Senator Ron Paul probably does have a piece in his pocket. And this skit demonstrates his excercision of his Right to Bear Arms promised in the US Constitution 2nd amendment. Tough as a Nail just like Old Hickory Andrew Jackson. Jackson got into his share of gun fights too from what I have heard.
That last line pretty much sums up not only Dr Paul's campaign, but his entire political career. "Ron Paul: not going anywhere. Ideologically consistent--and tough as nails." Brava to SNL for this!
Look at that like/dislike ratio! 777/ZERO! SNL just got bumped up my television ranking to above Fox, CSPAN, MSNBC, CBS, and any other network that acts like Paul does not exist :'D When SNL acknowledges him, and can't mock or satirize him, who can ignore him? SNL satirized every candidate in the preceding elections, but NOT PAUL! The R3VOLution is happening my friends, and Paul is the Next George Washington!
Israel's problem is as in the old testament when instead of turning to their God, they went and purchased an army to fight their battles. Sound familiar? And just as in the Old Testament, God will give them up to their enemies until they turn back to him. They continue to reject the living Lord Jesus.
Ron Paul resonates with most Americans that he can deliver is message to, as long as he can get it out there without the MSM stonewalling him or spinning him as a moonbat. I think he will simply have to pay for his own advertisements to get his message out.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
if ron paul's most vocal support base wasn't full of racists, paranoid fucktards, and others he would have a LOT more influence. serious respect for the guy though.
@kingsalamander123 I know, it's like those 9/111 concpiracy idiots don't know they are making him look bad, they are entitled to their opinions but not at the expense of Ron Paul's fucking campaign.
It's amazing the online World Wide support for this man, I'm right there.
But it blows me away how the American media always shows him as the loser and if you vote for him you are a loser is always the message.
I just watched an interview 2 days ago and RP finally took the gloves off and stated the establishment is crapping their pants about him it was so sweet to hear him say it as it was.
I Think SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE should be brought up on charges! This is an OUTRAGE!!! The PRODUCERS and WHO EVER WROTE THIS should be in jail!!! If anyone would would have produced this about OBAMA, it would be all over the news. This man is a PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE and this is not funny!!!
If it had been about Obama, those involved would simply be declared enemies and die.. he does that now .Power to summarily order executions of US citizens, precedent has been set with the long term pentagon tool ' alMalaki '
No, if it was Obama he would have bombed the innocent men, women, and children of whatever country they were from and then called it a humanitarian mission.
As I saw written somewhere.....this is typical of Ron Paul. There is a situation he finds himself in, looks to the Constitution for guidance, and uses the appropriate Amendment.....the Second.
@Iwubchickenwubbins leaving it to the states is a good thing. that means you only have to persuade your state to change its laws instead of the whole country....
@syiunshi And what does that do? the national policies are, for the most part, part of the least common denominator, in many provinces, and by many I mean in some cases all, rights shall still be trampled upon.
@Iwubchickenwubbins There is nothing such as a perfect person, he's going to have his own personal opinion on issues. Leaving the states up to the issue is how the country was intended to be to begin with., that's why we have states. That leaves the responsibility up to the people of said states so if anything goes wrong, they only have themselves to blame.
Anti-Abortion. Personal opinion, still believes federal law has no right on it so it's a non-issue.
@SpraxIAKS Unfortunately for minority groups such as immigrants, homosexuals, and transgendered people the majority of Americans are against their rights, giving it to the provinces doesn't do anything but likely hurt minorities in the long run. I applaud you for your stance on abortion though, whilst I take abortion on a case by case basis I agree that there shouldn't be any Federal laws against it, I'd take it a bit further personally though.
This will fix their wagon... RonPaulCommunications [dit ] com is the place to bring together ALL those who support OUR constitutions without compromise.... Just think of AmericansWithPitchforks {dit) com

