Dear friend,
Our American way of life is under attack. And it is up to us to save it.
The world's elites are busy forming a North American Union. If they succeed, as they did in forming the European Union, the good ol’ USA will only be a memory. We cannot let that happen.
The UN wants to confiscate our firearms and impose a global tax. The UN elites want to control the oceans with the Law of the Sea Treaty. And they want to use our military to police the world.
Our right to own and use property is fading because bureaucrats and special interests are abusing eminent domain.
Our right to educate our children as we choose is under assault. "No Child Left Behind" is seeing to that. And our right to say "no" to forced mental screening of our school-aged children is nearly gone.
The elites gave us a national ID card. They also gave us the most misnamed legislation in history: The Patriot Act. And these same people are pushing to give amnesty to illegal immigrants and erase our national borders.
Record government debt is putting a burden on our children and grandchildren that is shameful.
Yes. Our American way of life is under attack. And it's understandable that many are concerned, even discouraged, about the kind of country our children and grandchildren will inherit.
But we must never let discouragement become surrender.
One reason I am NOT discouraged is because I know I am not fighting alone. Each day I head out I know that you and thousands of other patriotic, freedom-loving Americans are right beside me, standing brave and true for what is good and right.
I need your help now, more than ever, to save the country we love...for the people we love.
My wife Carol and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary early this year. We are proud parents of five children and 18 grandchildren. We love them very much, as I know you love your family.
As a U.S. congressman, I always think about the well-being of my family and of all the families of our great nation when I cast a vote or introduce legislation. I also remember that I have sworn a solemn oath to uphold and protect the Constitution of the United States.
For me, upholding that oath is the first and best way to preserve and protect the blessed American way of life for our children and grandchildren.
And now you know why I'm running for president of the United States.
Sincerely,
Ron
His message might have more impact if he would use “strippers for ru” to give the message....
If only he would stop the neocon crap, I would vote for him.
I agree. We must see the War on Terrorism through to the end.
No mention of the islamo-scum that threaten to destroy us.
But he did mention the patriot Act, while failing to note that many of those who voted for it and support it are also the MOST vocal on our loss of sovereignty. Including two of his colleagues, Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo.
When Hunter was in law school, Paul was already in Congress supporting the military & U.S. sovereignty.
Statement by the Founder of Free Republic
Please read and compare Jim's statement with Paul's statement posted above.
Ron Paul’s ideas of supporting the military are not exactly a selling point.
Does the above post sound like the rantings of an anti-war leftist or neocon conspiracy kook to you? Do you agree that the National ID, NAU, UN, socialist education, central bank, and regressive income tax are all real or should I take the green pill and wake up as if nothing happened?
Who?
You know Jim Rob has spoken out against Ron Paul on several posts and does not support him.
Maybe so now, but he has always been pro-U.S. sovereignty, more so than Hunter and Tancredo combined.
I understand that, which is why I excerpted the part about the borders and sovereignty. Which means that Paul still supports 90% of what Jim said and he'll still be better on foreign policy and the war than the Dims & some of the GOP candidates.
Maybe you should ping Jim when you talk about what he believes. Shouldn’t he have an opportunity to comment?
It'll be the year 2050 and you guys will still be complaining about the need to "stay the course." While I have always disagreed with Paul on an immediate withdrawal, I sure in the heck don't want any permanent bases or long-term commitment either in the Middle East.
None of the Democrats though are in favor of strict border security or a strong national defense. Paul would at least secure the country, and warn the ragheads if they ever think about attacking us again it'll be their asses. Tell me, if the race boiled down to Paul or a Dem you wouldn't boogie to the voting booth for Paul just because a portion of his foreign policy sucks.
BTTT
This Airman’s Brothers and Sisters that are in uniform today PROTECT AMERICA like we ALL did. The UN can SHOVE OFF !!!!! They Also cannot have our Navy to police the oceans because they are AMERICA’S NAVY. God Bless All my Brothers and Sisters.
Stand down there....
Ron Paul is a lot like Louis Farrakhan. 90% of what he says makes a lot of sense...then he drops that other 10% on you, and you look at him like he’s an alien that just landed.
Ron Paul’s ideas of supporting the military are not exactly a selling point.

I am curious, do you ever read your own posts and responses?
And that was a rhetorical question.
Moreso than Hunter? Where do you get that? No one fought harder and louder than Hunter did trying to stop NAFTA, the WTO, or the ridiculous trade agreements with China. Hunter opposed the LOST treaty in the 1980s and he opposes it now. Hunter has been FAR superior than Paul in trying to stop the waves of illegals invading our land. Hunter was an advocate for withdrawing from stupid arms control treaties well before it was fashionable. Your argument does not stand up to scrutiny. That is not to say Paul is not excellent on issues of sovereignty.
Stand down there....
I don’t quite understand that, and I don’t think I will stand down. God Bless America and All who have taken care of America since 10 November 1775!
“Does the above post sound like the rantings of an anti-war leftist or neocon conspiracy kook to you? “
Umm, it’s not the “neo-cons” that are the conspiracy kooks, Mr. North American Union. The enemies they point to are real, and do things like fly planes into buildings.
You've been reasonably level-headed thus far. But you must have been high when you wrote that nonsensical statement.
Jane Fonda supported the military too, unfortunately it was the North Vietnamese army
Sure, I’d be happy to vote for Ron Paul because of the 90% that’s good. But I ain’t supporting him in the primaries, because he ain’t right on the war. How would “Turn tail and run” and “pull out all our bases from the Middle East” leave the terrorists quivering with fear??
