Interesting domestic ideas but loses me on foreign policy.

Ron Paul has faults, but his message doesn't. Follow the Constitution. Plus being one of the only candidates running for the president who is not a member of the "CFR" is extremely comforting

wow... opinion is changing on this board too. I don't know if he has all the right answers. I just think he is willing to ask the right questions.

I agree with some, but not enough to vote for him.

If it's a truly silver coin minted by Congress, yes.

It could have a picture of Carrottop on it and I wouldn't care: Truly silver, minted by congress = step in the right direction.

NO to Ron Paul Dweeb-Doofus

Yeah, I like a lot of his ideas, like most Libertarian ideals. But guess what folks, this is the REAL world, full of REAL jackarses who actually want to do you and yours harm. And will do you harm as soon as the opportunity arises. Can you believe it? And all you want to do is be left alone. Why, why would anybody want to do that, you ask? I mean, who would want to take away your, the USA's, economic power? Russia, China, the EU? (more like every other nation in this world, and, for that matter, 40%+ of our own populous, aka, Dems). No, never! Can't we all just get along?

Sorry, I digress.... anyhow Ron Paul is a non-electable dweeb-doofus (kind of like that high school presidential candidate, who promises you all this cool stuff that ain't really in his power to deliver) who would never be able to do anything he's promising 'cause Congress wouldn't let him. Hmmm, now some may say that's a pretty cool idea, Washington not being able to (fill in your issue). But really, we've got major issues at hand that need to be handled by a realist in the White House. Someone like, say, Frudy Rombee... you know, like anyone who could really beat Billary. They ain't perfect candidates, but they're definitely better than dweeb-doofus. Besides, I actually really do care for my Jewish allies... silly White, Christian, Straight, Conservative, Republican Male that I am. Imagine that? Probably '08 votin' Frickin' Giuliani.

If he started out as an Independent...maybe. Would still like to see him switch.
