I was wondering what you all thought of Ron Paul. I am kinda liking him. He seems a little like the government reset button to me. Any thoughts?

Seems ok but his wanting to get our troops out of every country we're in is naive.

"9. Ron Paul delivers babies without his hands. He simply reads them the Bill of Rights and they crawl out in anticipation of freedom"

I think I peed on myself...

I can't decide if Ron Paul is really the man for the job or if he just appears to be because everyone else is obviously not.

Yes, you're probably right.

I do think he's the best candidate running, though.

I think that out of the candidates, he's my current choice. He's the one making the most sense, and the fool in me wants to believe him.

I agree with Paul on some of his positions (for instance, I believe the "War on Drugs" is a massive waste of time and money), but he doesn't believe prayer in public school should be prohibited and introduced the We the People Act(essentially, he doesn't support the separation of church and state). He is also a creationist and is rabidly pro-life (opposing abortion in all forms). Not my candidate.

You may be surprised how many politicians (Democrat and Republican) don't believe in evolution, one of the many reasons I've lost hope in American politics.

@I'maDC/ImageGuy!: Ha, yeah, I'm actually pretty into  theories....but, Alex Jones is kind of insane, not saying he's always wrong....but thinking he's right about everything is nuts. Alex Jones is no different from any other Cult leader. Except, he's probably jealous he doesn't make as much money and is not as famous.

Exactly, Alex Jones is right about a great many things...but I feel he gets to dramatic with it, sure, the government constantly does shady things, but he acts like Emporer Palpatine is running the US and mobilizing the downfall of reality.....what a nut!

What does conspiracy have to do with liking a candidate? I am not one but believe our system has been corrupted by money. Why do we get bills like the pizza is a veggie one? Because the frozen food lobbyists pay to play. So far Ron Paul says he isn't someone who works that way but who knows. Obama isn't the person he platformed as either.

@ApatheticAvenger: He's not outright Pro-Life. He takes the libertarian view on it. Yes he supports Pro-Life, this correlates directly to his being an obstetrician, but he wouldn't want the government enforcing these rules. He does support more of a states right view in a general sense. So each state could enforce its own laws regarding this issue. And if you don't like it in your state, become a responsible citizen and actually partake in the government.

Paul opposes abortion because he believes it is "an act of aggression" against a fetus, which according to him possesses legal rights. How exactly is that not "outright Pro-Life"?

He are some of his published statements:

"The right of an innocent, unborn child to life is at the heart of the American ideals of liberty. My professional and legislative record demonstrates my strong commitment to this pro-life principle."

"In 40 years of medical practice, I never once considered performing an abortion, nor did I ever find abortion necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman."

"Abortion on demand is no doubt the most serious sociopolitical problem of our age. The lack of respect for life that permits abortion significantly contributes to our violent culture and our careless attitude toward liberty."

"I believe beyond a doubt that a fetus is a human life deserving of legal protection, and that the right to life is the foundation of any moral society."

@gravitypress: What I'm doing here is making fun of the guy who is surrounded by scumbags who are pretty much bought out by the system. Can he make it better by any chance,I don't think so since he's making many promises like his predecessor. Than again most people just projected their veiws on to him anyway. Most of the people that will vote for him are hardcore conspiracy theorist or people who are so fustrated on whats going on believe he will get rid of the bums in office, but not really. I'm sick of people telling me to vote for Ron Paul without a second thought as if he's the return of christ whom will lead us to the promise land or that he isn' t bought out politican because he doesn't attended a secret meeting in sweeden or something. I honestly don't really care anymore on what happens with the world, you reap what you sow.

I've been a fan of Ron Paul for years. That said I do disagree with him on a number of issues. The thing i love about Ron Paul is that he makes a lot of logical points and says things that are true, but other politicians are afraid to say. Unfortunately he does have some squirrely ideas, and some of these take away from his validity as a true contender.

He is great because he will speak the truth, and not worry as much about having the "traditional" conservative views....sadly that is why he will not get the nomination.....

ts, Republicans. SIlly lines drawn that make people think they have to behave a certain way politically. Think for yourself, parties mean nothing.
