GOP Debates 2011 Vol. Who knew these dudes would be good at stand up comedy.

Ron Paul brings something else to the table compared to all the other GOP politicians. Whether it's Bachmann, Perry, Romney, Gingrich, Cain...I don't see ANY difference between them and they're not going to do anything different that will really change the government, compared to what Obama's done. Only Ron Paul brings something to the table that makes some sense, even if I don't agree with all his ideas.

That reaction really explains all you have to explain about a good majority of voters in this country.

It wouldn't matter if I was right wing, these guys are a bunch of idiots. 

"0 corporate tax"
"Let the church take care of him if he goes into a coma"
"No nation building in other countries because our infrastructure is failing"  but will oppose any infrastructure spending the first chance they get
"The way to grow the middle class is through cutting capital gains and dividends to 0" 

Romney is the only one with some common sense.

Thats the Republican party for ya. Like I said earlier, if it isn't the candidates making me laugh its the audience.

It really depends on how Obama does for the next year or so, and also what I think of them after learning about where they stand on different issues. But at this point, no. And it's not because I only vote liberal; it's that I don't see how they would really initiate any changes in America that would be beneficial. That's why Ron Paul, while a little unrealistic to the general public (given their reactions today
laugh.gif
), is very intriguing if he actually found a way to get the nomination (which he won't).

I guess the best news for this country is when he loses the primary next year.. We no longer have to deal with his nonsense sheep because he said he probably won't run Independent and is Retiring from Congress Jan. 2013

Reading reviews of quotes from Ron Paul's books off of blogs books is not reading a his book.



Essential is going to post a laundry list of Nanny State policies that Ron Paul is against, that Socialists like Essential would be for. Never mind the fact that he predicted the financial crisis over a decade ago and the inflation that we are experiencing almost 30 years ago, never mind that he predicted that we would be attacked because of our foreign policy when Clinton was in office. All of which is on YouTube.

Ron Paul voted against No Child Left Behind oh knooozzzzz! He wants to abolish the DOE, omg leaving it to the responsibility of the parents! The balls of Ron Paul, how dare he want to give that responsibility to the parents. What is this? He wants to repeal the Federal Income Tax! Jesus H. Christ. Heaven forbid people get to keep their own money. Wait a minute, he doesn't believe in Global Warming, or are they calling Climate Change now? Ron Paul believes in the end of the "War on Drugs".That's it, Ron Paul is not credible. What kind of nut job believes in this type of stuff?


OMGz Ron Paul has a difference of opinion than Essential, that's why Ron Paul is a fraud.

See this is exactly what Ron Paul supporters love to parrot. If the uninformed read this post, they'd be foolish not to vote for him. However, informed voters no that there is much more to him than what you posted. He is fringe candidate, his policies are pretty extreme and that's why he will never be elected. If you're going to tell a story, tell the whole story.
 
Any politician who bases the majority of his economic policy on Austrian Economics will succeed in this current climate.

What are these "extreme" policies? He's anti-Union? He's anti-tax? Oh wait, it must be because he doesn't believe in Darwin's definition of Evolution. No, it must be he's against abortion. Wanting young people to be able to opt-out of Social Security? Letting localities handle health care, instead of this great centralized system we have now? What is it?


You must mean the "Ron Paul hates FEMA, therefore he would let children starve to death." (which he has never said), or "Ron Paul wants to get rid of FEDERAL (note the emphasis) welfare, therefore he wants children to walk around and have distended stomachs like the children in Africa". Get out of here.



Any politician who bases ALL majority of his economic policy on Austrian Economics will succeed in this current ANY climate.

Ron Paul isn't afraid to speak his mind, and I moreso agree with him on some of his foreign policy but not some of his domestic policies.  That's why you heard that round of boo's thrown at him when he spoke on why we were attacked on 9/11 amd the crowd didn't want to hear it.  He didn't say that he ageed with the attacks, but he was just trying to explain the reasoning behind the attacks.  However, at the end of day Ron Paul has to make it out as the Republican nominee in order to continue and I just don't see that happening.

As far as Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum goes, it's time for them to pack it up and go home.
 
I'll leave this here.

Libertarian Legacy? Ron Paul's Campaign Manager, 49, Dies Uninsured, Of Pneumonia, Leaving family $400,000 Debt

What a testament to the Libertarian creed, which abhors the idea of universal health care. This loyal, passionate man who died too young left his family a debt of $400,000 in medical bills. And who knows whether he put off getting treatment for the pneumonia that killed him because he was uninsured.

Kent Snyder did some amazing work on the Ron Paul Campaign and as remembered as a "libertarian giant"- by Lew Rockwell, on libertarian site, Lew Rockwell.com.

The Wall Street journal reports that Kent, more than anyone else, persuaded Ron Paul to run for president. And Kent, according the the WSJ said, "ultimately became a $35 million operation with 250 employees that helped deliver more than one million votes for the Texas congressman's bid in the Republican nominating contest."

Ron Paul posted this message about Snyder on his website: ""Like so many in our movement, Kent sacrificed much for the cause of liberty, Kent poured every ounce of his being into our fight for freedom. He will always hold a place in my heart and in the hearts of my family."

Sadly, the Libertarian heart apparently does not include health care. The poor guy raised tens of millions of dollars and couldn't afford the $300-$600 a month that COBRA medical insurance would have cost.

�Paul has some good ideas -- get out of Iraq, get the US out of a lot of other countries. But his opposition to government, to universal health care-- these ideas just don't work and his campaign manager's death makes a tragic example of it.A website has been created to help raise the $400,000 to pay the medical bills.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Sad is all I have to say
 
I dislike Ron Paul very strongly, and I think his policies are nonsense, but when the crowed booed him for trying to explain why we were attacked on 9/11 I just felt awful for the man. It's baffling that so many people will completely disregard facts because they've been fed a certain narrative.

The article seems to be very misleading.  For a man who is leading a national campaign that has has the largest money bombs in history, I find it hard to believe that the man was being paid like some kind of pauper. Even with the success of his previous campaign of Ron Paul with no advertising, his resume with that one campaign would have been very impressive and allowed him to command top dollar from other candidates running for public office. There had to have been another reason he couldn't have afforded the additional $300/mo. in insurance. Especially since the medicare taxes from a normal monthly paychecks are around that same amount and the medical service from social medicine is generally not near the same level.

Click on the link for the Wall Street Journal and scroll down... Read that article, gives you the same story.. Nothing misleading about it at all..

I wish someone would have asked Paul about  Snyder during that line of debate questioning..

Essential1,
you have single-handedly killed and killed again any Ron Paul support and supporters here on the boards
laugh.gif
.  Anytime somebody has something positive to try and say about Paul you soon follow-up with an article or statement that discredits Paul's claim.  More power to you champ, your bringing the laughs and good insight to this thread.
