Ron Paul is America's leading voice for limited, constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, a return to sound monetary policies, and a sensible foreign policy that puts America first.
I don't disagree with all of his proposals. But I think he is living in the past. We are not an agrarian society anymore. All industrialized societies in the world have large and active public sectors. And all of those societies have seen dramatic increases in life expectancy and IQ rates. "Less goverment" would involve a regression.

@strawberryseason You are making a classic correlation and causation conflation mistake. Technological development, lifespan, IQ, evolution, and expansion of government are all correlated with the forward passage of time. That does not meat you can say "growth of government causes increased lifespan!"
It is far more likely that evolution, whether biological or technological, are causing increased IQ and lifespan. Not the degree to which government bails out companies.
@metamemetics I don't favor the government bailing out companies. But social goods like public schools, Medicare, food stamps, Social Security, college grants, environmental regulations -- all have cumulative effects in terms of people's health. Governent intervention may not be totally causal in longer lifespans, but it plays a part. An industrialied society without a safety net would not be a place most of us would want to live in, and it would not likely be a healthy place either.
@strawberryseason So in other words a healthy society is one that has people living off the hard work of others and people telling others what to do. No that's not a world I want to live in.
@nadeau If you look at indices such as lifespan, poverty, crime rates, and overall health, nations that have stronger safety nets have better outcomes. It is not just an opinion, it is empirical fact. So-called "socialist" nations like Canada and those in Europe have less obesity, violent crime, infant mortality, teen pregnacy, and they have higher levels of literacy and longer lifespans.
@nadeau I am social scientist and there are many sources for the statistics I just gave. They are common knowledge among anyone with even cursory familiarity with health and crime stats. Do a search re: life expectancy by nation, infant mortality by nation, murder rates, obesity rates, etc. On all of those measurements the US does poorer than nations with stronger safety nets. If for some reason, you are unable, then I will provide links, but you should be able to do online research yourself.
@strawberryseason Please do. I also have links to share. The fact that big government makes your life better is a lie and I'm sad you have been brainwashed into being a slave.
@nadeau I am not a slave. I am a rational person. Read a history book if you think that things were so great before we had a safety net, or speak to your grandparents for heaven's sake.
@strawberryseason I have read many a history book. I know what happens when government has too much power. A government big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away.
@nadeau I am trying to post links, but I keep getting error messages. They won't let you post links on here. The highest murder rate in "socialist" Western Europe is Finland's rate of 2.34 per 100,000. Search "Homocide rates, International Comparisons/SCCCJ" The murder rate in the US has come down since the historic highs of the 1980s, but it is still more than double the highest in western Europe. The homocide rate in Canada is 1.62 per hundred thous. US rate – 4.8.
@nadeau Also check out the article "How Economic Inequality Is (Literally) Making Us Sick" From the article: ""A growing body of research suggests that such inequality — more so than income or absolute wealth alone — has a profound influence on a population’s health, in every socioeconomic group from rich to middle class to poor."
@nadeau Also, if you are correct, then every advanced nation in the world is wrong. Because every single one has an extensive and active public sector. If Ron Paul has his way, then the US woud end up like a third world nation without a safety net, and without consumer protections or environmental protections.
Ron just makes too much sense for anyone to discredit him.....he is the only realistic choice for Rebublicans- he stands for everything they want but he's not a dumbass hillbilly from Texas I guess?!!

