Dr Ron Paul, The only person with the common sense that all the others Do not have, He has my vote. He must become President, HE is our man Vote for him. Thank You much.
Ron Paul is the only non establishment candidate in the 2012 election cycle period. Fox news continues to snub this man and would rather promote slimeballs.
It scares me to think what will happen to this country, and the world, if Ron Paul does not become our president in 2012.
I am living in this country 44 years, I have voted in all presidential elections. I am not affiliated to any, but I was voting always republican, until the last election, which I voted for democrate nomini(Obama). But he dis appointed me. he did not fulfilled any of his promises. Like all his predecessors, he wants to be elected, regardless of what is going on in country. May be he can not deliver what he wants( AIPAC is too strong, Congress is not cooperating or any other reason) In an other word he can not overcome the obstacle. I n this case he should go to the people ( the way president regan was doing) and ask for help, not to submit.
I believe Dr. Ron Paul is the man, who can deliver what ever he promises, He is my man, he has my vote for sure.
This episode was such a delight to listen to! Go Ron Paul!!!
Vote and campaign enthusiastically for Ob-Gyn Dr. Ron Paul to help save our world!
This recording of Dr. Paul’s ideas is helpful to everyone! Spread the news to family and friends!
Markets decide – what a great idea….or is that the way the United States was…….We need a government we can trust not bought…………….our countries leaders need to be people…right now, they are all bought and paid for…..We need a president who can stand up and not be afraid of telling what they really feels…..We have only one chance for an honest president……Ron Paul……states decide…….not government…….God bless….
I intend to vote for Ron Paul and am supporting him with some dough. He is a fine American and worthy of our trust. How can you not be refreshed with a guy wearing a department store suit and an eight dollar tie. Please support him with some bucks.
The spirit of antichrist reigns in america today. I doubt if the deemorepublicrats will allow anyone like Ron Paul to be elected to the presidency. And even if it happens, the establishment congress and senate will block his every move.
Hey guys,
What you need to remember is that Ron Paul is the only candidate that has a 100% voting record of supporting the constitution. Either vote for Ron Paul or vote for your own enslavement, because if you vote for anyone else, you will be enslaved. Ron is in first, second, or third place in all the straw polls – mostly second or first. Their may also be the possibility that Governor Ventura may be his running mate. Grow a set and vote for who you believe in, not who you think will win.
I love Dr. Paul. Even if the Congress block many of his actions, just imagine the change for good he will bring to the office. No matter how he may be blocked in Congress, he can pull back disasterours Executive Orders, and Presidential Directive, stop the EPA carbon scam madness, and stop the FDA with their GMO salmon crap, and on and on.
Please consider giving to the Paul campaign today (9/30/11) http://www.ronpaul2012.com
Run Paul Run!
Ron Paul who wants to end all programs that the elderly, sick, unemployed and disabled rely on…including Medicare, Medicaid and drug coverage for the disabled and elderly. Ron Paul who has no problem with Iran having Nuclear weapons thought they threaten to wipe Israel off the map. Ron Paul who advocates a free flow of weapons to Hamas even though the Hamas charter call for the death of all Jews and the destruction of Israel. Ron Paul who says the government should not help those facing major disasters. RON PAUL = AN ENEMY OF AMERICA AND OUR ALLIANCES.
That’s a blatant lie, if you have followed Dr. Paul at all. He has always expressed making priorities- and taking care of the sick and elderly (along with the veterans) will not be cut for those who are dependent. We will have to give up welfare for foreigners- in favor of taking care of our own countrymen. But the vast majority of Americans support that. Ron Paul wants to TRANSITION away from big government welfarism and dependence- but he has NEVER suggested cutting off the most needy.
An enemy of Jesus Christ? Your faith is horribly twisted, have mercy on your soul
JTWilliams – I couldn’t have said it better myself. I think there are a bunch of corporate – controlled media whores working for the new world order posting on this site.
Daniel,
Not sure where you get your infor. or logic but you are way off,do your homework you could not be more far off to the truth,Ron Paul is our answer to turning us around in America.
If nothing else [enemies of ron paul] you have to admit he’s the ONLY canadate running that will answer any question you throw at him with an honest forthright answer.He dosen’t stammer around and try to think of an answer that will sound right or witty or gain him a higher pole rating.He comes right at you with what he really thinks ! You or I may not agree with all his ideas or policies but at least your getting the truth as he sees it.Thats a quality long since LOST in politics.Thats called INTEGRITY. a quality drastically missing in the whitehouse. Paul/Palin 2012 ! lets turn this trainwreck {called the Obama administration } around.
Daniel, Ron is all about following the constitution. Does he go to far is some areas? Yes. Foreign policy is a weak area for him and he is far too isolationist for me BUT he has the right perspective. Too bad we are (and especially you) have too much trepidation to actually consider his ideas.
Open your eye and smell the roses.
