    2 of them have been Congressmen and one a state Governor. They have records. Better records than Paul's, "never done nothing record."

    Or didn't you realize that? When my nuts are numb its due to recent pleasurable activity. You'll have to bring me on board about numb brains, I'm not familiar with the affliction.

    Oh I don't know... Maybe the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center? Their goal was the same as 9/11.


    Or didn't your Savior Ron Paul tell you about that? It actually DID happen, you know, despite the fact that Savior Ron doesn't talk about it. :shh:

    LOL. I'd rather have someone fight bad laws than vote for them, and then try to act like they are conservative later. Debt ceilings are bad, bailouts are bad, cheating on your wife then on your second wife then getting married a THIRD time is bad, no child left behind is bad. Getting paid millions by lobbyists is bad. You have no argument.

    Obviously I knew about '93. Fact is it was nothing compared to 9/11

    I can understand neocons not supporting Ron Paul's classic conservative views, but these guys on this thread just have nothing except hes a nutter for following the constitution.

    The Ron Paul DINGBATS simply cannot understand that Ron Paul is no more of a constitutionalist than any of the other candidates - including Obama.

    Pick & choose, pick & choose...

    Nope. I'd rather not vote at all just like last time.

    Hell man, you realize that if the only "true conservatives" as you call them were in the GOP you'd have at best about 15% of the voting populace in your party right?

    Go back to being 3rd party and see where that gets you. Quit trying to turn my viable political party into a 3rd party wasteland.

    You have a party, it's called the Libertarian Party. You obviously don't agree with mainstream Republicans on much of anything so you don't belong in the Party of Reagan.

    I'm a mainstream Republican, you are a libertarian wierdo who needs to find his own niche in society and quit trying to steal mine.

    Remember, this whole Tea Party/Republican thing is a relationship of convenience. No one gave you any right to "take over" from mainstream Republicans.

    Try to keep you "mind" organized. I made no comment about any 93. And WHERE did I say they had spotless records? I said they had records, political records. You don't know a single fact about their personal lives. just as you AND I know nothing FOR FACT about Paul's personal life.

    You demand that I keep giving Paul another chance after 30 years of failure. But Gingrich has publicly admitted his mistakes and changed his church and promised he would not err again. Your attitude is Paul must have unlimited chances even after 30 years of failure, but Gingrich must be burned at the stake for a non-political transgression. No more chances for you Gingrich!

    I was on your street the other day,,,,,,,ONE WAY!

    Ron Paul's "classic conservatism" is a DEAD ideology and the only people who follow it are 80 yr old men and the foolish youth they indoctrinate.

    I was raised by my grandparents as a moderate Reagan republican, not some foaming at the mouth Goldwater mega conservative killjoy no one in America wants.

    Like it or not, America changed irrevocably since Goldwater. There will be no revival of the "paleoconservatism".. it's "neocon" or nothing. The 60's and 70's murdered the Ron Paul style conservatism and buried it in the ground and Reagan was the closest you're going to get.

    The reason we haven't had any 'classic conservatives" in office for 40 years is becuase they are no longer viable candidates in modern American society.

    Ron Paul has ENORMOUS support from 18-30. Which means his way is the future of the country. As long as we don't destroy ourselves by then I'll just sit back and wait for the young to replace the old :)

    Boo hoo, you don't have ownership rights over a political party. People will quit trying to take over your party when your party quits violating the rights of others with its aggressive and violent policies.

    Actually, Ron Paul rarely talks about "pork," except in the sense that practically everything the federal government does is pork. In fact, I would say 100% of everything the federal government does is pork. Worse, it's theft.

    No, he doesn't.

    The youth crowd voted for Obama last time and they'll vote for whoever will give them legalized drugs.

    Occupy Wall Street is the youth of America, not Ron Paul's Hitlerjugend

    Why not abolish the states, since any issue could be disputed in federal court? As a matter of fact, let's just have a one-world elected dictator decide each and every issue for 7 billion people. I'm sure that would be "orderly."

    Good. Drug prohibition is evil, violent, and should be abolished.

    Both are. Young people are divided in terms of economic issues--many of them confused by such things as environmentalism and the fear of "big corporations." But virtually all the politically active ones are anti-war, pro-privacy, and pro-personal liberty. In other words, the crapsack views of the statist right are dying out. How sad.

    LMAO

    You honestly think that disorganized anarchy is preferable to ordered liberty within the confines of a prosperous nation?

    I hate anarchists as much as I do leftists, because they tend to be one and the same.

    The state provides neither liberty or order. The state is violence and violence creates chaos. Therefore, the state creates chaos.

    The two major parties do everything they can to marginalize and eliminate third party participation. The whining and whinging when their (the major parties) own game is played against them is laughably pathetic.
