What's your favorite Ron Paul policy? Part II

[fudgedogbannana]

Liberty: getting government out of our personal lives, Tax reform: no taxation on personal income, abolish the IRS. Smaller government: wasteful bureaucracy. Foreign Policy: stop propping up dictators, bribing regimes, policing the world, wasteful military bases, defending foreign countries that are not threatened by anyone. Abide by the constitution of the US.

It would have been wonderful (you did a good job with what you had) to hear someone answer "I am voting for Ron Paul because I want to see my son alive again", because for so many, it is as simple as that. In fact it was telling a grandiose lie about just that subject that got Obama elected. Sure, plenty fell for him on health-care "reform", but most Obama voters just wanted their fucking kids back. Now they want their kids back, and their votes as well. He stole both from them.

[Cosmo1093]

Compare this to Obama supporters who say nothing but "I like the idea of change, but I don't know his policies." or "he's black, I'm black, its about time!" or "I want a 'free' ride through life!".. Sad thing is, in America, the stupid greatly outnumber the educated. Ron Paul 2012! (Only problem I can see is that he has a pretty good chance of dying in office from old age.. At least he'd likely pick a decent Vice President too!)

5:17 ... :-D

[MooseOfReason]

Why do they seem so much more educated than McCain and Obama supporters?

[Ehav4Ever]

I think it is because of the fact that people who are often more status quo types aren't really looking for specifics. They are looking for buzz words. People who vote for non status quo are often looking for something(s) more specific. Just my opinion, sorry 5 months late.

[MooseOfReason]

No problem. Thank you for answering my question.

[bartman1775]

write in ron paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[deviant24x]

I don't think that its surprising that a person who is supporting Ron Paul is able to make a video that reflects more favorably on his candidate.

[MooseOfReason]

Deviant, made a video that reflects favorably on Obama, with supporters of his explaining why they support him beyond "Change we need."

OK then answer the same question as pertaining to Obama. Any answer that you can give is that you want communism. any other answer would be dishonest or unintelligent.

[Drg0nzo1]

Wow, what a difference between these answers and the Obama video. At least some people are intelligent enough to understand the issues and how the government should function.

[Thenewguy812]

democracy at gun point good one

[durden0]

I'm a Ron Paul supporter, but this is a one sided series. The first series went down the beach and interviewed random everyday people. This video appears to be taken at a meetup group where all the people interviewed were activists. Kinda apples to oranges. Granted, I think if you went to an obama rally, you'd get mostly the same responses as you did in the first interview, but scientifically, I have to call this a misleading/inaccurate excersize.

[Lycanthrobby]

Hey, it's called editing. If you're making a video about a single candidate why would you keep the bits of people talking about other candidates. If you think activist make any kind of difference when it comes to substance check out the tea-baggers. Their activist and they're STILL STUPID.

[coffeeintheface]

Amazing. McCain supporters just mumble "the war" when asked what they like about him. Obama supporters don't even KNOW why they like him, and thus far it seems only Ron Paul supporters as a whole know their candidate inside and out.

[jayrod59]

Ron Paul people are smarter. Too bad that there aren't more of us.

[Claytrainor]

there will be, dont stop working.

perhaps in 2012 jesse ventura will run and we'll take back the white house.

[stopglobalswarming]

Ambush interviews don't help Pauls cause, but its real simple for me! Paul is endorsed by Gun Owners of America (the patriotic replacement for the deceptive NRA) and wants to end the zionist war in Iraq. He isn't perfect but I think he will pave the way for real revolution in America by enforcing the border and making Mexcrement rethink their challenge to America.

[Seiku]

Well so much for the criticism that all Ron Paul supporters are "young and inexperienced". :)

[BagOfEyebrows]

what a great group of patriots! excellent video - thanks for youtubing this.

[ShishakliAus]

Mmmmm... no income tax. I guess he'll have to pull out of Iraq if he can't afford to fund it eh?

Sheep...

[Magicguy15]

The War in Iraq is stupid!

