IF RON PAUL WINS THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, I BELEIVE THAT HE WOULD NOT MAKE IT TO THE ELECTION.HE CAN IN FACT IMPLEMENT CHANGE THAT WOULD SET AMERICA BACK TOWARDS FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY.WE NEED MR. PAUL BUT WE CANNOT PROTECT HIM FROM THE POWERS THAT BE.GOD HELP US ALL.
Every candidate other than Ron Paul is unfit to lead this country at this desperate time in history! RON PAUL ALONE is true to his word, even if you disagree with some of his values. He won't be like the rest who flat out lie. My parents last civil act before their deaths was to vote for Obama. Every promise he made to my parents he betrayed! Ron is the honest candidate when he presents his goal to restore the dignity of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence.
Ron Paul falsely blame the poor, the workers, the "big" government, the welfare state rather than the rich and their big corporations and their corrupt politicians.
Ron Paul and his son Ran Paul are racists. They think that 95% of African American are semi-or-entirely 100% criminals. They are against civil right act of the 1960s
Ron Paul helped to are minusmen in Texas to go around shooting illegal immigrants.
Ron Paul is again hospitals providing services to patients who are illegals and he wants to revoke citizenship to American children with illegal immigrants as parents.
Ron Paul and the so called "libertarians" blame the poor for the missteps of the capitalism system. They think that giving absolute power to the rich all our problems will be solve.
Ron Paul wants to eliminate minimum wage, Occupational safety laws, anti-trust laws, Civil right act, environmental regulations, and other laws that provides defense to our society against the abusive power of capitalism.
I made reference to Rand Paul defending the right of private owned restaurant to discriminate as they wish. Look for that discussion he had with Rachael Maddow, it's a most see.
Workers and the poor will never see Ron Paul and his son defending them.
His son is even more confused with that "libertarian bs".
The so called Libertarian don't support civil right laws because they want to protect the right of private owner to discriminate as they wish. That is a mask for racism and absolutism for the high class.
Ron Paul and Rand Paul are no leader I admire at all. They are the worst of the Republican and Democrat parties together.
@platano1742 and you are anti-American since you speak ill of the candidate who gets more donations from active military personnel. btw anybody who plays the racist card discredits himself in this day and age (btw i'm hispanic)
Mr. Paul, stop saying corporations have rights as human beings; they are not.
The right of a corporation should not be compared to the right of one person. That's absurd.
Corporations don't get old as we do, they don't die as we do and they don't have feelings as we do. Corporations are there to pursuit profits at all cost, and they would destroy the environment if government doesn't enforces regulations to protect the river, for example.
Mr. Paul, society providing basic social services is not taking from the one who has to give to the one who does not have, as you say it. Social services provides basic needs to those who need it including you and your family, Mr. Paul. it's what makes us a civilized country.
The government is very good at many things Mr. Paul. And it could be better if politician like you stop blocking its ability to protect society. You and your son want to give absolute power to big corporations to do what ever they want as they pursuit profit. I want a big, huge government with lots and lots of regulations to prevent corporations from destroy the environment, other corporations, and society as we know it.
@platano1742 Your either ignorant or your a shill. Paul wants to end the FED, which would hurt alot of powerful corporations including the military industrial complex.
@jaeLAX23 Don't you ever confuse politics with religion belief. Just because my opinion on Ron Paul is contrary to yours, you should not insult me and call me names: Ron Paul is not GOD, nor he is your dad. He is just a politician.
Ron Paul is a right-wing politician with an extremely reactionary social and economy agenda. His participation in the national debate is actually harmful to workers, women, immigrants, African Americans and the poor in America. Read Prof. Noam Chomsky.
The government is very good delivering many thing, Mr. Paul. and it can be even better if politician like you stop defending big corporations like you do.
You, and your son, believe corporations should be allow to have more freedom to do what ever they want. You are against government regulations.
If you don't have regulations Corporations would destroy the environment, other corporations and society as we know it. That is because corporations only want to create profits.
PEOPLE NEED TO SWITCH PARTIES 12 WEEKS IN ADVANCE OF THE PRIMARIES IN MOST STATES.