Ron Paul or total economic collapse, then where will you and your children and their children be? Homeless, no job, no food, no money. Think about it.
The media not only ignores paul, but from time to time they try to make him look bad, and it never stops. i do not condone this, but i honestly believe the only way he would get real coverage is if we fucking riot or do something dramatic lol.
Don't you just love how the media from Fox to msnbc are in love with Romney and Perry. Even after last nights debate, Ron Paul was the only one talking about a balanced budget and serious cuts of up to $ 1 trillion and he asked anyone else on stage to do some serious cuts. They all went back like 2 year olds and fighting and could not answer Rons question. Even Independent voters i know were just shaking there heads and even they said, they all think it is 2008 and Ron will just go a way.
I do think this is very funny! SNL hits the mark again! But they hit the mark well which is how Ron Paul is doing on a national level...which is barely a blip ;). Lovable crazy kook, but he makes for fun soundbites and for shows like this, but Paul shouldve stayed in Congress where he could make a difference. Quitting just to get a message out and to run for a job he will never get wasnt the way to go IMO.
Search Open Secrets to find out where the candidates receive money from. Mitt Romney's top donor is Goldmann Sachs. This should worry anyone who knows anything about GS.
@dreamerinahammock How else can you raise 30 million dollars without having any support from the citizens....the people can give up to 2500 dollars but corporations and banks can fund any puppet candidate with an unlimited amount of money???!!!! Dont people see how dangerous this is. It amazes me, Perry gets 17 million dollars from oil companies he did favors for. Ron Paul receives 8 million dollars the 3rd quarter, 50% of it coming from the public in donations of less than $200. Ron Paul 2012!!
When Ron Paul wins a straw poll they say he bussed his supporters in. When Bacchman hands out thousands of tickets to a Randy Travis concert they act like that doenst need to be mentioned and she won because she is a front runner. The MSM is lying, just like they lied about WMD's. Of course the WMD lie was to get is into war, the Ron Paul lie is to keep is in war. Ron Paul is the only one that will end the war PERIOD. The other candidates are status quo war mongering Fed loving puppets
if you support Ron Paul's fight against the mainstream media and the corporations that own them, desperately clinging to the status quo, donate to RonPaul2012(dot)com on Wednesday, October 19th and tell the media to Black THIS Out! They are trying to tell us how to think and vote, and they are failing miserably this time around, because We the People have awoken, and We the People are running for the Presidency through Ron Paul to get our country back, because he is the only one we can trust.
@C4P1T4L15M Dont forget they are focusing on Herman Cain now as well. Thats because they are up in the polls. Paul has single digit ratings. His chances of winning are zero to none so I understand it. Hey I'm NOT saying it should be that way but you got 8 candidates, so naturally they will focus on the ones with the greater chance.
@fctiger74 All of the polls you see on the media are fake. Its the polls that they don't talk about are the real ones. For Example: Ron won the poll out in Calif. but no media responce to it. And he just won the values voter poll that also didn't get played alot on the media. Trust me, Ron is not in the single digits. Thats why the media is running out of options of who to build up. The media still thinks they are in 2008 and Ron will just go away. Not going to happen.
@rockytopfarm Well dude, that might all be true, but seriously you are talking marginalized polls at best. I really cant believe ALL the polls out there are 'fake'. No offense but this is the problem with the Ron Paul crowd and kind of come off like kooks themselves. There are no conspiracy theories, Paul has a lot of loyal support out there, but on a national level its minimum and why no chance of winning! Even if hes in the double digits, its very low. But he's better than that kook Bachmann.
@fctiger74 Most of the polls are fake. Just look at Iowa. The media said Romney was the clear front runner by polls that ( The media wanted you to see). going into Iowa but, when real voters polled Romney did the back stroke in Iowa. The polls showed by the media going into Iowa were not true. If you don't trust the media on facts why would you trust them on there polling?
@rockytopfarm Ok for argument sake lets say the polls are wrong. Are you trying to tell me on a NATIONAL level Ron Paul is really #1 or 2? I mean c'mon, even if you really believe they are flawed, its no way in hell Ron Paul is leading the pack eitherway. Its not about 'trusting the media', its about seeing him in the LAST election and seeing as supportive as his base is, there is a low ceiling there. Ron Paul can run 5 more times, he will finish about the same every time ;).
@fctiger74 My point is this. In 2008 the voter didn't really see the efects of the economy crash until it hit hard end of 2008. Today they are living with it. ( No job and no house) Rons message from 2002 - 2006 is being more understood of why he called for this warning. And you have the neocons trying to sound like Ron. But they can't get no traction because there past voting record don't match there talking point. Again, this isn't 2008 Ron is there. he has the media nervous.
@rockytopfarm I actually will agree with that! Yes, you have a point, but still no chance in hell of winning. I dont think the media is nervous lol. They only care about ratings. If Ron Paul got more than his hardcore interested in him and leading in the polls, he would have more exposure. I mean, how is the media 'scared' of him when he's on CNN, FOX and MSNBC every other day lol. The guy probably has a media room in his office hes on so much. And the repubs wont for him, no way in hell!
Guess it is all in how you define a win. Changing the course of the Republican party, winning. Framing the debate, winning. Increasing awareness and participation in the cause for liberty, winning. Charlie Sheen doesn't have shit on Ron Paul, you can check those facts as true right now. No need to wait six months. WINNING! Now where did I leave my glass of tiger's blood?
@fctiger74 Independent voters say different ( Fact) The only politician to call the economy crash correctly will help him win (Fact) The rest wish they backed Ron now on the calling of the crash ( Fact) They have nothing left ( Fact) Perry went to the Bidenburg meetings just like Obama ( Fact) Romney has Romney care ( Fact) Cain is in bed with the fed. Reserve ( Fact) Bachmann voted to extend the patriot act and worked with the I.R.S. to raise taxes on the people ( Fact) LOL
