Comments on: Ron Paul: GOP Needs To Change

Political Players: Republican Candidate Discusses Iraq, Electability, and Third Parties

[wonder25]

The Ron Paul juggernaut now sits at 1.8%! Wow! With Hillary, Edwards and Obama all distinguishing themselves as being :

Hillary: supported every position in existence on Iraq
Obama: "No flags, No pledge, my patriotism is being a traitor to America...."
Edwards: "That gay guy is leering at me--I''m uncomfortable....Lizzy!"

I say the Dems draft Ward Churchill--he isn''t what he says he is either! ( Track #5 on my CONSERVATIVE music CD--''The Two wards'')

Every so often our nation seems to drift away from our Constitutional moorage and likewise a real patriot will step up to the plate to put this in check. Ron Paul is this "man of the hour" that will do this. His voting record walk proves his campaign talk. I have heard hypocritical statesmen say we need a new constitution to live by. This attitude is far more dangerous to let grow than any war or issue we are entangled in. Folks! I have read good and plenty the writings of our founding fathers in regards to the issues of their day (nothing has changed since). If you think politicians are milk toast potlickers now, wait till you read up on the "quality" and "integrity" of the ones with whom we have to do concerning our national birth. And these politicians today act like they are so much wiser because of their increased knowledge that they alone can out trump Thomas Jefferson, Samual Adams, James Madison, etc..??? Knowledge is indeed the Sword of Good and Evil. And it will obey the name (national sovereignty, world globalism)of its wielder. Listen up Americans, the swords that our leaders have forged since 9/11/01 are double edged weapons, one side for terrorists, the other side for patriots. We can''''t afford to let this sword be weilded by the wrong person.........Ron Paul, the "ONLY" un-CFR, unsocialist, and pro-constitution candidate for ''''08! GO USA!!!

Ron Paul is the Andrew Jackson of the 21st Century. Note his opposition to a National Bank and his populism and emphasis on individual liberty.
The press better pay attention here and fully research his positions. This comming election cycle is going to be nothing like what this nation has seen since at the 1840s. The voter is totally tuned out. Most voters could care less about who is running and why. Most people will start paying attention after January,if one is lucky, proabably early Spring. Now, conventional wisdom says that by then, it is all over.
The oppostion of Ron Paul to a National Bank has enormous economic implications. In the Jackson era, the elimination of a National Bank created some degree of ecomonic choas, but due the fact we were an agrian nation, the impact was small.
When we saw the problems of not having a National Bank in our management of internatioal debt and currency issues, a new National Bank was formed in 1913.
It is a fact of history that the gold standard exacerbated the great depression. Ron Paul supports the Gold standard. The Federal Reserve has many problems, but I do not think that it is good to throw the baby out with the bath water.
The polls in this presidental election are meaningless. The actual results in this primary cycle will vary tremdously from what the current poll numbers seem to show. Do not be suprised if each primary shows contradictory results causing a complete stalmate.

Hats off to thefarrier for taking the time to clearly lay out Ron Paul''s agenda, philosophy, and voting record in many of today''s most salient issues. He''s doing the job that the MSM refuses to do. As a Republican who''s always been uncomfortable with the war, I think Ron Paul''s position is right on hte money. His no-nonsense approach to government spending, immigration, and many other issues has my support. He''s got my vote.

[jowand]

The Republican Party needs to change alright, it needs to go back to Conservative principals. Ron Paul needs to go back to the Libertarian Party, he''s a Trojan Horse who couldn''t get elected as a Libertarian.

[wonder25]

The real Ron Paul question is why CBS would feature this article for 5 days now. He is THE most marginal candidate in years--no prayer (literally). He is an odd man with no chance just given the polls and his platform. So HE is on CBS telling us how the GOP has to change? From what I can see, the GOP has been successful in getting Dems to :

Vote for the war
Vote for 2 supplement bills
Vote for the Patriot Act
Vote for data mining
Vote for the surge
Vote for eavesdropping

***all of these things the Dems have whined and moaned about--yet voted FOR in the end...Who needs to change?????? I say it in song:

I wonder if anyone is noticing that all of Ron Paul''s interviews now center around the same questions: If not nominated for Republican will you go independent? If not nominated will you support another candidate? I think this is some type of subconscious manipulation, really. They are trying to make it sound like Ron Paul could not win. Like there is no chance. Like the only options he has are to support another candidate. It is...well you know what it is. Ron Paul is going to win. Period.

