(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I just had a little bit of logic I wanted to run past you guys. First of all, most of us here, (myself included) are too you to vote, so anything said here doesn't really matter. That said, I believe Ron Paul is the most beneficial candidate for the Republican Party and here's why...

He is a Republican. Seems simple, but if he got the nomination, he would get the exact same support from Republicans Romney has now, due to the majority of people voting along party lines.

He's NOT Romney There are many people who would support anyone but Romney. (Rick Santorum supporters?) And honestly, Romney has had too many slip ups regarding the Minority Voters to win at this point.

Appeal to Independents This is very important. Paul has a HUGE Independent appeal. He stands for a lot of things many independents do. He also comes across as not being a Washington Insider.

He's not Obama Many Democrats are anti Obama and Anti Romney. He appeals to those people.

He's NOT for Obamacare Romney once was a supporter of something like Obamacare, and Obama is a supporter of this as well. Paul would pick up all of these people who are not so fond if Obamacare.

If he isn't the Nominee, he could RUIN the Republican Party this year, and for years to come Ron Paul has a huge fan base of 15-30 year olds. If they are alienated, they could switch to Democrats, and ruin the Grand Old Party for the next 4 elections to come. Also, if Paul ran as Independent after losing the nominations, he would gain a large bit of support from Republicans, being as he was one. Although it might only be 10%, 10% added to a candidates total is huge.

Anyways, thats my opinion, and the logic behind it. Leave your opinions below!

the tax system should be abolished anyways "herp derp lets leave the brits cause they are taxing us... 100 years later lets tax the people!" hypocrites



first you say we shouldn't repeal the civil rights act because it aids in everyone being treated equally and being given the same opportunities, now you say no one needs to be treated equally, but still be given the same chance, i believe that would mean "being treated equally", very hypocritical man.

paying for YOUR schooling, isn't anyones problem but your own, now you just sound like you want some free shit, did anyone ever tell you "there's no such thing as a free meal".

If what we had worked and this perfect little government that your talking about actually cared about the people and not the businesses, why are there so many homeless people sleeping in tents because they bought homes from and had jobs with the banks that defaulted and the government bailed the banks out, instead of letting them burn like they should in a democracy? or what about all the vehicle manufacturers that needed a bail out too? they should have been burned too. no there needs to be change, trying to keep things the way they were ten-twenty years ago isn't cutting it now for us. and these new world order fuks need to get out before the shit gets really rough.

I don't want to live in a socialist country and at the moment that's what this country is turning into with the president ignoring congress. The government is currently a business that works for the benefit of wall street. and maybe one day it'll be the right time to go back to being the gun slinging yokels, that took care of shit. not the pussies that the country has currently been over ridden by.

by the way this isn't a democracy because if it were the peoples vote for president would matter, and in fact if it were a democracy the people should have a vote on every matter that would ever be discussed. in the end this isn't a democracy because its a group of people that are making your decisions for you and believing it to be "whats best for you" like they are your fuking parents.

"Herp derp let's not have any money". America seceded from Britain for unfair taxation because America was not represented in Parliament. If Georgie had his way, America would have never revolutionized and would have continued under British rule. If it weren't for Parliament telling him to virtually kiss their ass and go about peace negotiations, history wouldn't be the same.


Most of this was just uneducated slander.

For one, equal opportunity is not the same as equal treatment. Basically equal opportunity is just saying that I deserve as much of a chance as you to go to school and maybe get a bit of a head-start into college and life despite that I never had parents to pay for anything.

Homeless people generally are homeless because they don't have the means available to live a better life. It's not bank bailouts or foreclosure, those are an entirely different issue in the real estate market and the issue is not from the humanitarian perspective at all, but the fact that real estate banks (like Wells Fargo) like to dump money in foreign investments and when they bankrupt on a home they can't pay off the investment and in order to keep international relations alive Congress decides to bail them out.

On a corporate level bailouts usually happen because nobody wants to lose 130,000+ jobs. There are some bailouts that just seem unrealistic and you question the legitimacy and the reasons behind it but from that perspective there is a questionable amount of intent for anything done. That doesn't mean turn a blind eye, but you keep that in mind - I guarantee Congress will never give Obama the okay to pass another bailout if he gets another four years in office. They'll remember the General Electric disaster of 2010 and they will tell him to go cry in the corner.

We vote for the people who we want to represent us, I suppose if you don't go to the polls to vote for your senators and representatives and you don't take the time to learn their platform then the only person you can blame for the shortcomings is you.

