- inactive, on 01/11/2008, -3/+36I have meet the man various times and I have watched him interact personally with people of all races and backgrounds, giving serious consideration to their ideas and concerns. This whole attempt is an effort to destroy the only man who is worthy of being president in the race.
http://www.ronpaulforpresident2008.com/ - Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -7/+38Ron Paul is not a racist. Don't believe the smears coming from the status quo- they are scared RP is going to upset their organized crime syndicate!
- ronpaulftw, on 01/11/2008, -6/+29Go ron paul!
- Spectre74, on 01/11/2008, -4/+24Proof that (small-minded) racists, in fact, are allot of the ones who DON'T like RP.
- truthgonewild, on 01/11/2008, -2/+20I never had a doubt about my man Ron Paul. And I wouldn't doubt the people who wrote that ***** was the very enemy we are fighting. Why do I say this? Because Ron Paul has stuck by his beliefs and the establishment likes to think ahead. They've tried to bring this up before to hurt him in congress and it didn't work then.
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -2/+11of course you get dugg down because you are spreading lies.
- ConstitutionGal, on 01/11/2008, -1/+10Ron Paul doesn't support any 'rights' for the collective. He supports, as does the U.S. Constitution, the rights of the individual.
- inactive, on 01/12/2008, -3/+11herkheimers bury brigade got to this one... BURIED by Megaphone boyz.
- inactive, on 01/11/2008, -2/+10WOW ! great article.
- jeffiek, on 01/11/2008, -3/+10Didn't we deal with this crap months ago?
Any one that can't see that this is a political attack must have their head stuck up someplace where the sun don't shine.
On the plus side, it shows they're getting really scared. - FunkyDung, on 01/11/2008, -4/+10I don't believe RP is a racist, but I don't think he's handled this scandal well, either. Not knowing something was written in your name or who wrote it is a poor excuse.
- inactive, on 01/11/2008, -1/+7he just doesnt talk like that, hes a great person
- Humptydank, on 01/12/2008, -1/+6Uhmm, chaosium, not an organized attempt? Did you even get the BuryBeeper I sent you?
Call me on the Ron Paul Notline if there's a problem. - Hortnon, on 01/12/2008, -0/+5Really? Lacking the responsibility to read a document you pay for and has your name in the title, AND you sign for....that's a quality you want in a President?
- rilla825, on 01/13/2008, -0/+4The real problem, for those who currently try to smear him as a racist, is that if Ron Paul gets into office he will do much harm to the racial disharmony that has taken place in this country for far too long. Ron Paul would bring 'we the people" together as one race, that race will be called Americans. They are all shaking in their boots. What will they do when they can't pit one race against another with the unhanded tricks they have used for the past century. What will they do to distract the American people from the "men behind the curtain" when they lose their power to separate each race of people and place them in "groups' ie; African American, Hispanic, Native American, Asian, Arab etc... I look forward to the day when the world will finally be confronted full force with the Ron Paul way of looking at each person as an individual. We are each an individual, regardless of race, gender, sexual or religious preference. Ron Paul does so now, always has and will continue to do as President Ron Paul he is not a racist.
- Spectre74, on 01/11/2008, -0/+4Huh? Tell me how, I wasn't aware of this.
- Cr00kie, on 01/11/2008, -2/+6What is really so "ridiculous" about us? Is it because we really care? Or is because we are voting for the best candidate despite the ugly smear tactics against him?
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -1/+5wow u r dumb. NO dummy, by speaking the truth! You must be an Obama supporter. Obama is in bed with the CFR, or, Traitors.
- jmpeagle, on 01/11/2008, -3/+79th Amendment...there found where right to choose comes from
I am all for Ron Paul, but the Federal Government has the right to overrule states when it comes to matters of protecting individual liberty. - wasaka, on 01/12/2008, -0/+4It has been said the RP newsletter defended the Rodney King beating on grounds that King was part of a "criminal class of people." If the newsletter did say that, then clearly this was not the words (or thoughts) of Ron Paul. I've heard almost every interview I could get my hands on over that past six mouths and listened to every word that has come from Ron Paul mouth.... over and over again he has made the case for individual rights and doesn't look at people as members of a group. In his view, we are all individuals, end of story.
