Your post reflects the same attitude we saw in 2008. The GOP establishment is against Ron Paul because he is too conservative, and he would begin to dismantle the grand and glorious Federal government that was built by the sweat of the Republican brow.
If Ron Paul would have received the republican nomination in 2008, we would now be enjoying a much improved America, one without so much government and debt.
Instead, the republicans nominated a guaranteed loser rather than attempt real change.
How’d that work out for you?
He’s not too conservative. I already said that in the article. He’s too damn libertarian. Dismantling the federal government isn’t the problem, it’s becoming isolationist, cutting our military presence, allowing drugs and prostitution and a host of other things.
If Ron Paul had won the GOP nomination, there’s no way in hell that we could have won the 2008 election. Some old little fruitcake against the Hope and Change of Obama? Oh wait, that’s McCain too. So no, he wouldn’t of won. No one could have won that was in the GOP field.
The Republicans nominated a loser, but that’s not who the conservatives nominated.