As for schooling...I'd love to hear your ideas on how a thirteen year old orphan could possibly pay for their own schooling. I'm not saying everyone's that way, I fully believe that graduating from the junior high level should be just as respected as a diploma or a degree. However some people want to pursue their dreams in life and not work in a factory until the day they die. I'm becoming a musician and I couldn't have done it without going to school, I needed classes on marketing, finances, English (creative writing, linguistics, grammar, spelling, you name it) and taxes so I didn't jump into the music biz and basically lose every dime I had to my name.

Secondary education is a bit of a go-on-your-own plan, and there needs to be reforms to grants especially, however some people really deserve what they get. It's easy to say 'well just do it on your own' because a lot of people had the benefits of parents to watch out for them. Not everyone was quite given the same opportunity. It's terribly easy to abuse the system, which is the flaw with the system; but why condemn the people who grew up with terrible parents who spent their paychecks on booze and drugs or the people like me who lost their parents at an early age? $15,000 was a nice start but that's all the money I'm ever going to get out of them because the trust fund is cleaned and their life insurance is paid off.

In short, I fully acknowledge that people abuse the system and those people are terrible people. HOWEVER, I just wish others wouldn't condemn those of us that needed the system for the faults of a few.

This is basically how I feel as well.



I don't even think you bothered to watch that video. He never uttered the words "It's alright to discriminate against someone because of a disability". He said that he doesn't want the federal government in the noses of businesses regulating this issue, he wants the companies themselves to take care of it. He feels that every company should make a disabled person feel well, and if they do not, then the disabled have every right to boycott them.






I feel that this is somewhat a good thing. However don't think of it in the way that you are most likely thinking about it right now. They need regulation. They need many different aspects to be regulated to make sure that what is going on in the private healthcare system is ethical and normal. But I think there needs to be a mix of the two. Trust me, public healthcare isn't all that great. I'm Canadian and the public healthcare sector here is a pain in the ass, especially considering that there are 10 hour lineups at the EMERGENCY ROOM.


Now....

I will let the rant side of me take over.


Americans are scared of change. Ron Paul is someone who is radical, and that's what America needs. They need an old timer to march up in there, and bitch slap every spoiled American right in the face. People don't want to change, but people WILL have to. It's a communist approach, but it is how America got to where it was, and how everyone loved America, and had so much respect for it.

People worked hard, didn't complain and did what they were told and things got done. If you ask me, most presidents from the 40's to the 70's were radical in their own ways. They pushed things and laws on people that people would never expect, and they would accomplish so much in such a small time frame.

America NEEDS an extreme president. Ready to do extraordinary things. Ready to push Americans to the brink. Granted, I may not agree with everything this man has to say, but for 95% of the time, whenever this man utters words, I know that this man could lead America to great lengths. I urge you to look at what he wants to do with a positive eye, and quit being negative about every single President in the running.

It's important to look at the good and bad in a person, but at the end of the day everyone is only looking at the bad. No wonder there are so many conspiracy theorists and idiots who live under a government, live in it, use it, gain money from it, and insult it 24/7. People are stuck in "bad" mode. People only point out the bad's now.

I would love to see this man lead America, although I am Canadian I have been following his campaign closely and think that out of the candidates he is probably one of the best.

learn how to use the quote options, don't just chop what you think will make someone look stupid. i may seem uneducated but you sir have been brainwashed by the current united states educated system, read "the deliberate dumbing down of america". then maybe you'll understand where i'm coming from.

for what your calling for and what ron paul is against, is sort of sad. because ron paul is trying to stop the government from inflating our fiop dollar into the ruins worse than it has already become. i'm sorry about your sob story, but social services should have hooked you up with better foster care. There's this great thing called basic education, not the bullshit they are serving to everyone in the current school districts. maybe ron paul can save that as well. but an income tax shouldn't be there, because in the end it is technically a "re-distributing of money" you can look at it otherwise but it is that, because i may pay a income tax but i get well over what i paid back every year, would you claim that as being fair? when you being wifeless and childless has to pay into it most of the time?

let's bring up the tax that obama wants to add on to everyone to give condoms to everyone else. I don't want to pay for your condoms, shit you can pay for them yourself. its almost with the fight over abortion and everything, i believe in the constitution right of having my opinion, it doesn't make it right for the government to fight over our opinions and say they'll make it legal or illegal, thats like mommy and daddy bullshit. we should decide what's illegal and legal, likes like murder, if i feel like murder is right should that also be a presidential argument for the people? think of it that way with everything they bring up! especially america where freedom isn't free at all.

sure your allowed equality, but equality isn't what your really thinking it is, all your equality adds up to is a job and education. and on that statement it also is upon where you are from and the school district that has taught you the things that you know and your sat act scores and so on. in the end it's entirely up to you. but thats how its been for a long time and that wouldn't disappear with ron paul writing off the civil rights act. it would still be there and in tact.

