Mitt Romney: I'd Vote Ron Paul Over Obama (12-28-11)

[tigerblood1993]

That's like saying he would vote for Ron Paul over himself.

[ChristianPhysicist]

@tigerblood1993 I will vote vote Mitt Romney in the General election, but if he doesn't win the GOP, then I will probably vote for Obama.

Romney = Conservative

Obama = liberal

I

[tigerblood1993]

@ChristianPhysicist Romney = Obama

[ChristianPhysicist]

@tigerblood1993 No, like I said, mitt Romney is a business conservative.

Obama is a liberal.

I will vote for Romney in the General election, but if Romney doesn't win the GOP, then I will vote for Obama. After all, I am a moderate Democrat.

[tigerblood1993]

@ChristianPhysicist They are on the same side.

[ChristianPhysicist]

@tigerblood1993 I am a moderate, would I even care even if it was true??

Noo

[tigerblood1993]

@ChristianPhysicist The only real differences are that one is black and the other is white and one is running as a republican and the other is running as a democrat.

[ChristianPhysicist]

@tigerblood1993 and I am a Mexican-American

Viva!!! Mexicanos por Romney!!! El es uno de nosotros.

el es Compa

[tigerblood1993]

@ChristianPhysicist That's awesome.

[ChristianPhysicist]

@tigerblood1993 Ron Paul doesn't just want to audit and end the Fed, but also to audit Ft. Knox's gold reserves, just in case someone replaced them with metal bars that are merely painted gold.

Is Gold in Fort Knox Real? Ron Paul Wants to Know

LOL LOL

[tigerblood1993]

@ChristianPhysicist Shoot I would like to know that also.

[Lrdvltr]

How does is this indecisive dimwit leading the polls? How many people has he paid off?? Stay in the private sector, you nor Obongo are fit for presidency!

[LoganStracci]

I'm not even American but if I were, I'd vote for Ron Paul ! I think his ideology is great from what I've seen and, LEGALIZE.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@LoganStracci Some of his ideologies are pretty great, notably his foreign policy of setting a good example to other countries rather than change them through war and sanctions. However, his economic ideology is whack. Sorry but we cant just leave the market alone. This whole situation today reminds me of the French Revolution. The bourgeois sit on their high horses and find more ways to make money. But the peasants are barely rebelling, theyre getting fat and falling into debt.

[brendanmcwilliams]

@parkerdinhwilliams15

His plan is to remove corporate influence from government policy. If the corporations and banks weren't getting bailed out (corporate socialism) when they do extremely greedy and risky things like derivative lending, hedging, and leverage investing.

Had we let the greediest companies that took part in these activities fail and the ones that were responsible take their places, we would be in a much better place.

[brendanmcwilliams]

@parkerdinhwilliams15

To understand what exactly happened with the economy and who was involved in the lucrative high risk deals that ended up crashing down around them, watch this unbiased video

/watch?v=qqUGoVez8xg

It has nothing to do with politics, but only tries to explain some of the principles of economics and what caused the crash.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams That I completely understand. But Im not so sure letting all the banks fail would have made the situation better today. It would have led another great depression, since millions of families would lose all their money placed in these banks and investment companies. In the end, the debt is higher than its ever been but more people are at work, so its better for the people as a whole... For now. I think the solution to the problems we face today is beyond the

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams power of the free market. Ron Paul talks about the free market almost like it can always fix itself. I think corporations should be taxed more, the CEOs paid what they actually deserve, and put all that money in the pockets of the employees. And stop making up wars to keep the military busy. The government should use that money to fund research for cleaner energy and medical advancements and affordable medicare (as in affordable to the government). 

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams Ron Paul is on my side when it comes to the military, this I like. But I also think his ideas on letting State governments make up all their own laws is foolish. State level government is useless and often leads to stupid laws being put through that represent the majority of the retard population and forgets the minorities. If you want smaller government, make state level just a branch of the federal.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams Also (sorry i could go on all day lol), get Congress out of the White House. They have proven to be completely useless, and insider trading has become practically a norm. Replace them with environmental scientists, innovative thinkers, intelligent economics and strategists. Get some younger, non-religious folks in there, these older men have an inability to bring about change. And audit audit audit AUDIT the shit out of everyone who has power.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams So really, the only solution is have large corporations that have a more horizontal management approach, giving power to the employees and taking it away from the executives. The executives are important and they work hard, no doubt, but they get paid too much, and that permits them to slack off cause they already have everything they will ever need. And, of course, the occasional audit couldn't hurt! ANYWAY loll have a nice day.

