sector group that spends the most on lobbying, also controls the auctions, that Americans like to think are elections.
It is interesting that he has moved from "fringe freak" to more "mainstream" acceptance without changing his views.
Don't know why you got junked. Great link - lobbying is on F.I.R.E.
Programmer under oath admits computers rig elections
Good to see you and Ruth around.
What we need to save us from the present economic crisis is an impish old man - racist to his core - who can't speak a lick or ask a halfway decent question of the Fed Chairmen without yammering on for 15 minutes.
Also, he has to believe in alCIAda stupidity and cannot say a word about taxing derivatives.
This unpopular on this thread, but unfortunately agreed. He not effective. He is in position to hold Fed hearings, have investigation. Where the fuck is he? Plus he's racist maybe older now and grown out of it like Strom, Byrd and Lott did. I'm leaning Mitch Daniels, hopefully someone comes along better. Like one of you guys on this blog will run.
downwithbanks, sadly, you know shit.
The best thing to do would be to pass laws restricting campaigning to 5 weeks. Make them visit each state, and they have to actually spend that time talking to normal people, not power brokers. About time these fucks started actually working for a living.
No fancy airplanes or media budgets. You get a bus and some bumper stickers and your word.
Obummer would get lost trying t find all 57 states.
It's all too easy to get the USA confused with a Heinz™ bottle of Ketchup!
I'm positive he's doing this to educate people, and not because of a belief he can win.
I went to see him speak late in the last campaign, and managed to get lost in the hotel hosting the event, and went to the empty hotel lobby to get directions. After getting them, I turned around, and there he was, and we ended up having a nice 5-10 minute chat before his speech. To say he was aware that he was being undermined by the media and cut out of the debates would be a huge understatement; he acknowledged that he expected to get the fringe candidate treatment, but was stunned at how blatant it was. I can't honestly think given that history he went in for the upcoming race with high hopes.
It's interesting that virtually his entire speech was regarding the loss of direction in the country and emphasizing efforts to recapture freedoms; I am sure he's running to wake more people up and put pressure on the TPTB, and if nothing else force competing candidates to adopt part of his pro-freedom platform in order to capture votes.
Love you Ron Paul! You got my vote.
Love you Ron Paul! You got my vote.
Sorry, you only get one vote. As far as I know.
He's received my write-in vote for President for each of the last 4 elections. It is my fervent wish that his name will be already printed on the ballot.
They'll push him out by way of some shennanigans then declare defacing a ballot a domestic terrorist act.
Correction: last three. I voted for Harry Browne in '96.
I liked Harry Browne very much. He was a good man.
I just bought two books written by Harry Browne in the 70's. The guy was a freakin genius. Anyone who followed his recommendations back then made a killing in PM's and currency trades. Yours, Maverick
Andrew "No Bank" Jackson lives on.He won't win,but his efforts will help educate people who otherwise would not get to hear the truth.
While I agree with Ron Paul on many issues, the fact is he has no chance in this rigged game! Take a look around the sheeple are clueless and can't think for themselves. The BS MSM will run him through the ringer and the idiots sitting on their couch will buy it hook line and sinker! BTW any President that fights the bank usually ends up at the wrong end of a gun!
Ron Paul is all blather and no action. Has anyone here ever seen him question Bernanke ? He blathers on and on about gold-backed currency but never asks the Fed any hard questions, nor does he ever follow up any question with more specific questions. Really, he's just pathetic.
While there's no one going to run that I'd vote for, I sure don't think RP will be effective at abolishing or at the very least exposing the Fed's illegal actions. Wake me up when RP talks about prosecuting the Fed chairsatan for his blatantly illegal actions, or for that matter talks about prosecuting Wall Street.
Yep: he's the Republican equivalent of Dennis Kucinich - talks a good game until it's time to actually do something.
Then he's impotent.
But hey, he's in the John Birch Society. He'll have the racist vote locked up!
"He'll have the racist vote locked up!"
Don't be so sure, 99% of blacks will go Barry O again.
LMAO!
Oh God, its funny cause its true.
asshole - are you one of those Denninger idiots who voted for Obama? Denninger -what an assclown -hates Ron paul as if he were Joseph Stalin -and then votes for Obama. How can anyone follow that idiot ?
yeh we all heard what was going to happen when the repubs got back control of the finance committee. well still waiting.