everything he is trying to do, is to pull away from BIG GOVERNMENT, the current socialistic communism type of society its trying to turn it's people into, away from. the sooner you look at it from that way, maybe the sooner you'll understand. I only wrote as a child to maybe show you to read what i'm actually writing but your not, your brainwashing has worked correctly.

but seeing how right now it's only paul vs romney vs obama... who knows what could happen and the fact that the majority of the media isn't mentioning paul at all still.... thats the saddest thing about it all.

your bank bail out argument is trash, because obama works for wall street not for the people and the fact that he signed a treaty with NATO saying we will be paying them 2million dollars towards an organization that failed us and owes me, is total bullshit. windmill cocksuckers they are.

taxation without representation at it's best, it's how its been for a while. politicians lie, bottom line. they'll tell you what you want to hear and sell you down the river. its the entire lies of the blacks being slaves, a small majority of blacks were slaves, also the lie of the civil war, read some journals. small percentages and bullshit history is written by the victor, especially when you want to control the people.

Believe half of what your read, see, hear. because most of it is total bullshit, propaganda made for the sheep of the nation, totally bought into by the majority, the few that don't buy in, have been made to be seen as crazy conspiracy theorists... but conspiracy theorists can't be just that if to much has come true..


as for graduating at a junior highschool education being accepted, no way should it ever be accepted that's stupid, is this apart of the NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND act, total socialistic bullshit? "depending on education a child can graduate at the age of 15 or 21" thats fucking stupid. down right retarded. most children aren't educated enough and if that were they way of things something like what obama just tried to run through that "children can't do chores" bill, would have probably gone through because children that still lived at home and had to do chores would have had a say in things, but still not have the right to consent to sexual activities.

pure stupidity. you can go ahead and say what ever i say is childish, but in the end re-read what i write and watch more than just a hand full of ron paul hate videos, and actually listen to what he has to say. don't go in hating, listen. actually listen to every word, because in the end he owns everyone with every thing they ever say. watch his last interview featured on his website. look how dumbfounded the other guy is. he makes every one dumbfounded because what he says is the fucking truth.

stop being biased and listening to the media. check it out your boy gingrich dropped outta the race and ron paul is still going strong.

This is completely untrue, he only got about 1.5 million (out of 300 million) of the popular vote of the primaries.

The Iowan caucus did better for him, but he only focused on the caucuses, didn't do much for his campaign other than some newsletters. He doesn't appeal to most of the American people due to his inherent lack of interest in talking to us.


I don't think you understand what a bailout is. Bailout is when the government gives a loan to a failing company to prevent job loss. I have never heard of any such Obama-NATO story, so if you'd like to find a link I'd be glad to point out economical and political repercussion. If you want to look at a real problem you can talk about his You must login or register to view this content. I believe that every bailout should be a direct democratic vote, where you go to your local polls and decide if you want the federal government to give upwards millions of dollars to a company. I also believe propaganda should also tell you why it needs a bailout (however, since that won't happen you can just go look it up yourself) and ask yourself if it's fair for the workers. If you find that the CEO was embezzling and committing money fraud on a huge scale with a French getaway plan, why not okay the bailout with a new appointed CEO?


This statement is actually entirely true and this is why we want government reform.


Yeah, the ones living in America and England. They were the slaves, the truth of it was that after the Civil War they were actually given worse treatment under "equality" (which wasn't equality because nobody in the north liked them, the real reason behind the Civil War was due to representation issues because the southern states' landowners believed that their slaves should count as a whole in their ballot and for that to happen they had to be considered whole "people"). I don't know what's worse, telling me to "understand" or not knowing the facts you're trying to retort.



I've known some people who shouldn't have bothered going to high school, people who just could have upped and left after junior high (or whenever they learned Algebra, generally 8th or 9th grade) to go become mechanics (which is a large part of my industrial area). The education system is solely based around "primary" education which isn't going to help everyone with their positions in life. As for the standards of education, refer to my NCLB argument because it is the states' fault, not the federal government's, if your standards suck.

Just from reading through. People who say the following would be good O_O:
1. Eliminating taxes. Name me one other country that's following this plan
2. Killing education. Once again, no other country.
3. Calling the US socialist :ha!:
4. National HealthCare is bad, yes that's why most EU countries have it
5. Isolationism is good. The US, a main member of the UN, can't simply pull out.
6. Getting rid of the 16 amendment is good. You do know our main method of income prior were tariffs, which we can hardly use nowadays thanks to new laws and acts

I agree agree 50% with what he and rommney say. If they were to combine what I like and become Paomney I would vote for it.

I get to vote this upcoming presidential election because I will be 18 by the cut off date.

Honestly, you look at both sides and you will find both good and bad things, it's now about what benefits you rather than everyone as a whole.