The only thing that keeps me from possibly voting for Ron Paul is his “Head in the Sand”, military naivety, with a 300,000,000 Strong Chinese army, and an Russian/China joint military ventures maybe against the USA, and our indefensible electrical grid, that is appears even an Iran/Venezuelan w/Russian bombers now in place, a join venture could knock out our entire electrical grid from an EMP strike, sending us back to the stone age with no electricity or water. From their joint bases in Venezuela we are sitting ducks without a strong offencive military. The other issue is Ron Paul’s disregard for our Israeli allies, and his love for the Philistines. God Almighty gave Israel to the Jew, and even handed Goliath over to King David, in order to run the Philistines out of Israel, now Ron Paul wants to come against God Almighty Himself, Ron won’t last long as an enemy of Jesus Christ.

Other than that Ron has some very good ideas.
I am and have been very impressed with about 75% of what Dr. Ron Paul has to say. As a fellow Texan I like his common sense approach to allot of subject matter. However it is the 25% that he says that scares me. He just gave a press conference in which he said that the resent drone attacks that killed some big time bad guys (oh one or two were U.S. citizens) as an assassination, and that they were due a trial. We have had and hope will always have a list of wanted criminals (FBI TOP 10…etc.) which these people could turn themselves in and go on trial. But when their hands are so bloody with American’s blood, and they continue to help our enemy that is what is called a traitor and someone who has denounced his citizenship on several occasion, he was no more an American than those people who come across our boarders, and have a baby here. Being born here isn’t or shouldn’t be the only requirement . He was clearly an enemy of all American ‘s. Killing him is not the end as we should know we have domestic bad guys & gals right now living in the U.S. and taking advantage of our freedoms we all enjoy. But you have to have a line inwhich you don’t cross. (Like you can’t scream fire in a movie theater or insight a riot without getting into trouble). Then there is things he has said about
The Constitution reads that our troops can only be sent to war under the authority of Congress, not the President. He becomes Commander-In-Chief after war is Constitutionally declared. Additionally, war is under our Constitution to be used to “ensure domestic tranquility” and prevent foreign invasion. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and every war since WWII have not been fought according to our Constitution.
Currently our troops are fighting under UN declarations and NATO, a UN Chartered agency. (Google the NATO Charter for direct references to the UN Charter). This not only violates our Constitution and our elected representatives oaths of office, it has also made our troops and taxpayer dollars the property and aim of the UN. We are sacrificing our blood and money and good name at the altar of the corrupt, Godless and terror supportive UN.
At a time when this nation is deeply in debt ($46,000 per citizen and growing) not only can we not afford this economically but we cannot afford this morally or legally under our rule of law, the U.S. Constitution.
Ron Paul is the only political representative in Congress who has consistently stood up to his oath of office. He has the truth of his solemn oath and its roots in the natural laws of God behind him not the Godless UN. I support Dr. Paul’s approach to uphold, protect and defend the U.S. Constitution not the UN.
Case in point. Libya, which our current President just entered under UN authority and NATO is now conducting genocide of the black population eliminating entire towns and shooting blacks mob style in the back of the head with arms bound behind them. Additionally, the rebels who are connected to Al Qaeda it seems, are instituting Sharia law which negates personal liberty and our freedom based Constitutional natural law as expressed in our Bill of Rights. This is what happens when you violate our rule of law and engage in entangling alliances with other nations warned against by both Jefferson and Washington, our first Commander in Chief.
I support Ron Paul’s call to withdraw our troops from UN based wars and protect our domestic tranquility as they are intended to. This alone will save us over $1 Trillion a year and also secure our borders against the invasion of up to 20 million illegal immigrants already which is costing us additional billions and compromising our domestic safety as well.
Ron Paul has some VERY wrong ideas, a weaker military is a big one, but so is is ideas of legalizing drugs… Do you seriously want to make drugs legal?? That will only be yet another death blow to the moral fabric of our country.
Ron Paul has been saying for years that we don’t need to be wasting our tax dollars fighting foreign wars that the U.N. gets us in to. We got in to the wars in Korea and Vietnam because of the U.N. and
“peacekeeping” missions. They end up costing us thousands of lives and billions of dollars for NO REASON! The only ones who get rich off this is the military complex and the international bankers who back both sides of the war. Our national debt was increased 43 times by the Civil War and it’s been going up with every war since.
People from Saudi Arabia attacked us on 9/11 — not Afghanistan or Iraq. On top of everything we spend billions rebuilding these countries after the insurgents blow it up and never get the money back. The whole thing is ridiculous!
With Muslim Sharia Law, the people from these countries will NEVER have freedom like we understand it. It’s stupid for us to try and force U.S. type freedom on to Muslim countries. it will never work.
It would be better for us if we spent our time and energy ending “socialist democracy” here in the U.S. That is what Ron Paul wants to do. Restore our “Republic” and end this empire building!
