    That's what this is.A Choreographed effort by Alex Jones to
    interview McKinney and then have Paul seem interested,as a
    sort of future poker chips for when the black vote is needed.
    Jones Interviewing McKinney who went to Libya on some sort
    of special Visa the last half year.Giving her a Venue as long as she
    says nutty stuff that Jones Freaks find attractive.Meaning ANY World
    Order conspiracy.

    I don't know how some of you can sleep at night being so dishonest. Aren't you ashamed?

    The truth is that of the extremely slim pickings presented to the American people in 2008, Ron Paul decided that the Constitution Party's Chuck Baldwin was the least bad of the bunch and endorsed him.

    The reason for the extremely slim pickings, of course, was because of people like the original poster of this thread, who sweated and toiled to tear down the only honest and pro-freedom candidate in the running, giving us wannabe despot John McCain. And now you design to repeat your sabotage and give us wannabe despot Mitt Romney. Again, how do you sleep at night?

    Wait a minute, I thought Ron was supposed to be racist against blacks. Yet now he's supporting a black woman who's racist against whites? Good grief, at least try to keep your smear machine consistent.

    I never said Paul or his son Rand were racist.They both still support
    the notion of Private Property and owners choosing who they will allow
    in the business' or lunch counters.
    McKinney is an insurance policy,is all.She's a Conspiracy activist.
    Like Bob Barr,another black Libertarian from Georgia.

    Okay, so Ron Paul isn't racist. So, therefore, he doesn't need McKinney for an "insurance policy," or Barr (Barr's black? He's lighter than some of my Italian relatives). So that must be why he didn't endorse either of them!

    These people are desperate to destroy Paul personally because he's a harder target philosophically, not to mention he's tracking right along Romney in national polling against Obama. They've run out substantive arguments so they resort to screaming racist, the ULTIMATE irony coming from so-called "conservatives" who complained incessantly, and rightly, about the left's equally incessant and vapid accusations of racism.

    These are the same people who cling religiously to the drug war and were the instigators of the birther movement, yet they're calling Ron Paul a racist?

    LOL!!!

    I don't think he'll get the nomination, and the attacks will continue, but if nothing else, he's gotten people thinking about things that don't normally get discussed.

    But yeah, it is rather amusing and disturbing at the same time....

    I rarely meet a " conservative" who is actually Conservative. It is why I talk (*)(*)(*)(*) to them. They are an embarrassment and are actual liberals but they are just to ignorant to realize it.

    Generally agree.

    That SuperPAC ad really threw them a curveball. What sane person is going to believe Ron Paul is a racist after seeing that?

    Cynthia McKinney is as whacked out a radical leftist as has ever been elected. There is zero excuse for anyone endorsing someone that is that bat-(*)(*)(*)(*) crazy. Paul gets -5 points for this stupidity.

    As far as Paul being a racist, my opinion is that he isn't. My guess is that he took a laissez faire approach to his newsletter and was fine with some stuff being printed that he didn't necessarily agree with. However I also believe he was completely aware of what was going on in his newsletter and now finds it politically embarrassing. I think Paul's full of crap when he says he was going to the loo when those newsletters came out. There's no possible way he wasn't reading his own newsletters, just as Obama is lying about not knowing the racism going on in a freakin' BLT church.
