He's lucky he even got in-- he's the farthest thing from a Republican I can imagine.

It's a shame they wasted 89 seconds of the debate.

Progressives hate when someone points out the Constitutional requirements for going to war.

Ron Paul wants to destroy social security, remove it, repeal it, end it, whatever you want to say. Same thing with medicare.

More then 70% of the country disagree with him on that, and as such, he will never be President.

Thats why he doesn't get "air time" during debates, he is a fringe candidate. I like a lot of what he has to say, but the only reason Ron Paul runs for President every year isn't to win, its to try and draw attention to his fringe issues. He knows he could never win the white house.

Your misinformation of that is astounding.




It was ridiculous. Especially considering when he was asked a question, he answered it in the first sentence of his response, and then elaborated. Unlike the majority who babbled on and on avoiding answering. He also gave intelligent answers. But hey, who wants to hear from a wise vet about these things?

That's 89 seconds of waste savings. I'm tired of his impractical babbling.
