Why do the others not matter?
LOL @ these republican chumps laughing Ron Paul off the stage in 08, and now having to play nice seeing as how he is owning their tea party movement they keep trying to nuthug.
Because we said so (sarcasm).
Paul's son is running for Senate in KY to replace Bunning.
This could be a model for the teabaggers splitting the right-wing/red-state/bubba/dumb /Repug vote and ending up with a candidate that causes the losing right wingers to abstain from voting for, allowing the Dem to take the seat.
Rand leads the democrat by over 10% in the polls.
Ron Paul: Twenty top applause lines at SRLC -- Video
Get rid of the deficit.
I don't like a strong executive branch, I want a strong congress that exerts its prerogatives.
If we didn't do anything else but elect individuals who you could trust, that would always obey the cons ution, we would get out of this mess in no time.
Corporations run the country. We see that in the financial ins ution, we see it in the military industrial complex, and now we see it in the medical industrial complex.
There is going to be one piece of legislation I'm going to introduce. It will probably be one page long. And it will be to remove the mandate that you have to participate if you don't want to.
We only have two problems in Washington with the spending - Conservatives and Liberals.
All empires end for financial reasons and that is what the markets are telling us today.
I would say if you want to go to war; only congress can declare the war. Declare the war, know who the enemy is, go fight it and win it and get out of there.
We can do better with peace than with war.
Everybody has a right to life and liberty.
When we talk about protection for all life, I mean the protection of all life not just life designated by liberals. I believe premature, preborn life is just as valuable and should be protected.
We must protect personal choices. We don't need the government to tell us whether or not you are allowed to drink raw milk or not. Those decisions should be made by the individual and not by the nanny state.
Dangerous things for our children should be handled by their parents.
You can't pick and choose, you must cut spending every place and get back to a balanced budget.
The number one regulation is to regulate the Federal Reserve system.
Medicare and Medicaid are bankrupt; you can't save Medicare and Medicaid by creating another trillion dollar program.
The whole way has to be limited government....If you want the young people of this country, you better look at these viewpoints.
There's a revolution on the college campuses right now and they are not looking for hand outs. They are looking for freedom so they can get a job and take care of themselves.
Socialism fails; it might make you equal but you are all going to be equally poor.
The miracle for the freedom movement is the internet.

Ron Paul has nothing to do with the Tea Baggers. That was a bull "grassroots" movement started by corporations to co-op independents and libertarians to vote republican.
problem is the actual Tea Baggers don't know it.............and ALOT of them love Ron Paul........which is cool cuz Ron is the and a real conservative.
Ron Paul isn't "conservative", he is a libertarian. And the reason he won't ever get the RNC's support or win country-wide is that he comes across sounding supremely naive in debates, esp on issues related to foreign policy.
But I love that he's sucking away votes from the Republicans, just like the Tea Baggers and the other right wing nutjobs are doing.
Also, Mitt Romney will never win because a) he's Mormon and most Americans think Mormons are weird cult members and b) he's flipflopped on more than pancakes in a 24 hour diner.
Sarah Palin is the right's rock star, but consistently polls poorly against Dems except with the solid 30% who would vote for a stick in the mud if they ran it against a Dem.
The Republicans still have not found their candidate who could actually win against Obama. We'll see if they do.
What? Ron Paul understands foreign policy better than anyone, just read his books and learn how he predicted world events 30 years ago.
...and RON PAUL is a conservative.....you my friend have to read the definition of conservatism. He is not a NEOCON and that is what you are referring to.
ol ron yeah he big in van vleck texas, nuts live there
blessing texas, gods country
A Mormon from MA that implemented a socialist health plan?
Not a chance.
Slow down there, you mean to tell us that the person who implemented the MA health care plan that the Republicans are saying has bankrupted MA and is a model for how the rest of the country will end up...was actually a Republican?
Wrong. This is simply an anti-teabaggin' talking point.Ron Paul has nothing to do with the Tea Baggers. That was a bull "grassroots" movement started by corporations to co-op independents and libertarians to vote republican.
ron paul is as big an earmark spender as there is:
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/4935311.html
In Paul's defense, he's never said he's against earmarks. His stated position is that he believes that whatever dollars the federal government taxes away from his district he will try to get returned to his district. Make your own judgements as to his sincerity, but there it is.
Plus I think Paul should get a little slack with regards to earmarks in this past session seeing as how his district had been hit by Hurricane Ike.
Paul actually got in trouble in his district because people were believing he wasnt earmarking. his job is to represent his district, and when everyone wants him to ask the fed for money, it's his sworn job to do so.
the question becomes what is an "essential government function". if he was ever president he will find out quickly that whether he likes it or not, he better make the military priority number one.
ike i understand but old movie theaters and the marketing of wild shrimp i do not.
Not making the military his #1 priority is why he's got no shot at ever becoming president.
very true.
yaeh we need more military
Apparently we do, as evidenced by the suggestion earlier in this thread that Ron Paul comes across as naive for suggesting otherwise.
yaeh we need more military
of course we don't but the point is that paul would not have any choice as president when it comes to this matter.
