It would be very good for informing the general public if you or any of the many young people supporting Ron Paul would express your own experience(s) as a historical foundation for Paul’s ideas. For example years of living under the power of the Fed Reserve I believe, as I think Paul does, that it should be abolished and the USA go back to USA money instead of international bankers. However, very differently, I believe that history and my life’s experience shows that the Muslim culture has been eroding the basis of our Founder’s Constitution. Have the young lived long enough or through these changes to understand what has been the history of Muslim culture on western civilization and do these young people favor a Muslim influenced society which I believe Ron Paul does?
Just a few examples from the article...
REP. PAUL: I vote against it, so I don't endorse the system.
MR. RUSSERT: But when it passes overwhelmingly, you take the money back home.
REP. PAUL: I don't take it. That's the system.
Excellent!
As far as young people supporting him, go to your city's local crack pipe supplier and you will see Ron Paul campaign signs and propaganda all over the place. One good example is Central Texas' "Planet K", which are basically head shops and local campaign offices for Ron Paul.
Ron Paul - Islam's Useful idiot in the US House.

You know, Stalin liked dogs and chocolate, and I love dogs and chocolate too.
My point was that many Freepers agree with Ron Paul on these two issues, but if you can find me one conservative candidate who ever talks about TSA overreach, or the causes of the housing bubble and our recent economic crash, I would appreciate it. Mr. Gingrich just seems wildly tainted by the whole GSE thing, and he approves of them.
Ron Paul is a Jacksonian Democrat -- he's a man without a party, though. And Andrew Jackson's decisions led to the terrible panic of 1837, because speculation in the state banks got out of control. I don't know that Mr. Paul's Jacksonian solutions are necessarily the answer.
My homeschooling friends here in Virginia are into raw milk, unfortunately. I would never touch the stuff, but they think it will cure their tooth decay and immunize them from diseases. They are also against immunizations for the most part.
They would probably put up with legal drugs if they could get their raw milk. Homeschoolers are also into Ron Paul because he’s the only candidate who gives them a shout-out and is offering them $5,000 per child. Money talks.
The Islam issue doesn’t push voters’ buttons. Talking about it as a slam against Ron Paul won’t help. Americans *overwhelmingly* supported the Iraq withdrawal.
If you want a small-government conservative to win, he or she needs to talk small on foreign intervention. It’s not a great political issue among the general public, necessarily. The economy is more important.
