Why should American Muslims vote for Ron Paul? How will he help the Ummah?

How YOU can HELP Palestine and END American Sponsored Oppression

Assalaamu Alaikum Brothers and Sisters,

You can help by sharing and sending this note to all the Muslims you know as well as by registering as a Republican and voting for Ron Paul in the Republican primaries in your state. Here’s why: Muslims have an unique window of opportunity for the 2008 election. There is a candidate running as a Republican that would work to completely cut off the funding to Israel, remove ALL US troops from Arab lands, and repeal the Patriot Act. He’s a Republican with Libertarian views named Ron Paul.

Till now Muslims have not had an American Presidential candidate that really suited their best interests. This election is unique in that we have a man running as a Republican that speaks the truth. Much of the our foreign policy in the Middle East has been influenced heavily by AIPAC, the pro-Israeli lobby, to the detriment of Muslims in the Middle East. As American Muslims, we are blessed to live in the US where we have the freedom to let our policymakers know how we feel about foreign policy; we may not have the power of an influential lobby but we do have the right to vote and every single vote counts. We know the current policies in the Middle East are failing, not only making it less safe in the world but hurting and killing innocent Muslims, which our media callously calls collateral damage. It is our duty as Muslims to follow the truth regardless of how futile it may seem. Ron Paul is the only candidate that does not seem to be swayed by the influential lobbies that the other candidates are catering to.

If you’d like to read some of his quotes, I’ve pasted them below. You can also find his speeches on YouTube here: click Remember, the top-tier candidates OBAMA, HILLARY, GIULIANI, EDWARDS, ROMNEY, and MCCAIN are PRO-ISRAEL, PRO-NUKES and PRO-PREEMPTIVE WAR. DO NOT VOTE FOR THEM. They will not help us. Brothers and Sisters, please vote for Ron Paul in the Republican Primaries. It’s our obligation to come together and try to stand up for not only our best interests, but the best interests of the entire Ummah. Living here in the West, we are obligated to do so. Otherwise, we are partly to blame for all the actions our government takes in our name.

American Muslims must RISE and UNITE. Let your voice be heard. InshAllah (God-willing), we can spread the word and make a difference.

Paul's clearly the Umma's and the "People's" choice in all intenet polls.

Yes, these are actual campaign signs, ads, bumper sticker. The anti-Israel ad has been pulled from the original Muslim Flyer DONATIONS Helpful (FINAL) context, but nothing really disappears from the internet. Bumper sticker

You left out:

Ron Paul believes in Martians.

These are just a few of my "favorite" posted comments from the ronpaulforums thread, re: the damning "Muslims for Ron Paul" bumper sticker:

"islam is actually very libertarian..."

"whats wrong with Al Jazeera? its a credible news source [...]"

[...] the good muslim people can't be headlined when we are campaigning in crusader territory."

(... and, yes: all spelling and punctuation is stet. They really, truly ARE all that illiterate over there.) ;)

[elpadre]

you are aware that the Muslims are well organized and vote as a block. They have succeeded in several places to be the difference in election - Virginia comes to mind.

My home state of Minnesota also. I am glad I moved down south.

Take a look at the number of groups, over 1,000, on http://www.meetup.com/topics/ under politics. I’ve convinced Ron Paul is a spoiler, a plant, whatever you want to call him. How can a person who espouses such ideas as he does be a serious candidate? Because he is being encouraged and funded by the Dems, perhaps in concert with the Moslems. We’ve all noticed the polls that show him winning debates when clearly he isn’t, and I believe it’s because of organizations that are flying under the radar. I have my tinfoil hat firmly in place as well as my flame proof fire fighting suit, so go take a look at the organization and see what you think. I don’t dismiss him lightly as I can still remember how we got Clinton and it was the same program.

[DesScorp]

Ron Paul! Stop the spending! End the war! Push the Jews into the sea!

[trisham]

Bump!

[Antonio C]

I had never heard of Paul until the other day and now I wish I hadn’t. He’s certifiably insane. How can this man be allowed to serve in Congress?

EXCLUSIVE: SPECIFIC CONTRIBUTION BY LEADING NEO-NAZI TO RON PAUL CAMPAIGN IDENTIFIED

http://lonestartimes.com/2007/10/25/rpb1/

LONESTARTIMES.COM EXCLUSIVE!!!

Must credit LoneStarTimes.com!!!

That means YOU, mainstream media producer/reporter/outlet!

————————-

A LoneStarTimes.com investigation has conclusively established that a leading figure in the American neo-Nazi / White-Supremacist movement has provided financial support to Ron Paul’s 2008 Presidential campaign.

The individual in question is Don Black, the founder, owner and operator of Stormfront, a “white power” website that both professional journalists and watch-dog groups have identified as the premier English-language racist/hate-site on the Internet.