[wonder25]

Okinup: ''Never for any war'' One question: let''s say you were living in Poland when Hitler simply steamrolled in. Would you have support fighting back? Just a simple question. Don''t go ''pie in the sky'' theory---yes or no. Fight back? Don''t compare the question to Iraq--I ''m not. In the case I presented...fight back?

[wonder25]

Ron Paul? Sure. Edwards? He is ''uncomfortable'' with gay men. Hillary is exactly what she appears to be--all over the map in order to get elected--no core at all. EXACTLY why this police officer made America''s only politically CONSERVATIVE music CD. Someone had to address Hillary (''Hillaryous''-track#2), Al Gore (''Hot Air''-track#1) and the Ward Churchill gang. I did--to music! conservativemusiconline.com

Its the truth that there is a problem with the justice system in this country. It is incontrovertibly biased and racist and classist. Its the truth that there is a problem with America providence, the providence of freedom in this country, and civil rights and equality. It is incontrovertibly biased.

I will elect the one who I think best represents the problems we have in this country. The one who was NEVER for ANY war. Who say this thing from day one for what it really was. And who, if I''ll elect, will get to the bottom of the top secret conspiracy. And bring warranted pride back to this country. A people truly free..

[okinup]

The status quo is a top secret basement somewhere that doesn''t need justification of excuse, and has never even been presented with that circumstance before. Rich? Unaccountable people. Who think they rule my politics. They don''t. They lie for a living.

[okinup]

The whole notion of "knowing someone" based on their campaigns is fictitious. How am I to know someone? By what the television tells me? By what they tell me? So many people live vicariously thru the television set in this country, it is recluse. I can only judge a person by what I think is the american way. And I see racism in this country? Sexism? Corporatisms? Wars for no reason? I pick the person I know the least. The person I think best represents my american value system. And thats Barrak Obama.

[brianbwb-2009]

Of all the candidates on both sides, Paul''s words are the least objectionable, but as with all politicians they are only words, soon to be forgotten after the election.

My problem is that he has aligned himself with the Republicans, the party which includes the KKK, Aryan Nations, the Pats, (Robertson and Buchanan) Robert Novak, David Duke, Bush/Cheney, and others of such ilk.

That he felt more comfortable supporting the party that panders to these virulent racists and fascists is antithetical to me, a "Black" American. I would never even entertain the beginnings of a thought to casting my vote to this party. To accommodate even one inch to these people is one inch closer to the demise of my ethnic heritage.

I believe he would have been more effective had he remained Libertarian, but he chose, of his own volition, to join the party ruled by sociopathy.

[okinup]

We are the mass murderers of the world.

[okinup]

You always seem to have two kinds of people running for the most powerful office in the world. The status quo, and the people feeling guilty of their status quo. We live in a country guilty of genocide.

[okinup]

Politics has taught me not to listen to people like Paul, who''ve been there every single election I can remember with these radical differences in their campaigns with all the others, and nothing ever changes. One doesn''t have to be a president to institute change. Change is not a thing that needs power. It is a thing that happens out of its own merits, and nobody else''s. As a representative, indeed; as a citizen of this country, that should be entirely enough to revolutionize politics. And if it isn''t than he''s a liar like all the others.

Trust nobody with the (R) or the (D) or the (I) in this treacherous treasonous government. In a free society a man or woman gets elected by his or her name.

In his speech, Bush also took the unusual step of directly addressing members of the americans and the military. "When AMERICANS rise up to demand their liberty %u2026 you''ve got to make a choice," he said. "Will you defend a disgraced and dying order by using force against your own people? Or will you embrace your people''s desire for change? There is a place for you in the free AMERICA.

Human survival depends on a community-based, people-centered alternative beyond the failed extremist ideologies of communism and capitalism. This alternative is already being created through the initiatives of millions of people around the world who are taking back control of their lives and communities to create places where people can live and grow in balance with the living earth. When Corporations Rule the World provides an agenda of national and global reforms by which we may reclaim our power to localize economies while globalizing consciousness.