@rockytopfarm I think most people would consider a win if he won the nominee lol. I understand what you are saying, but he shouldve stayed in Congress if he wanted to keep making change! No chance as President of course, but I do agree, as I said all over this page he looks better than most of these clowns, but then again I'm not a Republican, nor will ever be one ;). Anyway, have a good day!
@fctiger74 The reason why he is not running again for congress is he wanted to try to put more money towards being the next president. Ron don't get boat loads of money from the big banks and the republican esablishment like Romney , Perry , Bacmann , Cain or Newt gets. The media don't like him and neither does his own party because he is not in there "click". Ron only gets money from his supporters. Obama also talks a good game of going against the big banks but, thats who put him in.
@rockytopfarm Again, thats fine. But Paul isnt stupid. He knows he has no chance in hell, never did. His ideas divide more people than unify them, THATS the problem! His supporters seem to think secretly the entire country thinks like them. They dont! Some issues, sure, but not all or even most for Paul. I will say it again, I have nothing against the man. He has the right to run as much as he wants, but the results will be the same every time. He stayed in Congress, he actually had influence.
@fctiger74 Again thats fine. Correct Paul isn't stupid. Here is where you are wrong along with the left and right media. Paul has 1 thing going for him that no other republican or democrat politician has. " The correct calling on the economy crash" . And the other republican candidates are trying to use Rons own words during the debates but they are not getting no traction. In another words, the media is running out of flavors of the week. Fox is back pushing Romney again. What a joke.
@rockytopfarm Again we'll see! But I don't know why Paul had to run for office he has little chances of winning when he couldve stayed in Congress and speaking on the same issues? I mean the the guy is on cable news, Sunday shows, etc WEEKLY! I mean I dont understand what is a 'media black out' when the guy is on the same shows he supposedly 'blacked out' every other day lol. These shows WANT him on, because he's interesting. But when he loses, he wont have that. Or maybe he will get a show lol.
@fctiger74 The media blackout is after every republican debate. Just had one on Cnn. All they could talk about on Cnn is the 3 puppets of Cain , Perry and Romney fighting like 2 year olds. Where people are worried about the economy and Ron was the ONLY one up there that said his plan would cut $ 1 trillion by going after the major issues. What was Cnn talking about? Even Independent voters see this. Then the media and people like yourself wonder how did Ron win the values voter summit poll
@fctiger74 Herman Cain poll numbers are a complete lie. The last CNN poll of 200 people , 116 or the people picked Cain. LOL But of course CNN wont tell you it was only 200 people and they hand picked the 200. They will use tricks like "Republicans Only Poll" so all they do is get 200 Republicans they want and then you can't say they lied. Ron Paul won a major straw poll 2 days before the last Bloomberg debate, but he was only asked 3 questions in 2 hours. LOL Its very obvious.
@Jahkillian Well first of alll, I wasnt referring to the CNN poll. And it was the Wall Street poll that put him ahead of Romney, not CNN IIRC. Anyway, the reality is no matter how you acess it, Paul isnt going to win. None, zero, zip! But cheer up, Cain isnt going to win either lol. I know that, but he is the flavor of the month until the Republicans get itchy again and go somewhere else. Anyway, it will most likely be Romney, everyone knows that! I like Paul, he keeps it interesting! ;)
@fctiger74 The Flip Flopping Mormon? Why do you think that? Is this your opinion or do you have some evidence of "Paul isn't going to win?"
Funny thing is I use to hear this same crap about Obama, and look what happened? All I heard was Hillery crap. Then she lost. So tell me what information you have which the rest of us idiots don't which validates your opinion? And the Wall Street poll is even worse. The Koch Brothers , former Fed chair puppet is in first with Wall Street.. lol
@Jahkillian LOL, I know he's not going to win about as sure as I knew he was goign to win in the last election! ;) He's in the single digits, no way in hell is going to climb above that. Those are really the only two pieces of evidence I need dude ;). And Obama was #2 behind Hillary. It was always close. Ron Paul is #5!! Or 6, depending which poll you read lol. Sorry, I know how much you supporters love the crazy kook, but he has about a chance of winning as I do! As you do! Sorry.
@fctiger74 Since you seem to be in the "know" then you must know that without Ron Paul, this country is doomed to reap what it has sowed, a financial crisis amidst straying from the founding principals found in our Constitution. Which can only lead to two things, a revolution that radically changes America or the enslavement of the American people to their debt and their leaders(banks and politicians).
@dreamerinahammock Yeah, I am in the know since its so obvious lol. He has about a good of chance of winning as the Federal Reserve being dissovlved tomorrow. Sorry to disaapoint you on two counts lol. I like Paul and SOME of his ideas, but he shouldve stayed in Congress!
@fctiger74 Hes 4th or 5th, dumbass. But lets look at Iowa and NH: where hes THIRD. He has the best organization for caucusing in Iowa, where supporter commitment is a great advantage. He almost won the straw poll and in 2007, he outperformed the straw poll. How long is hurriCain gonna blow? No one else is left in Iowa and when Paul wins it, its a whole new ballgame (Of course the media will compare it to Huckabee and says it means nothing LOL)
@kirby4d He can win Iowa, but he won't be the nominee, not by a long shot! Bachmann won the first straw poll, where is she now? And not trying to kill peoplds dreams here, I'm just stating the obvious. He has a lot of support and money though so he can hang on for a lot of the primaries just LIKE before...but that will be it!
@fctiger74 Every poll I see Ron Paul is 1 o 2. So what poll do you consider the holly grail and ignore all the others? But it doesn't matter. Your evidence is what the main stream media tells you.. Go figure.
