If we keep on the path that we have been on, there will be no SS left when many of us retire. Our wonderful federal gov't keeps raiding it to pay off their spending spree. Public schools have progressively deteriorated over the last couple of decades.
I also believe in these programs, just not under the control of the criminals that have been running them lately.

True conservatives aren't praised by anti-christian pot smokers from Berkeley, California.
If the leftwing does not get angry at the mere mention of your name, than you are not a conservative.
Because it's them against us! you're either on our team or against it!
If they like him then I hate him............I don't care what he stands for
It's this type of mentality that will get Obama re-elected friend.
I can't tell you how many younger people I know that would vote republican if the party would just lighten up on the social issues and distance itself from the crazy religious right. we get that vote no matter what anyways because they're stupid. They were raised by stupid people. There friends and the people they suround themselves with are stupid. they can be easily manipulated because they're subject to tricks like nationalism. A rah rah rah pep rally, a few american flags and some country music playing will put them on the wagon but it takes more than that to convince inteligent people that think for themselves to jump on board.
I think Ron Paul is more aware and honest than any other politician!
He predicted the housing crisis in the 2008 debates. And has been saying that monitizing the debt will only hurt America, wanting to go back to the gold standard, which is controversial but sensible to me.
His views toward legalizing drugs...are toward state and not fed control of legalizing them. This gives the states and it's citicens the power not the fed gov. to make these decisions/laws if they so choose. Power to the people.
He wants the federal government to what our founding fathers wanted, protect it's citicens and keep out of running everything ie: limited government involvement in things such as the Department of Education.
I like how Ron Paul is now losing his shorts after sticking his foot into his mouth once again with another racist statement, so people try and re-brand him as a liberal. Even though he's heavily conservative Christian (anti-abortion, gay marriage), and has been happily championed by the GOP for nearly 20 years.
This is just a pathetic sign of trying of conservatives trying to cut their losses in support, I love the irony.
Ron Paul's political ideology is more popular in San Francisco than it is in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Yes, I agree with the entire statement. With him as president the government would not be involved regulating abortion, same sex marriage or drugs. However that does make him the Conservative and the others something else

It will...and it's evidently never occurred to the OP that possibly the people named aren't as "left-wing" as they appear, if they like Ron Paul. Yet that's as logical an interpretation as what she said.

Honesty in a politician is RARE
