Wow your right! who should I vote for ?

Granted he did later take "moral responsibility" for the newsletters, but it was a case of too little to late.
If someone published something under your real name today - how would you know? What could you really do about it? Seriously, think about it. You could probably do nothing and would do nothing even if you had the amazing fortune of catching said publication. Unless you're a celebrity of some sort there's no reason why someone couldn't use your name as a pseudonym. If it's not a mainstream publication read by a significant number of people there's even less likelihood of catching the problem. It's obviously not him - ok so why is the media bringing this up - right now?

Ever hear of "Identity Theft?" If you attempt to use my real name on anything, I'll own you.

Research him, watch his interviews, learn something real about Ron Paul before you make such unwarranted claims. When you have something of value to share with us about what Ron Paul actually believes, what he actually has said, what he's actually written, then your opinion on this topic will have a lot more value.

I'm curious if he even knows where the newsletters were published.

I could publish an article using your real first and last name and even the state within which you live... "Hi I'm so and so from Texas" for example... and "I believe the following..."

Guess what? - you could have no recourse, and furthermore I doubt you'd even catch it, and lastly, unless I was a fool the publisher probably wouldn't even have my real information to follow-up with me. It's simple... and no it's not identity theft.

I have. Beyond researching him and watching him in the debates, I have seen him speak 4 times in New Hampshire. Crack. pot.

I have researched Ron Paul's voting record, and everything I posted is exactly as Ron Paul voted. Ron Paul hates the military and votes to defund them every chance he gets. Ron Paul is a total isolationist and votes against every trade agreement ever introduced. These are not "unwarranted claims" they are verifiable fact that Ron Paul can not run and hide from. As to what politicians have to say, I couldn't care less. I don't believe anything any politician says, I only believe what their voting record shows.

It is very edivent by your reckless "unwarranted claims" accusation that you have absolutely no clue about Ron Paul's voting record. I suggest you get educated. It should be a simple matter of posting just one trade agreement Ron Paul voted for, or posting just one Defense spending bill Ron Paul voted for, and you will have proven me wrong. However, since I know you can not produce anything of the sort, I will not be surprised by your lack of response.
