MSNBC interview with Dr Ron Paul (6/18/09)

[Foundingfatherfollow]

Those poor guys just got schooled! I love how it all went right over their head! In fact that's what scares me is how slow they are! Ron Paul makes it so black and white so simple a 10 year old could understand. He has been right over and over has a 30 record to prove it. You can learn more from Ron Paul in a hour then you could watching MSNBC for a year.

[worsecards]

let ron paul help save us. 4 years my ass...im not sayin fuck the constitution, they are...we need life and civility and progress and teamwork.

it makes me sick that people can listen to ron paul for an hour and not want to vote for him

[thegreendome]

Id like to see an organized effort to get millions of people to March in front of the Capitol. if african american people can come together and rally for their cause , we should be able to get at least 10 million people to come together for this cause, which is , Honor the Constitution, or get the hell out!!!!!!

[jimmyjoe1975]

If we can muster 10 million people, why hold signs? Just burn the place down.

[kyeot]

Hes right, they keep using the same failing methods. Now take those words and apply towards a corrupt government. The people keep looking towards one man like Ron Paul to solve their problems, he said it himself the Fed Reserve has more power than Congress.

Go here ni4d*dot*us to diminish the power of government, to end the tyranny of the minority, to give real meaning to the constitution via the words "We the people... do ordain" aka we the people make law.

ni4d*dot*us

[1tubedout]

They were blown out by Ron Paul as usual.

[hootchy]

The Fed answers to no one. It's got its own agenda. We need to know just what that agenda is. Is it to enslave or liberate?

[gunnarsom]

owned

[thekraken23]

once again great lesson from Dr. Paul

[bv468]

Those leftist extremists invaded the GOP calling themselves neocons (new conservatives).

[ohnoesfedzilla]

Ron Paul 2012!!! if something happens to this man there shall be hell to pay!!!

[FreeinTX]

How many times do I have to listen to these CRIMINAL SCUM keep saying, "If we don't do this or that, or the economy will collapse?"

I am so damn sick of giving money to rich people, in hopes that they will give a little back to us, knowing, for a fact, that they NEVER will.

We give BILLIONS and TRILLIONS to bankers, knowing that they will NEVER pay it back, but when it comes to giving money to a company to save thousands of jobs, we just sit by and watch them get forced into babkruptcy.

[bv468]

I think the Fed is under too much pressure to assassinate Dr Paul at this point. Everyone will know who and why.

[GeorgeGreekTrucker]

Americans please make sure nothing bad

happens to Dr. Paul like it did to JFK.

He needs your support and protection right now.

[thomaserossi]

A leftist killed JFK. It was a different time back then when Leftists were all like Bill Ayers - iconoclastic ideologues who killed anyone that didn't share their vision of a Brave New World. Now Bill Ayers and bunch are in charge. They can't claim "the little guy" position anymore. It doesn't work. When they kill now they're tyrants.

The "Right-Wing terrorist" memo is typical leftist cant. It has a wholly different meaning when it's a position of the gov instead of a college.

[tenyrsgone]

AWESOME. He's gotten so much better at his deliveries in interviews!!~

[czubspenx]

If more people were of the same principles as Ron Paul, this country would not be bankrupt like it is today. That's the bottom line.

[danbowski40]

Ron Paul 2012!!!

[quizerry]

Ron Paul makes so much sense. He was a libertarian. 2010 and 2012 I'm voting them all out and voting in independents and 3rd parties.

[jrod2211]

Chuck Todd has no clue... Ron Paul has gotten so comfortable on TV now that it isn't hard for him to debate circles around people and make it look easy.

[Martian74]

Unfortunately Ron Paul is too old to be elected president. Should start looking for a younger version of him somewhere.

[pauldelacroix]

I agree he's too old for the U.S. electorate, which is more an insult of said electorate than Ron Paul. He also would never be supported by his own party..as was the case in 2008.

[Stoili]

Chuck Todd is a REtodd

[ucjb2]

If you don't understand Ron Paul message, please don't vote.

[HumanAction23]

I used to think the media was biased, but now I realize, without a doubt, that they are just ignorant, especially when it comes to basic economics. Economic ignorance is by far the #1 problem we are facing. 90% of the population have zero clue about it, which leads us in messes like we're in.

[omegaXagemo]

The biggest Problem is that the persons in power are coming from these 90% an that the 10% have to look and warn and talk against brickheads... its really a shame that the people listen to the idiots because they say that it's not so bad at all. The truth is that it is bad and we need people in power who know this, honestly shout it out and have solution in the bag.... like ron paul md and other candidates of the c4l.

[quizerry]

If anyone would like to learn a great economic think tank is at cato. org

[soundgarden21]

Textbook talking head move Mr. Chuck Todd...you haven't got a prayer in debating his points, or you just plain dont understand???So what do you do? Put on a niiiice condescending smirk......to try and throw off the viewership to RP's message.

[Carlitos1010]

I'm having a really hard time believing that these clowns on the MSM don't understand the root of our problems the way Ron Paul or the rest of the Freedom movement does. I can see the strings hanging over them when they talk and move lol

[schellaa]

Pure knowledge will champion over talking points anyday of the week!

[MultiPolop]

We have already given you a set of tools in the form of 2 trillion dollars Geithner. You can't even account for where that money went and now you want broader powers for the people who mismanaged and created all this mess to begin with.

