Ron Paul @ GOP Debate In Florida on 1/24/08 MSNBC

[o0xemas0o]

Republican candidates that don't suck lobbyist's dicks and serve the agendas of nepotism and bureaucracy in the state department don't go far.

I honestly don't even understand how there's still a republican party in the US. What century is this, seriously...

[smokelakes]

damn it it makes me angry he doesnt have a chance to win.

the fact that palin will probably get more votes then him is a crime

[unicorntaxi]

i'll never get tired of seeing Dr. Paul ask McCain a ridiculously hard and obscure question for the sole purpose of embarrassing him. Ron Paul 2012

[OKCMC5]

I'm not a political party person. But our country would be a helluva lot better off today if Ron Paul were President.

[Cypress77]

Why do you cut off his answers mid-sentence?

[kjsellers]

So the Rebublican nominee is someone who pretty much just said he has no idea what Ron Paul was talking about in terms of the economy and that he would just let all of his people handle it. Great! Sounds good John.

[dimonemon]

Here's a link, guys :: ronpaulbookbomb [DOT] com

P.S. Yes, I already pre-ordered my copy!

P.P.S. Let's make it happen!

[williamwagener]

Ron P A U L has a proven RECORD which backs what he says. Never voted for Tax increase. opposed the undeclared WAR would abolish the IRS and Fed. Reserve

Game now is to elect locals State Reps and Cong. who support

Ron Pauls positions, like Murray Sabine, N.J. for Senator

[TiffanyJean7]

Don't ya'll just get it. They all suck, every politician sucks, they lie, and tell you what they think you want to hear just to get into office, then they do just what they want. I wont vote because I think they all suck.

[guitmarc54]

A pleasure to listen to Ron Paul...He is so different from the conformist status quo. Well researched and even visionary pragmagmatic change, WE will all be better off..Lets take the military time out..Regroup, rethink. defend our borders second...trim departments third...less federal government..More States rights

check out Ron paul He makes big sense..CROSS OVER DEMOCRATS....Where R U.?

you got to be out there.C.D.s speak up. be heard...Make groups..hurry time is running out!ron paul

[IrreducibleParadox]

I doubt I'd vote republican if I was an American, but how come Ron Paul gets so outrun in the race for presidency? The other candidates come of as completely clueless in every exchange they have.

Instead it stands between Mr. "I don't know what the working group on financial markets is" Mccain. And that unmentionable man who thinks human ribs better than monkeys. Shallow reasoning, empty reasoning, maybe that's the winning strategy. It does say something of the world...

[allisonmarie33]

@guitmarc54 I'm a democrat and I support Ron Paul wholeheartedly. If he gets the republican nomination I will undoubtedly vote for him. If not, I'm voting democrat. There are quite a few democrats who are on board with this and if the GOP had any sense they'd nominate Ron Paul instead of trying repeatedly to cut him down.

[niffs75]

I only hope Ron Paul and Mitt stay in this until the convention, otherwise the media will attempt to push McCain down our throats, so a Democrat will be the next president.

[Lyndehouse]

Boy did you get it right

[jrrydha]

mcCain is just another bush, he supported almost every decision bush made, we really dont need another bush in office

[jimmytigg]

God...McCain is such a Jackass...he doesn't know shit about economics...he would further the industral military complex looting of our economy. All that man knows is war...he has too many close connections and allies inside of the industrial military complex.

[TheOneSpam]

i fixed it, check out the video reply

[sdarbro]

hey shaun hannity aka TheOneSpam quit cutting ron paul off in the middle of questions... annoying!

[david8639]

xdevonousx  its not dismissive if its true.

[gardentoolnumber5]

The next night, NBC Nightly News, had a report that all the GOP were for the war and that fact was going to make for a lively debate no matter who wins the GOP.

[xiola6969]

I love Mcain's response, I am just a dumb placeholder, The other guys are my brain. Sounds like George Bush part two. Screw that....

Ron Paul 120%, our voice is heard in America, It may take awhile to overturn 100 years of corruption and Special interests, It may take awhile to overturn 100 years of corptism and Specail intrests,

[elihalz]

Ron Paul speaks for me!!