@Jahkillian Yes I know the eviiiiiiiiil mainstream mainstream media lol. What polls do you see where Ron is #1 or 2 lol. Cite them!
He doesnt have a snowballs chance in hell. Neither do Santorum, Bachmann, Gindgrich and Huntsman. But he at least keeps it interesting! :) Seriously, no way he could win. Sorry.
@fctiger74 So your answer is "no because I said so?' If you don't have any facts or information to back up anything you say don't waste my time. Im also sorry, MSM always tells the truth everybody knows that..lol
@Jahkillian LOL, I gave you 'facts', you said it was all a lie, faked by the media, blah, blah, blah. Look, the only time you are wasting is thinking Ron Paul has a chance in hell lol. He doesnt! You guys will be bitterly dissappointed. Paul will never get more than the smaller primaries at best and then he will call it a day. I like Paul, but he's a sideshow nothing more! It will most likely be Romney or *shudder* Perry!
@fctiger74 What is your facts? Dude don't waste my time. You seem to have a crystal ball. I only asked you because you sound so sure of your self. I thought you had some information and evidence to support what you said. I didn't think your answer was going to be "Because the media told me he was low in polls" or "because I said so" So if you don't have any facts to support your statement, don't waste my time.
@Jahkillian You are correct on ( fctiger74) having no facts. What gets me is you have Bachmann , Romney , Perry and Newt all trying to use Ron Pauls talking points trying to get traction but there past voting records are not going to allow them to get traction and the media has to make it look good that Ron is not a threat. And the media is all over the place with these polls than they were for 2008 because they know Ron is a big threat for 2012 and they are very nervous.
@rockytopfarm Cain on PM CNN last night even started sounding like RP for awhile. What people don't understand is the polls are BS. The last CNN poll, for you to qualify, you had to be a white MALE over the age of 45, registered republican from last election. No women, no minorities, no young adults, and people like my self that just registered Repub, (only to vote for RP) couldn't participate. Then when they post the polls online, it says "Republicans only poll" LOL
@Jahkillian Look, I have nothing against Paul! Do I want him to win? God no lol!! Noooo, that would be a mistake. But I like him and I know he is passionate about his ideas and yes, if I had to choose between him and most of those Republican jokers, I would choose him, but its a joke the clowns running now. When the pizza man is ahead of everyone, that tells you the problems that party has. Look, if Ron Paul wants a chance, he should run as a 3rd party candidate. But being in that party, no way!
@rockytopfarm Yes, I have no 'facts' other than the fact the guy is in the single digits in the polls lol. I feel a little sorry for you guys, but I know people just want someone they believe in to win! I remember arguing with a guy on youtube a few years back over his candidate not winning, saying I was 'talking out of my ass' and that his candidate was going to win. I told him there was just no chance, sorry. The name of the candidate: Ron Paul lol! This was for 2008. Deja Vu once again! ;)
@Jahkillian I am sure of myself! ;) The facts are he's waaaay down in the polls, the one you people seem to ignore and dismiss lol. The fact is ALL the DNC campaign attack ads are against ROMNEY, not Paul! Even the other attack ads by other candidates are against Romney or even Perry, NOT Paul ;). Hell I saw Pauls ad attacking, but not a single ad attacking Paul, nor Gindgrich, Bachmann, Santorum or Huntsman. I mean why waste money attacking someone who has no chance in hell of winning ;).
@fctiger74 You seem to be clueless on evidence and facts. Me, "how do you know RP will not win?"
You," Because his down in the polls and none of the commercials attack him" WTF?? LOL
Maybe you mean, it will be hard for him to win, or he needs to poll better, but to say "I know for sure" means you have some little info the rest of us idiots including the other candidates don't have. Thats might point. You don't think he'll win, but there is no way for you to no for sure.
@Jahkillian LOL, what 'evidence' do you want? I know for sure because I have common sense lol. He has no chance! NONE!! Everyone knows this. Did you forget what this SNL skit was based on?
I tell you two things I can prove without any 'evidence': The sun will come up tomorrow and Ron Paul doesnt have a chance for the nominee. The first should be proved tomorrow...the other will be proven in January! Come back tomorrow and tell me I was wrong and then come back in January and do the same! ;)
@Jahkillian Oh ok! You dont like the 'I know for sure' he wont win, got it! Ok I agree, you are right, I dont know! I also dont know if America will go to war with Australia next year or if world hunger will end by December, but I have a strong feeling it wont just like I have a feeling Paul wont win. So lets put it that way! But true I could be wrong...Australia might strike us first! ;)
@Jahkillian LOL, did you watch the last debate? ;D
C'mon, you know what I'm saying. The odds of 2 friendly countries going to war will happen about as much as Paul being the nominee. But yes, if Australia pulls their people out of embassies and stock piling up on weapons and move warships closer to the shores...then yes, maybe its proof Paul has a chance in hell lol...and GREAT timing too, we're gonna need him! ;)
@fctiger74 "did you watch the last debate?" Wow dude, you're really media influenced. All your choices are mostly based on what media puts in your ears and eyes. Thats another reason why I support Ron Paul.
@Jahkillian WTF does THIS mean??? I was talking about the rumble in the jungle between Romney and Perry, nothing more! Jesus, get your freaky paranoia out of your head for a few minutes. I guess you missed the part where I ALSO said if I had to choose, I would probably pick Paul over most of those clowns, didnt you? Jesus, this is why talking to some of you people feel just as hopeless and kooky. But no, not a Republican and Paul has no chance either way!
@Jahkillian Oh and speaking of wasting someone time, you STILL havent shown me any polls that puts Paul in 1st or 2nd place dude. I asked you to cite them a day ago, so where are there?? So yeah, lets stop pretending I'm the one talking out of my ass! At least I have actual polls to back up my beliefs, whether you choose to believe them or not. So where are yours? And exactly why should I BELIVE those polls anyway exactly if I can't the MSM's? Oh let me guess, because Ron Paul is ahead lol.
