I agree with XOmniverse on almost everything. I agree with most of his points about Ron Paul. I like Ron Paul a lot, his views are very anarchic compared to the next guy and I like him exactly for that reason. His chances of getting elected are 0%.

Even if he got the votes, something would prevent this from happening, anything. And if he was president he would being fighting congress continuously. Congress is evil from the stand point of non coercion, but I'm an anarchist.

I don't think the point of the video was that Ron Paul is bad (he said he was mediocre but thats not the point) the point was more that the culture in ameirca isn't ready for what Paul is talking about. To revolutionize the governmental system back to its rooms a change in culture and preception must be initiated because party politics and hand outs have become common place in the general political discourse in america.

You're probably correct, there were two important factors in why I thought the original video was in fact a waste of time...

1- the popularity ie the rEVOLution and

2- anarchy is not the solution

A return to restrained federal government is the solution and because it is written in law facilitates a broader acceptance thus more likely to bring about change.

Um the guy is a racist...Google his 90s newsletter where he says the race riots were caused by the blacks wanting to pick up their welfare checks. He also said nasty things about gays isrealis and AIDS victims. Ron Paul denies writing and reading it much like Alberto Gonzoles. I don't know how something can be published with your name on it and you have no clue about it. Especially if its your own newsletter.

Geeeeeez get OFF this old story- its b.s. Dr. Paul has utterly dissed this. Find some other reason, k? This is a non issue.

@AllPwrflSteve He will not be the establisment's nominee. That is how I know you are wrong about him. It is the establishment that made these arguments to which you are referring to. They always knock down the ones that will actually change something. I just want you to know that you are wrong.

[AllPwrflSteve]

@187dAFeD Clever retort. No really...

[187dAFeD]

@AllPwrflSteve If you cannot understand how then perhaps you should not vote.

It's not an opinion. It's an observation.

drug laws are targeted against minorities. From the earliest days of drug laws where opium was banned because of the fears about white women being seduced by chinese (fact) or weed being banned because of fears about crazed negroes(fact). By the drug laws a kilo of cocaine, which is known as a white persons drug because of its high cost will render less than half of the time for the same amount of crack which is a black persons drugs. The history channel did a very good show on the topic.

[AllPwrflSteve]

How is it a non issue. Even when he was denying it he says "I'm the only candidate who care about minorities because I want I'm against harsh drug laws" I agree there always dirty dealings during elections and it could be false, but if you're gonna make a blanket statement like "All minorities suffer from tough drug laws." I kinda tend to believe you're a racist.
