‘Is Free Republic going to be a propaganda forum for “defeatist” and “blame America” Ron Paul?
The admin moderators should decide on this.’
Hmmmm. I disagree, its worthwhile to examine all the candidates, even those that haven’t a snowballs chance in hell of gaining the nomination. All politics can be simplified down to ‘propaganda’.
Let them come....say what they have to say....and if it gets redundent, or leads to flame wars....then the mods should consider limits, but not til then.
Freedom of speech, freedom to express political opinion is a fundemental concept the nation was built on.
I don’t see a problem with debating Ron Paul; he’s got some good ideas domestically but is a national defense one-man wrecking crew.
As one with libertarian leanings, and frequent third party voter, I find Dr. Paul's stance on security & WOT abhorrent, and could never support him, no matter how much I share so many of his views.
That said, I surely do not want Free Republic to be censored by anyone, (except JimRob, whose house it is), including you.
Any other people, topics, ideologies, etc you would like removed from our non-discerning eyes?
Is the stated mission of Freerepublic still “We’re working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America.”? If so, then Freerepublic is the forum for Dr. Paul’s message since he’s the only candidate who is also working toward that objective.
I believe JimRob has already decided on that (and his decisions overrule those of admin mods). Libertarians have been welcome on his site since long before you showed up. I imagine the Republican liberty caucus is even more welcome. Why don’t you go ahead and ask him your questions.