In the mind of Ron Paul a criminal is a criminal, and should be treat as such (this is how he views those who attacked us on 9/11 by the way). He does not see them, or Rodney King, or anyone else as a member of a "criminal group" which we should feel is some special or particular threat to our liberty. This idea that Ron Paul would paint Black people (or anyone else for that matter) as a "criminal class of people" or sub-class group is just false on it's face. That these statement appeared in his own newsletter doesn't make it any less false. Dr. Paul has stated these were not his words or thoughts and I believe him. - Hortnon, on 01/12/2008, -1/+4Agreed, Jesse. I'd be surprised if he's ever re-elected as a Congressman. It's easy for an opponent to grab this and run with it now that all the work has been done in uncovering them. Hell, I bet even more come out.
- chaosium, on 01/12/2008, -0/+3"As Minarchian said you're just part of the smear campaign and you're going to twist and lie all you want hiding behind your keyboard. Why don't you go educate yourself on the facts before you come here posting this garbage. Wake up."
This is great, every time we bring up stuff that Paul actually DID say on television it's denied. He could advocate a new holocaust and you people would say "OH BUT HE ONLY WANTED TO KILL THE 'INTERNATIONAL BANKERS', WHAT WOULD YOU PREFER JEWLIANI?" and shrug it off. - Jesse, on 01/12/2008, -2/+5What does have to do with the price of tea in China? He's not releasing them because they're black, but because he doesn't believe in policies of the drug war. It's like saying Bush passed a tax cut, and some rich black dude benefited from it, therefore Bush cares about black people. Nevermind his criminal negligence after Katrina.
I'm amazed at how Paul supporters can be, on the one hand, so anti-authoritarian, but on the other hand, defend a politician beyond any and all rebuke. There's no friggin' conspiracy here around these papers. He either wrote them and is a pretty deeply ingrained bigot, or he didn't and is a completely irresponsible idiot. Either way, he's finished in American politics. - Hortnon, on 01/12/2008, -1/+4Really? Saying, "I screwed up, and I need to fix this" is not taking responsibility? I'm sick of this argument, it's *****. It's like saying you shouldn't be able to declare bankruptcy, because that's not taking responsibility for poor spending habits. Except, it's much more ridiculous.
Science has a very clear definition for when life begins, and the Roe v Wade ruling took that into account. - trotskyist, on 01/11/2008, -5/+8It is just as concerning to me that he would so easily attach his name to something he's never read as it would be if he had written the article himself.
- chaosium, on 01/12/2008, -0/+3"Supporting a law as a collective nation(federal level) most certainly will not benefit an individual more than at a state level."
What's that you're whispering in my ear little birdie?
Oh yes, it's a grand sweeping statement that is absolutely and completely full of *****!
Protecting a freedom at the federal level will prevent the state from acting as if the freedom does not exist. - Arahail, on 01/11/2008, -1/+3I know what is disturbing is people who refuse to see the truth or have no sense of logic to derive their opinions. You can look in the mirror Jesse, if you want to know what is disturbing.
- ConstitutionGal, on 01/11/2008, -4/+6What you are failing to comphrehand is that it is MUCH easier for citizens to have an effect on their LOCAL and STATE laws than on 'laws' or 'rulings' that, Consitutionally, are out of the federal purviiew. Go read the U. S. Constitution and then come back here and tell us where you find a 'right to choose' in it. For that matter, I'm still waiting for someone to show me where the federal government has any authority over education, health care, housing, transportation, energy or an entire host of other issues. Have fun!
- Spectre74, on 01/11/2008, -1/+3Amazingly dugg up even though it kind of doesn't make sense...........pretty much all racists are small-minded.
- Jesse, on 01/11/2008, -3/+59/11 truther. And I don't think people are treating the racist articles "as a conspiracy" as there's no secret plot about them. They're there, in plain sight, with his name and personal references. 20 years of bigoted remarks doesn't get forgotten because a politician made a couple speeches to look tolerant. If you really believe that then you're a tool.
- chaosium, on 01/12/2008, -3/+5"You say "he stated" as if RON PAUL said this *****"
I'm not talking about the newsletter, retard.
I'm talking about his actual quotes in recent history. - marquis6, on 01/12/2008, -0/+2just ending the war on drugs would stop the conviction of and set free from prison 175,000. "African Americans" alone. How is this racism? Don't let "them" divide us over non issues,
people united can change the world. - czernel, on 01/12/2008, -2/+4http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Martin_Luther_Ki ...
http://www.freeatlast2008.com/ - Minarchian, on 01/12/2008, -0/+2Bunch of white supremists?
