Ron Paul wants to return the dollar to the gold standard.

= He is a lunatic

Voting for a candidate who advocates:
+ withdrawal from WTO, IMF, NAFTA and the UN
+ abolition of the Fed and return to a hard gold standard
+ public tax subsidies to home schoolers
+ elimination of all foreign aid programs
+ personal freedom and freedom from governmental interference while at the same time sponsoring a bill that would remove federal court jurisdiction from plaintiffs who seek vindication of certain constitutional rights he personally disagrees with,

is moronic.

The ONLY way you get the media's attention is with money. They didn't even talk about Paul until he had the ~$5 million donation day.

Interesting observation.

Not to be out done by Chuck Norris' announcement to support Mike Huckabee....

Ron Paul announces that he has the full support of.....

Richard Simmons.

First off, that's a lie, Mac. Secondly, so what if he did? Are you saying that gay guys aren't allowed endorse candidates, or that Ron Paul shouldn't accept their support?

I think that our socialist friend hortlund will explain why the liberals... once they realize what ron paul is about will come unglued..

"Voting for a candidate who advocates:

Now.. all those things sound real real real good to me but... hortlund and his ilk would go into apoplexy.

I just noticed Hortlund is Swedish. In that case, don't you still have a king or something?

Ron Paul interviewed by Mike Church

(linked article is Mike Church's summary of the interview and a link to the mp3.)

After the interview Mike Church almost endorsed Ron. While they disagree on the war, he said Ron is intellectually honest about his opposition unlike the democrats, and he praised his view of the Constitution and limited government. Great stuff.

A caller said after the interview (30minutes) he is switching from Huckabee to Paul.

I don't give a damn about what a foreigner thinks about a American candidate, especially one from a socialist country. Get your own house in order and mind your own business.

Torque · « **Reply #311 on:** December 01, 2007, 05:52:56 AM »

does he still lead in military personnel contributions... crack me up.

the man is too honest to come power... but he does expose the false flag frauds and their hidden agenda.

irony... ron paul and chavez have somewhat the same ideas.

Sure, I can explain it. Trying to return the dollar to the gold standard is about as possible as abandoning money alltogether and return to some barter-system. It would kill the US economy, but hey, knock yourselves out, I prefer the Euro anyway.

But I wouldnt expect you to understand any of it. You are, after all, a complete retard.

Think about this one for a sec. LOL who am I kidding. You cant. But, ok, for the rest of you, think about this one for a sec.

+ personal freedom and freedom from governmental interference while at the same time sponsoring a bill that would remove federal court jurisdiction from plaintiffs who seek vindication of certain constitutional rights he personally disagrees with.

Now, surely you arent all as retarded as lasz, so...what happens when the federal courts dont have jurisdiction to step in when someone disagrees with a constitutional right, and a local court has agreed with him? Can you think of any consequences for...say...segregation, same-sex-relationships, abortion, gun rights, and all the other individual freedoms guaranteed in the constitution?

Wasn't it MSNBC that took down their republican primary poll site because they "didn't want it to serve as a platform for beating the ron paul drum" ?

I'm not retarded.

I remember the gold standard very well. What was wrong with it and why is the current system better?

Creeping federalization of all matters is the issue. Gun rights and racial/gender equality are addressed in the constitution, so there is federal court jurisdiction to guarantee those rights. The other issues are reserved for the states, and that is explicit in the constitution. That is Ron Paul's position and the basic premise of the states that united to be called the United States of America.

Driving decisions down is heralded in all businesses, but it doesn't apply to governing?