TALIBAN STONES WOMEN TO DEATH, AMERICAN TROOPS ARE HEROES!
@darkshines00 No, I'm not a Sarah Palin fan, nor do I support anyone in the Republican party. They are all inept. When you grow up - you'll realise that Libertarianism is an archaic ideology where the most vulnerable in society are not protected. It would lead to higher crime rates, higher inequality, and would produce less third-level graduates. So the next time you call someone an idiot for buying into Ron Paul's policies - acknowledge that you're incapable of rational debate.
@darkshines00 I don't live in America. Once again, you're making stupid fucking assumptions. You're too immature to understand the concept of social democracy. There's no point in even debating it with you. Grow up.
@SeanOBriain Freeloading faggot shut the fuck up and go freeload of your parents instead of the government you parasite. Be a man make your own life stop depending on the government.
@SeanOBriain Yes, you're right, don't vote for Ron Paul, vote for another Zionist puppet that'll keep needlessly marching your fellow American's to their death with unnecessary wars. Why don't you just join the armed forces and go get you some 'Taliban'? I mean they're just savages, can barely read and write in their OWN language, but hey they somehow know how to operate "nukelar" weapons and fly planes into towers at 500 MPH that even trained airline pilots say "ain't easy". Ron Paul 2012!
@toolejitful This discussion seriously lacks critical thinking. Every single reply has assumed far too many things. Firstly, I'm not American. Nor do I support routine American intervention into internal conflicts of other nations. Nor am I a supporter of the Zionist movement - indeed, I have actively protested against it. Nor do I aspire to see any American soldiers needlessly give up their lives for a lost cause. I agree with many of Ron Paul's views, but I do not share his libertarian views.
@toolejitful But Ron Paul won't give it to them. Libertarianism does not work, and has never been shown to work. All it creates is mass social inequality. A libertarian society will have higher crime rates, social unrest and a less educated society.
@toolejitful Name one that has succeeded. It doesn't change the points I have addressed. Society would be unequal. Unless you are the type who doesn't believe in society - then you'll have to accept the negatives that go with it, such as high crime rates, low third-level education rates, and mass inequality and civil discontent.
@SeanOBriain I don't even know one that has tried it! That's why I'm asking you, do you know any countries that have a constitution similar to the US that have tried Libertarianism the way Ron Paul is talking about it?
RON PAUL, WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR AN ANSWER! TELL AMERICAN PEOPLE HOW EXACTLY RU GOING TO CREATE JOBS? OK LETS SAY ALL TROOPS CAME BACK AND THEN WHAT?

@deeppurple28 Obama also pledged to cut the debt in half by the end of his first term. Instead he okayed congress to spend over $2 trillion in bailout money. Under his watch the Fed also shelled out over 2 trillion in bailout money. I don't know if you're counting but thats $4 TRILLION!
Before you say we needed the bailouts or thousands would have lost jobs, that 4 trillion is enough to pay the 340 million Americans $11,764.70, or the <100,000 who would have lost jobs over $40 million each!