[brendanmcwilliams]

@parkerdinhwilliams15

Actually, banks are backed up by FDIC which is covered by the gov't. Most families don't have near the max amount they insure for.

The Fed and the 0 interest rate for so long has caused a frenzy of reckless, risky ventures by banks and big corporations. This shit needs to stop, or go bust and require the gov't to pay out FDIC insurance to Americans. Maybe that will help them learn to stop the reckless behavior and constant borrowing.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams Soooo do you agree with what I said or disagree? Understandably, the federal government caused much of this shit. Student loans are the next thing to burst in my opinion. Its sickening to think that "buy now pay later" is the mentality in every sector of the economy. Ron Paul is the best Repulican candidate hands down... But I just dont believe capitalism will work with today's goods and services being what they are. It only works for small businesses.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@brendanmcwilliams I think controlled-capitalism, inching near socialism, mixed with a stable, uncorruptable democracy is key to long-term economic success and a happier, more fulfilled population. Socialism has been proven not to work when under a dictatorship, but what about under a real democracy? That's something I would like to see in my lifetime. It could be a beautiful thing to see a whole population joining together, rather then constantly competing and isolating.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

No to Ron Paul and NOOOO to Mitt Romney. I also say no to the Democratic party. Honestly, most of Americas politicians are a little too old to be making decisions for a whole nation, and its about time they got young, intelligent, open-minded young adults in the White House.

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

@parkerdinhwilliams15 But only if they support your views right?

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep Most young adults do! There is a pattern of more liberal thought among the younger generation, although there is also a movement against it. I personally don't really understand why someone would want to be conservative... dont we want to evolve and learn from the mistakes of the past? It doesnt make sense to keep up the traditions that only harm progress. I.e the education system, the political system and the economic system. All need serious reform.

[parkerdinhwilliams15]

@parkerdinhwilliams15 Although a problem with our generation is most young adults really dont care... Instead of watching the news or reading the Economist, most people would rather watch tv or play videogames. Cant blame them, its pretty fun, but in this day and age, I think its about time we fought for a better world, considering how pollution is reaching new heights and the good jobs are becoming scarcer. That's just what I think. Ron Paul does not embody this at all.

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

@parkerdinhwilliams15 I'm GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep and I approve this comment 100% I thought you were going to go on a tea party type rant for second there.

[tjtomkins]

I think he's just saying it in the HOPE that Paul will do the same since Romney thinks he's the frontrunner & he knows he can't win without Paul's voter-base but Ron Paul is Ron Paul, he ain't gonna move his position to support ANY puppet.

Ron Paul 2012

[rbh014]

Ain't nobody gonna move Ron Paul in a direction that's "more productive," Mr. Romney.

[HeilLoki]

Mitt and Newt will vote Ron Paul!!! I like!

[DP3mo24hofosho]

@superluminalthought Wolf Blitzer gave Ron Paul a fair amount of time at the debates when he moderated. So we should actually thank Wolf, not bash him

[tjtomkins]

@superluminalthought

Seriously, comments like these are HURTING Ron, his campaign & his supporters so please refrain from such comments, you're hurting the ONLY man capable of changing things as they stand right now

Ron Paul 2012

[superluminalthought]

@tjtomkins, Deleted. 

[XJT1972X]

Wolf Blitzer.."and thats a big IF"....what a fuck

[skaterobban]

romney is a fuckin piece of shit... i cant stand looking at the scumbag

[hafizbinhussam]

Must Wolf always mention Israel ? WTF ? It's an American election, ask what Ron Paul should do for America, Netanjahu should worry about Israel !!!!

[MFINN23]

Proves that even politicians have more integrity than the media.

[HansBluejacket]

So Mitt...... are you saying it's a lesser of two evils sort of thing?? :O

[wodahsking]

@HansBluejacket go and die in a fire!

[burkey218]

Wolf is a piece of shit fuck you!!

[RichardRowell1]

@burkey218 Wolf blitzer is a miserable failure...

[itopsidoc]

not really a glowing endorsement when saying "Better than Obama"

[cooljj82]

Israel says that if Iran has a Nuclear weapon it wouldn't be a threat, why should we not beleive Israel?

[futer3669]

@cooljj82 Because Isreal is suppose to be our friend. But right know I don't think any country likes us right know. we interfer with to many countries.

[RyannRebel]

I think Newt and Mitt have a thing, did you hear how many times Romney mentioned Gingrich? It's adorable.

Ron Paul 2012

[burtonchalmersnumb1]

way to bring up Iran and Isreal Wolf. zionist fuck

[WeThePeopleVStheNWO]

I'm RACIST for criticizing Obama.

TERRORIST because I'm not with Bush.

ANTISEMITIC for not supporting Rothechild Zionism.