[goofymommy]

come watch my cool videos plz :)

[UnitedOffensiveIII]

He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.

He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

VOTE RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT IN 2008

[VioletClub]

Wow, John McCain is full of crap. Try answering the question next time, genius.

[wtfoof]

Don't look at these Republican assholes and judge all Americans. More than 75% of us think the war was a big mistake and most of us Dems were aganist it before it started. I'm not talking about our politicans, I'm talking about the people.

[DillonX]

wow--- RON PAUL -- BRILLIANT AS ALWAYS!

He's just so much better than the other candidates -- especially John McInsane.

[pabface]

For being the most popular "Internet" candidate (esp. here on YouTube), you'd think a video or two of his would make it as a featured front page video.

\?/

[fredneck2009]

NH Primary:

+ Strong & Enthusiastic Base

+ Tons of Cash Coming In

+ Radio/TV/Mail Ads

+ Blimp

= 5th PLACE

WTF?! NO MORE MONEY RON!

[shinendeeneadie]

fredneck2008, you forgot:

NH Primary:

+Fraud

check out: watch?v=Ek2rXxFEzWI

[fredneck2009]

Great, another conspiracy theory.

[johndraam]

dude, fredneck. wake up. you sound incredibly naive.

[dawg098]

sorry, but ron paul isn't a white supremacist. Don't know where you received your info from but if you listen to the man you can tell he firmly believes that all men are equal.

[fredneck2009]

No he's not, but his campaign staff sucks balls.

The newsletters are old news and should have been dealt with by now. HQ sucks

[mutedmajority]

I notice that too, you can still get voter lists and do your own campaigning how you want.  They wouldn't give me any supplies ;(

[XDevonousX]

I really really like Ron Paul.

Or, I did, until I found out that he was a white supremacist.

Seriously. Look it up.

I still have the bubble next to his name filled in on my absentee ballot. The Republican Primary ballot that had it not been for Ron Paul would have been a democratic ballot.

Now, I'm just not gonna vote.

[instamentai]

he's actually not. the articles published in his newsletter were done so without his supervision.

[shinendeeneadie]

White supremist? Ding Dong your wrong. Where did you get your info? Please post..

[XDevonousX]

Shim Sham that dismissiveness reflects ignorance.

I get this info from an article called "Los Angeles Racial Terrorism" that he authored in 1993 or so, in which he calls blacks "crime prone", and "fleet footed". It can be found in full in various places on the internet.

I'd be more than happy if this isn't true.

[twcooler]

Have you ever done anything in your life that you can look back on and say say "I was part of that. I helped change our country for the better." This is the time! Help out with the Ron Paul campaighn. He is the most honest politician of our time.

[CitizenBrain]

For the simple fact that he's been labeled the taxpayers best friend ten times people should vote for him.

[nothingtoliveupto]

I'm not sure if this is true, but i read that only 30% of the people pay any taxes. Could be wrong, but i'm sure more than 30% get some sort of handouts!!!

[ki6eki]

noone pays "all" their taxes.. you can say.. everyone makes "black" money.

[nothingtoliveupto]

How is he not winning by a landslide? Oh yeah, people can't take care of themselves, I forgot.

[dibbya]

because he's insane

[nothingtoliveupto]

example? Oh yeah, there are none.

[nothingtoliveupto]

are you George Bush? You sound alot like him. LMAO

[JFG198]

Keep the Ron Paul blimp airborne!

Please go to ronpaulblimp.con and donate as much as you can. This is a great grassroots initiative that helps spread Dr. Paul's message.

Thank you for posting this!

[jeffsst]

LOl mecain almost had a braincramp trying to answer.

[rb333]

Impassioned final answer. I'll vote for him, even write him in if I have to. A vote throw-away on the best presidential candidate I have ever known.

