I like Ron Paul, but realisticly he has no shot at winning this.

Like some of his ideas, but he's a whacko on some stuff too.

I dunno Pep, some of his stuff borders on insane. I like some of his ideas (especially with the budget and the deficit) but beyond that, he's kinda out there and seems a little looney to me.
He's the OG tea party guy that all the new age retards are poorly copying off of.
He's got alot of stuff that maybe sounds cool but in actual practice might not work that well. But maybe let's elect him and bring all the troops home shut down all the foreign bases, give up the empire and see what happens? We'll save an assload of money that's for sure.

I always thought we should be all in one way or another.
This country needs to be liberatered, but that one doesn't? I think we'd make more enemies if we stopped dropping rice and buffalo bills SB champion t-shirts from a plane

All his foreign policy stuff is a mess, supporting losers like Cynthia McKinney is mind boggling...I think he's fairly anti-military and would likely be weak on national security and defense

I'd wager, from reading some of your political posts, I and many others would think most candidates you support are wacko.

You don't think it makes sense to worry about our own issues before worrying about the rest of the world's? I think it makes a lot of sense that all the meddling we do in other countries has caused the extreme backlash we have seen as opposed to other countries who don't stick their noses in the rest of the world's business.
I don't think he's anti-military, he was in the military. And I certainly don't think he'd be weak on national security. If anything his positions on foreign policy would lead him to be staunchly defensive.

Jimmy Carter was in the military too once upon a time.

My point was pretty obvious.

Yeah, it was obvious you were just trying to compare Ron Paul with Jimmy Carter because you don't happen to agree with his ideas on foreign policy. Why don't you tell me what you don't agree with specifically? Because comparing him to another past president who also had military service is useless, seeing as most of our past presidents have some sort of military experience. It doesn't dictate what their policy is.
If you want me to think you're informed when you call him "whacko," you're going to have to come with more than that.
