Why do you hate Ron Paul so much?
And, also who are you voting for? Why?
It seems like the people that hate Ron Paul have a lot of negative things to say, pointing out problems, but never have any solutions. Also, for some reason, the people that hate Ron Paul are so antagonistic, and I have no idea why.
I would say it would be easy for liberals to hate him. He would undo all the big government they've worked for, for decades.
People get discouraged and disappointed. As a defense mechanism they hate instead of grieve.
I will still vote Ron Paul. even if it means a write-in. I believe in him and that is it.
Most of the people who vehemently oppose him on these boards are conservatives, not liberals.Quote:

Republicans come down hard on him for a few reasons.
- He challenges them on how faithful they really are to the ideals they claim to uphold.
- He is actually very critical of his own party in many ways, so it's not surprising there is a backlash.
- He's not "on message," so he becomes a distraction and divisive figure for the GOP.
- Some probably think he reflects poorly on their party. Looney-bird, nut-case, crazy-aunt-in-the-attic kind of thing.
It really just comes down to my personal opinion. I am conservative, but I don't really care about the GOP as a whole if that makes any sense. I don't think that you are by default a republican if you are conservative, and I don't think Republicans are necessarily conservatives, obviously.
I have just used my own observations and concluded that he is one of those people that is full of shit. There has been alot of stuff already written by me and several others about this. I have posed some very relevant questions about him in multiple threads and still don't feel like they have been answered. They just get glazed over and usually people just repeat the same old boring Ron Paul rhetoric without acknowledging some glaring problems. I really wonder why so many people here support him so much? It doesn't make any sense to me, but maybe I am just a wacko. Just giving you an honest opinion.
ill have to look at those posts. though im just curious who do you support then? Seems all the other candidates are even more full of shit than ron paul.Quote:

It's always just a choice between applying the hand brake on the roller coaster headed to socialism or taking your hand off the brake.
I don't have any respect for Paul, he implies that he would "legalize HEMP" which is 1 of 3 species of marijuana, he chooses that word very very carefully when he does discuss anything related. I think that he is letting people believe as much as they want and if they think he will legalize cannabis sativa, or cannabis indica, then yeah he will take their vote. It is also dishonest, because I am pretty sure that HE KNOWS that if he were the president, there is really nothing he can do aside from clicking his heels and wishing that marijuana was legal. Explain how the president can rub his hands together and magically legalize a scheduel 1 narcotic. IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN. He doesn't care what you believe about him just so long as you send him some money and vote for him. I think he intentionally is decieving people (it's called lying by omission) whereas at least other politicians that have terrible ideas actually believe what they say. Does that make any sense?
Example, National Health Care, horrible idea, but Billary and Osama both actually believe that they are doing the right thing. They aren't out there stumping for it knowing all the time that for whatever reason they cannot deliver it.
For someone that is such a proponent of legalizing pot, there is not 1 word mentioning it on his website. Sure I can say "The war on drugs is bad, blah blah blah." Doesn't mean I am going to run for president. HOW EXACTLY, SPECIFICALLY WOULD HE LEGALIZE WEED JUST BECAUSE HE IS THE PRESIDENT? Even if Bush wanted to tomorrow, he couldn't. So how the fuck would Paul? Just because he says or implies that he would isn't good enough for me.
It's as empty as the rhetoric of "yes we can". Yes you can what? Make catchy rhymes? Chant in unisen?
All this coupled with the fact that prohibition is an issue that truly is near and dear to my heart, make me despise him. You can flip flop on issues, you can take opposing views, insult my intelligence by saying or implying that you will legalize weed if only you were fortunate enought to become president, then fuck off. He is distracting people that could otherwise use their own energy and efforts in a far better way to accomplish what they want. Just my opinion though I guess.:(
P.S.
The solution for the particular issue we are discussing in regard to marijuana prohibition, is to first get it re-schedueled. Until that happens nothing will change. And I am pretty certain the president can't just say, "ok, scratch that off the list now we're all done thanks." Anyone that is advocating for legalization would have to address this first before anything else is done. That's not an opinion, it's a fact. So go back and find out how this magical man is going to do that. I can save you some time, because he can't. He also doesn't mention this. For someone that is so smart and serious about doing this, how does he miss this little step?:wtf:
he never said he will automatically make it legal, i dont know where your getting this bullshit info. HE STANDS FOR Freedom and other constitutional rights our bullshit leaders have been stepping on for years. and has said to medical marijuana paitients he supports the legalization/decrim , never promised to make it happen. support is better than bullshit excuses like everyone else.
watch this video. YouTube - Ron Paul - Seattle WA 1/31/08
you seem to not research but just hear about stuff and assume. I really think you should research mccain more before supporting another bullshit president.
I didn't say I got this info, this is what is a "popular belief" about him. Just read this forums, they are filled with tons of examples of this misinformation about him. I actually have challenged people to show me when he has said he would legalize. So far, chirping crickets. But like you just said, I already know that he HAS NOT TAKEN THIS POSITION. Hence why there is nothing said on his campaign website.Check angry nomads sig for example. He allows false rhetoric to be spread about him for the sake of gathering "fringe group votes" that he has absolutely no intrest in representing. I do agree with some of his perspectives on the constitution and in regard to the federal governments responsibilities, but I can also find much more that I agree with from almost anyone that isn't a flaming liberal socialist. He is a full of shit. I don't like McCain that much, but I believe that Ron Paul is not in the presidential race. So why would anyone vote for him? In fact I am sure that I saw somewhere today that he was withdrawing to "focus" on his congressional seat. He's not a career politician though is he? He's different huh? Whatever. :wtf:Quote:

-They fucking govern the people instead of letting parents take blame for incidents.
-They all flip flop constantly on their stances whenever heat occurs.
-They never stand for what they truely believe in.
your exactly the type of person they encourage. you say you disagree but your voting simply because you claim ron paul doesnt have a chance.
about your his dropping race to focus on congressional seat he has stated:
"I also have another priority. I have constituents in my home district that I must serve. I cannot and will not let them down. And I have another battle I must face here as well. If I were to lose the primary for my congressional seat, all our opponents would react with glee, and pretend it was a rejection of our ideas. I cannot and will not let that happen."
EDIT: i forget, he does support the complete legalization of marijuana, i never meant to agree with you on the fact that he hasnt supported it. Just the fact that he hasnt promised if he becomes president, it will be legal.
heres one example vid:YouTube - IOWA CAUCUS 2008: Ron Paul attacks War on Drugs
LMFAO!! :S2: This is so fucking funny I will have to make a whole seperate post to respond!!! Nah, I will just tear it apart now!

Well, this isn't my very very first time voting he he, and I have forgotten more about John McCain then you will ever learn since you first started trying to find out who he was 12 days ago. I don't think that it is safe to assume that I just recently even heard his name and learned everything I know about him from 12 days worth of breathing, which is obviously your working assumption about me, might be true for you I guess, I don't know why you would assume it to be true for anyone else?
That's what I didn't say to you the first time because I was trying to be nice.:S4::asskick:

That's a very intelligent response!

Wow, that's a really strong point. So far I have been really lucky and not been accidentally killed by any doctors yet. And I can somehow magically still afford to have a family and house and car and whatever. Gosh it feels good to be rich I guess. Don't know how else to explain it?:asskick:Quote:

You see you only use that one when someone actually says that they aren't going to vote for him because they don't think he can win. Wow. :stupid:Quote:

Ron has not said he would "legalize" it, just allow states the ability to decide on this matter. Much like his abortion stance. Click the Ron Paul link in my signature.
So this is based on him "asking the DEA to Back Off Pretty Please with Sugar On Top."
Then we all just stand back and it happens huh. Sounds easy alright! That's bull shit.
If you think that is just fine and peachy then ok. Vote for him.
That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. I know I took some liberty with his position, but that is what it amounts to. LMFAO No you're right, he would make a huge difference.:yeahright:
As was said previously in yet another post, his "plan" amounts to him being a magic genie and rubbing his hands together while snapping his fingers. It might as well be, same result. Except I bet he would be hot in pink underwear!:thumbsup:
The president can select, with the Senate's approval (or waiting for them to go on vacation like Bush does), a new head of an agency. Imagine if the DEA where run by Keith Stroup and John Walters (US Drug Czar) got his pink slip. The president can do more then you think he can. And its not "asking" the DEA to back off, its ORDERING them to back off. The DEA was created in the early 70's via an executive order and can be taken out just the same.Quote:

It's real simple... its got nothing to do with "hate", but it has everything to do with vast projects with half-vassed ideas. Sure he talks a good talk, and wants to do away with he IRS and the like, but then he never says *HOW* he's gonna do it. I can come up with all kinds of pie-in-the-sky stuff that I want to do too... but that doesn't mean that I have the ways and the means to actually *DO* it, or that I even have a plan of how I am gonna do it.Quote:

Just to be clear, I don't care at all what he does about herb. The fact is that the "war on drugs" is about to be over period. I won't be relying on some pres to do that, I'll be relying on the American people and there contempt for current gov.
But as to why I support ron paul, He has voted tons of times on the same moral plane as me. I like his ideas about small gov. I like his ideas about getting rid of welfare. I could go on and on but I wont.
My point is that, Its painfully clear that only one canadate could just run without changing themselves up to suit every quarter. I won't get into a debate about mccain or any of those others mask wearing fools. I see through there masks, I look closely at every canadate.
The way I see it, 2012 is supposed to be some prophetized "end time" and this seems like a good intro to that. On one hand we have a "100 year war " on the other we have "hillerycare" or "Democare" how ever you want to look at it. Fact is we don't need one bomb to destroy this nation. Just make our money worth nothing and watch us destroy ourselves.
No reason to "hate" Ron Paul but I don't agree with what he's selling. I don't agree with his stance on bringing all the troops home from across the world, his stance on abortion, and if anyone thinks that his plan to reconstruct government would ever pass by Congress and Senate is living in a dream. He has virtually no ties with either party and it would just end up in gridlock for the next 4 years.Quote:

I hope it happens also BUT there are more important issues to look at.Quote:

Hey just wanted to express how impressed I was with you, and even though he hasn't posted yet, angry nomad as well.
You both seem very well informed, and actually attempt to present an argument advocating your position. Are you sure you know what you are doing. Don't you want to have a good cry and call me names instead of exchanging ideas?;) I am just kidding you two of course, that is a reference to the typical under 18 Ron Paul supporters that are rushing to their lovers defense here! Keep it lively!
i personaly like ron paul hes racist and wants to legalize pot what else could you want i really want mccain and him to run together but that will never happen
Careful! There are some people that post here that will start shaking and having convulsions if you say anything negative about Ron Paul. They have 0 tolerance for it. And they will let you know that you are only allowed to post opinions that they don't agree with!:DQuote:

^ Wow...yeah he's a nazi and he's racist....
Everything you just said was completely and utterly wrong. Except for the part about the welfare system and thr public housing. And he's 100 percent right on those issues. Fuck welfare and public housing. THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T OWE YOU A DAMN THING. NO WELFARE. NO "free" HOUSING. I am way beyond sick and fucking tired of handing over 30-some percent of my pay check so some fucking asshole can continue on popping out children like a pez dispenser and not working. If you choose not to work you don't get a damn dime. NOTHING. NOWHERE in the constitution, federalist papers, nowhere does it say if you don't work others will pick up the slack.
This is why the government is ridiculous! Everyone wants a fucking hand out. Apparently no one has any work ethic anymore and damnit, they want their "free" housing and food and healthcare.
Get a fucking job people. It's like no one cares about the big picture. Were turning into one HUGE socialist nation b/c of welfare.

You are right on, those ARE some of the things that I agree with Paul about. But to a certain extent it is pie in the sky stuff. We have to accept that we already and will probably always have a certain element of the entitlement mentality that will exist here. It is nice though that there are a few out there that understand the bigger picture of what is going on.:postgood:
There isn't anything saying that over time we can't beat it back! I just don't agree that Paul is the man that is going to make any progress with these issues. I really think he is all talk, and at this point it doesn't matter at all. He is not running.
So the ? becomes, will you vote for McCain for the sake of not voting for Billary or Osama? The choice is pretty clear, Billary and or Osama either one will get us going on the fast track to socialism ten fold more than McCain. JMO:jointsmile:
Racist? Nazi sympathizer? I don't see where you support this information. Please show me what has caused you to believe that Ron Paul is a racist. Has he perhaps made a statement saying that he hates people of color? If so, enlighten me.Quote:
Originally Posted by The Dude Of Life