[Reality301]

I like the 'getting the troops back from other countries' policy, as well as the legalization of drugs policy.

oh, and the whole government not being a corrupt international corporation feeding the people propaganda would be a plus too.

[6782485]

It is ironic that these people were EVER referred to as Paultards.

People who support Ron Paul are the Intelligensia of this country.

They are the most eloquent - most informed - most hopeful.

Keep up with these videos!

America needs an education!!!

[murphycline]

The sanity of an idea is not based upon its actual sanity, but how common it is within a group. So if you've been fed whackjob ideas all your life then sane ideas like the one Paul espouses are going to seem crazy to you, no matter how logical and correct they actually are. It's going to take a while for the ideas he supports to really sink in and begin to make sense, unfortunately.

[6782485]

Just planting seed of logic amongst the weeds.

Yes - it will take time and perserverance.

[swiftysmithuk]

Ron Paul cured my anti-Americanism

[sollycardy98]

this is so inspirational. All the idiots on the other video may be the majority, but changes have always been brought by the minority. If we can bring these people together we can defeat this corrupt system!!

[filter1971]

Great video! It's people like this that make me proud to still be an American. It's just a shame they are so few and far between. Check out google video and search for "SPIN". It's a great vid on how the media manipulates the brainwashed masses. Lots of behind the scenes conversations when they think the cameras are turned off.

THE GOVERNMENT BAKES IT

THE PRESS SERVES IT

THE PUBLIC EATS IT

[Somerled1]

Great video man!!! I'm down here in Bradenton, FL, more Ron Paul supporters here then I thought.

[chutubeme]

hahaha we ron supporters are smart :D

[irakaur]

Too bad we're not smart enough to figure out how to get all the dummies to vote for Ron Paul too.

[BrockTee]

Well you got to remeber the people actually running the show are not stupid. And they have one up on us because they know how to control stupid people. Ron Paul has giving us a group to work with. This is going to take some time.

[LumpyRevolution]

My God if I could give you front page on YouTube for that comment I would! You said it!

[LumpyRevolution]

... but seriously... any suggestions on how we can get all the stupid people to vote for Ron Paul?

[Voidka]

You don't need the stupid people to vote for Ron Paul because Ron Paul becoming president isn't key. Him becoming president would be fabulous, but ultimately people like in this video taking over the Republican party need to run for Congress and the Senate because thats key. Also, him becoming president without a like minded majority in Congress or the Senate could be extraordianrily bad.

[Voidka]

The reason it could be bad is that the Congress and Senate would block all his proposals. If this happens, then nothing will get done in Ron Paul's term resulting in him being blamed for all the problems. Potentially, it could prevent any individual who shares Ron Paul's views from becoming president again.

So, how many educated Ron Paul supporters plan on running for Congress or the Senate as a Republican? Thats what you guys should start thinking about. Thats a political movement.

[LumpyRevolution]

Well said. :)

[coffeeintheface]

Very VERY well-stated. Everyone needs to take heed to this advice. As for me, I'm a junior in college but a good part of me wants to run for something local soon after I'm done with school.

[LumpyRevolution]

I agree, but it sure would make me feel good if we were sane enough as a people, to get a real hero in not some "false god".

The CFR/Trilatteral/Elite watch dogs are watching us closely, we have to get ahead of them. It's not an easy task. Have you heard of the Free State Project?

[coffeeintheface]

Yeah unfortunately so much couldn't be done because of the lame Congress, but at least he'd be there to veto all the garbage bills like Real ID that would be pumped through.

[BrockTee]

Make sure you know your idea well enough to not come off as crazy. And learn how to win arguments against people who call you crazy. The best way to win against those people are to make them actually make a specific point rather than a blanket statement. They never can.

Plus Voidka makes the best point. Watch your local and state elections. Your vote and opinion has much more meaning at that level. The hard part is validating that someone is who they say they are.

[LumpyRevolution]

If it were easy it wouldn't be worth it.

I have my moments yet as I'm not yet in New Hampshire. The Free State Project is doing great things up there!