[stevegreen65]

I just love their staple..."Will you run as a third party candidate?" These assholes know the answer to that question already. They keep asking him so they don't have to ask him real questions. The more this goes on the more pissed off I get and the more it steels my resolve to get Dr. Paul into office. The MSM are arrogant SOB's

[syszone]

I cant believe that US still have some good ppls there who love peace ... If i would be given chance i will Defiantly go for this Knowledgeable man called Ron Paul....men he is good... every time he speak you learn something ... and thats we call a leader... not the sitting chimpanzee in white house...

[Fixhist]

Try Musharaf for staging 911 and fooling the world in false "WAR on TERROR".

He is more danger than,Alqaida is blamed for.

send him to GTMO and send rest home.

[Steadno]

Paul=no chance!!

[worldrobots]

Maybe so. I guarantee, NO OTHER Republican can beat Hillary or OBAMA, and not even Edwards.

SO the next President WILL BE a Democrat.

Like Ron Paul said, we are heading into a NEW ERA.

I would say we're heading to HELL IN A HANDBASKET.

You watch.

[Steadno]

We already were w/Bush...

[EVIL1888]

USA=full of stupid people!!

[Steadno]

Evil 1888: USA=PC, MAC, WEB, CAR ETC!

[shinendeeneadie]

steadno..you forgot to add

Paul= truth

Paul= integrity

Paul= for the people

yeah, guess your are right, America isn't use to that kind of politician...

[Steadno]

Paul=got many tricked.

[shinendeeneadie]

steadno= no proof (if you find ANYTHING please post) :)

[Steadno]

He's a bigot w/a mask!

[shinendeeneadie]

Steadno....you state this because....your source please????

[Steadno]

Watch "Ron Paul on Meet The Press 12-23-07" here on YT.

[shinendeeneadie]

and you watch: Tim Russert exposed by Ron Paul, here on YT 12/26/07

[shinendeeneadie]

PS I think you need to watch Ron Paul on Meet the Press again...this time Listen to what he is Saying please.

[Steadno]

Did you watch it and see him speak against the union and liberty for all (blacks)?

[aimeechrister]

I love hearing this guy talk. He is so honest and sincere. Ron Paul is what this country needs. With the cabinet he puts into office he'll be able to take on the corporate thugs that are running our country now. And if anyone in Congress doesn't fall into line they can find their heads on the chopping block come next election. Revolution !!!

[sakdude9]

I agree somewhat with you..but uhm how is he going to attact the "corporate thugs" the way were doing that right is getting more of the government involved with these big corporations so they dont cheat us out. How does he plan to "take them on" when in his case they will be given free liberty to do whatever they hell they want. ie: enron (no government regulations on auditing)

[sakdude9]

[PhilipEbanks]

McCain spoke a "circle of people he developed over many years". Guess who else did that: Warren G. Harding, who we can all say was THE WORST president in the history of this country. Even though Graham and Rudman did do those tax cuts, McCain shouldn't get his friends into political jobs like Secretary of Treasury because corruption most likely manifests between close friends within the government. Ron Paul = The American People's champion.

[worldrobots]

Didn't McCain answer a question by saying that he is "knows economics." Like he's proficient, or something. THEN when he gets an economics question from Ron Paul...he chokes. And says "I rely heavily on blah blah blah" If you are an expert as you'd like the PUBLIC to believe...why rely so heavily on others? YOU SIR, ARE A CHARLATAN.

[buddafucker23]

We don't like the Republikan party.

Normaly I woulld't vote Democrate.

But Ron Paul is the exeption.

[caballo12345678]

on the head of that lol poor McCain, got anailated!!!

Ron Paul 2008

[buddafucker23]

Ron Paul Rules!

And I am a European democrate.

[americankid22]

whats a european democrate exactly. sorry but im only 14.

[McSoustenfrugal]

the only chance ron paul would have is if the country allowed third parties to have a competitive chance and if he ran as an independent. Republicans will never vote for someone who isn't finger banging a bible or at least fondling one.

[geronimo1918]

This video is all chopped up and we're not getting Ron Paul's full answers.

[JoeyV]

Ron Paul: straight forward and pure common sense!

[kus0mak]

McPain looked like a deer caught in the headlights as Dr. Paul asked him about the President's Working Group on the Economy. He clearly didn't have a clue and rambled on about nothing until his time ran out.

