There is no better alternative.

This is a silly video. For those really wanting to know about Ron Paul, do a search for Ron Paul on youtube or google Ron Paul. Then, listen and read ....

Don’t just ridicule what you don’t know about. Make a sincere effort to learn and understand why many think that he is clearly the best choice for President.

Exactly!

Moreover, be they Democrat, Dixiecrat, or Republican, (DDR) we have had southern-based Presidents for the last 19 years. Doesn’t this seem a bit strange? Furthermore, most folks would think Reagan was an excellent President but he was a non-southerner. So after 23 years of mediocrity, let’s give another DDR southerner a chance? Therefore, I think Romney or Paul would be a fresh start!

You should send them all the Lew Rockwell and other libertarian links - I know this much, his supporters aren’t Republicans.

No, there’s a difference between a RINO and a libertarian. I am old GOP, the country club Republicans are only going to be tolerated in certain parts of the country - why Rudy is doomed.

Paul is because he will never resonate with the base. Isolationism, or what he calls “non-interventionism” is just isolationist-lite. He is a libertarian, and that’s a completely different philosophy.

Huckabee is who I’m really watching - I don’t thin the “compassionate conservative” is salable right now, but we’ll see.

No, it is the principles advocated by the Founding Fathers, mind our own business and defend our own interests.

Practically any of the Republicans are better since they, in polar opposite to Ron Paul, think Osama Bin Laden is a bigger threat than some GS-4 sitting in a federal office building.

Its not spreading a word. Its spreading a disease.

What kind of a Doctor prescribes dysfunctionalism by irresponsibly advocating for the legalization of street drugs?

What kind of a man serves in the U.S. military and cant even support our troops mission when we are wiping out Al Qaeda in Iraq?

Thanks for the link!! Always miss some of DiLorenzo's best articles for some reason. And the quotes from Judge Napalitano are spot on.

I wanted to show why the Ron Paul cult values don’t quite add up here at Free Republic.

He is a hero when he goes on left-wing TV with Steve Colbert, Bill Maher, John Stewart and The View.

He is for the legalization of street drugs with no consequences because he has yet to state any plan to educate the public on the dangers of its use while using the theme as a political agenda.

His supporters rub elbows with Cindy Sheehans ilk and other antiwar freaks that are apathetic to terrorist danger.

I could of ran more photos of Ron Paul being an isolationist but I might have to save that for part 2.

Here is Ron Paul on Drugs, prostitution, etc.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7ea_1197245761

He is for state regulation, not federal. Big difference.

I totally agree with Ron Paul on this as did Milton Friedman and others. The War on Drugs does more harm than good.

Let the states decide. Whatever the feds do gets screwed up. Guaranteed.

Ron Paul—a deeply disturbed man.

He reminds me of Ross Perot back when his ego driven candidacy gave us 8 long sordid years of the clintons.

DiLorenzo nails it. I didn’t realize he was a Paul supporter. Makes sense, though. I have a couple of his books that reveal the truth about Lincoln, may he rot in Hell, and his civil war. It is also interesting to learn that Napolitano supports Paul. It must make for lively debate on Brian and the Judge.

Thank you for your response.
Yes there are numerous people out there bright enough to know what’s going on. First, though, we have to know ourselves what is right and wrong. Then we can recognize it in others like Dr Paul, Napolitano, DiLorenzo, etc., and a few others in the public eye.

Posting on this topic on the interent is all but fruitless, except for those of the so-called silent majority who will not speak out in public knowing what will come at them from the herd. But for them the message goes out.

Under Paul, states would have the power to legalize drugs. With the borders sealed, there wouldn't that much drugs pouring in.

What kind of a man serves in the U.S. military and cant even support our troops mission when we are wiping out Al Qaeda in Iraq?

They're pretty much wiped out, don't you agree? Or do you want to perpetually remain there and having our military basically being a can of bug spray.

He is a hero when he goes on left-wing TV with Steve Colbert, Bill Maher, John Stewart and The View.

He was invited to those shows, going on their shows doesn't make Paul a leftist anymore than Hillary becoming conservative talking to Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday.

He is for the legalization of street drugs with no consequences because he has yet to state any plan to educate the public on the dangers of its use while using the theme as a political agenda.

He is for the legalization of marijuana and industrial hemp which I'm for 100% as well. Anyway, states would still have the power to make laws, so he wouldn't legalize them carte blanche. With the borders sealed and our money and police personnel going to Mexico and Colombia trying to stop their drugs, there wouldn't be hard drugs pouring into the country & the demand would decrease.

His supporters rub elbows with Cindy Sheehans ilk and other antiwar freaks that are apathetic to terrorist danger

His supporters are decent people who are sick and tired of the status-quo and probably never heard of Sheehan. The handful of nutballs who are leftists don't speak for the majority of Paul supporters. Dude, you have issues. Seriously. Go get some help.

I could of ran more photos of Ron Paul being an isolationist but I might have to save that for part 2.

Go ahead and waste your time. Like I said, all your doing is preaching to the choir. PAUL'S SUPPORTERS DON'T CARE, you ever think of that?

If you were to talk with a supporter or just go to one of his rallies (if you can find one), you’ll find all sorts of wacked moonbats there, chanting his name. These people are hard to differentiate from the left-wing, birkenstock wearing, tie-dyed hippie-moonbats that get FReeped on a regular basis. That should be enough raise some big ol’ red flags (pun intended).

BTW, he’s a MIHOP.

I can go to any other candidate's rallies and cherry-pick a few attendees too. If you think the vast majority of Paul's supporters are anti-American leftists, you're just delusional.

These people are hard to differentiate from the left-wing, birkenstock wearing, tie-dyed hippie-moonbats that get FReeped on a regular basis.

Whatever, believe what you want while Dr. Paul continues to rake in the money and supporters.

OK. So you say read & learn. I’ve read and learned. I’ve come up with the position that Pablo is a moonbat. Your response? I’m “delusional”.

Look, the more I learn about him, the less I like. The more I see and hear his supporters, the less I like. Moonbat is the best label for him. I’m sorry that your guy doesn’t do it for me like he does it for you, but them’s the breaks.

I did in fact cherry-pick some supporters. The ones I did were the normal looking, kinda square, kinda safe ones. The kind I thought could state a position coherently without rancor. I got Cindy Shehan in sheep’s clothing. Tell me if this sounds familiar...
Bombs in the Twin Towers?
We attacked them first?
Bush was getting even for the hit-job on his dad?
It’s an imperialist war?
Oil companies are in collusion with Bush?
Saudi family ties?

I take it back, I got Rosie O’Donnell.

Sorry, but those were Pablo’s supporters out doing their lord’s work. I think them traitors. I know they’re fools. Which are you?
