This is the part that I don't get at all! How is a guy preaching fiscal restraint, radical but the guy preaching "a chicken in every pot" isn't?
If that were his only message, it would be one thing.
What Ron Paul represents is libertarianism, which is a radical belief in itself. Such people believe in very weak governments. The problem with that is that there are no world examples of thriving nations that have weak governments.
Paul doesn't believe in any regulation and doesn't believe that the national government should aid disaster victims.
That all makes him far out of t he mainstream of most voters.
Oh please. Now booing a candidate means that his popularity goes up? Is this a linear relationship (i.e., cheering a candidate means he is less liked)?
I respect people's choice to support Ron Paul. But he cannot win a primary and won't win a nationwide election. He was incoherent at points in the last debate. And his views on complete isolationism are simply undoable in the world in which we live.
lmao where was he incoherent? You didn't watch the debate and you don't know his policies. He's never been an isolationist. That is what the uninformed and agenda driven like to repeat because the person they back is full of failed more of the same policies so they have to deflect. Please list the policies of your candidate that worked.
Non intervention - trade with all nations entangling alliances with none.
Quit listening to sound bites and talking heads. If you want to know the policies of a candidate listen to THAT candidate and look at their voting record.

Which state carries more weight vote wise, California or Florida?
Who won the Florida poll? We all know it was Cain because the media was all over it.
Who won the California poll? We know it was Ron Paul because the media ignored it.

I wish more folks understood that point. Thank you.
non-interventionism = free trade, free travel, ACTUAL diplomacy..the idea that the president cannot just declare war without congress approval. (the UN is not enough)

These are national polls.
Paul's chances of getting the GOP nomination are zero.
Why listen to you? You've been wrong too much and back candidates with horrible polices.
Why would someone not vote for the only person in Congress who told us from the minute the housing bill passed we would suffer econonomically as well as told us years before 9/11 happened that it would happen and gave the reasons why?
Quite trying to be right, you aren't very good at it
Mark my words ... All of your who are against Ron Paul. If your candidate wins, then i guarantee almost all of you will be hating them by the end of their first term, just like nearly everyone who voted for Obama ... They are all going to be doing the same thing that Obama is doing and that Bush did before him and our economy is going to crash worse then it ever has before.