The answer to 1984 is Ron Paul in 2008!

[PaleRider32]

I love how none of the candidates had the guts to ask Ron Paul a question. It was obviously a smart strategic move on their part which served two purposes: one, to further ignore him and not draw any attention to him, and second, to just save themselves from being embarrassed.

[aln73]

too true, bet you he comes out on top on super tuesday

[gharo72]

don't u hate people who bragges about who they know more than who they are....

[kapatel]

Ron Paul, PLEASE, PLEASE run again in 2012 for the sake of America...

You are a REAL America.

[RobertRant]

Ron Paul says,"Here's the Truth," if you can handle it, vote for me, if you don't want the truth, vote for McCain or Clinton.

[Dtownsean]

McCain didnt have an answer so he he dredged up a bunch of names from the past and kept going further back. I thought he was gonna start talking about Abe Lincoln before it was over. But he never did answer the question! Except to say "i would do what other presidents before me have done" Dipshit had no idea what Paul was even talking about.

[wilfredsnipple]

McDick would rely on everyone else's opinion  before he could form his own=puppet.

[Turpy7777]

Whoever made this video get real...you have no real argument...what is more important than soldiers dying.

[TheOneSpam]

I'm not sure what you mean. I agree that war/death in Iraq is unprecedented and should be stopped.

Go Ron Paul.

[OneWorldOneChance]

I love, just love, how Mccain didn't answer Ron Paul's question, he just babbled and babbled, and no one even cared the question wasn't answered... WTF?

RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT!

[swishersweets2008]

after that debate we should call everyone on stage besides ron paul puppets or stupidity instead of the gop. mccain can officially now change his name to mcdummy.

[Ak4Crunk]

I think we should let Ron Paul speak for himself without having to stop the video to put in a little caption or comment. Thanks for the upload, it was quick, but I wish it was just a uncut video of Dr. Paul speaking.

[jagiar]

Can you believe this man? In a world of poor manners and abundant arrogance, Ron Paul manages not only to keep his dignity in the face of an obvious media tear down, but even manages to raise himself above the rest with with compassion and logic. I'm almost 40 and I have never witnessed a politician such as this in my lifetime.

[jagiar]

He is the ONLY person (male/female/black/white/green­) that I have ever seen that deserves to be the ruler of any nation. I would compare him to Gahndi but he was before my time so I can't be sure.

[gharo72]

for this reason he ll be dismissed and i hope he continue independently because he is above the party standards he is a true american

[sallyeastman]

Why is it that MSNBC cameras were trained upon Rudy so that they could catch every single unflattering eye-flutter and lip stretch that Rudy did? Folks, the big media has spoken.....Rudy is the next to go......after Florida there will be FOUR! Bye-bye Rudy............

[meeshgohns]

I's say put a Water Bong in front of all of them, and label it a Swedish Penis Enlarger. Then see who tries it on...lol...

[SunnyDaysRFun]

Sylvester Stalone is for McCain? Shzzz, the only thing I can think of is this; who got to Sly?

McCain and Hillary are floated by the news media.  Bad bad bad!!

[trufreedom87]

Shift Ron Paul has been saying the same thing for 20 years now.Every other candidate just speaks to what the people want to hear.Or in Romney's case whatever the person whispering to you is telling you to say!!

[brad462]

Wake up America. The elections are rigged its time to riot. Take your country back!

[Emb21]

On RP's social security response...I just completed my 2nd economics class and my professor was just saying the same thing!

[trufreedom87]

McCain looks like he has no idea what Ron is talking about becuase he doesn't,all he knows how to do is say what he thinks people want to hear.Oh by the way the surge isn't working!!!

[ShiftyOfEasy]

What do you think Ron Paul is saying? He is talking about abolishing Social Security, pulling the troops out. That sounds alot like what the people want to hear.

[easeofdisease]

theres a difference between believing in what the people stand for and not standing for anything just going with polls. paul was against the war when it wasn't what people wanted to hear for ex.

