Ron Paul is THE reason I'm registered to vote.

[solidoxygen8008]

I've never felt sorrow for the Republican party, until I saw this. How the hell did Republicans let this awesome man, get replaced by that freaking hack job McCain. I think many Democrats would support a candidate like Ron Paul. I guess Paul was just too intelligent for the typical Right wing conservative.

[guinnesstrail]

I am no Republican but the man offers sensible solutions--could he do worse?

[wunderbeast]

@parttimehuman they both support corporate bailouts toward institutions that profit at taxpayer expense, and expanding the military in the middle east. i don't disagree with you concerning social issues, but ron paul believes you have the freedom to choose. he may be a creationist but he would never mandate that you believe what he believes in. let's look at obama who continues bush's faith-based initiatives. you think i wanna pay for that as an agnostic?

[musicalidea]

@solidoxygen8008 You think it's just a matter of public opinion. Think again. The corporate hegemons that control the GOP & the DNC would never let some1 like Paul or Sanders come to the fore, no matter how reasonable their warnings, or how popular or massive their following. Wall Street's 2 parties use genuine populists like Paul & Sanders to appeal to the hopes their constituencies, while pushing a wholly unfavorable agenda through the apparatus: e.g. NAFTA, Iraq War, TARP, Tax deal.

Bill Moyer and Ron Paul - now this is a treat!

[halolamer]

I'm in tx14 east houston, I vote for this man every 4 years for a Representative seat in Congress.

I would rather vote for him as president

[Slaytanic79]

@Tippersnore you have to think though, Ron Paul is in the system and he seems nutty? Most people like him that aren't in the system are seen a nutty, butt he is in the system.

He has been in the system for 30 or more years, and seen it run. A conspiratorial-nut this is funny yes you support him but such a label i believe is undeserving. He sees and experiances what we don't and tells people about it for the truth that is there

[Tippersnore]

Ron Paul is brave and quite sensible regarding US foreign policy but a bit Libertarian/conspiratorial-nut­ty on domestic issues like First Amendment rights, abortion, student loans, taxation, and monetary policy. The US needs many more voices like his in Congress.

[wunderbeast]

@wunderbeast is continuing the patriot act that yes, bush started. and guantanamo may be off the radar but there are secret prisons in bagram, iraq. he also had the power to send 40000 troops to afghanistan without congressional approval (again, like bush). the same week that he made a speech in cairo that was reaching out to the muslim world, predator drones killed scores of innocents in peshawar, pakistan. i care little of political affiliation, i just want what's right.

[wunderbeast]

@parttimehuman there is a passage in ron paul's book "revolution" that really moved me. i think he witnessed a late term abortion in which the fetus was left gasping for air outside of the woman's body. i guess i'm pro-choice still but i'm definitely against late term abortions. while people wait to decide whether to have a child or not, that child is growing inside. better to be respectful of life and do it earlier than later. also, as far as "authoritarian", i hate to be frank but obama (cont)

[wunderbeast]

@parttimehuman hey man, no worries! well, the republican party has lost its way. the only reason i would consider registering as one is to vote for this man if he decides to run in 2012. i'm actually independent leaning libertarian. i don't believe government has a right to define what marriage is or to impose religious beliefs on the population. i don't support the bailouts and i think clean energy solutions should be determined by the market. i used to be pro-choice but now on the fence (cont)