TEABAGGER for supporting the Constitution.

TRUTH-ER for asking unanswered questions.

TRAITOR for whistle-blowing on my corrupt Government.

CONSPIRACY THEORIST for presenting documented facts.

TROLL for uploading news, videos, quotes and U.S.Atrocities.

ANTI-AMERICAN for supporting Constitutionalists like Dr. Ron Paul.

RON PAUL 2012!

[hehefromhere]

everyone who have a heart likes ron paul in some way =)

[CommissarASSHOLE]

LOL...all the people on the stage better than Obama?

You mean Michele Bachmann the homophobic Iran-hating whore?

Rick Perry the forgetful fucktard?

Herman Cain the pervert?

Newt the Grinch?

I dislike Obama like no other for not being able to keep his campaign-promises, but seriously...all these shiteads (besides Ron Paul) are worthy of even running a strip-bar....

[ronquila]

@CommissarASSHOLE There is no country more homophobic than Iran. But I guess when muslims hang homosexuals, that doesn't count for you!

[futer3669]

@ronquila We should hang Faggots here.

[deadkornbread]

Big if??? Hahaha...ron paul 2012 the revolution has begun! Oh and fuck mitten romney..he is a liar a war monger a fraud.

[becij13]

hes a fuckin flat out bull shitter...you know hes guna flip when that choice comes....goldman sachs, his employer will decide his vote.

[007supertime]

always Israel nothing about if RON PAUL can do for America, are our president is choosen by what they can or can not do for Israel?

[zombie2093]

EVEN THEIR HOPING RON PAUL WINS HA!!

RON PAUL WOO 2012

[WorkBay]

Did Ron Paul ever say that Iran having a nuclear bomb would NOT represent a threat? This is such a sad mis-representation of Ron Paul's views. Wolf / CNN, you should hang your head in shame.

[jbiddleston]

Well done Mitt for saying and doing the right thing here!

[Samsgarden]

'be able to move him in a direction that's more productive'.

You and what army?

[mrkongmoua7]

Romney's a flip flopper, he will be Ron Paul's lil bitch once Paul gets the nomination cus you know he'll flip flop-

[TheChemkid]

@mrkongmoua7 You have no idea what you're talking about, maybe you should think before you talk. Research a little then make a reasonable comment.

[JesseKantstopolis]

Romney's been pretty respectful to Ron Paul this election.

[elitephpcoder]

@JesseKantstopolis Thats because he knows if he angers Pauls supporters which are vast, he will not beat Obama even if he wins the GOP nomination.

[ThirdRomeAquilo]

hahaha! watching these NeoCon Jews like wolf blitzer and their 'only israel matters' bullshit questions is the most entertaining shit. God they're the such slimy creatures.

Richard Nixon: "If we can win a second term, we might be able to do something about all these jews in DC"

[MrEmerye]

Mitt going to vote for Paul.. Hip hip horray !!!!! Ron Paul 2012. It is about time.

[healthhavencom]

Romney is as slick as it gets. If Ron Paul had Mitt's poise, game over.

[realtyworldsc]

Blitz is a jack ass! Obama is a terrible president-

[Tr33M4st3r]

Romney mentioned pushing Paul in a different direction...lol good luck

[faraway9222]

@VisualK3i94 Newt is a literally retarded, don't let his smooth talking cover that up. 

[healthhavencom]

@faraway9222 You might want to check our grammar before questioning someone's intelligence.

And yes, Newt's ideas are retarded.

[healthhavencom]

Make that "your grammer". How's that for irony?

[faraway9222]

@healthhavencom uh, zing? I wish your comment the best of luck, and i'll even give it a running start with a thumbs up of my own :) i learn engrish real goodly aiosdjlkdflkdsjfslkfdjfdskjldj­kl bleg

[zabdula]

I dont think Ron Paul said that if Iran had a nuclear weapon they wouldnt be a threat to Israel. He said Israel could take care of themselves and don't need the US to fight their battles for them. (Or something to that effect)

[joeplummer5432]

He's just trying to be seen as a loyal conservative, that's it.

[kensei85]

@joeplummer5432 yeah I don't get much of a pro-Ron Paul vibe!

[punchYourTv]

Romney's got a flip-flop in his mouth... those are nasty things.. This guy makes no sense. He is for big establishment, big government.. He wants to protect corporations more than the citizens of this country.

[komedykamikaze]

Woohooo!!!!! Romney and me gonna vote for Ron Paul 2012

[wodahsking]

@komedykamikaze LOL!

