Ron Paul Predictions from 02, scary

[Stewart Landry]

[FRANK BARCA]

Holy shit

[Charlemange August K.]

yea to bad all the paulites are slacktivists and won't vote.

[Jason_C]

3rd overall in Iowa with 1/5th of the total vote and 2nd overall in NH.

Those damn slacktivists....

keep in mind these caucuses and primaries are about delegates. Ron Paul is doing just fine and regularly blowing out the others in the 18-29 age bracket as well as independents.

Ron Paul is the best out there right now, and his tie is pretty kick ass too

Paul Wrong. His ideas on bringing the troops home are great but he's a nut.
Anybody who is against the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a racist pure and simple.
Why couldn't the jackass admit he was wrong?!
Black people and other minorities would still not be allowed to eat in restaurants
and other public places or it would have been years later. In 1952 or so blacks
were intergrated into the military. I'm sure Ron Paul would have been against that too.

Just imagine little black kids not allowed to swim in public swimming pools. Black
athletes not allowed to compete against whites etc. etc. Not allowed to stay
at the same motels and hotels as whites. There was
a famous black actress who put her toe in a swimming pool in Vegas one time. They
drained the pool and had black guys scrub it. Go figure. But it gets much much worse.
Black people who would get seriously injured in car accidents or whatever and then would
be refused treatment at white hospitals. And you have this a**hole Ron Paul against
the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to protect restaurant owners. All those Repub candidates
are fruitcakes and in many ways worse than Ron Paul, that I will admit but being
against the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is el colmo!

By the way I was against the war in Iraq from the start and protested against it.
Argued with my fellow grapplers over it too and was much critcized for it. I not
only want to bring the troops home I didn't want to send them there in the first place. I'm
former military myyself. I served 6 long years in the Army. I use to run with a rifle yelling kill kill kill!
Shot expert. Was a champion at the pogo sticks and all that. Fired 60mm machine gun, crawled
under bobwire with a machine live machine gun shooting over my head with a gas mask on and a
rifle in my hands and I'm not against war per se but against wars that are not neccesary and are
for profit like Iraq was.

the civil rights act has done nothing but create even more segregation. jobs must meet a status quo of a certain racial composition because of it as opposed to skill. Read his arguements more carfully.

the constitution already gave what benefits people from the civil rights act. The fact it had to be made in the first place was awful.

[Daniel Valdez]

It is important to take what he says in context. I read what he said and I agree for the most part. He says over and over again he is against separation of races and isn't racist. I see it as he is searching for true constitution approved laws. And he states why it isn't a legal act. I agree to a point. I think it did more good than bad.
Read for yourself. http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul188.html
Is there something there I am missing that says because he is against it he is racist?
Just because I agree that KKK have the right to have hate parties in their own home doesn't mean I am racist. I don't think this makes him racist either, he could be, but I don't think his position on the issue does.

[Nathan Wallner]

If he runs with Kucinich as an Independent he would have an easier time getting elected as most Americans don't agree 100% with Republicans or Democrats. He is trying to take as many people as he can from the Republicans but they all shun him and his values don't seem to fall in line with any of theirs, so I think he should break off. He doesn't talk like a racist, he might have said some things in the past but if you look at this guy today and what he talks about I don't feel their is any hidden agenda in his voice. Obama said all the right things too though and he is a very motivational speaker. I don't know about RP's stance on private property because if a giant multi billion dollar gas and oil company can afford to buy a giant area of land does that give them the right to exploit the resources that are on that property? As we see larger and larger areas of land being exploited and corrupted by these big oil companies, more water is becoming poisoned and more environment is being destroyed. At least Obama has stood with the environment and understands that there has to be some sort of regulation because when we are dealing with corporations that can harm the environment for other people and animals, the rights of every living thing should supersede those of a corporation. Ron Paul hasn't said enough about the environment for me, which should be the most important issue. Without clean air and water, it doesn't matter what you do with the fed.