[astros4416]

Did you consider he was saying the same thing in 1988 about social security, did you even hear the question asked? Also, does it occur to you that he was never in support of the war, even when the people were not against it in 2003. He is the only one of those 5 that can make that claim. Seems as if he has kept the same views no matter what the people "want to hear."

[trufreedom87]

They are cheating in the primaries,check out the Louisianna caucus,Nevada Caucus,and the New Hampshire Primaries.

[gbovino]

What the heck is McCain rambling about?

[blackolive98]

Yeah. Ron Paul is the best I just wonder why he doesn't win inthe primaries.

[MyCountryOurCountry]

Last Night McCain was the Spin Master.

It became clear McCain was using Buzz words which for knowledgeable people mean nothing. He really had to put his 25 years in Congress learning and mastering the spin to work but to not avail. What he needs to do is to retire from Congress together with a bunch of

others so new ideas can flourish by the new young people that will take their place and with it allow our country to come together under the direction of our beloved Constitution.

[baudiirocz]

translation: McCain is not even aware what the "Presidents Working Group on Financial Markets" is. How is a man running for president unaware of something set in place in 1988. He literally does not know what Ron Paul is talking about. This is scary America. WAKE UP MCCAIN IS A PUPPET!!!!

[nomoss]

See the Glenn Beck- The Real Story, Touching the Third Rail on youtube.

Or Google it.

[salim201]

what is the presidents working group..? does ron paul want it abolished?

[ItsFazsha]

the working group is sometimes called the plunge protection team. The govt buys futures contracts to stop the stock market from collapsing. You and I pay to bail out rich investors under the pretext of "saving the market". Totally corrupt, and they won't admit it.

[diamondman007]

RON PAUL is a giant among ignorant lying criminals who will further destroy our nation, continue illegal wars, rape and pillage YOUR future with never-ending massive spending and taxation. RON PAUL, is the ONLY candidate not OWNED by the PENTAGON!

You have choice RON PAUL or Big Brother and a Fascist police-state that will continue to destroy your liberty!

[Ayanami0001]

Translation: Mccain doesn't know jack about the problems the lower and middle class face.

[BASSGUY01]

McCainiac, enough said.

Oh yes, vote Ron Paul or America will BE history!

[CrackerUppity]

That was a pretty weak response by McCain.

Ron Paul FTW!

[heyimericv]

McCain had no clue what Dr Paul asked.

[oneredspanky]

Nice point about what being a republican stands for, or used to anyways.

These other folks arent "conservative". Hell, theyre not even American for that matter. Fuck McCain and 'Israel first' lieberman.

Dual-citizenship has no place in American government. How about someone that puts Americas best interest first, second and third for a change.

Google USS Liberty.

Ron PAul 2008!

[mike6459]

when will this madness end and the masses wake up out of their stupor

[kmarkymark]

when people stop being brainwashed into passivaty and focusing on the important stuff like paris hiltons rat and those cute little shoes from some shop

[chaserehn]

Ron Paul is like a Greek God.

[MMadmike]

McCain had no clue what Dr Paul asked. Soo embarrassing.

[sundercloud]

He did know that Vladamir Putin was the president of Germany, though.

[wysiwyg248]

Thank you very much Mr. McCain, you are going to pass the buck as Mr. Romney indicated.

The process is not Leadership, it is another name for "I have no clue what your question was about"

[hewolfe]

I as president would rely on other people to do my job McCain says

[mytekool]

Go Dr. Paul!!

[Mwuhahahahamwu]

A bit over 7 minutes on a 90 minute debate. 5 candidates=18 minutes.. Subtracting time to ask questions, he still got less than HALF of equal time.

And don't forget we'd like to see more sunshine.

[rootbeerlord]

Awsome as always!!!!

[middlelb21]

He easily won the debate, and in the end the crowd erupted for him. Does it translate into votes? We'll see...go RP.

[MasterMakeupArtist]

I can listen to this man talk for hours on end!

[BillVancouver111]

Ron Paul has the only real solution to the economic problems facing the US now. He is gaining more and more upporters every day because he just makes sense to most people who learn about his ideas. Vote for Ron Paul......Thank you