@fctiger74 HOLY CRAP DUDE!! Are you serious. I NEVER MADE ANY GUARANTEE ANYBODY WAS GOING TO WIN YOU MADE THE CLAIM. I asked you what facts evidence do you have? I thought you had some info. "Google Polls Ron Paul won" Theres plenty, but that proves nothing. I never made any claim.. WTF? LOL
@Jahkillian LOL, where did I say YOU said was someone was going to win?? I didnt. I said you seem to think he's farther ahead in the polls, thus has a chance in hell. I'm saying you wrong, he doesnt! Savvy? ;)
But you said you had polls that showed Ron Paul in 1st or 2nd dude. I ask you to cite them! You havent! Right? What are we even talking about again lol.
@fctiger74 But this is very hard to explain to anybody that believes the polls are accurate. I'm sorry hand picked phone calls to WHITE MALE REPUBLICANS OVER 45 ONLY is not fare or accurate.
Did you know they manipulate the polls by calling the same people that voted Perry, or Romney, etc over again for the next poll. So the only way the numbers change is if those same voters changed there mine from the last poll. Or they can call all the RP votes numbers and RP would be number 1. Understand
@Jahkillian Look, no one is suggesting that polls are a foregone conclusion, just a general indicator of the present situation. Everyone knows this stuff has to be taken with a grain of salt, especially s oearly . There are some polls saying Obama will lose badly to an invisible Republican candidate, but then when they put him up against one of the actual candidates, he pounces all of them, so who knows??
Its very simple though, if he becomes the nominee based on VOTES, I will be shocked! ;)
@fctiger74 "Its very simple though, if he becomes the nominee based on VOTES, I will be shocked! ;)"
So will I. But I still support him and WE HAVE TO TRY. IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TRY, YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET AND SHOULDN'T COMPLAIN.
Can I ask you why you don't want Ron Paul as President? (Remember I want facts and evidence that I can go research my self. Maybe you can teach me something.) Don't give me, he s a kook, racists, or wants Iran to have a nuke bullshit...lol
@Jahkillian Not sure why this is spam?? Anyway, I dont want him as Prez because I dont think he will make a good one, hows that ;). First his ideas are ideas like dissolving the fed, getting rid of the Dept of Edu and stuff like that is silly. 2nd, why do people think a PRESIDENT can just snap their fingers and all their ideas will be passed into law? Lawrence O Donell made a GREAT point the other day, CONGRESS has the real power, not the Prez. Do you think Pauls ideas would EVER get passed???
@Jahkillian LOL man, let's not go there!! This will be an endless debate that will never go anywhere. YOu are a Paul supporter, I respect that, but no I dont think just eliminating them is the answer either. You dont take instituations and just wipe them off the map, ESPECIALLY if there are no real plans in place of them. But agree to disagree.
My MAIN point is though Paul would NEVER get ideas like this enacted, never! He knows that! He's been in Congress forever, he knows how this works!
@fctiger74 First off, maybe you should read his plan. He dosen't want to dissolve the Fed. AND HE HAS A PLAN!! Its just not a catchy MSM gold like 999...LOL
He wants to audit the Fed. He also doesn't want to wipe any institution off the map. He wants to start reducing there funding over time.
Your right, what you think would never get passed. But thats not Ron Pauls 4 year plan.
@Jahkillian I dont believe in letting health care just fall to the states, but I know many Repblicans do! He is anti-abortion and I am pro-choice. But as long as he doesnt try and make it a federal law like those others would try, thats fine! And he obviously wouldnt. Other things too, but these are the other mains ones.
I DO agree with him of getting out of the wars, thats probably the only thing I completely agree on him with. BUT as Obama learned, its easier than done!
@Jahkillian Because thats what we BEEN had and how is that working out for most people, especially the poorest ones? Look, I didnt come here to debate the issues because its useless, especially on youtube lol, so lets just agree to disagree. But yes, I have NO problems with a healthcare program that will cover more as possible. And I dont think his program is perfect, not by a long shot, but better than anything the Republicans are proposing. The 'just let him die' morons need help!
@Jahkillian There has never been a mandate to have health insurance before and if you leave it to the states, there is no guarantee there would be one now. Thats the entire point of having a national program, to make sure everyone can get on it, especially poor people. You take that way, there is no point UNLESS states make sure that everyone has insurance. But they cant be forced to make sure everyone has one Understand now?
Again, you disagree, thats fine, BUT thats my issue with Paul! ;)
@fctiger74 well the point is, if your reduce health to a state level, it wont cost as much. The only reason why it cost so much now, is because they jack up the price/bill on everything involved, because they know the government/insurance will pay for it.The insurance company and federal government work together. So imagine if all the insurance companies had to compete, and audit the health expenses, price would go down. No more $500 for a band aid on the bill.. LOL
@Jahkillian I agree, that can happen and why I said its not perfect! So I understand people want changes, but I generally feel a national healtcare plan can be a good one. I just dont trust if you leave it to the states, they will ALL create a reasonable and affordable plan. This is the problem. Some will be better than others, but end of the day if you just leave EVERYTHING to others, it doesnt mean anything would ever get done...or better! This is the problem for me.
@fctiger74 Well up here in Canada, its on State/Province level, not Federal and it seems to be fine. It was easy to get as well. All I had to do, was prove I'm allowed to work here and they gave me a Health Card. This is Ontario, i don't know what its like in the other Provinces, but I do know I can only use it in Ontario. So I don't understand why this is a issue for some people. I will admit, if you don't have your Health Card, you're screwed. Or you pay cash. I've seen that happen.
Senator Ron Paul probably does have a piece in his pocket. And this skit demonstrates his excercision of his Right to Bear Arms promised in the US Constitution 2nd amendment. Tough as a Nail just like Old Hickory Andrew Jackson. Jackson got into his share of gun fights too from what I have heard.

