    In response to a question about why he voted for No Child Left Behind and 5 Debt Ceiling Increases, Rick Santorum says, "Vote for Ron Paul, that's what you should do."

    He's right though. Libertarians come to him wondering why his record isn't consistent with a libertarian like Ron Paul. It's like, gee, because you're a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing retard.

    that's his biggest mistake.

    his second one is thinking he has a chance of winning anything.

    So your point being is that your opinion is superior and we should obviously concede to your "massive" intelligence? Sorry I don't like your opinion nor do I like your trolling.

    the point is that ron paul hasn't won any states, not a single one

    the bottom line is that he's not going to be nominated, no matter what sort of crooked games you all play

    Does it truly matter if he wins the nomination or not? He has already achieved his primary goal of spreading his message and making waves in the Political Atmosphere. Also to consider the nomination process that has been going on for decades to be crooked is just a form ignorance.

    the nomination process isn't crooked, ron paul's failed strategies are what's crooked

    ron paul has been sleazy the whole time i've watched his career, more than 30 years

    I've been voting for him for over 30 years. He's not sleazy to people who believe in upholding the Constitution.

    Alright continue on with your opinion as to why he is "crooked" and "sleazy"... did he not bother to open a door for you at one point or did he simply not shake your hand?

    of course, lots of hayseeds were suckered into his 'outreach to rednecks' strategy

    ron paul's nut case interpretations of the constitution are a joke, he's in the pockets of goldbugs and libertarian extremists


    he lies and cheats, in the 1970's and 80's he published investment newsletters that were beyond sleazy and crooked

    in 1988 ron paul used scare tactics to help sell his investment publications and solicit political donations

    he said, "I anticipate, and many Austrian free market economists anticipate, that the recession that's coming will not be a recession at all but it will a depression and it will probably be bigger than the one we had in the 1930s"

    of course it didn't happen

    Quit pretending you understand economics. In the economics thread your ideas were crushed.

    Quit pretending you understand the Constitution .. like or dislike Paul .. he does not trash the Constitution nearly as much as Santorum.

    Correction. It hasn't happened - yet. Paul is right; the monetary system of the USA today is flawed by design and must inevitably fail.

    you're simply not telling the truth

    ron paul said, "the constitution says that only gold and silver can be legal tender"

    it doesn't say that



    he said the depression was going to happen in the presidential term after reagan's

    it didn't happen, ron paul was completely wrong, it was propaganda

    Paul is a proponent of alternate currency, he may have been referring to State coined gold and silver, which the constitution does say is the only legal tender the States can make.




    Just because he cannot predict the future with 100% accuracy does not mean that he is just propagandizing. I doubt that he was using "scare tactics", he probably believed it, and it certainly could have happened, and still can.