[rdrioane]

Doctor Paul is my President

[xorezx]

Screw that lackey/prostitute from NBC. Another talking head who know nothing about basic economics and the socialism he serves. Go Paul! Fuck Geithner; he's a traitor! Down with the Bastille! Let freedom ring!

[fsujag54]

Dr. Paul absolutely nailed this interview!

[SlowRealization]

Ya'll do know even if you elect Paul he'll never share his pot of pork gold.

[MisterLibertarian]

That's asinine. What are you talking about?

[dazzagazza6969]

Americans voted with their hearts and not their heads.

This guy should have been President. Everyone would be better off, except the very rich.

[daniel987878]

Man. That was one of Dr Paul's best interviews.

[TyredUvBS]

Posting here is just preaching to the choir. If you live in the US and your congress rep is not pro HR 1207, get everyone you can to call, email, or visit in person if possible, then same for the senate.. There are over 230 co-sponsors to Ron Paul's bill this time, the most support he's ever had but he still needs more.

HR 1207 MUST pass, it's a crucial 1st step in stopping the insanity. Let's audit the fed, expose their manipulation, corruption, fraud and theft and then let's END THE FED!

[fagan411]

Awesome job, Dr Paul.

[boltville]

Are they really that stupid that they don't get the fact that the Federal Reserve already regulates itself?? This is a stupid farce and they act like no one but Ron Paul can see what is going on. C'mon reporters......pretty bad when the ordinary citizen knows better that you what the heck is happening here. This makes me sick! Read what it says across the tiop of your paper money guys....it Bank of the United States of America is it????

[arizona95835]

I have to admit I think ron paul is absolutly right and he kills everyone in a debate.

[buddjas1]

Men amongst boys. Thank you Dr. Paul; you're our only hope.

[akai1sora]

Poor Chuck Todd, he just doesn't have a clue

[ftorresgamez]

Oh, these morons in the MSM . . . Can't possibly comprehend the impossibility of government bureaucrats to regulate the economy. von Mises already explained it in his book "Socialism", where he uses the concept of Economic Calculation (i..e being able to allocate resources by using the price system) and how bureaucrats, by intervening, distort prices and thus cannot regulate with any sense of precision or efficacy.

[kevinz1985]

The good Dr :)

[TyredUvBS]

our country is being methodically and systematically destroyed from within. every man woman and child in the US today is in debt in the amount of $40,000 to the government. we now have government controlled food, farming, auto industry, housing, student loans, banks, credit cards, and hospitals, pharmacies and all other health care related fields will soon follow.

don't be fooled comradse, the USSR did not collapse, it just moved to america. the fed is the master and we're all slaves. wake up!

[jcNOVA88]

Ron Paul took those tools to school! Ron Paul for FREEDOM!!!!!!!!

[asperin]

Chuck Todd sucks Federal cocks

[healthhavencom]

Ron Paul keeps hitting it out of the park.

And getting more respect from these so-called "journalists". Propagandists would be more accurate.

[therealside]

This is the very smirk of getting oooooooownage. At least they let him finish his sentences though!

[BoruJudasDedrich]

Now that Paul has been marginalized by the media, they use him to scare people into giving up more rights (which is ironic if you know Paul's message). When they no longer want to scare the people, they will dump Paul.

Paul, in turn, uses the mainstream media to get his message out, but I don't think it is really making a dent anymore.

Rush, Hannity, Beck, etc. have hijacked and perverted Paul's ideology...rendering Paul's ideology useless. Paul mostly reinforces the GOP propaganda machine

[MyImago]

Ron Paul my Hero.

"When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes... Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain." - Napoleon Bonaparte, 1815

[banemaler]

Do you think he's smiling because he's laughing at RP's ideas inside or that he knows that he just got smoked?

I enjoy watching the news networks throw correspondent after correspondent at our leading voices and getting thrown back to Earth. You know its going to be a good clip when the interviewer decides to bring one of his buddies into the mix. They should do this sort of thing for about an hour. I'd love to watch the carnage.

[TajiTJ]

Yeah, I am sure old Chuck Todd knew all about the housing bubble and called the collapse. But somehow he knows how to fix it.

[scottthrees]

"its like taking care of a drug addict by giving him more drugs."

Only place where failure is promoted.. SEC, FDA, FED, Schooling and so on.

[Lionwithoutpride]

I wish Ron Paul had completed his drug addict analogy, as he has done so eloquently before, by pointing out that doctors can make an addict feel TEMPORARILY better with more drugs, but the only SOLUTION is to wean them off (it's also worth noting that Paul has said time and again he wouldn't just slash government programs and institutions; but, rather, sensibly, phase them out over time. It really is just like curing a drug addict!

[adampeart1]

Of course that idiot would be the one conducting the polls... He and many other talking heads try so very hard to justify what Obama and his administration are doing, yet when they do they sound like a bunch of bumbling morons. Can they not FEEL the power of truth when it's being offered to them on a platter... Ron Paul is a very strong man... I would just throw my hands up and give up on the ignorant tool bags because it's very exhausting trying to convince people with the truth.

[rockhuddy]

Our central bankers are not just incompetent, they are evil. Their goal is to ruin our economy to the point where we will accept the IMF's global currency- we must not let that happen.

[Carlitos1010]

It all sums up to that rockhuddy,.. very well said.

[melquideses]

You can't be more clear