Israel's problem is as in the old testament when instead of turning to their God, they went and purchased an army to fight their battles. Sound familiar? And just as in the Old Testament, God will give them up to their enemies until they turn back to him. They continue to reject the living Lord Jesus.

Ron Paul is a National treasure who deserves the Nobel Peace Prize that Obama the war monger, is wearing.
He will end the Fed..The Fed is the root of the problem.
The Fed prints money from thin air.this devalues our currency which robs the poor and the middle class and transfers the wealth to the bankers.
Ron Paul is our last hope. he will end the empire building.

Ron Paul resonates with most Americans that he can deliver is message to, as long as he can get it out there without the MSM stonewalling him or spinning him as a moonbat. I think he will simply have to pay for his own advertisements to get his message out.

@Iwubchickenwubbins There is nothing such as a perfect person, he's going to have his own personal opinion on issues.

That leaves the responsibility up to the people of said states so if anything goes wrong, they only have themselves to blame.

@SpraxIAKS Unfortunately for minority groups such as immigrants, homosexuals, and transgendered people the majority of Americans are against their rights, giving it to the provinces doesn't do anything but likely hurt minorities in the long run.

@fctiger74 All of the polls you see on the media are fake. Its the polls that they don't talk about are the real ones. For Example: Ron won the poll out in Calif. but no media responce to it. And he just won the values voter poll that also didn't get played alot on the media. Trust me, Ron is not in the single digits. Thats why the media is running out of options of who to build up. The media still thinks they are in 2008 and Ron will just go away. Not going to happen.

@rockytopfarm Well dude, that might all be true, but seriously you are talking marginalized polls at best. I really cant believe ALL the polls out there are 'fake'. No offense but this is the problem with the Ron Paul crowd and kind of come off like kooks themselves. There are no conspiracy theories, Paul has a lot of loyal support out there, but on a national level its minimum and why no chance of winning! Even if hes in the double digits, its very low. But he's better than that kook Bachmann.

@fctiger74 Most of the polls are fake. Just look at Iowa.

@rockytopfarm Ok for argument sake lets say the polls are wrong. Are you trying to tell me on a NATIONAL level Ron Paul is really #1 or 2? I mean c'mon, even if you really believe they are flawed, its no way in hell Ron Paul is leading the pack eitherway. Its not about 'trusting the media', its about seeing him in the LAST election and seeing as supportive as his base is, there is a low ceiling there. Ron Paul can run 5 more times, he will finish about the same every time ;).
fctiger74 4 months ago
@fctiger74 My point is this. In 2008 the voter didn't really see the efects of the economy crash until it hit hard end of 2008. Today they are living with it. ( No job and no house) Rons message from 2002 - 2006 is being more understood of why he called for this warning. And you have the neocons trying to sound like Ron. But they can't get no traction because there past voting record don't match there talking point. Again, this isn't 2008 Ron is there. he has the media nervous.
rockytopfarm 4 months ago
@rockytopfarm I actually will agree with that! Yes, you have a point, but still no chance in hell of winning. I dont think the media is nervous lol. They only care about ratings. If Ron Paul got more than his hardcore interested in him and leading in the polls, he would have more exposure. I mean, how is the media 'scared' of him when he's on CNN, FOX and MSNBC every other day lol. The guy probably has a media room in his office hes on so much.