We have had our own government and all the rest of us put into debt by a private bank called the Federal Reserve. The money we have can be printed by We the People in the form of our government printing it's own money with NO DEBT. End all taxation and end all cash or items of value in politics-- it should be treason to take any form of payment before or after service. One should have to sacrifice for public service. We need to make these small changes -- they will vastly supercharge the USA
Much of our problems with government are not because "The EPA failed" or "the Social Safety net failed" or anything else much of the problem is because we have allowed Congress and the White House to be bought and owned by private entities from Israel to the big-oil and insurance monopolies. We need to have an EPA that sets the rules and has strong enforcement and we can with a Congress that can't be bought. No more money in politics of any kind. Minimal government but we must have rules.
With Dr. Ron Paul we see great change possible. Ending of wasteful wars and ending of the military industrial complex(this is less clear). The problem with his notion that wealth rules -- people conspire to get their names on pieces of paper -- they want to pollute so they buy the land and pollute-- they buy up all the news services and control the Internet-- he doesn't really address any of this sort of thing. No courts won't keep the polluters from polluting. Private free will can = crime
we need to go closer to Paul's views-- we could wipe out taxation with debt-free currency where the government prints what it needs combined with a robust control on the money supply to prevent inflation. There would be no debt and no way to make money from money. Money would be a means of exchange-- so much wealth would be possible by increased access to resources needed to fund innovation and education the economy would grow rapidly overnight upon the establishment of debt-free currency.
the Social Security Trustfund is not insolvant-- Congress has stolen the money from the fund. If laws and enforcement were made against medical organizations from stealing from the fund and allowing the Social Security department to fix a price schedule -- to oppose the medical cartels that have caused the US to end up with the most expensive medical system in the world and we are ranked low on the list of nations regarding health outcomes.
Doesn't make sense to put the department of Energy under the control of the department of Defense at all in fact it is a very bad idea. Why is he not emphasizing the cutting of DOD-- he is regarding warring but what about ending privatization of defense? Freddie Mac was not the problem it was banking and investment houses taking a relative tiny amount of subprime mortgages(less than 1 trillion) and turning it into 62 trillion of bogus credit default swaps. Otherwise good points.
David Gregory is an establishment zombie. It appears Mr Gregory thinks there will be no housing or education unless there are bloated federal bureaucracies devoted to "guaranteeing" those things. He suffers under the tyranny of typical thinking.
When the interviewer saw he just got owned after every question he immediately changed the subject. You can't beat truth no matter how hard you try to dicieve or divert.
More bias against Ron Paul! I recorded the interview as it aired on Sunday. At 13:08, the correct chapter excerpt from Ron Paul's book "Liberty Defined" is displayed on the screen as David Gregory asks him about his statement that there is little to no difference between the two parties.
At 13:08 of the rebroadcast available on Meet the Press website, and shown here, the chapter excerpt has been changed. More on the story here:
It's not enough to say "Vote Ron Paul" PEOPLE MIGHT NEED TO SWITCH PARTIES 12 WEEKS IN ADVANCE OF THE PRIMARIES DEPENDING ON YOUR STATE. IF YOU DO NOT SWITCH IN TIME YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE VOTE IN THE PRIMARY DEPENDING UPON YOUR STATES RULES. THIS MEANS THAT IF YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED REPUBLICAN YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE VOTE IN THE PRIMARY. IF RON PAUL DOES NOT WIN THE PRIMARY, THEN HE WILL NOT BE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. PLEASE CHECK YOUR STATES REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTER RULES.
The idea behind the student loans increasing the price of education is spot on. Because school know patients will take out loans, they raise tuition prices and service fees. It's the same thing with insurance companies and medical costs. The lender acts as an interface that desensitizes the loan owner and beefs up the end recipient. Without federal student loans, schools will have to cut professors and scale back prices or no one will enroll. Education is a market. Stop manipulating it.
@need4arevolution Ron Paul supports the "flat/fair/consumption tax" which is just a sneaky way of heaping more of the tax burden onto the poor and working class. If the rate for this tax was 25%, a person making minimum wage and spending all of his income just to survive pays 25%. Someone who makes a million $ a year would pay a much smaller tax rate. And he wants to do away with minimum wage, so the working class would be extra fucked. The "freedom" to work for $1/hour (0.75 after taxes)
@ThePedub Thanks for answering back with a well thought out argument and not an ignorant rant. Firstly I'll address the issue about minimum wage. I'm not sure if you understand what Dr. Paul's agenda for America is but in case.... He wants to bring America back to its feet and off of the government dependency that this country has gradually lazied itself into.
By removing minimum wage he would actually be helping the "poor" class get a job where as they would probably be receiving an unemployment check every two weeks. This check is averaged out to be about 400-300 dollars for the unemployed. Meaning if you do the math that is 5-4 dollars an hour they could have been earning instead of laying on the couch while the government promotes ppls dependency.
Jobs would be able to afford to hire more employees would boost the job market essentially boosting even higher positions.As for the "flat/fair/consumption" tax... you must be confused. He's quoted say he's "I'm in favor of a FLAT TAX, flat as in... ZERO." Consumption tax is for the states and not even received by gov so again... what do you mean? where are these number you're pulling about 25%? He's for less gov. which essentially is less tax.

