I believe in all faith that Paul isn’t anti-semitic, however, I have never seen the radicals come out behind someone so strongly. I believe it is because Paul is so anti-war and he discusses the neocon (sic) control, to the radicals this equals to the zionist conspiracy.

This goes back to something I’ve said several times, if it wasn’t for Paul’s followers, I would never have looked so closely at his record- a record I believe is not what people make him out to be. I seen an opportunist who has been in congress so long, he is just enjoying the camera time and attention. He is willing to sell a piece of his campaign’s soul for the attention.

Unfortunately the disaffected Deaniacs have gravitated to Paul and have effectively steered his campaign to total illegitimacy .
I do respect their the enthusiasim though .
I hope that the Republican nominee’s campaign has the same energy and enthusiasim as the Paul campaign ,we are going to need it .

Agreed, except perhaps to describe him as anti-war. I think he supported the use of force in Afghanistan and was trying to get a formal declaration of war for Iraq. As far as to whether a formal declaration or just a authorization for a use of force was proper, seems to be largely a matter of differing opinions.

Personally, I would have preferred (as if my opinion mattered) a formal declaration for Iraq, since it had a functioning government against which to wage a war. This wasn't the case in Afghanistan.

Yep, Dr. Paul really does have radical kooks supporting his campaign, no doubt about it:

Jews for Ron Paul was formed in the Summer of 2007 to support the Presidential candidacy of Congressman Ron Paul of Texas. Dr. Paul is a respected fiscal and foreign policy expert and ten-term member of Congress who recently addressed the Johns Hopkins University School of International Affairs on the topic of "A Traditional Non-Interventionist Foreign Policy."

The Jews for Ron Paul Advisory Board members include: Steven R. Berger (Hingham, MA) of Adamas Partners; Dr. Walter E. Block (New Orleans, LA) of Loyola University; Jennifer R. Coffey (Andover, NH) of the Second Amendment Sisters; Rich Goldman (Baltimore, MD) of the Free State Project; Aaron Zelman (Hartford, WI) of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership; and member emeritas, Aaron Russo (1943-2007), the late prominent Hollywood film producer.