You are so out of touch it's not even funny any more.
Seriously...get yourself some help - Spectre74, on 01/13/2008, -0/+1Jesse, I just looked at your profile and you are a HUGE bigot......Talk about the pot calling the kettle ni***r geez.....
- Spectre74, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1Please input the stuff that defends the opposite of what you said earlier, then take out all of the stuff that makes what I said *****. I'm on a lunch break, please get back to work.
- Spectre74, on 01/13/2008, -0/+1YOU ARE PREJUDICE INCARNATE
- Spectre74, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1Fail.
- Jeremiah188, on 01/13/2008, -0/+1Just one question Stewart. Did you ever read any of the articles they took their quotes from to attack Dr. Paul? I have read one in full, the LA Riots, and several others in excerpt form. I can say without hesitation that these articles were ANTI-RACIST. Surprising no? As you pointed out in your excellent article, the collectivist mind-sphere is racist at its core. These articles were critiquing this collectivist racist mindset. In other words they were ANTI-RACIST, not simply NOT RACIST but ANTI-RACIST. They criticised affirmative action and welfare programmes and described their malign effects. If you were to go through the LA Riots article and exchange white for black you would quickly see clearly who the real racists are. Collectivism as an ideology segments society into discrete groups and gives to some of these groups certain privileges at the expense of the other groups. These privileges are called Civil Rights and this is why Dr. Paul opposes them. This division and segmentation of society in this way facilitates the control of the population by the ruling elites. It is against this insidious and deceptive ideology that the Ron Paul Newsletter was written. The articles were well written and articulate in their opposition to the forces of tyranny. These same forces are now using these articles by taking quotes out of context and labelling them racist when those writing the smears are in fact the true racists.
- shedmyskin, on 01/16/2008, -0/+1you're an idiot who doesn't understand the stance of Ron Paul on collective vs. individual rights....
- Spectre74, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1However, it's of little concern....
- wasaka, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1I know people (both black and white) who
harbor deep prejudices and preconceived ideas that you might
find offensive (being married to a Black woman, I have seen
and heard it all, believe me), but I have learned to be a libertarian
about such things... what does that mean??.... simple: it means
I no longer get easily offended... people say things and do things
that may be messed up... sure... but for my sake, I feel to be
intolerant of intolerance does the world little good. I find
it is far better to overlook minor faults (what is often mere
ignorance) so that I can continue to have a relationship
with a person, and in so doing I can influence their opinion
by sharing my life and showing them they are wrong or to
give them a different view point. My willingness to be a
friend does me no harm, and often it does them good.
I think my life is my best argument against racism, and I
think Ron Paul's life is his best argument against these
false accusations.
Ron Paul is my hero.
Malcolm X is my hero.
Say what you will about their past, I know I'm
a better man today because of their influence. - shedmyskin, on 01/16/2008, -0/+1ridiculous? That would be idiots like you who don't understand what they are talking about who are easily manipulated by the systems propaganda.....thats okay though takes all kinds of people to make the world go round I suppose.
- shedmyskin, on 01/16/2008, -0/+1you are dugg down because its bull *****....
- Spectre74, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1Who knows........
- kcmoman, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1How many politicians have people of all walks of life coming together for a common set of principals? It makes Dr. Rom Paul worth a good look for every political junkie and average person alike. Jefferson said every generation needs a revolution. May G_d Bless
- shedmyskin, on 01/16/2008, -0/+1lol are you one of those hippies that thinks their against the system but is getting all upset because the likes of Ron Paul are showing you just how much an automaton you are?
- shedmyskin, on 01/16/2008, -0/+1science also thought the world was flat once....
- tommy7154, on 01/12/2008, -2/+3As Minarchian said you're just part of the smear campaign and you're going to twist and lie all you want hiding behind your keyboard. Why don't you go educate yourself on the facts before you come here posting this garbage. Wake up.
- Spectre74, on 01/12/2008, -0/+1@Jesse
I don't care what his motives/past is/are, I'm worried about mine. There are more poor jailed blacks than rich. I never said he cared about black people. I don't care about the papers conspiracy. I don't care if he is the antii-christ. I don't care if he is a bigot. He's not finished. All I care about is that the laws get passed or stopped in America's favor. -
