HOPE for America: ROn Paul!
Every single issue he has substantial responses as oppossed to the bunch of "boys" and "clowns" claiming to know what's going on when the recession already started and they still have no plans to end the Iraq war. Wake up America.... this is not about "leaving Iraq with honor" like the acid McCain said... We are BANKRUPT! The barrel of gas is $100. WHY?
Because of the dollar devaluation because of the debt with have with China and the further hole we are digging by borrowing so more money to pay for the "flakey" war.
Please check out an economics book and see everything he says is right on.
Hillary, obama, huckberry, etc all of them have no clue what to do with the recession...They focus on change? Change ..yes increased taxes to pay for what they are promising is coming our way if Ron Paul doesn't win!
Vote Ron Paul!- EditorResponse, on 01/19/2008, -19/+4Ron Paul on Meet The Press December 23, 2007

Ron Paul did NOT know how many troops we have abroad, all he says is to bring them home. Ron Paul does not know the mission of the military and he has been in office now for twenty years.
Russert asks Ron Paul two questions regarding statements that he made while stumping in his presidential campaign. 1st) who in Israel is telling the United States to attack Iran? 2nd) Ron Paul stated that Israel is telling the United States to bomb Iran, is this true? Ron Paul had no reply. Ron Paul has NO response after months of stating these facts, which can clearly be seen on YouTube in hundreds of videos. Ron Paul has based a great deal of campaign rhetoric on military protection that the United States offers to Israel, South Korea, Japan and ALL of NATO, more than 26 countries yet on DECEMBER 23, 2007 MONTHS INTO THE CAMPAIGN Ron Paul has NO answers as to WHY he said what he said on the campaign trail regarding Israel.
The OLD PUSSY takes marching orders from Osama Bin Laden! When it was made clear that the United States of America had a base Saudi Arabia, a country of an ally, and was threatened by a man living in a cave, Osama Bin Laden, Ron Paul said that we should never have had bases where Osama Bin Laden does not want them to be! It is a provacation. Ron Paul is afraid of a man that lives in a cave yet wants to be the President of the most powerful country in the world, the United States of America.
Ron Paul also wants to keep us out of Lebanon which is the front for Islamofascism. The war against Islamic terrorism is being run by Iran in Lebanon...and the scared, feeble old man wants us to back off an cede Lebanon to Iran.

Ron Paul begins this second part of the interview proving WHAT A LIBERAL ASS HAT HE IS. Ron Paul is NO BETTER than Barak Obama or Dennis Kucinich two other MAJOR ASS HAT LIBERALS.
Speaking of Ron Paul, Eric Dondero a LIBERTARIAN Republican consultant to Ron Paul said "When 9/11 happened, he just completely changed. One of the first things he said was not how awful the tragedy was...it was, 'Now were gonna get big government.'" CHOKE...Ron Paul was destroyed!
Thnen Tim Russert pointed out that Ron Paul went and put into bills before Congress, EARMARKS that Ron Paul knew full well would pass because others in the House would pass the bills...WHAT AN ASS! Ron Paul then said that because he voted against them bills after placing the earmarks in that what he did was OK! THE BILLS PASSED and earmarks for his own congressional district amounting to BILLIONS IN WELFARE for his congressional district were approved!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-iJP4BAAQ4
Ron Paul is for term limits but yet stayed for 20 years! Listen to his cracking old voice in his response. What makes Ron Paul think that he is better than anyone else and should stay in office for as long as he has. He has no response to Tim Russert again.
Then it was proved that Ron Paul was FOR EVERY ILLEGAL MEXICAN that could cross the border to get here in the 1980's and now Ron Paul is for a fence because it is a valuable Republican position!! Ron Paul is a NO GOOD FLIPPER on this position because it is valuable at this time to be pro fence as a Republican!
Then drugs...WHAT A CRACKPOT! TOTALLY DEBUNKED! Nobody will vote for Paul, watch the response he gives Russert. His followers should be ashamed.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCSY438wpCk
Ahahahaha....Ron Paul is shown in documents by Tim Russert to have put down Ronnie Regan and then uses Ron Regan's images in his politics. Ron Paul is a traitor to the Republican party.
Bwahahahaha....RON PAUL CACKLED LIKE A HEN when he was asked about the comment he made about Huckabee regarding fascism. I, I, I but but but....CACKLE AND CLUCK LIKE A HEN! Ahahahaha...completely unwound IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA! Hahahahaha!!!
This is the best interview of Ron Paul. Hands down.- deadlyfluvirus, on 01/21/2008, -0/+4Are you some sort of psychopath or do you work in one of the CIA buildings? I suppose they're both the same.
- phoobaar, on 01/21/2008, -0/+5ER pastes the same reply to every Ron Paul article he sees. The fact that there are people like ER who spend hours upon hours at Digg every day, attacking Ron Paul and burying his articles, is proof positive that Paul is deeply, deeply feared. People don't expend so much energy trying to shoot down non-contenders. This is a very good sign! Thanks ER! :-)