@kpa1983 yeah remove minimum wage and any chance we may have had universal health care in a few decades. That's really what poor people need, some bootstraps to pull themselves up
@bossgen I know what you mean. RP can start to go on a rant sometimes, but the reporters job is to get the questions answered. This reporter did interupt Paul a few times, as most seem to have to, BUT; This reporter Was very curttius to Give Ron Paul some real issues to talk about and plenty of time to answer them. Unlike most media who never gave him the chance. :)
Typical arrogant yet ignorant note-reading biased establishment interviewer. What nozzle. His fact-checkers are just as incompetent because he was wrong on so many points. LOL. What a joker.
These people all come out with the dollars backing them. Why?
Ron PAUL = Freedom
Why does Ron Paul get more support from Active Military? Ron Paul has come out saying he will take a $39,000 salary as President! Obama should have done this 2 years ago! He supports the RIGHTS of the PEOPLE!! We are spending $12,000,000 per minute in Afghanistan! Like, share, donate, vote, buy hats, t-shirts, and signs from Ron Paul 2012
" Taxation is theft when you take money from one group and give it to another group , when you transfer the wealth........ The income tax is based on the assumption that the government owns you. Owns all your income and provides the conditions on which they allow you to keep a certain percentage. That to me is immoral and the founders didn't like it ..."RP
"Once you get this distortion you have to correct the mistake. So you do what we did in 1921, you allow the correction to occur in one year and you get back to work. If you keep transferring the debt from the pseudo owners the fannie maes and the Freddie macs that participated in the bankruptcy you bail them out and you bail out the banks and the wall streeters. You dump all this debt on the people!' RP
"They created the Monster! First the fed creates the money. Than you have congress get involved and say's you do this, this and this. And than it becomes corrupt, they get involved in the derivatives business and who gets bailed out? They got bailed out. Its a distortion of the market. If you don't eliminate....(interruption)." ....The system would be cleansed, over and done with by now...it should of had a sharp correction because it was artificially manipulated.
"What were witnessing today is the failure of a Keynsesian economic model and today we have to replace it with something. We either replace it with more government , more authoritarianism, more controls or we look toward the free market."
"So when you run up debt , print money, costs goes up in the areas that government gets involved in, education, medical care and housing. So its artificial and distorts the economy. So we have to look at the business cycle and the inflation...so it doesn't help the people. All these housing programs, they end up losing there jobs and there houses. What were witnessing today is the failure of a Keynsian economic model and today we have to replace it with something."
"Resources aren't diminished. Resources are put back in the economy, and the people spend the money. But now all we do is give them debt. We tax, we borrow and inflate. Then we distort the economy and we destroy the production because the government takes over the economy and thats the negative."
Obviously this isn't right journalism , who with me getting a Peoples Journalism with live feed with interactiveness through us people writing comments and question here (internet) and each one of us able to vote whose comments to be read out loud to the one presently focused upon such as Ron Paul
Gary Johnson is the best presidential candidate for the american people. He has the most logical and ethical economic solutions for this nation as a whole. I ask that you at least research him, and if you do not, if I did know you, I'd have to ask, why are you voting when you do not have all the facts? Why vote only for your own sake instead of for the sake of our nation . Take some time and read, and see what else is out there? besides what the media tells you
@dkoribag1 I like Gary Johnson. I don't see a lot of difference between him and Dr. Paul, but Gary isn't going to get the nomination. It's too late for him to catch on given his lack of name recognition. The people that would have voted for him are in Paul's camp.
I imagine hill drop out and endorse Paul after the New Hampshire or S. Carolina primary. I welcome his endorsement of Dr. Paul. He would make a great vice-president and maybe president down the road.
@joepeeler34 Having compiled a record as governor that, by any measure, demonstrates the ability to curb spending, cut taxes and create an economic and regulatory environment that will bring about real job creation,he entered the race for president with the belief that he brings to the table not only the credentials, but ideas that Republicans would like to see and hear.
@joepeeler34 I agree with you about Gary Johnson. He'd be a good running mate for Dr. Paul, though, and if they actually got into office he'd then be a natural to succeed him.
