Given John McCain’s actions against the first and second amendments, and his attempt to grant amnesty to 20-30 million illegal aliens, couldn’t his supporters also be branded as traitors?
I think you are way out of line calling people traitors for supporting a particular candidate.
This kind of rhetoric is part of what has gotten us into the political situation in which we find ourselves. It was started by the Democrats in the 1980s, when they pulled out all the stops to prevent Robert Bork from getting on the Supreme Court.

Paul has never blamed America for 9/11.
He sure has, he said it was OUR policies that forced the terrorists to attack us. Was it our fault the Japanese attacked us? It was our foreign policy that stopped trade with them.
You have a fringe minority who are exploiting Paul's campaign and giving the impression that Paul is an anti-war moonbat.
It is not a fringe minority, it is his almost his entire following. I do not mind so much his anti-war message as I do his blame America first message.

started by the Democrats in the 1980syou must not have been there in the 70's when thy went after Nixon, or the 60's when they went after Goldwater.

Correct on Goldwater, but Nixon created his own problems through paranoia. A trait that is unfortunately shared by too many today.

He blames America for anything that goes wrong in the world.Ron Paul refers to 60-70 years worth of foreign policy, not say, just the last decade or two. How would you argue differently?
Would you say that current US foreign policy (nation building and bases/troops in dozens of foreign countries, CIA involvement since the 1950s in dozens of foreign nations) is in line with the US Constitution or out of line with the US Constitution?

some of his own problems, yes, but persecuted nonetheless for having been an anti-communist for decades.
To: rideharddiefast
He sure has, he said it was OUR policies that forced the terrorists to attack us. That's not the same as blaming America. In a nutshell, he's saying actions have consequences. That's basically it.
Was it our fault the Japanese attacked us? It was our foreign policy that stopped trade with them.
What does that have to do with the Middle East? That's a specious comparison and besides Paul told Russert we were right to declare war and fight Japan.
It is not a fringe minority, it is his almost his entire following.
A 130,000 people who donated to Paul in 4Q - All of them aren't white supremacists, truthers, and anti-war leftists there bub.

Where does our foreign policy defy our constitution?

you’ll need to go back further, to Spanish-American War, Phillipine War, Little Big Horn, Falling Timbers—

Time for Repubs to get with a program; one that does not include Party-fracturing candidates like Ron Paul. . .and get smart as well; by dumping Huckabee.
We are well on our way to looking as dumb as Demrats here.

Because Pakistan never been a really stable country since they broke away from India. All the more reason why we shouldn't have stuck our noses in there to begin with. We didn't need to beg for Musharraf's permission or give him $10 billion to hunt down AQ near his border...we should have just fricking went in there.

one that does not include Party-fracturing candidates like Ron Paul. Ron Paul is actually SAVING the Republican Party...
Do you want the libertarians and independents to go 3rd party or vote Republican?

he finds the Republican party so reprehensible, I don’t know why he wants to call himself a Republican. On the other hand, without the wide-open Republican primary process, who would have heard of him?
To: SJackson; All
In fact they said no thank you... Which is not hard to say..

He is saying our actions forced his terrorist allies to attack us. What did we do that forced the terrorists to attack us?
What does that have to do with the Middle East? That's a specious comparison and besides Paul told Russert we were right to declare war and fight Japan.
Where is there any difference. We refused to continue trade with the Japanese. They felt that was a threat so they attacked us. It was our foreign policy that caused the attack. Why does cut and run feel it was ok for the Islamic terrorists to attack us but not the Japanese?
A 130,000 people who donated to Paul in 4Q - All of them aren't white supremacists, truthers, and anti-war leftists there bub.
Who else but them and George Soros and the moveon.org would? Why would anybody who loves America donate to a blame America first anti-American?
To: End Times Crusader
It was worth it to end slavery.Yet every other Westernized country that has ended slavery did it without a civil war (more accurately, War of Northern Aggression or War Between the States).
Lincoln himself said if he could save the Union without freeing the slaves, he would.
Hmmmm...
