Audio is terrible.

[RandPaulsupporter]

Yes, the quality isn't anything to write home about. I can't take credit for it, as I have ripped this from a CD. Thanks for watching.

If we dont piss them off then they wont try to kill us. You can have armed men in a nation and remain gentle giants. It doesnt work that way.

hmmm i don't like his stance on foreign policy. he still gives way too much power to the president. he should listen to his father. president does not have authority to act unilaterally. and no, the only problem with afghanistan was not that we didn't go in soon enough, but that we went in AT ALL. being there does not solve ANYTHING.

[audioX1]

he means the campaign obviously

[alistairproductions]

he should not say what the ron paul movement WAS about. It's what it IS about. It's what your daddy STILL DOES

Yeah, civilian defense forces in lieu of enormous professional armies don't work at all! I mean, just look at Switzerland, they have a militia and they've been invaded so many times they're almost a third world country!

Oh wait, actually they're the happiest, most prosperous, and most secure nation in Europe, and haven't fought a war in over 200 years. So much for that theory.

When Jefferson made that statement, there weren't any nuclear warheads on missles with the capacity to reach across the continents. We need a strong military force. we should be in strategic areas and we should be a gentle giant. Deterent to war is kin to deterent to being robbed or raped... if you have the ability to kick their butts, you don't get robbed or raped.
