Congressman Ron Paul talks about how waterboarding and other forms of torture are clear violations of the rule of law as well as morality in this Texas Straight Talk from May 25, 2009.

"The governments own actions and operations in torturing people, and in acting on illegally obtained and unreliable information to kill and capture, are the most radicalizing forces at work today, not any religion, nor the fact that we are rich and free. The fact that our government engages in evil behavior under the auspices of the American people is what poses the greatest threat to the American people, and it must not be allowed to stand."
--Ron Paul

Please consider changing the title. It makes it look like the video is about Ron Paul torturing the rule of law.

I had this dream today that i went to school with a Ron Paul Revolution shirt and the teacher without an explanation told me ''take off the shirt or get suspended''. But i stood up and refused.

I dont think that Ron Paul is a real politician.

He makes way to much sense, AND he keeps backing up what he says with evidence!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!

I mean really, what kind of politician does that!

He even gives me the impression that he would keep his word if he got into office, would be reliable AND honest.

Nah he cant be real at all.

Ron Paul is the only top-tier Republican that refused to raise his hand when asked with a group of Republicans if they would approve waterboarding under some circumstances. Gary Johnson did too, but he is truly not a viable candidate.

Register Republican, and give us a 2012 election, in which American values of truth and respect are upheld. Paul is polling even with Obama in match-ups--he can win!

Ron paul will never be elected. You have the right to vote for him, but know you're wasting your vote (Unless you think it's cool to see him get 1.4% of the vote rather than 1.3% In that case go ahead and vote for him.