Considering he's one of very few with the balls to say anything at all I give him credit. But that he calls the FRNs counterfeit and was the one screaming "Monetizing the Debt" and has been trying to get the defict in order and social security and medicare fixed as well as wars and...perhaps they've just been giving him too many fronts to fight on.
The fortitude and stamina it must take to fight the system for as long as he has and at his age is an accomplishment alone.
But better to tear into to get him to do more since he's done so little.
Even if he tried to prosecute someone who'd have his back? Who'd stick their political neck out?
One man alone can only do so much.
Betcha can't tell us who else was on any one of those committees, let alone anything they said. No fair Googling it. Funny how you recall what Dr. Paul had to say. You are right, that's what he does. Because nobody else will.
The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation. -- Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Vote Ron Paul, huh.
Tough shit I already did.
That fool's so bad he don't even have to run to get my vote.
That's a big 10-4/fuckyou to the bank rapist circle jerk social political peckersniffs out there known as DNC and GOP.
Ron Paul is a REPUBLICAN. Has been for a long time.
Not sure if you know that.
Oooh, alert the press. That's not news.
he better not try that internet money bomb idea anymore. too many people feel they got burned last time. controlled opposition will probably run paul and bring in jesse for his vp candidate, then they will also run trump as well. this will dilute the vote. everyone should not vote though in my opinion. the game is rigged and , the game is over...and has been for a long time.
And on Easter to boot. Best of luck, Ron, don't live in the US, so can't vote, but will send the positive vibes across the pond for you.
this man is definately NOT getting my vote. There is no Old America, and life doesnt move backwards. The system has to die before things can change, and its only going to happen by some one making real change, or self-destruction. And I am opting for number 2. So i am voting for Trump!
3 cheers for bankruptcy.
a vote for Trump in this election
is the same as a vote for Obama in the last one-
cast by a moron
Let's see if he really audits the Fed. I think he is a paper tiger.
Yep. He's around to suck-off votes from those on the verge of leaving the 2-party circle jerk behind.
Looks like he's got the ZeroHedgers punked ... hard core.
he likes to sell books
Ron Paul Bitchez!
He has my vote and my $$
why doesn't he talk about the dancing israelis in new jersey on 911? why , because if he did, he would be back in friendswood so fast, it would make his masonic head spin..........
Yep - in 2008 the 911 Truth crowd bought what he was selling, only to be slapped in the face.
ZeroHedgers are already lining up to be the GOP's useful idiots of 2012.
All you haters of mainstream politicians: don't forget to register as a GOP member! Ha ha ha!
yep the 911truth community got dissed by paul. will they go for him again? not sure. nobody wants help them. nobody.
Cynthia McKinney has the backs of those who refuse to believe the government fairy tale, she went to Gaza in support of Palestine, and she hates the banker-gangsters with every fiber of her being.
Try getting Whiteboys to vote for her, though! Society is just too racist, and too sexist.
that is why she no longer is in office. they got rid of her..........she seems to know the score. at this stage though she is a non issue, politically speaking.
No more a non-issue than Paul. She'll run again in 2012 - not as a Democrat or a Republican.
Which makes her a better choice than a 200 year old KKK member.
The "truthers" glommed onto Ron Paul even though he consistently said that he does not believe in their conspiracy theories. He called their theories "preposterous." But the "truthers" continued to say that Ron Paul was one of them. Now they finally realize that he meant it when he said that 9/11 was a result of foreign blowback for US interventions overseas.
Only a "truther" could be flummoxed by an honest man speaking his mind. The "truther" problem with Ron Paul is one of their own creation.
How many 9/11 truthers are there really? Can they sway an election? There are more birthers. One issue people are complete idiots and the Left uses it consistently to divide. One of the primary reasons that Libertarians consistently get creamed is that they are a collection of 1-issue people...the Fed, taxes, second amendment, legalizing dope, etc., etc. They only go with a person who is 100% on their one issue and no one hits the one issue of all the subgroups.
I am one who's tired of RINO's, pseudo-conservatives and Democrat-lite candidates. However, I do not expect any one politicians to have 100% of my beliefs. I might favor decriminalizing pot but I'd give up that issue in a split second for someone who is correct on the economy, national debt, currency and de-collectivizing our government.
Paul is my number one guy while I would personally like to see Romney join the other party. I think at best he's a conservative Democrat. He would do well in a confused blue state like...mmmm...Massachusetts.