[kozak317]

lol, Romney is such a puss. Newt Gingrich also said that he would support anyone on the stage. So scared to say anything that would be his own. Another Bush-like politician who is terrible on camera without teleprompter. At least Gingrich has a thinker unlike this parrot who is trying to buy himself presidency for last 10 years

[RonPaulRepublic]

listen to AIPAC spokesman Wolf Blitzer getting the Israel influence in there

[dragnet53]

Wolf Blitzer worked for AIPAC. I wonder how he got a news anchor job?

[MrTitiez]

Ron's got this.

[timberwolves100]

IRAN MIGHT get a Nuke! Terrorists might attack us at any moment!

In the meantime sit back in fear and just sit back and let your Government protect you.

[Demalaxy]

Mitt's doing what he does best, kissing up to those he sees as pawns in his wish to obtain power. This is his beginning of the courtship he's going to try and play on the Ron Paul people. I don't think he'll find them easily sway-able.

[Michthemitch]

OBAMA 2012 !!!!!

[xoxashreexox]

I really hope most Americans really wake up and realize that Ron Paul would be the best chance they have to correct all the fuck ups of the last 10 years.

[MrTitiez]

@xoxashreexox Fuck-ups have been going on in the U.S. a lot longer than 10 years..

[nwbuf]

@MrTitiez true statement

[xoxashreexox]

No doubt but over 10 years ago I didn't care about america or terrorists or any of that stuff. I was more interested in jump rope, and hanging out at the park with my friends and not being american I wasn't taught the american issues over the years in school we learned fun facts about america but not the news or issues. Just was saying if the american government screws up any more, we're all going to be affected by it and I for one would like to maintain my freedoms and an economy that's stable.

[springjo1]

Ron Paul being better than Obama isn't saying much there aren't too many people out there who could be worst than Obama. However, I do think that Paul could make a good President and if he were to win the nomination I would vote for him.

[jbohler33]

@VisualK3i94 well said

[cozzbp]

@VisualK3i94 Seriously. Newt is very intelligent. Too bad he doesn't use that knowledge to help the country, he is a lying sack of shit.

[themeleed]

@cozzbp Newt actually isn't THAT bad- he opposes the federal reserve and recognizes that minimum wage drives unemployment and inflation.

[cozzbp]

@themeleed Well, I can agree that what he SAYS is great. The guy is smart, knows how to articulate himself, and I agree with most of what he says. It's what he has DONE in the past that goes against what he says. He is only saying it to get elected, and he was a terrible speaker of the house.

[XJT1972X]

@themeleed He doesnt oppose the FED, he just says to audit them, he just says this stuff to appease his supporters, I GUARANTEE YOU if newt wins , the FED wont be AUDITED.

[themeleed]

@XJT1972X yeah... In all honesty all of the others fail

[fourthtunz]

All CNN and wolf blitzed can do is keep slinging crap that has nothing to do with Ron Paul's real positions. IF iran ever got a nuke why would they launch it? Israel has over 300 nukes and I would think they would retaliate in a big way. The big powers over here want a new war really badly and Cnn and fox are their propaganda machines.

[SelfGoverned]

@fourthtunz GOOD POINTS :-) And the power elite OWN and control the MAIN airways! I don't know about CNN+ but FOX's Murdoch is a pro war, Neocon... backed by the Banking elites, in Europe, the US, etc... And Wolf Blitzer (like Gingrich and Murdoch) is another CFR member, I believe??? WST

[theeonionbagel]

HA Ron Paul has not said Iran with a nuke wouldn't represent a threat. He just wants to go about disposing of the threat differently. He wants to use some diplomacy for crying out loud. Can we just finally vote someone in serious for fighting for world peace?

[FLMirise]

Getting so tired of wolf. He is a paid political hack and doesn't represent anyone but his handlers

[fcspike]

I also think that Romney is trying to get Paul's supporters vote.. and truth is I would vote for him over Newt but regardless I will be voting for RP in this election no matter what.

[fcspike]

Newt is saying he wouldn't vote for Ron Paul.. Newt has stood with the dem's on a lot of stuff so why wouldn't he vote for Obama? Think about that for a sec.. He is one of the guys they are pushing and he wouldn't stand with the peoples choice over Obama? Ron Paul 2012!

[23deleah]

Mitt, Praise God! And I sincerely desire that you ought to have that opportunity; that is to VOTE FOR RON PAUL. Bless you, Mitt.

[militiaman62656]

He doesn't want to anger Paul supporters personally. He will have the Super PACs trash him, like he did with Newt. Our PAC, TheRevolutionPAC will have to kick Mitt in the teeth before it's over. If you have any disposable income, it would be nice to win this primary early. Win Iowa, roll into New Hampshire with the 'Big Mo-mentum', humiliate some contenders there, so they drop out, and keep the momentum going into South Carolina. Peace Ron Paul 2012

[sYuVaHh]

Ron Paul is a bit lacking with speech and leadership skills. Once he nails down charisma and leadership, he WILL be the perfect candidate.