Tose who want to stay in power and strip americans of all our freedoms and rights wants us to divide up into "parties" so we have no strength in numbers to elect HONEST representatives like Ron Paul. Time to unite and stand up for freedom and decency. Whether a Democrat, Republican, please stand together to the criminals who OWN the allegience of most of our congressmen and senators. Do what the original patriots did.....UNITE and vote Ron Paul for president.
I can't believe America would vote for all these loosers and even plan on Obama again after 2 nightmare years. If the country don't wake up and elect Dr. Paul 2012 will truely be the end of the world. Imagine where we'll be with another 4 years of Obama or one of these other Rep. versions of him. Ron Paul 2012
@Kavenger11 That's religion, my friend. That's not politics anymore. No wonder why followers of the Paul's bs are willing to kick a woman already on the ground....
@Kavenger11 wow seriously? loser not looser. pants are loose & RP is a loser. + y wld u want Ron Paul?? we need some1 who can lie & continue a police state! we need 2 be safe & hes just gnna make things better not safer! we need some1 who will start wars preemtivly so they dont come here. & y do u want sound money? keep our dollar bad so we can get illegals out once they realize the dollar sux! & RP is for freedom, thats bad. cause its just bad & y have nukes if we cant use them? theyll expire!
I think this senile idiot forgot his history lessons! Hey moron, did you forget about the articles of Confederation already? Did you already forget why they failed? And you idiot, did you already forget about a little event called Shay's rebellion you moron? I'm sorry paulbots but Ron Paul is just a Bat Shit Crazy idiot.
@deeppurple28 So you learned in school that because of the incidents in Massachusetts called Shay's Rebellion the Articles of Confederation failed? Well Thomas Jefferson didn't think that, would you call him crazy? The AoC lead to the constitution, so I wouldn't say they failed, they were just re-written and expanded on. I think you're the one with the lack of historical understanding here.
@zxcv73 I didn't only use Shay's rebellion as an example! What I also question is whether any of you retarded paul bots know what the Articles of Confederation were? But I doubt that most of you idiots even know anyway! Which is one thing Ronnie the Senile idiot continues to ignore! But I really do wonder if Ronnie the Senile idiot remembers his history lessons about why The Articles of Confederation failed!?
@deeppurple28 From my understanding the biggest problem with the AoC was that the federal gov't couldnt enforce taxes which left the gov't bankrupt. It was replaced by the Constitution which allowed the gov't to impose taxes. Now what does this has to do with Ron at all? I know he wants income tax to be 0%, but the federal gov't still has other sources of taxation so it'll still collect money. So again what does this have to do with Ron? He wants the gov't back to the Constitution
@deeppurple28 Also Ron is against paper currency like todays dollar and the continental dollar of the AoC because it is very easy to just print more paper money and devalue a currency which is what happened under AoC and is happening today. The constitution specificly grants Congress the power to COIN money, not PRINT money. He wants a gold standard so our currency can't be devalued. So again, what does the AoC have to do with Ron Paul?
@mindthreat44 Yeah, and according to this clown the Gold Standard will save us ! Right? LMFAO ! Ron Paul is too senile, his ideas will not settle with the majority that's why he will NEVER be President! You really believe that the majority of Americans are going to simply agree with Ron Paul when he says that we Must cut public education and legalize all drugs? Ron Paul is wealthy so he and his family don't have to worry about those cuts, BUT The Average citizen DOES!
@deeppurple28 Ron's idea of the gold standard is a certificate that is as good as gold. So that it cannot inflate like the dollar. He also is pushing for competition between currencies to strengthen our currency no matter what it is.
Also Ron Paul has NEVER voted to increase taxes. He is for the average citizen keeping their own hard earned money.
He is against the war on drugs because we are wasting billions every year locking away drug addicts. We should know drugs are bad and not use them!
@sixt6mattstang Ronnie the senile idiot claims that government can't run anything. When exactly was it when he renounced his Government health care? You know the one he gets through Congress? LMFAO! Effing Paulbots crack me up!
@deeppurple28 Just because you are a government employee doesn't mean you have government run health care. You still have a private health care system but it is funded through government pay. Maybe you should stop assuming and start learning. He doesn't say the government can't run anything. What he does say is that the government has its hands in too much private business. It has also created private firms that have the authority of a government with no governmental controls(ie Fed, IRS, CIA)
