Ron Paul is simply a disaster waiting to happen if he gets the Republican nomination or runs as a third party candidate.

If by some fluke he actually won the white house, congress would find their mojo in a hurry and render him pretty much powerless.

Ron Paul is batsh*t crazy and is not even a Republican nor a conservative. When you endorse Sheila Jackson Lee for re-election, you pretty much know you are NOT a conservative.

So your claim is that the only thing as bad as Ron Paul getting the Republican nomination is him running as an independent. Then you use such inflammatory rhetoric in your essay that you basically dare him to run as an independent.

That's not a particularly good strategy.

Those lights are revealing a man whose ideas and actions make him not just eccentric, they make unqualified to lead and a danger to our national security.

Hmmm...National security?

Chertoff, Bush's Homeland Security Chief was found to have people who entered this country illegally, wandering around the inside of his private residence...During war time no less.

Not scary enough?

More Muslims entered the U.S. legally during Bush's term, than in the decade before.

During Bush's term, upwards of 10 million people entered our homeland illegally...During wartime no less.

National security?

So...having principles and sticking to them makes Paul a loser and “un-electable”...?

Seriously, the saddest thing is that the Republican Party has been unable to come up with anyone who can even compare with Ron Paul. Obama is unpopular and vulnerable, and Paul is our best hope of defeating him, but then there’s all the Bill Russells out there squashing that thought...

That depends on which hemisphere you're in.

I agree.

I get Judge Napolitano’s updates on facebook and the question he asked yesterday was valid.

Is the Republican Party now split three ways? Establishment Conservatives, Social Conservatives and Fiscal Conservatives. Doesn’t seem like anyone of these guys can unite the others including Dr. Paul whom I’ll vote for in Fla. Be interesting to see if that changes this summer.

American military intervention in the oil producing nations of the world has not been particularly helpful in producing energy security. When the US military intervened in Iraq, Iraqi oil production went down. When the US military intervened in Libya, Libyan oil production went down. The US military has pretty much stayed out of Russia and today Russia is the world’s largest oil producer.

Oil producers of the world don’t really look forward to those who say, “I’m from the US government and I’m here to help you.”
