I'll admit it, I am a fan of a lot of Ron Paul's stances. Not all of them, but as a self-proclaimed "liberaltarian" I can get behind a good amount of his issues.
Here's the problem. A lot of the craziest people flock to Ron Paul. The conspiracy nuts love him, in particular. And so, because of that bad rap, it makes me leery about siding with Ron Paul.
I liken it to being a nerd. I fully admit I am one... I read comics, I work on networks, I like geeky stuff. However, if I go into a comic store and see two people playing Magic the Gathering, they're probably living stereotypes... overweight or far too skinny, acne, glasses, and bad hygiene.
So even if I thought Magic the Gathering was a great game, and liked playing it, I still wouldn't bring it out in the open because so many of those bad examples of nerds are promoting the stereotype.
In essence, I just wish Ron Paul supporters would stop acting like dumb fucktards, so people who like some of Ron Paul's stances can say so without being grouped in with a bunch of moonbats.