@sixt6mattstang Ronnie the senile idiot seems to have an incredibly tough time distinguishing between what's good and what's bad! Just because the people who currently represent us are a joke, doesn't mean that Government is bad! Ronnie the Senile turd needs to Pull his old head out of his crusted ass and realize that Government is bad because we have a bunch of misfits representing us! Its like saying that an ak47 rifle is a piece of shit just because the idiot trying to shoot it cant! LMFAO!
@deeppurple28 So you're going to bash on the guy with no supporting evidence in this one? How about I give you some information. Ron paul has been consistent with his voting for over 3 decades. He wants to close all overseas military bases and bring all the troops home. This will free up billions of dollars in the defense budget without cutting pay to the troops.
Obama Voted to end the wars in Iraq and Afgan. We have not left either place and we have also invaded Libya and Pakistan!!!
@deeppurple28 actually most govt economy policies and institutions fail because they operate on Command and are funded by taxes, not supply and demand. since these entities exist within the economic sphere but, are insensitive to market forces they allocate and appropriate services and goods inefficiently. that's why most economist and economically inclined politicians (like "senile" ole paul here) are skeptical of the effectiveness of government agency.
Innovative? Give me a break! He says things people want to hear, but his free market advocacy is advocating completely unaccountable private corporations to crush the middle class, by continuously taking jobs overseas, abusing workers' rights.. He wants to extend Bush taxcuts to give 700 billion$ to the richest 1%. Why do u people think he's innovative, or interested in the wealth of the middle class? He's a phony Libertarian! Freedom for whom, you should ask! Freedom, only for the privileged!
@amajelo I would tell you to seek help for being liberal but you would probably ask the government to help. The mere fact that you call taxcuts "giving" money to the 1% is nonsense. Tax cuts give people BACK the money that was THEIRS in the first place. Ron Paul is talking about individual freedom. That means you have the same rights as the man with a billion dollars. The government TAKES your money, a corporation MAKES your money. So you choose to buy a product, you cant choose to pay a tax.
@amajelo Paul has held the same views for 30 years. His voting record is not in question. Please explain in detail how Ron Paul is a "phony" libertarian. What is your idea of a libertarian? I think you need to learn responsibility and stop running to the government to save you from corporations. Ron Paul would cut taxes which would INCREASE jobs in the US. The reason jobs are leaving is because of too much tax and regulation. Paul wants less of both so how do we lose jobs in that situation?
I totally agree with Rep. Paul. I love him and his message, and I don't wish anything but the best for him. However, Let's think about what he says in the first minute. No right to a house? He says keeping what you've earned, but how do we earn it? We have to do another's bidding ultimately. The work we do ultimately goes to furnish only a few people's ideas. We may not hate our jobs but we hate jobs in general that don't have to do with fighting our own causes...
Ron Paul, the government, the judiciary system, the arts, the media, the political parties, etc all these are part of this society. We all are part of these society. Society has to provide BASIC services for all of us; that's the advantage of not living in caves anymore. Demanding better housing, better health care system, transportation, education, recreation, etc is not stealing from the rich; It is being civilized, you fool. You want the Rich to have all, you are not fooling me, Ron Paul.
J. King, these are the questions you should asked R. Paul: Do you think we all have the same rights? The rich have more rights than the poor, right? When the USA was created did we all started with the same rights? Do we all have the same rights now? If we all never had the same rights why is it wrong to demand more right for those with less rights?
Because liberal idea only works if there are a general sense of tolerance, openness in the society.
Current USA has none of those. Liberal idea, under the current USA people / voters way of thinking, will be same as communism. Because American doesn't love each other, and Americans allow themselves to be brainwashed or at least provoked way too easily.
Forcing liberal ideas to get a big government, will NOT nets you basic education nor health care. It will just be more wars.
@garytcw Maybe you are confusing Soviet Russia with communism. If the USA ever becomes communist, it will be the era of Utopia of the world. Read about communism. Communism != Stalinist Socialism. (!= is the "different" sign). Communism is the supreme democratic and libertarian government.
@platano1742 I want big, huge government with lots of regulations and inspectors, and low enforcement to help us protect society and the environment from CORPORATIONS. This big government should also protect corporations from hurting other corporations as they only live to create profits at any cost.