REMEMBER if you want to vote in PRIMARYS for RON PAUL you MUST be registered as a REPUBLICAN --- & get some RON PAUL gear on & be seen in PUBLIC as much as possible - YARD SIGN & CAR STICKER - I am recruiting 35,000 RON PAULers nationwide - TO peacefully TAKE IT TO THE STREETS & be seen --- MALLS - GROCERY - BIKE - WALKING DOG - RESTAURANT - HAIR DONE - cap - shirt - badge - or WITH FRIENDS in GEAR @ corners HOLDING UP RP SIGNS - if not YOU---WHO? -- PRIMARYS ARE COMING -- vote R. Paul
I agree the interviewer did seem a little dick'ish..Iv been trying to see how he treated other candidates but I think so far Ron Paul was the first candidate to recently go on Meet the Press as the recent GOP elections...I would be a little aggrivated if Mitt Romney goes on and the interviewer treats him like hes the greatest thing since sliced bread..other media outlets like CNN seem to do that regularly...hopefully not NBC as well...i guess well have to wait n see
I was in an employee training seminar many years ago in which the instructor used the analogy, "That's like asking a goldfish to describe water."
All of us who have been brought up in the current American system have known nothing else. Our point of reference is the water in which swim.
Ron Paul is asking us to think outside the box (or the goldfish bowl) and ask some really fundamental questions. David Gregory is stuck in “goldfish bowl thinking.”
You are religion infected if you think that. Might wanna go get some education in RCT. Will help you see where you get all those religion based opinions.Pro life=100% religion. War on drugs i feel his religion will force him to forget about once elected,immigration stance is garbage. Gary all around would have been more likely to get elected with the same support as RP. Not to menchion RP wont even say Gary Johnsons name. The guy is a religious nutcase and wont get my vote, pick somone better.
@dkoribag1 Unfortunately, you have missed one of the main points of Ron Paul's campaign. The Federal Government does not have the right to legislate morality on US citizens or any other country. Their role is limited to the specified authority in the Constitution. So it matters not whether he is a religious nutcase or not because the Constitution does not grant him the authority to control your views or behavior.
I am actually glad he is asking some of these questions, too many people are confused and think the way the interviewer does. The problem is as soon as Ron Paul starts to explain them and make a good point the topic is quickly changed. Gotta love mainstream media.
People should study the "1921 Depression" which is hardly mentioned/talked about. WHY? because the gov't didn't intervene. They allowed the "cleansing" & after 1 year (that's how long it lasted) we were back to business. The GREAT DEPRESSION. The one that everyone talks about, that lasted from 1929 to 1941, lasted that long because of? what? GOV'T INTERVENTION! Google: "Great Myths of the Great Depression" to download free PDF copy & learn all the myths and truths. educate yourselves.
I agree, this guy is pretty rude. Dr. Paul is the most consistent politician out there. I hope Americans wake up and see how much more free and prosperous the country would be if he were president.
Well said Dr. Paul. Enough is enough. I like the analysis that someone did dropping 8 zeroes and treating the fed. government like a family budget. That was a good way to show folks what the other republicans or democrats are willing to cut... I believe the "cuts" were only cuts in "new" spending, not the existing budget, and amounted to (comparatively) $380.00 of cuts on the "family" plan analysis....
Again, Ron Paul schools the fool! The interviewer is so biased against Ron Paul and makes foolish comments like "the Governments always had a role in housing." What? Huh?
People see right through media tools like this weenie! Nice try David Gregory...you get the "Biggest Douche in the Universe Award" this week.
Dissatisfied with David Gregory's blatant disrespect and bias? Write to MSNBC at msnbc dot com
I like how the interviewer tries to grill him, and Ron Paul is well enough informed that he can not only can keep from being backed into a corner but calls the interviewer out on all his bad facts and comes out on top every time.
Ron Paul's 100% right, we must stop policing the world, and our troops agree with him. Our best economic experts predict doomsday in America will happen sooner than we think, and will last at least a decade. I tend to agree with them, look at what our politicians have done, their slowly bankrupting America, and when our credit card get cut up, will see extreme cuts across the once great USA like we never seen before. Are you prepared for Doomsday, (Political Wars) on facebook helps you prepare
this guy is grasping for straw after straw in a lame attempt to make Paul's policy perspectives look weak or discredited, and dr. Paul shot every one of his questions out of the sky.lol.
Gary Johnson is the best presidential candidate for the american people. He has the most logical and ethical economic solutions for this nation as a whole. I ask that you at least research him, and if you do not, if I did know you, I'd have to ask, why are you voting when you do not have all the facts?

