I know most do not favor Ron Paul on here, lol, but there are a few that are open to him so I figured I'd post this anyway.

Most do not favor Wrong Paul in the country, not just on FR.

If it was September 10, 2001, I’d consider Paul.
But on the next day, he didn’t see what I saw.
Go Newt.

One can only imagine who a president RP would appoint for his cabinet, he’s already said Dennis Kuchinich is one of his favorites. His Secretary of Defense?
And Supreme Court appointee? Perish the thought.

IMHO Paul does not do ‘sound bytes’ well which leave his positions open to misrepresentation by the MSM.
However I do like “I define foreign aid as taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries. “.
When it is pointed out that Paul would end foreign aid to Israel, it is not pointed out that by ending all foreign ail Israel would be better off. Currently “We give $3 billion a year to Israel in loans; and we give $12 billion or more in assistance to Israels self-declared enemies. Some of these are countries that say they will drive Israel into the sea. “
Our nation building has resulted in Islamic republics in Afghanistan and Iraq, the installing the Moslem Brotherhood, allies of al-Quaeda, in Egypt and Libya.
In addition remember that the borrower is servant to the lender and America should never be the master of Israel and its fate.

Ron Paul is appealing because he’ll actually do something to protect the rights of Americans over the rights of lobbyists and minorities.
Say what you want about his foreign policy but I think the guy is serious when he votes no on bills to put you in jail at the President’s whim and wants to reign in the Fed who continues to feed these pigs bailouts.
I also happen to think he’s more electable than Newt (because Newt will get smoked by the liberal media over his 19 divorces, checks from Fannie Mae and that half-mil Tiffany’s account)

In addition, Paul's proposed budget would make a great starting point for dialogue, but have been ignored. Paul would not cut military pensions and benefits, nor SS for those retired and near retired, but would end freebies for illegals. all foreign aid, several entire departments.

Ron Paul is like the old Art Bell show. Just enough real guests and topics to enhance the "entertainment" stuff, and overlook the absolute crazies.
I think he would be more valuable as the new host of C2CAM, rather than someone with government executive power.
To: Gennie; All
If he can find his way onto the ticket as the Republican candidate, I’ll vote for him. If he runs as an Independent, Libertarian or whatever, I’ll not vote for him. Ross Perot’s candidacy is still fresh in my mind.
