Watch the full video and listen to a man that did not get rich by being stupid.
I have no doubt that some will want to bring up his previous partnership with George Soros.
If that is the only justification anyone can provide that we should not listen to this man, then I must ask, why should anyone listen to you? What relevance would any of your opinions have? Surely many of you work with liberals in your everyday jobs too; does that make you a liberal? Does that mean that your ideas are bad for America? Use your heads here.
Wake up America! We've been sold out.
What a silly post!
Well at least he’s not endorsing the Beast.
Well at least he’s not endorsing the Beast.
No. Thanks.
Could you refresh my memory as to who Jim Rogers is?
“What a silly post!”
Caring about America and its economy and its people is silly?
Please finish watching the video before lobbing reactionary comments my way.
OK got it... being involved with George Soros doesn’t count for anything because well anyone could get involved with George Soros. Guess I’ll just have to not vote for Ron Paul because I just don’t think he’s up to the job but thanks for warning me about Soros. ;-)
Ok, I'll bite...
Because I am sane enough not to support the left's favorite Republican surrender monkey?
Because I am sane enough to not support anyone with ties to Moveon, KOS or the Dems?
Because I am actually a Conservative Republican?
Just a wild guess, but seeing most of the post about RP, I'd say I am closer to being correct than you are...
A former partner of George Soros.
(But we're forbidden to mention that, so this is just between you and me.)
If I don’t want someone to comment on my posts, I generally don’t post them.
Personally, I am waiting for Paul to tell me if this is constitutional or not.
I couldn’t care less about his connection with George Soros.
His endorsement of Ron Paul is enough reason, by itself, to refrain from listening to him.
H
Hush, you’ll disturb the mental patients....
Ha.
You claim certain comments related to this post are “reactionary.” Go read your own post and realize how ridiculous it is. I’ll paraphrase:
“If you don’t agree with this ONE GUY who says we should vote for Ron Paul, then your opinion is irrelevant and I don’t want to hear it.”
Nice.
Are you saying that his 37 year long association with one of the world's leading anti-Americans is irrelevant?
Are you saying that his status as the bagman for MoveOn.org's number one benefactor is immaterial?
Jim Rogers would be nobody if it weren't for George Soros.
He was a mid-level employee at a third-tier broker until Soros selected him as a protege.
Since he left Soros' employ he has worked solely as a pundit and a guest lecturer, he is the only high-profile Soros associate to never set up his own fund or make a name for himself independently in the financial markets.
He isn't a market participant - he sits on the sidelines living off the capital Soros gave him.
It makes me wonder what he did for the convicted insider trader Soros that made Soros want to pay him so much.
Damn, good point and I missed it...
Ditto.
I don’t care if he’s endorsed by Mr. Rogers. I’m not voting for the nutty ol’ troofer.
Oh, wait, I got it. I wondered who he was supporting.
Rogers is a Libertarian.
Nuff said................
‘Watch the full video and listen to a man that did not get rich by being stupid.
I have no doubt that some will want to bring up his previous partnership with George Soros.’
Ironic. After reading the first sentence, my thought was ‘Riiight, using that logic, I should listen to George Soro’s...’
Then I read your second line, about Rogers and Soro’s doing business in the past.
(chuckle)
Having brains in business has nothing what so ever to do with political ‘insight’.
In fact, its been my experience its the exact opposite.
Shut-up punk.
He got rich by being lucky. I've been saying for a long time that he's a nutter who likes the sound of his own voice. I'm not surprised he's supporting a crackpot.
Add it to your tag, it’s richly deserved...
There is simply no endorsement, outside God Himself, that could get me to cast a vote for Ron Paul.
And, if God did, in fact, endorse Paul ... I believe I’d start building an Ark just in case.

I would at least be on the lookout for 4 scary guys on big ponies...
Maybe a few too many locust as well...
To whoever edited the original title. I am speechless and disappointed. That is all.
Ron Paul supporters remind me of the loud mouth ignoramus we all knew in school growing up.
He was too stupid and self absorbed to realize how foolish he really looked.
Nah, I doubt it. My everyday job is working with the military for Operations Iraqi Freedom.
Haven't met any anti-war, cut-and-run, clueless, cowardly, Code Pink types here.
Had to condense "Ron Paul" to "RuPaul" to get everything to fit. But I have been thinking, where have I heard this kind of logic before?
If that is the only justification anyone can provide that we should not listen to this man, then I must ask, why should anyone listen to you? What relevance would any of your opinions have? Surely many of you work with liberals in your everyday jobs too; does that make you a liberal? Does that mean that your ideas are bad for America? Use your heads here.
And then, it finally hit me:
But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!
Ha!
The only reason he wants to boost Paul is to divide the Republicans and elect Hillary. Paul was first an Independent and then a Republican. He could go back to Independent in a flash and run as one.
“Was it over when the German’s bombed Pearl Harbor!”
That is pretty much the funniest “moderation” I’ve ever seen. Kudos.

Let's also not forget Paul's Pork Projects (that he voted for before he voted against when he calls them unconstitutional but he is just playing the game when he submits them because everyone else does it.. yadda yadda yadda..)
Paul also supported the NAU superhighway by funding the TransTexas Corridor
Brilliant analogy. Keep on keepin’ on. :-)
Well said! Hic!
“Fat, drunk and liberal is no way to go through life, son...”
"Ron Paul for President? You're kidding, right?"
LOL!!!
By your standare, the richer the better, I guess Mitt is the man. On the other hand, maybe I'll just ask Soros who he supports.
It is better to remain silent and have people wonder if you are an idiot rather than to open your mouth and prove to everyone in sight that you are an idiot beyond all doubt.
Jim Rogers
I and countless other Ron Paul supporters have already made the assumption that Hillary is going to win anyway. Furthermore, even IF one of the faux Republicans managed to beat her, nothing would change. YOU KNOW THIS DEEP DOWN. We would still see more wasteful, bloated bureaucracy, more entitlement programs, and more inefficient war fighting. Why should we use a whole army to get rid of a small group of thugs. We have the technology to fight this war much more efficiently. So it begs the question, “Why are we fighting an inefficient war?” As Rush Limbaugh might say, “Follow the money.”
So given the assumptions above, I decided that the only wasted vote in this election would be to vote for more of the same. I will no longer vote for the “lesser of two evils,” especially when a true conservative choice is being offered. I refuse to abandon my principles. I will vote for Ron Paul no matter what.
Impressive: combining a nasty backstabbing comment about our armed forces with lunatic conspiracy theory in one brief sentence.
You must be a hero to the other person in your Ron Paul meetup.
When the socialist Hillary wins, everything WILL change. YOU KNOW THESE DEEP DOWN. Yet you’re still willing to engage in your onanistic fantasy of electing a “true conservative” that is anything but.
And the “other Ron Paul supporters” are “countless” because (1) they’re so few in numbers that they’re not statistically meaningful, and (2) because they’re so busy taking bong hits and going on munchie runs that they’re never in one place long enough to be counted.