It’ll be the year 2050 and you guys will still be complaining about the need to “stay the course.”
Great news is the surge will be working.
Back in the former United States, english will be a second language.
Side question? Who threw bombs that 22, 23 and 24 had to be yanked?
They were 3/4 of a multiple reply, probably caused by a system hiccup.
Very kind of you to update.
Paul has BEEN THERE, in Congress in the late 1970s advocating what Hunter was doing in the 1980s. He was truly ahead of his time. Yes, and he also supported Reagan’s military buildup and SDI alongside with Hunter. Maybe he wasn’t out there as Hunter was, but he supported it nonetheless. He couldn’t have opposed NAFTA or the WTO or been a hawk on border security as good as Hunter because he wasn’t in Congress from 1985 - 1997, he lost to Gramm in the Senate primary and returned to medical practice. The fact remains, is that he knew all of this stuff was going to come to a head while he was an outcast in the horrible late 70s.
Maybe so, but I guarantee you in the next few elections, you're going to see a new generation of conservative-libertarian candidates calling themselves "Ron Paul Republicans." The Congressional candidate in Georgia, for example, ran as a strict constitutionalist and won. He'll go deep in the primaries to the point where the GOP will have to concede and let him speak at the convention or something.
Be kind to your nice Truther friends
'cause Ron Paul might be somebody's brother
Or uncle who thinks it's the age
When tri-cornered hats were the rage.
You don't have to be nuts to support
Someone as pathetic as Ron...
But it helps !
Yes, I’ve read Paul’s entire record. It was mostly pretty good. I particularly like his attempts to get rid of the UN.
But no one that does not recognize that the islamo dirtballs need to be defeated on all fronts will ever get my support. We are going to be at war with Iran soon, and we cannot have CIC that does not believe in defeating our enemies.
There are mixed feelings on this matter. i certainly have them.
Recall that Among the British, Indian, and five Israeli citizens, Iranian Citizens also died in the Twin Towers on 9/11. That would be Iranian Citizens in good standing with Iran.
In light of the fact that Ahmadinewackjob is a Shiite, from a fundamentalist Shiite 'republic' governed by Sharia law, he's probably not very happy with al Qaeda either (they're Sunis).
Yes, their government is composed of terrorist b@$tards, Ahmadinewackjob foremost among them, but Iran is not happy with their people getting messed with.
On the other hand, this guy would probably use the forum of 'ground zero' and time for more of the Jew Bashing that he's known for, probably with some "9/11 Truther" nonsense with his own particular spin.
To the rest of your post, just who is Iran...a nation which would cease to exist a few minutes after the US made the decision to terminate it's membership in the world...a threat to? No threat to the US, that's for certain. In the event of hostilities, they loose badly, and in hours.
In the event of some sort of nuclear exchange, they loose in a few minutes.We still have ballistic missiles that are far more accurate than Scuds, with range to reach anywhere in the world.
Hell, Iran wasn't even a serious threat to Iraq back in the 80's, and you know what a military genius Sadaam was </sarcasm>
“Does the above post sound like the rantings of an anti-war leftist or neocon conspiracy kook to you?”
No, and thats why I made the post I did.
RP does a lot of talking, but Duncan Hunter not only talks. Mr. Hunter does.
Rep. Hunter introduced a bill demanding that Mexican transport vehicles must abide by the same rules and regs that domestic transport carriers must follow.
Rep. Hunter openly called for the resignation of Harry Reid. He wrote a letter to President Bush asking him not to sign any papers while in his attendance at the secretive SPP meeting in Ontario recently.
Rep. Hunter voted against NAFTA. He wrote the bill authorizing the double border fence to keep illegal aliens out of our country.
Yes, Rep. Hunter has been doing rather than talking for over 26 years now.
Rep Hunter has alerted the country to the self-destructive trade policy we now have with China, adding billions to our national debt each year. He wants to renegotiate that agreement. He has a plan to bring good manufacturing jobs back to our shores.
Ron Paul wants an immediate pull out of our troops in Iraq, which would lead to utter chaos and bloodletting in that country. Everything we have fought for there would be lost, thus nullifying the reason so many of our brave troops have given life and limb.
Rep. Hunter has been responsible, while serving as chair and now ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee, for making sure our troops have the equipment needed to do their jobs over there.
Rep. Hunter is 100% for staying in Iraq until their army can be trained to protect the new Iraqi government; and for funding our troops fully until they reach the VICTORY for which they have been fighting. This to Duncan Hunter is paramount. Then can our troops come home to stay.
These are but a few of the fine accomplishments Rep. Hunter has achieved in his years in Congress. He holds the promise of restoring the country to sanity. He is well versed in military matters, and experienced in foreign affairs, both imperative qualities necessary in our next CIC.
I like Hunter. He just needs to be viable.
>I like Hunter. He just needs to be viable.
Just make the decision not to vote RINO, and help others resolve not to do so also.
“Viability” of actual patriot candidates will follow naturally.
“No Child Left Behind” is part of the Bush legacy, also voted for by FDT, and this Ron Paul character would do everything he could to repeal it.
I know some of you folks write off this Ron Paul as a kook, but we need to fight against him strongly. Cause if he was to win, he would try to dismantle all the fine things the GOP has done over the last 8 years.
I bet this Ron Paul would want to get rid of Medicare Part D too, another fine piece of GOP legislation.
The Paulistinians are posting most of their propaganda at night now.
I'm guessing, your average truther and nutball is just waking up now anyway.