[meatpole55]

@sYuVaHh ..i disagree...i think if Ron perfects speech and leadership skills he will be a POLITICIAN...we dont need a Politician president.....WE NEED A PEOPLE PRESIDENT!!!..AND AS OF NOW..THATS WHAT RON PAUL IS..

[LORDOFWARS8]

@sYuVaHh Only that "charisma and 10K suit leadership" does not solve issues...we need an everyday nerd who really thinks outside the box and does what he says as president!

[mrshawn16]

@sYuVaHh lol...look at vids of younger paul. especially that morton downy vid. rp is is a wise man with a level head on his shoulders. thats what we need. nice hair and a pretty smile wont cut it.

[McClarinJ]

Newt ain't so sure anymore, Mitt. Of course you didn't just have the crap beaten out of you by Ron Paul like Newt did. I think Newt is a might sore at Ron Paul and you might too when he starts taking you to task.

[ztSHOCK]

"Would you vote for Ron Paul even though he hates the Jews, our troops, and America in general?"

There. I boiled down and distilled the biased question into it's base format.

[guytano2005]

they make it sound like ron paul wants iran to nuke israel. thats what goes through peoples heads whenever these fucking assholes like wolf blitzer ask questions regarding that issue..nobody running for office in canada stated they wanted to attack iran, so i guess that means canadians are a bunch of jew hating, anti semitic, holocaust denying conspiracy nuts..which we are

[post105]

Listen to Wolf ask the loaded question - then Romney backs off right away... You can't say anything negative about Israel on National TV.

[sainegve]

RON PAUL! RON PAUL!RON PAUL 2012!!!

[certainlytruthful]

The fact is, and it's outrageous, that Mitt Romney believes that he will become a literal Mormon God and be given and rule his own kingdom/planet. No lie. The book CAN MITT ROMNEY SERVE TWO MASTERS will scare the pants off of you when you see what he really believes....you will question how any sane person could place this man in the highest office in the land.

[81onedeep]

romney and his wife look very plastic, they'd fit in great in washington

[DaFleegsta]

yeah hes only saying it for popularity.. plus he knows that sayng any GOP candidate is better than Obama would only increase his chance to win presidency IF we won the republican nomination.

[sublimefan421]

Romney 2012!!

[arka67]

@sublimefan421 Ron Paul 2012!!

[shaindaman13]

This has to be THE most dense line of redundant questioning I've heard so far from any of these CNN Fucktards. I mean, Goddamn! He answered you the first time Blitz, you Zionist, War mongering Knit wit.

[BrettKeaneDotCon]

That's bad news.Romney has a brain unlike Gingrich.He's gona be tough to beat.

[AnotherUselessNick]

"I believe we'd be able to move him into a direction that is more productive." - Let's hope the doesn't mean into the direction of the graveyard...

[shaindaman13]

@AnotherUselessNick They already thinking that and I'm seriously worried for Dr. Paul's safety. JFK, MLK, RFK, all talked about peace and moving humanity in a prosperous and ya see where they ended up. All lone gunman with no ties to anyone too if you're dumb enough to believe that?

[AnotherUselessNick]

@shaindaman13 Well, I don't think there would be a real point of harming Paul though. His message will continue to spread and to put pressure on the establishment regardless :)

[SelfGoverned]

@shaindaman13 But the DIFFERENCE this time... is there will be a REVOLT and MARCH ON D.C. and MASS MUTINY in ALL RANKS, if not a COUNTER SHOT+ at any remaining "establishment" candidate/s... If they OFF'D RON... then ALL HELL WOULD BREAK LOOSE, within months... Their (Neocons, Defense Industry, Mafia, Wall Street, to Central Banksters and Big Gov Socialsts) GAME... is about PLAYED OUT... Afterall, IT'S ALL GOING TO IMPLODE SOON, ANYWAY!!! :-) WST

[shaindaman13]

Hey Blitz, what part of I'd vote for Ron Paul over Barack Obama didn't you Understand?

[desmondj10]

wolf blitzer!

zionist much?!

[lgarvey1979]

Ron Paul would be the best president bar none.

[cfrb]

he is not sincere.. he will change his mind.. its just to jab at gingrich

[XulChris]

Romney is officially better than Gingrich. I know, not saying much, but still.

[MrDeathSmiles]

This absolutely blows my mind. I'm sure they'd do differently when they went to the ballot box. xD