@venordave its a subtle technique used by whomever to make him appear ugly...strange, deformed...to subconsciously dissuade a voter from considering him electable....it's very evil.
@venordave Its a problem with low quality video compression. Older individuals usually have spotty complections and it causes the video to be distorted. Not to get too much into detail but basically when a video is compressed it reuses data that is the same in preceding frames and when you have a subtle change in color in low quality it reads as being the same and it doesn't update those spots in the video. A spotty complection on a talking face is going to have this happen a lot.
"GOLD" NOT OIL CAUSE OF US UNLAWFULLY ATTACKING LIBYA!! Muammar Al-Qaddafi's plan to introduce the gold dinar, a single African currency made from gold, a true sharing of the wealth. THE US HAD TO STOP HIM FROM CREATING LIBYA’S OWN CURRENCY!!!

THE QADDAFI NO ONE WILL TELL YOU ABOUT, (HE WAS NOT EVIL ONLY PORTRAYED THAT WAY BY THE MEDIA) HE GAVE TO HIS PEOPLE
What an amazing interview!! Although the interviewer was rude, Ron Paul ANSWERED his questions honestly.
Ron Paul is trying to tell America a hard truth many liberals and others don't seem to comprehend.
THE PARTY IS OVER AMERICA!! Do not drag the youth of this country down in a vain attempt to convince yourself you are correct when your policies and leaders have clearly FAILED in all manner of reasonable judgement.
This interviewer is a rude cockhead. This guy is going to save the greatest free republic in recorded history that will otherwise implode into a smouldering pile of economic dust and he's cutting him off, throwing cheap shots, shitty attitude, completely doesn't understand the underlying issues, doesn't let the good Dr. finish his points. What a disgrace of an excuse for a crap journalist. I say, put that guy on the garbage round as an intern, maybe he'll learn something.
@TheDeJureTour Yep. But hopefully that is changing now. The irate and tireless minority is getting pretty large and pretty irate and I don't see anybody getting tired but those who don't have any ability to refute the message of liberty!
The interviewer is deliberately framing his economic cuts pejoratively by using statements such as 'draconian' & 'you'd let the market crash again'. Unfortunately, the gen public aren't up to speed with Paul's economic theories so they're likely to take such comments at face value. Fact is though, the govt have no source of revenue but to tax the private sector. To call bureaucracy anything but draconian would be economising on the truth
@Samsgarden He does, but man that was a tough interview, tougher than it seemed. My point was really just that the interviewer is a jackoff and we should figuratively string him up once this is all done. All these criminal media types should be exposed for who they are and who they work for. They shouldn't get away with it. They're playing with a very dangerous situation that is the economy of the world by supporting the criminals. By the way thanks for articulating the situation so well!
It's imperative that free market advocates remain erudite and consolidated. Regularly consult the literature, conduct non-violent protests etc.
Many are lured to the left for their trite egalitarian consumption but their ideas are an affront to personal freedom. The press are unreceptive because frankly, ideas of limited govt seem counter-intuitive and on the fringe. As it is generally understood, government is required to protect us from ourselves; in it's absence, there is chaos
to me he seems the most sincere.

