...according to Jeff Deist, Paul’s chief of staff.

I wonder what religion this guy practices?

Anyways, I know that for Ron Paul it will come down to whether or not she supports bringing the troops home from Afghanistan and Iraq. I don't think it's likely that she supports ending the wars, as is probably the case with all Republican candidates unfortunately.

I support ending the wars with massive firepower. Applied until the objective of total surrender is met. This namby pamby nation building routine of winning hearts and minds is absurd.

I spent a long time thinking about Ron Paul and his stance on the war on terror and have come to a conclusion. He is correct, this is something we have to completely rethink as a strategy. We are doing nothing but expending capital, and on some of the same ground that destroyed the USSR. I now firmly believe that we need to bring nearly all troops home, and when force is needed to be applied, use a HUGE HAMMER....then bring them home again. It should not take 10 years to reach an objective. If it does, that objective is not to win, but to do exactly what GW said he was against, NATION BUILDING..... That is not our job, take care of our own borders, people and the economy.