@fctiger74 The reason why he is not running again for congress is he wanted to try to put more money towards being the next president.

The media don't like him and neither does his own party because he is not in there "click". Ron only gets money from his supporters. Obama also talks a good game of going against the big banks but, thats who put him in.

They will use tricks like "Republicans Only Poll" so all they do is get 200 Republicans they want and then you can't say they lied.

The fact is ALL the DNC campaign attack ads are against ROMNEY, not Paul! Even the other attack ads by other candidates are against Romney or even Perry, NOT Paul ;). Hell I saw Pauls ad attacking, but not a single ad attacking Paul, nor Gindgrich, Bachmann, Santorum or Huntsman. I mean why waste money attacking someone who has no chance in hell of winning ;).

@fctiger74 You seem to be clueless on evidence and facts. Me, "how do you know RP will not win?"
You," Because his down in the polls and none of the commercials attack him" WTF?? LOL
Maybe you mean, it will be hard for him to win, or he needs to poll better, but to say "I know for sure" means you have some little info the rest of us idiots including the other candidates don't have. Thats might point. You don't think he'll win, but there is no way for you to no for sure.

@Jahkillian LOL, what 'evidence' do you want? I know for sure because I have common sense lol. He has no chance! NONE!! Everyone knows this. Did you forget what this SNL skit was based on?
I tell you two things I can prove without any 'evidence': The sun will come up tomorrow and Ron Paul doesnt have a chance for the nominee. The first should be proved tomorrow...the other will be proven in January! Come back tomorrow and tell me I was wrong and then come back in January and do the same! ;)

@Jahkillian Oh ok! You dont like the 'I know for sure' he wont win, got it! Ok I agree, you are right, I dont know! I also dont know if America will go to war with Australia next year or if world hunger will end by December, but I have a strong feeling it wont just like I have a feeling Paul wont win. So lets put it that way! But true I could be wrong...Australia might strike us first! ;)

@fctiger74 So you equate a Republican primary USA election, to world war between 2 friendly countries?
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian LOL, did you watch the last debate? ;D
C'mon, you know what I'm saying. The odds of 2 friendly countries going to war will happen about as much as Paul being the nominee. But yes, if Australia pulls their people out of embassies and stock piling up on weapons and move warships closer to the shores...then yes, maybe its proof Paul has a chance in hell lol...and GREAT timing too, we're gonna need him! ;)

@fctiger74 "did you watch the last debate?" Wow dude, you're really media influenced. All your choices are mostly based on what media puts in your ears and eyes. Thats another reason why I support Ron Paul.
You're a perfect example of MSM influence.

@Jahkillian WTF does THIS mean??? I was talking about the rumble in the jungle between Romney and Perry, nothing more! Jesus, get your freaky paranoia out of your head for a few minutes. I guess you missed the part where I ALSO said if I had to choose, I would probably pick Paul over most of those clowns, didnt you? Jesus, this is why talking to some of you people feel just as hopeless and kooky. But no, not a Republican and Paul has no chance either way!

@Jahkillian Oh and speaking of wasting someone time, you STILL havent shown me any polls that puts Paul in 1st or 2nd place dude. I asked you to cite them a day ago, so where are there?? So yeah, lets stop pretending I'm the one talking out of my ass! At least I have actual polls to back up my beliefs, whether you choose to believe them or not. So where are yours? And exactly why should I BELIVE those polls anyway exactly if I can't the MSM's? Oh let me guess, because Ron Paul is ahead lol.

@fctiger74 HOLY CRAP DUDE!! Are you serious. I NEVER MADE ANY GUARANTEE ANYBODY WAS GOING TO WIN YOU MADE THE CLAIM. I asked you what facts evidence do you have? I thought you had some info. "Google Polls Ron Paul won" Theres plenty, but that proves nothing. I never made any claim.. WTF? LOL
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian LOL, where did I say YOU said was someone was going to win?? I didnt. I said you seem to think he's farther ahead in the polls, thus has a chance in hell. I'm saying you wrong, he doesnt! Savvy? ;)
But you said you had polls that showed Ron Paul in 1st or 2nd dude. I ask you to cite them! You havent! Right? What are we even talking about again lol.
fctiger74 4 months ago
@fctiger74 But this is very hard to explain to anybody that believes the polls are accurate. I'm sorry hand picked phone calls to WHITE MALE REPUBLICANS OVER 45 ONLY is not fare or accurate.
Did you know they manipulate the polls by calling the same people that voted Perry, or Romney, etc over again for the next poll. So the only way the numbers change is if those same voters changed there mine from the last poll. Or they can call all the RP votes numbers and RP would be number 1. Understand

