Ron Paul could change the world if given the chance!

[TheVonhammer]

Ron Paul is the MAN! He could make such a difference if given the chance

Dear Americans...can you some how knock some sense into your brains and make this guy the President of your country?? from Pakistan

[gulbirk]

I agree with Ron Paul here, partly. The world bank hasnt done much at all to improve the living standards nor the economy of third world nation. But the exploitation going on could not have been possible if it wasnt for private companies.

Usually I find most of Ron Paul's stances to be well-intentioned and true (as during a Republican debate when he was the only candidate to suggest that Occupy Wall Street might be a product of something larger than personal failures and youthful naiveté, citing the systemic failures of the economy) but flawed in their rationalization (as when he traced such failure to overregulation rather than an anarchic financial sector and rampant speculation).

But in this clip I have to say: way to go Ron

[FirstWorldPresident]

Businesses based in a given country should not be permitted by the laws of its own country to exploit the labour and resources of another country where that other country's laws do not have the same labour and resource protection laws of the home country.

Ironically RP doesn't stand a chance due to LACK of gov intervention: only the fairness doctrine, lobbying regulation, and publicly funded voting could see RP elected. Right now he has no chance. The people who own the system don't like him, not one bit.

[Tinacia420]

He will never be given the chance unless he is somehow working both sides. I like him too, I'm just not sure how he even got this far to voice "his opinions" on national media manipulated TV

[nicesocialgirl]

shut down the world bank

[ianhowe007]

The right wing talks shit about this guy, just shows how dumb mainstream conservatives are

[mattsnow81]

Ron Paul is so uncorruptible and makes so much sense that the mainstream media are trying to hide him!

[DevilBoyVex]

@timcopeland1 you judge a person's age based on maturity? There are more immature adults I bet than there are mature ones. If i am immature I would be still most likely above the voting age