An old man, a physician like Ron Paul should not be defending the rich and their corporations as he does.
...as a "believer of individual liberties" What a demagogue!
Who has more individual liberties a poor or a rich?
Do you think a poor father demanding better education for his child is asking the gov to take money from the honest hard working rich to give it to the lazy poor?
Ron Paul is a demagogue. There is no free market, and never will be free market. This is capitalism. The only people free to do what ever they want r the capitalists.
Mr. Paul show me a country with Free Market. You are a demagogue, you want more freedom for the capitalist such our blood.
@platano1742 I can't help you there. You said demagogue a couple of times but.....I am not seeing your point. Ron wants free markets, and says the same thing you do: that there currently is no such thing. The reason the capitalists you hate exist is because of central economic planning and the Fed. Which are both ideas Ron Paul stands opposed to. You are calling someone a demagogue while in agreement with them? Wha?
@exploitmankind He is a demagogue for there is not such thing as "free" market, and he knows it. Tell Ron and Rand Paul to show me a place where there is "Free Market"...then I take the Demagogue title off of them. They are just asking for more freedom for the Capitalists and their corporations to do what ever they want. No wonder why R.P defends BP and attack the Fed.
@platano1742: There is such a thing as a free market. There was even one in this country once upon time. Under the free market, GM and Chrysler have to file for bankruptcy or go out of business. People who do stupid shit with financial instruments they don't understand wind up living under fucking bridges. Sounds pretty equitable to me.
Thank god government was there to save the day. Can you say moral hazard? What the fuck did the Fed ever do for you that was so great anyway?
@garretth48 The government enforce the law that keeps us in peace in spite of our differences. Many of us are poor other are rich, others are blacks other are whithe, others are hispanich, others are crazy, etc.
The government as everything else needs improvements. Both the Pauls only want to give all the power to the capitalist so they can do what ever they want with the country. These two Pauls are nothing but Two Republicans pretending to be revolutionaries.
@platano1742 Ron Paul doesn't want to do away with the government, so spare me that straw man. Why do you give RP shit about his stance against the Fed? You talk all this liberal "populist" bullshit, do you realize that the federal reserve system came about as a result of collusion between the government and the absolute biggest of the big shot bankers? Read some history chief.
@garretth48@garretth48 We did not lost free market because we never had free market. All I'm telling you is that this "individual freedom" BS that R Paul talk about is demagogy. Every thing is produced in the country is a product of all of us. We live in society to make sure we all can have basic services. Demanding better schooling for our children, better mean of transportation, housing, health care, etc is not stilling from the rich as R Paul stay it. Ron Paul defend the rich.
@platano1742 : We lost the free market when the government got so big and got involved in so much that corporations and special interests realized they could lobby for special favors. Lobbyists are actually a side effect of unrestrained government, if you think about it.
@garretth48 We did not lost free market because we never had free market. All I'm telling you is that this "individual freedom" BS that R Paul talk about is demagogy. Every thing is produced in the country is a product of all of us. We live in society to make sure we all can have basic services. Demanding better schooling for our children, better mean of transportation, housing, health care, etc is not stilling from the rich as R Paul stay it. Ron Paul defend the rich.
Why did the Republicans have attach themselves to the Tea Party? The Tea Party was started under Ron Paul as a Libertarian / American Movement. Now it has been changed into a tool for the Republican Party and Ron Paul gets pushed out by Neo-Cons and RINO's.
I could literally listen to this man speak all day. I never get tired of hearing what he has to say. The Freedom Movement is growing at a rapid pace. We will win in 2012!!
What a different world we would have if Ron Paul was voted in back in 08, dont make the same mistake again Its time for REAL change! Because at the moment, the lunatics are running the asylum.
I do like this consistent principled man who stays on course and doesn't let temptation from a women ruin everything. I do like most of what he says and most of his platform, but I do have one question. If there is no income tax and you can have all your money, then I guess everyone working for the Government would be unemployed, as they are paid throught taxes. No taxes, no wages! This would change a whole lot in the country, but it would be interesting to see how things would work.
