It would be nice to get the buzz out. I know the mainstream media will not put enough focus on his candidacy. Anyone here freaking out screaming libertarian murder should know that Ron Paul is actually representing what the Republican party originally stood for. He is Republican minus corporate guidance. If you could escape labels, you'd find that you probably have some things in common. I find myself on the left side of the spectrum, but I do value things like the right to bear arms. Think beyond the dichotomy.

Mr. Paul's voting record shows a stellar example of a man who takes the oath of public office seriously. "To uphold and defend the Constitution..." requires action that career politicians don't like to make and yet Mr. Paul's career doesn't seem to be hampered by these appropriate actions. For further information about what Mr. Paul is trying to accomplish take a look at this site.<a class="user" href="http://libertyamendment.org">http://libertyamendment.org</a>

Obviously working in the factory was better living conditions than working in the farm from 9 years old or being hungry. For some reason they continued to go back without anyone forceing them to do so. They choose it because it is better then the other options.Are you basing your whole philosophy on fear that we would have children working in factories again? I don't think employees will have much use for 9 year old children in todays production nor do I think they would employe children as they would become ostrasized by the society if they did so today!

Amoirae: why do you keep posting this? Do you not understand that it's a joke? Surely even your tiny intellect is enough to help you realize that "kitten huffing", etc., isn't serious? It's not even a funny joke.

To really understand Ron Paul, take the time to read his speech, "A Republic, If You Can Keep It." Print it out and read it. It is one of the most enlightening, informative speeches I've ever read.<a class="user" href="http://www.house.gov/paul/congrec/congrec2000/cr020200.htm">http://www.house.gov/paul/congrec/congrec2000/cr020200.htm</a>

Ron Paul is conservative in his stance on abortion and "family values". The difference between him and other republicans is that he does not seek to enforce laws regarding these on a federal level, since, constitutionally, it is a matter of the state. So, while I do not agree with him on "family values", I may vote for him because he rigourously upholds the constitution like no other candidate. He is for free market economy. The federal reserve creates new paper whenever the government needs cash flow. The value of this paper is only worth as much as we and those in power give it. Lower taxes with lower spending is what he proposes. He consistently votes against centralization of power, which is the number one issue on a global scale right now, because once everything is owned by the One World Government, our parks will be used as collateral to pay debt, and then we will have no natural places for a haven. I am an earth loving mother goddess woman, but I think some environmentalists forget that the One World Government is the biggest threat to Earth. I would also like to note that Ron Paul wants to legalize hemp, which would save trees and eliminate our dependancy on foreign oil.He is so pro-life, that he is against war. This angers both liberals and conservatives, because it forces both sides to see their contradictions.
