Quote from andyfico : Right but when he says things like he will cut a trillion dollars out of the budget, that scares people. Most people would rather hear Obama's line of taking a scalpel to the budget instead of a "radical" across the board slashing of the budget. That makes him sound like a clueless crazy man. Again, I don't necessarily disagree with Ron Paul. The problem is that most Americans will never vote for him because they perceive him as "radical".

Right. And having the trifecta of Rush/Hannity/Levin against him bashing him mercilessly certainly doesn't help. Levin might be the worst in that regard. I've heard Levin bash people for disregarding the Constitution, etc, and then literally a minute or two later he starts bashing Ron Paul on something stupid despite him being the champion of the Constitution a minute prior if given his due.

There was a GOP debate where the candidates were asked something like, "What would you do over about your campaign?" Paul said something and then added he wishes he was a better speaker to get his views across better.

I think he'd have won a lot more policemen of the world over on the foreign stuff if he'd have stuck with just saying if there's a reason for war such as with Iran, we'll do it, just have Congress properly declare it is all. And on the trillion in cuts, I think pointing out what the federal budget was a mere five years ago would help. Or that we've only been off the gold standard since 1971.

Quote from Deusxmachina : Read the Constitution and take your oath of office seriously omg so radical

Pain sooner than later is what it boils down to. Make no mistake, the consequences of extending and pretending for the past 41 years will not be easy for anyone.

Pain would be minimal since all the war spending would vanish and would go back into the economy... Exactly what Wall Street DOESN'T want...

No it wouldn't. It will be bad regardless. Think about it. It's too late to fix it; you can only prepare for the inevitable. To think otherwise means you'll be skinned alive. At least with RP the hole-digging will come to an end.

It wouldn't be much different than when WW II ended... All the troops came home and we had the post war economic boom of the 1950's...

Quote from nobama : If RP runs 3rd Party, then I would consider him to be a traitor to America, having ensured a win for obama.

What a farking joke.

Quote from JimOfTroy : What a farking joke.

I know right. It amuses/scares me that there are people out there who think even if RP republicans voted for Mitt against Obama he stands any chance. No moderate liberal will vote for Mitt. And he sure can't excite the independents because they are smart enough to know that his kind is a part of the problem.

It's pretty obvious what he supports, the status quo, intrusive big government, the police state, and the illusion (or maybe delusion) of a two party system.