YouTube - Ron Paul remarks on allegations of being racist
Also, Ron Paul has openly stated that our drug laws target the black race and if elected he would pardon every non-violent drug offender in prison. Does that sound like the stance of a white supremacist to you?
To be quite honest, I can understand why a white supremacist would want Ron Paul to become president. Ron Paul upholds the constitution, look at his congressional voting record. This means he supports free speech. He is the ONLY candidate that I know of that has spoken of the importance of the constitution and free speech. Right now, the only tool that white supremacists and racists in general have is their right to free speech. So you tell me- If you were a white supremacist, and your ultimate goal was to spread your word about the masterdom of the white race, which candidate would you support?
I really feel that the media has put an unfair spin on the story. The donation from the white supremacist means one thing- that he supports Ron Paul. That does NOT mean that Ron Paul supports him. So would you rather have that $500 in the pocket of a white supremacist, who openly supports the oppression of all races but one, or in the pocket of a man who fully supports the constitution, a document that states "All men are created equal..." ? I'm sure if you looked through every single donation given to each candidate, there would be at LEAST one undesirable donation. Is this really what the campaign coverage has come to? Nitpicking through donations to find dirt on a candidate? Then I must say, Ron Paul should be proud that the media had to knock down his supporters to find dirt on him. That must be because he has a pristine voting record.
I find it really discouraging to see that people cannot even have an informed discussion without turning to name calling. It's just fucking immature. KUSH especially. You claim to "tear apart" peoples posts, but you haven't really presented facts.
"Hey, thanks I didn't realize that the Federal Government subsidized commercials on tv for drug companies. I don't watch much tv though. And when I do it has little to nill influence on me at all, even those hypnotizing government sponsored pharmaceutical ads. I think what you just said says a lot about you.!"
Ever hear of the FCC? I think I heard somewhere that they REGULATE TELEVISION AND PRINTED MEDIA. And as far as I've seen, they haven't done much regulation of the pharmaceutical industry. Or Alcohol and big Tobacco either. Interesting...
I like Ron Paul. I think the other republicans treated him like shit during the debates. He should have run on an independent ticket and I think he would have done better.
Ron Paul's heart is in the right place. He just ran on the wrong ticket!
But I am voting Obama.
Yeah golly gee, I really like Ron Paul, you know his strict views on LIMITING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT,
But I like Osama Hussein too. You know the flaming socialist liberal that fundamentally believes in ever increasing government size and influence and interference in the lives of Americans, don't forget increasing taxes and redistributing wealth!
So you can see how I like both of them! That makes perfect sense! Awww, the "young and mmhmm..educated".
thats 1 of the problems today, there is no such thing as lesser evil. theres evil and evil. i always heard my father talk about that and look at what happened with bush, he talked a good game and he was the lesser of evil but in reality he has destroyed abunch of stuff.Quote:

8182KSKUSH - I hope that any true and knowledgeable Paul supporter will tell you that he won't be able to simply "rub his hands together" and then weed will be legal. What he promises is to limit the federal government and to restore the rights of the citizens in your own state. This is also how he feels about ABORTION which many people see as a major issue. He doesn't want to run your country he wants to let YOU run YOUR country, and that's what i like so much about him. At this point in our "democratic" nation we as individual citizens have lost our voice in big government and he plans to restore the power of authority to the states government in which case people within their own state can come together and choose what they want and don't want to be legal. And if you live in a state that (the majority) doesn't agree with your own personal opinions there will more than likely be a state that you can move to that honors those values.
Honestly though... i don't even see weed legalization or abortion as an urgent topic of discussion. I think what is most important at this point is the status of our economy which government spending and raising taxes won't fix. Personally i don't know how anybody could vote for anyone else just for the simple fact of our economy. When it comes down to it all of the other candidates are just talking jibberish if they're not addressing the real problem which is our economy. It all comes down to the all mighty dollar. Without restoring our economy health care and social security promises are simply a joke because our economy cannot withstand either program. Unless of course you want your income taxes raised %110 or you would like lots of government spending and inflation and our dollar to only be worth 1/2 a Peso! haha :rastasmoke:
Also when it comes down to it we cannot prosper as a country until we get out of a war that we never should have went into and we cannot financially continue the empire building and policing of the world. Eventually whether you believe in karma or not, this will come back to bite us in the ass... it's the blowback affect.
PEACE and i hope this informed some of the misinformed :hippy:
8182, presidents have the greatest power in congress out of everybody with the power of persuasion. And he also proposes the budget. He can cut DEA spending if they don't agree to recategorize MJ. He might have to fight with congress, but presidents have a lot more power than you think.
There were way too many attacks in this thread than necessary. I honestly have no respect for someone that can't calmly express their opinion in a civilized manner and goes off on anyone due to their immediate assumptions based on who they choose to vote for.
