I was asleep until I found out about Pat Tillman and then Bradley Manning and was so outraged that Obama was not ensuring that Manning were treated as a hero or at least a neutral party for blowing the whistle on war crimes. After watching this Ron Paul has my vote no matter who is on the ballot and further more I would take a bullet for Ron Paul.

there is not much that should be classified, if anything at all. the government is a servant of The People. if they keep secrets from us, they will control us with them. they will use "secrets" to scare us into believing whatever they want us to believe. this is inevitable. look at history. The People created the government to protect our liberties from powerful corporations and banks who would eventually infringe on our property and persons. instead the government chose to get in bed with them.

@bushgg12 I would leave my child with Ron Paul and I too, would take a bullet for him. 4Liberty.

@CaptFitzbattleaxe You do realize that when you use ad hominem attacks it's equivalent to saying "I have nothing, you win, but I can always insult you personally instead of debating facts which I will lose to"...right?

Typical Ron Pauletry beating up on the ignorant. From this video Ron Paul has given Manning status of whistle blower when the fact is Manning has to stand trial for his guilt or innocence. So Paul wants to be the Judge and Jury. Ron Paul reminds me of the teacher in the movie 'All quiet on the Western Front'. But he is just the opposite, against law and order. And like a bad teacher he uses his status to corrupt and sway fledgeling good young people to agree and give him money.

@shotsky94 "I dont want a president who thinks its okay for military men to give out whatever classified information he thinks is okay just from the random whims of his emotions."

Give out the wrong information, be prosecuted.

Be a whistleblower, prosecute the criminals.

Classifying information in order to protect criminals is nothing more than a way to protect criminals. Why is our government classifying information to protect criminals?

[fuzzywzhe]

If the information is classified to hide corruption, then no, people shouldn't be punished for leaving that classified information.

What Bradly Manning showed was that we have a bunch of incompetent, corrupt assholes running multiple nations. Did this end the world?