@zekfishathotmail - no dude it doesn't work like that...... we didn't have an income tax until 1913 and we still had a government. Hes not saying that there will be no taxes..... just not an income tax but there can be other forms of taxation. The constitution does not allow involuntary servitude so when someone else can claim your paycheck...... whether it is a %1 tax on you're income or it is %50 it doesn't matter. It is the definition of slavery if you can't keep what you make
@svkm1991 in ISLAM it is called ZAKAT. a mere 2.5% from a year long stagnant asset normally given by the rich citizens as a wages. as for the average & poor citizen they are exempted coz their income is solely for their day to day survival basis
@zekfishathotmail I don't know if you have heard of Debra Medina, but she wanted to get rid of the Property Tax in Texas and institute a higher sales tax. Americans no longer have a Right to Property either. We aren't as free as many sheople think.
If you love liberty and freedom Ron Paul can keep us there. Our current administration is not taking us in the direction of freedom. This man would get my vote even if he was 105! His age has no bearing on his ability to move our country out of debt, among other things. I love that he has more energy and passion than any politician to date!
all though ron paul is light years ahead of the competition it should be remembered that the very notion of capitalism delivering liberty is a mathematical fallacy. Capitalism is defined as the ability for individuals to own any form of capital. Capital is defined as means of production. So who ever has the most capital has the ability to produce more capital than anyone else. This inevitably will lead to an exponential cycle of stratification exaggeration and eventual oligarchy.
@lwanatt: Okay...but this is exactly the issue that the Framers ran into. After gaining independence, each state wanted to do things its way--we had tariff/tax issues between states, cross-border conflicts over where each state's authority began and ended...ergo the Founding Fathers put together a centralized government to help manage the direction of the Union, and from there sprang our Constitution/Bill of Rights. So, not understanding Dr. Paul's reasoning.
While I hear him talk about personal liberty, freedom, and free markets, I don't see what steps he proposes to begin systematic change. Or hear them. As for the Constitution, the first paragraph states that justice, domestic tranquility, common defense, promotion of general welfare for the citizenry, and to secure liberty are important..and for some reason, they (the forefathers) felt that a central government can do that. Mr. Paul doesn't. What would he recommend then?
@bigvirgotube basically he wants to dismantle the federal government and give the power back to the states, its a lot more about what he plans to undo than what he plans to do.
May the spirits of our forefathers live strong in our hearts and minds and guide our country back on the path to true Freedom. Americans are being condemned by it's own Government for expressing their Patriotism. One would think a Government should support it's Patriots. It's time to vote ALL incumbent politicians out of office in order to send a message that they, Still Work for US. God Bless American.
@TheFreedomly What is the system you have in Brazil? What is the system Ron Paul is promoting? Where have you seen the system Ron Paul is promoting?
Ron Paul is promoting no regulation for the capitalist so they can do what ever they want....just like BP had not regulation extracting oil from the golf...Is that what you want for Brazil? You are a fool
@platano1742 I have read and researching about Ron Pau's admistration there and i 've seen he has done too many for the US agaist too many congressmen, whom haven't done anything to bring happiness to the US citizens, so you need to research more and read more rather than crticising such comments, don't be moron!
Here in Brasil i know there're lot to do, unfortunately here is highlighted in kick back, bibre that politicians practice them.
@platano1742 Politics of Brazil takes place in a framework of a federal presidential representative democratic republic where as the president of Brazil is both head of state and head of government and of a multi party system Executive power is exercised by the government legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of the national congress the judiciary is independent of the executive and the legislative Brazil is divided into 27 states included the Federal district.
@otziftw matu4292 and judging by the way you attacked a simple typo you have not herd any solutions from him lol If I'm wrong please show me a video where he give a solution but if I'm right don't argue with logic and truth he is use a opportunity to gain supporters that is it
@matu4292 Your grammar does suck, absolutely. How old are you man? I think *you're* trying to be the opportunist here - Ron Paul's an easy guy to attack because he's different and becoming popular. Show me, however, a video where *anyone* has some Absolute Solution that will Solve Everything. That's not how politics, economics, or life works.