2) More importantly the party doesn't want him
3) The peoples vote make little difference, check # 2 again
4) The peoples vote vs the electorial vote in each state
5) The popular vote doesn't elect the president, so start crying
6) The media represents the parties who don't want Ron Paul
7) Good luck with the controlled bias

We have had our own government and all the rest of us put into debt by a private bank called the Federal Reserve. The money we have can be printed by We the People in the form of our government printing it's own money with NO DEBT. End all taxation and end all cash or items of value in politics-- it should be treason to take any form of payment before or after service. One should have to sacrifice for public service. We need to make these small changes -- they will vastly supercharge the USA

Much of our problems with government are not because "The EPA failed" or "the Social Safety net failed" or anything else much of the problem is because we have allowed Congress and the White House to be bought and owned by private entities from Israel to the big-oil and insurance monopolies. We need to have an EPA that sets the rules and has strong enforcement and we can with a Congress that can't be bought. No more money in politics of any kind. Minimal government but we must have rules.

With Dr. Ron Paul we see great change possible. Ending of wasteful wars and ending of the military industrial complex(this is less clear). The problem with his notion that wealth rules -- people conspire to get their names on pieces of paper -- they want to pollute so they buy the land and pollute-- they buy up all the news services and control the Internet-- he doesn't really address any of this sort of thing. No courts won't keep the polluters from polluting. Private free will can = crime
TruthInjector 4 months ago
we need to go closer to Paul's views-- we could wipe out taxation with debt-free currency where the government prints what it needs combined with a robust control on the money supply to prevent inflation. There would be no debt and no way to make money from money. Money would be a means of exchange-- so much wealth would be possible by increased access to resources needed to fund innovation and education the economy would grow rapidly overnight upon the establishment of debt-free currency.

The idea behind the student loans increasing the price of education is spot on. Because school know patients will take out loans, they raise tuition prices and service fees. It's the same thing with insurance companies and medical costs. The lender acts as an interface that desensitizes the loan owner and beefs up the end recipient. Without federal student loans, schools will have to cut professors and scale back prices or no one will enroll. Education is a market. Stop manipulating it.

@need4arevolution Ron Paul supports the "flat/fair/consumption tax" which is just a sneaky way of heaping more of the tax burden onto the poor and working class. If the rate for this tax was 25%, a person making minimum wage and spending all of his income just to survive pays 25%. Someone who makes a million $ a year would pay a much smaller tax rate. And he wants to do away with minimum wage, so the working class would be extra fucked. The "freedom" to work for $1/hour (0.75 after taxes)

@ThePedub Thanks for answering back with a well thought out argument and not an ignorant rant. Firstly I'll address the issue about minimum wage. I'm not sure if you understand what Dr. Paul's agenda for America is but in case.... He wants to bring America back to its feet and off of the government dependency that this country has gradually lazied itself into.
need4arevolution 4 months ago
By removing minimum wage he would actually be helping the "poor" class get a job where as they would probably be receiving an unemployment check every two weeks. This check is averaged out to be about 400-300 dollars for the unemployed. Meaning if you do the math that is 5-4 dollars an hour they could have been earning instead of laying on the couch while the government promotes ppls dependency.
need4arevolution 4 months ago
Jobs would be able to afford to hire more employees would boost the job market essentially boosting even higher positions.As for the "flat/fair/consumption" tax... you must be confused. He's quoted say he's "I'm in favor of a FLAT TAX, flat as in... ZERO." Consumption tax is for the states and not even received by gov so again... what do you mean? where are these number you're pulling about 25%? He's for less gov. which essentially is less tax.

I imagine hill drop out and endorse Paul after the New Hampshire or S. Carolina primary. I welcome his endorsement of Dr. Paul. He would make a great vice-president and maybe president down the road.

Their role is limited to the specified authority in the Constitution. So it matters not whether he is a religious nutcase or not because the Constitution does not grant him the authority to control your views or behavior.

The interviewer is deliberately framing his economic cuts pejoratively by using statements such as 'draconian' & 'you'd let the market crash again'. Unfortunately, the gen public aren't up to speed with Paul's economic theories so they're likely to take such comments at face value. Fact is though, the govt have no source of revenue but to tax the private sector. To call bureaucracy anything but draconian would be economising on the truth