@Jahkillian Look, no one is suggesting that polls are a foregone conclusion, just a general indicator of the present situation. Everyone knows this stuff has to be taken with a grain of salt, especially s oearly . There are some polls saying Obama will lose badly to an invisible Republican candidate, but then when they put him up against one of the actual candidates, he pounces all of them, so who knows??
Its very simple though, if he becomes the nominee based on VOTES, I will be shocked! ;)

So will I. But I still support him and WE HAVE TO TRY. IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TRY, YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET AND SHOULDN'T COMPLAIN.
Can I ask you why you don't want Ron Paul as President? (Remember I want facts and evidence that I can go research my self. Maybe you can teach me something.) Don't give me, he s a kook, racists, or wants Iran to have a nuke bullshit...lol

@Jahkillian Not sure why this is spam?? Anyway, I dont want him as Prez because I dont think he will make a good one, hows that ;). First his ideas are ideas like dissolving the fed, getting rid of the Dept of Edu and stuff like that is silly. 2nd, why do people think a PRESIDENT can just snap their fingers and all their ideas will be passed into law? Lawrence O Donell made a GREAT point the other day, CONGRESS has the real power, not the Prez. Do you think Pauls ideas would EVER get passed???

@fctiger74 Why is dissolving the Fed or cutting back on department of education a bad idea?
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian LOL man, let's not go there!! This will be an endless debate that will never go anywhere. YOu are a Paul supporter, I respect that, but no I dont think just eliminating them is the answer either. You dont take instituations and just wipe them off the map, ESPECIALLY if there are no real plans in place of them. But agree to disagree.
My MAIN point is though Paul would NEVER get ideas like this enacted, never! He knows that! He's been in Congress forever, he knows how this works!
fctiger74 4 months ago
@fctiger74 First off, maybe you should read his plan. He dosen't want to dissolve the Fed. AND HE HAS A PLAN!! Its just not a catchy MSM gold like 999...LOL
He wants to audit the Fed. He also doesn't want to wipe any institution off the map. He wants to start reducing there funding over time.
Your right, what you think would never get passed. But thats not Ron Pauls 4 year plan.
So what else don't you like about him?

@Jahkillian I dont believe in letting health care just fall to the states, but I know many Repblicans do! He is anti-abortion and I am pro-choice. But as long as he doesnt try and make it a federal law like those others would try, thats fine! And he obviously wouldnt. Other things too, but these are the other mains ones.
I DO agree with him of getting out of the wars, thats probably the only thing I completely agree on him with. BUT as Obama learned, its easier than done!
fctiger74 4 months ago
@fctiger74 Why do you think Obama care is better then having the States run health care?
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian Because thats what we BEEN had and how is that working out for most people, especially the poorest ones? Look, I didnt come here to debate the issues because its useless, especially on youtube lol, so lets just agree to disagree. But yes, I have NO problems with a healthcare program that will cover more as possible. And I dont think his program is perfect, not by a long shot, but better than anything the Republicans are proposing. The 'just let him die' morons need help!

@fctiger74 """Because thats what we BEEN had and how is that working out for most people, especially the poorest ones""????
What??
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian There has never been a mandate to have health insurance before and if you leave it to the states, there is no guarantee there would be one now. Thats the entire point of having a national program, to make sure everyone can get on it, especially poor people. You take that way, there is no point UNLESS states make sure that everyone has insurance. But they cant be forced to make sure everyone has one Understand now?
Again, you disagree, thats fine, BUT thats my issue with Paul! ;)
fctiger74 4 months ago
@fctiger74 well the point is, if your reduce health to a state level, it wont cost as much. The only reason why it cost so much now, is because they jack up the price/bill on everything involved, because they know the government/insurance will pay for it.The insurance company and federal government work together. So imagine if all the insurance companies had to compete, and audit the health expenses, price would go down. No more $500 for a band aid on the bill.. LOL
Jahkillian 4 months ago
@Jahkillian I agree, that can happen and why I said its not perfect! So I understand people want changes, but I generally feel a national healtcare plan can be a good one. I just dont trust if you leave it to the states, they will ALL create a reasonable and affordable plan. This is the problem. Some will be better than others, but end of the day if you just leave EVERYTHING to others, it doesnt mean anything would ever get done...or better! This is the problem for me.

@fctiger74 Well up here in Canada, its on State/Province level, not Federal and it seems to be fine. It was easy to get as well. All I had to do, was prove I'm allowed to work here and they gave me a Health Card. This is Ontario, i don't know what its like in the other Provinces, but I do know I can only use it in Ontario. So I don't understand why this is a issue for some people. I will admit, if you don't have your Health Card, you're screwed. Or you pay cash. I've seen that happen.