The so called Libertarian don't support civil right laws because they want to protect the right of private owner to discriminate as they wish. That is a mask for racism and absolutism for the high class.
Ron Paul and Rand Paul are no leader I admire at all. They are the worst of the Republican and Democrat parties together.

Mr. Paul, stop saying corporations have rights as human beings; they are not.
The right of a corporation should not be compared to the right of one person. That's absurd.
Corporations don't get old as we do, they don't die as we do and they don't have feelings as we do. Corporations are there to pursuit profits at all cost, and they would destroy the environment if government doesn't enforces regulations to protect the river, for example.

Mr. Paul, society providing basic social services is not taking from the one who has to give to the one who does not have, as you say it. Social services provides basic needs to those who need it including you and your family, Mr. Paul. it's what makes us a civilized country.

deeppurple28 9 months ago
@deeppurple28 From my understanding the biggest problem with the AoC was that the federal gov't couldnt enforce taxes which left the gov't bankrupt. It was replaced by the Constitution which allowed the gov't to impose taxes. Now what does this has to do with Ron at all? I know he wants income tax to be 0%, but the federal gov't still has other sources of taxation so it'll still collect money. So again what does this have to do with Ron? He wants the gov't back to the Constitution
mindthreat44 8 months ago
@deeppurple28 Also Ron is against paper currency like todays dollar and the continental dollar of the AoC because it is very easy to just print more paper money and devalue a currency which is what happened under AoC and is happening today. The constitution specificly grants Congress the power to COIN money, not PRINT money. He wants a gold standard so our currency can't be devalued. So again, what does the AoC have to do with Ron Paul?

If you love liberty and freedom Ron Paul can keep us there. Our current administration is not taking us in the direction of freedom. This man would get my vote even if he was 105! His age has no bearing on his ability to move our country out of debt, among other things. I love that he has more energy and passion than any politician to date!

all though ron paul is light years ahead of the competition it should be remembered that the very notion of capitalism delivering liberty is a mathematical fallacy. Capitalism is defined as the ability for individuals to own any form of capital. Capital is defined as means of production. So who ever has the most capital has the ability to produce more capital than anyone else. This inevitably will lead to an exponential cycle of stratification exaggeration and eventual oligarchy.

@lwanatt That's not possible because one person can not own everything.

@lwanatt: Okay...but this is exactly the issue that the Framers ran into. After gaining independence, each state wanted to do things its way--we had tariff/tax issues between states, cross-border conflicts over where each state's authority began and ended...ergo the Founding Fathers put together a centralized government to help manage the direction of the Union, and from there sprang our Constitution/Bill of Rights. So, not understanding Dr. Paul's reasoning.
Perhaps the true problem is us.

While I hear him talk about personal liberty, freedom, and free markets, I don't see what steps he proposes to begin systematic change. Or hear them. As for the Constitution, the first paragraph states that justice, domestic tranquility, common defense, promotion of general welfare for the citizenry, and to secure liberty are important..and for some reason, they (the forefathers) felt that a central government can do that. Mr. Paul doesn't. What would he recommend then?
bigvirgotube 1 year ago
@bigvirgotube basically he wants to dismantle the federal government and give the power back to the states, its a lot more about what he plans to undo than what he plans to do.

May the spirits of our forefathers live strong in our hearts and minds and guide our country back on the path to true Freedom. Americans are being condemned by it's own Government for expressing their Patriotism. One would think a Government should support it's Patriots. It's time to vote ALL incumbent politicians out of office in order to send a message that they, Still Work for US. God Bless American.

@TheFreedomly What is the system you have in Brazil? What is the system Ron Paul is promoting? Where have you seen the system Ron Paul is promoting?
Ron Paul is promoting no regulation for the capitalist so they can do what ever they want....just like BP had not regulation extracting oil from the golf...Is that what you want for Brazil? You are a fool

@platano1742 I have read and researching about Ron Pau's admistration there and i 've seen he has done too many for the US agaist too many congressmen, whom haven't done anything to bring happiness to the US citizens, so you need to research more and read more rather than crticising such comments, don't be moron!
Here in Brasil i know there're lot to do, unfortunately here is highlighted in kick back, bibre that politicians practice them.

matu4292 1 year ago
@matu4292 Your grammar does suck, absolutely. How old are you man? I think *you're* trying to be the opportunist here - Ron Paul's an easy guy to attack because he's different and becoming popular. Show me, however, a video where *anyone* has some Absolute Solution that will Solve Everything. That's not how politics, economics, or life works.
