RON PAUL CONSERVATIVE? RUBBISH! HE'S A GENIUS! 2/2

Ron maybe pro-life personally, but so is Hilary Clinton! Ron Paul if elected President wouldn't illegalise abortion, he would let the people decide at the State level instead of the Federal. There is further no evidence to suggest that his policies are homophobic; he believes Marriage is not a Constitutional issue, let the States decide!

Ron Paul is a great supporter of Friedrich Hayek and has a picture of him in his office. Hayek wrote an essay, 'Why I Am Not A Conservative'; it criticises Conservatism's inability to adapt to changing realities or to offer a positive programme. Ron Paul is not ideologically a Conservative; there is a big difference from calling yourself a Conservative with a capital "C", and conservative with a small "c" which in his case supports America's Constitutional heritage. America has increased the size of government, intervenes in foreign affairs and fuses religion and state in a de facto way. The meaning therefore signifies that the current status quo has gone off course and we need to go back the constitution!

"right wing" and "left wing" are dead! The terms are now meaningless! It is pat of the old paradigm, for politics in practice to step in line with the paradigm shift, elect Ron Paul!

Ronald Reagan said:

Libertarianism is the FOUNDATION OF CONSERVATISM

[AndrewFraserEsq]

Conservatism is much older than libertarianism. The old conservatives wanted to keep the acien regime. Conservatism is inherently reactionary and formed out of attacking those with ideas that were against the status quo.

[jfcemporium]

you are a douchbag

[WhoIsJohnGalt4279]

Yes you are very close. Both Republicans and Democrats advocate slightly different forms of near total government.

Libertarian believe that the governments major role is to protect the rights of the people and that the constitution was put into place to limit thier power.

Try this vid, it will break down exactly what the difference is and why libertarians are totally different thinkers who don't get caught up in the left/right dichotomy.

I'm a huge Ron Paul fan even though I'm a UK citizen, the MSM in America deliberately reduced his airtime because they knew he spoke the truth, he's completely outside the machine politics that dominated the US election.

Totally agreed with your comments about how the word liberal has now come to mean almost socialist, good observation you only need to look at the Lib-Dem manifesto to see how correct that is.

[Freecell5671]

It's so awsome someone in the UK actually is a Libertarian! (good looking chap too) My ancestors came from UK within the last century and I love Britain and would love to move back. I am just not a big fan of how there country is run now. Ron Paul is great, but won't ever be elected in USA.

You need to have more tags for this video. More stupid ass americans who don't follow politics need to know these sorts of things. Gd video tell your queen to visit us or we will stop using our (your...) central bank okay?

[rulllar]

if it's so well written why can't ron paul read it? It says that STATES are not allowed to print money, not that the federal gov isn't.

Yet he keeps claiming that all monies are constitutionally based on gold or silver whereas it specifically says that STATES must only use existing currency or gold/silver, another segment it says the federal gov DOES have the power. So clearly your case is flawed to say RP is a true constitutionalist when he fails to follow it's "well written plain english".

[diggingpitt]

Part of the confusion comes from what constituted the ancien regime. In the United States and to a lesser extent in England, individual rights and freedom have a long history. A conservative in America may be "conserving" individual rights and economic freedom while in a place like Russia or Spain, conservatives would be protecting religious statism.

[diggingpitt]

The constitution is a widely available document, well written in plain english. The fact that the supreme court has sanctioned it's violation does not change what it says.

[rulllar]

The role of the supreme court is to keep the government within the boundaries of the law. That is the whole point of "Checks and balances".

If over a period of decades constitutional experts (which supreme court judges have to be) accepted it in majority, then clearly they were deemed not unconstitutional.

Ron Paul is not the sole, or highest, authority on the constitution or it's interpretation.
