Barry Goldwater, Jr. Endorses Ron Paul
USA Daily ^ | November 16, 2007 | USA Daily Staff

Posted on 11/16/2007 8:41:02 AM PST by Sue Bob

Barry M. Goldwater, Jr. endorsed Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul for president.

“America is at a crossroads,” said Mr. Goldwater. “We have begun to stray from our traditions and must get back to what has made us the greatest nation on earth or we will lose much of the freedom we hold dear. Ron Paul stands above all of the other candidates in his commitment to liberty and to America.”

“Leading America is difficult, and I know Ron Paul is the man for the job,” he added.

"The Government that is big enough to give you everything you need, is also big enough to take away everything you have." -- Barry Goldwater

And if you support Ron Paul, you're even more of a traitor than Goldwater was. ---wideawake

Note to self.

Ron Paul gets Goldwater Jr. endorsement, ensuring that either Paul or Hillary/Bill Clinton will be our next president.

Thing to do by 2009: Move to out-of-the-way very small town, buy more ammo, non-perishable food, and build bomb shelter with large underground water tank.

What do you mean he [Goldwater] “came out against gun owners?” In what way? Can you document?

Barry Goldwater, like Ron Paul, was all talk and zero action.

You can keep your orators.

Don’t we check sources on FR anymore? I’ve never heard of “USA Daily” and it is the ONLY source on this “story.”

If Giuliani wins the nomination, will you vote for him

I like the way this fellah answered that exact same question, actually: "Sorry, I will not be supporting a constitution trampling, gun grabbing, pro-abortion, pro-planned parenthood, pro-gay agenda, pro-thought crimes, pro sanctuary city liberal candidate for president. Best double and redouble your efforts to nominate a conservative instead of whining about Hillary." Like it a whole hell of a lot, actually. ... and, of course: there's that eensy, barely perceptible difference between the respective theoreticals of Prawn Paul and myself, in that one of us is actively campaigning for nomination to the Republican Party ticket as a national candidate, whereas the other one... ummmmmm... ahhhhhhh... not so much, actually. Had the straw men in Oz all been even remotely as slipshod and slapdash as that last effort of yours, right there: poor Dorothy never would have made it back home to Kansas.

Ummm, is that a no?

Ron Paul is not going to be on the Republican Presidential ticket in 2008 or ever.

Agreed. I just can't figure out why his FR threads are more active than those of candidates with a chance.

>My argument is that we need a united Republican Party to prevail in 2008 against Bill-ze-Bubba’s wife, and we should do what it takes to build a winning coalition, including avoiding harsh rhetoric against our fellow Republicans.<

You mean the RINO Party, do you. They haven’t had a Republican since Reagan.

And if you support Ron Paul, you're even more of a traitor than Goldwater was.

Do you feel that Paul supporters should be executed? If not, drop the "traitor" hyperbole.

The sons of the prime Republican conservative heroes seem to go deep end. Just look at Reagans son.

The list does not stop there.

Okay, I admit, George H.W. Bush was not a "prime Republican conservative."

ROTFLMAO!!!!! Your own work, or someone else’s...? ;)

It's from Registered, the Giuliani supporter who self-zotted himself with some nasty remarks about JimRob.

A poorly-informed individual, reading your post, would think that mandatory prosecution of and execution of traitors is required by federal statute.

In point of fact it is not.

Giuliani is a liberal. As are alot of the posters here at FR. It is sad that some issues polarize Republicans to the point where they no longer understand what a Republican is. There is no one more conservative than Ron Paul on the Republican/Democratic tickets.

During a time of war, treason is punishable by death. Ron Paul ain't the Rosenbergs, pal.
