Go ahead support him, that is your right, as it is mine to say he is wrong for the Nation.
Which policies have worked?

Recovery package work?
Unemployment reach 8 percent?
Troops out of Afghanistan?
How is the housing market?
Federal Reserve bailing out foreigners by spending over 15 trillion dollars work?

Speaking of lies, keep running away from the truth if it makes you feel better.
The status quo isn't working, wake up

You simply get the government you deserve and that's. Enjoy voting for 4 more years of statism, failure, and war mongering. You are so arrogant and happy that Dr. Paul is likely to lose this election and that's fine, enjoy your happiness. We're on road to hell and you're partying all the way down. It's no mystery why we're here, we're here due in large part to people like you who support the same failed policies and corrupt jackals who tout them ever election cycle. So if Obama wins again enjoy your celebration but I will mourn. I will mourn that my nation is on life support, about to cross the Rubicon and instead of listening to the one man who is offering us the way out of this mess this nation endorsed the status quo. We are poorer, less free, and less safe than we were 10 years ago, and things are only going to get worse, we are only going to continue to get less free, less prosperous, and less safe the more and more people like you vote for the status quo.

I say again, you get the government you deserve, it only sucks that I get it as well.

Don't bother with him, he's not someone who is simply mislead. He is a statist who enjoys the path we're on. He fiddles while Rome burns.

Have have done so several times, resulted in some nasty replies from his rabid supporters. I agree with cutting off the welfare tit for the world, and if he would flat out say lets go to a Flat tax I would support that, His ideas on the FED, Dept of Education, EPA, FDA, abortion and the military I am totally opposed to. His many bad ideas outnumber his few good ones in my opinion, and that means I cannot support his run.

Yes I can see how cutting off printing press to your favorite statists would trouble you.

Paul supporters are the 'bots' of the 2012 election. They and only they know the way, the truth, and the light - just like the rabid Obama supporters of 2008. Only difference is, Obama won and Paul hasn't got a chance....

Don't say that too often here, or you will find some of his supporters have a personal issue when it comes to controlling their emotions, even if what you say is the truth. Unfortunately for them and Fortunately for the Nation, the vast majority of Americans do not want what Paul is selling.

As I've already said, the majority of the population is incredibly stupid. They don't know any of their problems, and will vote for someone that will make their problems worse ie Obama.

Your posts still fail to show an exact reason you have a clear disdain for Ron Paul. Ending five departments will significantly decrease spending. He wants to take troops home so we can stop spending money where it is not needed, and instead use that money here in the United States. Abortion? He is pro-life, but thinks the federal government should have no say in the matter.

Wouldn't see a reason to dislike him as a person either. He has been completely truthful and stuck to his beliefs and opinions throughout his time in politics. He doesn't change what he says to fit the agenda of others or who he is speaking in front of. But, hey, if you like lying politicians, that's great. But when this country does go to hell, I'll be placing the blame on people like you who weren't thinking when they voted.

The fact that you plutarchical warmongering imperialist globalists and the corporate special interest media groups that only serve the agenda of the status quo so vehemently reject him, only makes him all the more legitimate a candidate.

How does it feel to be a supporter of policies, and the politicians that support them, that continue to fail the needs of the American people time and time again? Must be hard on your self esteem - that is if you actually really even care ...

I understand why so many people choose to simply pretend that everything is okay and ignore the data, but that doesn't change the facts. Everything Paul predicted to happen in this country in the past 12 yeas has happened, and everything he predicts will happen if he is not elected and/or if things do not seriously change will also come true, and you guys will be left pointing fingers at one another trying to shirk the responsibility again, saying ... "how could we have known?" ...

The truth is, i think you guys know exactly what you are doing, and it is in no way concerned with the interest of protecting the rights and lives of the American people or in preserving the constitution and defending Americas sovereignty.

We will not stop struggling against the corruption in the system ... Mr. Chaplin said it well ...

So what you are saying is: anyone who doesn't think the way you do is incredable stupid but you are not? It must be nice to think so much of yourself.