Previous LST posts have focused on banner “widgets” appearing on the front-page of Stormfront. It is important to emphasize that these are NOT “advertisements” placed on Stormfront BY the Paul campaign, but rather publicly-available graphics that Stormfront’s owner has chosen to place himself, with links directly to Paul’s donation page.

Nevertheless, LST has in the past several weeks raised a series of questions for the Paul campaign; specifically–

1. Can Paul confirm that the donation widgets appearing on Stormfront are the result of the site owner’s actions, not the campaign’s?
2. Will Paul take measures to block Stormfront as a referring URL to his own website, so that no future donations can possibly flow into his campaign from a site that serves as the on-line nexus of neo-Nazism?
3. Will Paul ask his own web-staff to trace past donations that were made by anyone arriving at his campaign’s webpage from Stormfront, so that these contributions can be rejected?
4. Will Paul explore if there are any legal actions available to try to remove his donation widget from Stormfront, and if so pursue them?
5. At the very least, will Paul personally state publicly, vigorously and unmistakably that he rejects the support of white supremacists, and that he will not knowingly tolerate their involvement with his campaign in any form or to any degree?

LoneStarTimes.com’s managing editor Matt Bramanti left multiple messages last week for officials in Paul’s national campaign press office seeking comment. None were returned.

In the interim, a number of grassroots supporters of Paul’s campaign– including many honorable and regular readers of LST– have argued that…

• It is unfair to hold Paul responsible for receiving political support from racists/neo-Nazis if that support was unsolicited by Paul;
• Paul hasn’t, in fact, solicited white-supremacist support; AND
• Paul’s campaign has no practical way of knowing whether or not a specific financial contribution made has come from a neo-Nazi.

These abstract debates are now moot– a contribution to the Paul campaign by a known white-supremacist has been identified.

The evidence is as follows:

• Black proudly and openly identifies himself as Stormfront’s guiding hand, and publishes a contact address on the Internet– PO Box 6637, West Palm Beach, FL, 33405
• A search by LST of public databases indicates that there is only one “Don Black” residing in West Palm Beach, Florida, zip code 33405
• A 7/16/01 USA Today article identifies Black’s wife as being named “Chloe”
• That same article identifies Chloe as being the ex-wife of close Black associate and former “Grand Wizard” of the Ku Klux Klan, David Duke
• Minutes of a 9/7/07 City of West Palm Beach code-compliance hearing identify “Chloe H. Duke” as owning a residential property located at 203 Lakeland Drive
• According to Federal Election Commission records, on 9/30/07 the Ron Paul presidential campaign received a $500 contribution from a Mr. Don Black, who lists his address as 203 Lakeland Drive and identifies his occupation as “self-employed/website manager”

In light of these facts, we believe our previously asked questions continue to have merit.

A final note– it is traditional in political campaigns for candidates to return contributions from “toxic” donors once sufficient public scrutiny and outcry has been generated.

The difficulty in this instance is that if Ron Paul returns these funds to Mr. Black, all he will have done is given a neo-Nazi $500 more dollars with which to spread his psychotic bile.

We would therefore like to suggest that the Ron Paul campaign donate Black’s $500 to any of the following worthy recipients–

• United States Holocaust Memorial Museum ($500 would make Dr. Paul a “sustaining member”)
• One Family Fund (which works to rebuild the shattered lives of Israeli victims of Arab terror; $500 would make Dr. Paul a “healer”)
• Aish Ha’Torah (dynamic Jewish educational foundation; Aish donations are set according to funky Kabbalah-based giving levels–$18, $36, $180, etc.–but for $500 Dr. Paul could simultaneously become a “Friend of the Wall” and a “Gate of Wisdom,” which would entitle him to both a Sterling Silver Menorah bookmark with certificate of authenticity from the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, and a Western Wall Images CD with over 500 unique photos of life at the Western Wall– perfect “re-gifting” items for the fast-approaching Hanukkah season)

We try to be helpful.

See #22 PING!

[Grunthor]

I always wondered what that protest was over, did someone see a nekkid female ankle?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

YEAH! PAUL’S A KOOK! GIMME FIVE! ON THE BLACK SIDE! IN THE HOLE...YOU GOT SOUL!

[eboyer]

what a bunch of idiots.

Fixing our monetary disaster is the last think extremists should be wishing for.

Not to mention giving us back our ability to defend ourselves.

How does a plane get hijacked with toe nail clippers when the pilots can be armed?

[Radical Ron Paul Supporter]

So what! Why do you want U.S. tax payers to fund Israel?!

The Constitution doesn’t authorize aid to Israel or any other country. Keep your hands out of my wallet!