- EditorResponse, on 01/19/2008, -8/+5ON THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALLIES AND TRADING PARTNERS
First let me be the bearer of bad news and state that Ron Paul is mistaken and he will be unable to bring home many troops from overseas. The force size and weaponry that are overseas are there for a reason. The force sizes have been arrived at by the best minds in both foreign policy and military leadership over more than half a century. The forces are a critical balance of power against possible aggressors.
Second, speaking with regard to wars fought in Asia at or around the time of WWII, against Japan, between the Bataan death march in Burma and the Corregidor death march in the Philipines 25,000 Phillipino and 16,000 American soldiers perished. Japan had military losses of 2,100,000 and civilian losses of 500,000. In the Korean war 60,000 Korean civilians perished against China and North Korea and the Korean war has NOT ended yet to this day. A peace treaty has yet to be signed between the North and South Korea and North Korea only recently gave up on building a nuclear weapons after having tested one.
I do not have an exact breakdown for killed in action for the Pacific battles but the US lost more than 400,000 globally in WWII. Many of the locations where the United States of America fought are now allied nations. Note that they are not just trading partners they are ALLIES. For example, China is a trading partner but they are NOT an ALLY of the United States of America and there is a big difference. ALLIES paid in BLOOD and with their LIVES to make the relationship that now Ron Paul wants to destroy.
The allies of the United States of America are the front line against all sorts of aggressors globally. Ron Paul wants the United States of America to GIVE UP ITS ALLIES! Ron Paul wants the United States of America to ONLY have trading partners. Ron Paul's view of the world is that of an ultranationalist or isolationist and he is unrealistic about what it takes to remain at peace.
For example, China and Taiwan had a civil war more than 50 years ago and China lost. i.e. the people managing Taiwan broke away and are NOT communists they have a democracy that is supported by the United States of America. Since the cvil war Taiwan has grown into a major ally and trading partner of the United States of America. China wants Taiwan back in the fold now that China is a superpower. Taiwan refuses claiming that they are a sovereign nation. China is aiming thousands of missiles at Taiwan and plans to attack Taiwan if they pursue full membership in the United Nations or full sovereignty.
Taiwan is the SECOND greatest producer of RAM for nearly ALL computers globally. South Korea IS NUMBER ONE.

Taiwan is the second-largest memory chip supplier in the world, with production focused on DRAM and Flash.
With 20 percent of the market, Taiwan is now the world's second largest producer of memory chips, tailing South Korea, which supplies 45 percent of the global requirement. Three industry giants from across three continents hold sway over the rest of the market: Qimonda of Germany, formerly Infineon, which accounts for 15 percent of the overall supply; and Micron of the United States and Elpida of Japan, with 10 percent each.
Taiwan is poised to capture 25 percent market share by 2009, according to the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). The overall production value of Taiwan-made memory chips is forecast to grow from $6.76 billion in 2006 to $6.96 billion in 2007, according to ITRI.

As many as 60 Taiwan companies manufacture motherboards. Taiwan makers account for eight out of every 10 motherboards produced worldwide. A total of 108 million units were made in 2004. Output is forecast to reach 112 million units in 2005 and 115 million units in 2006.

Do you think that China will continue to trade with the United States in the capacity it is now trading with after taking over Taiwan? If you do not know what RAM or MOTHERBOARDS are let me state that you cannot manufacture a computer, iPod or many other devices without either. If China takes over Taiwan or North Korea takes over South Korea then they will control the global production of these components. Companies like Dell, HP, IBM, and Apple will virtually be out of business within a week and will remain so until we rebuild the lost infrastructure, which could take years. The U.S.A. will lose a major competitive advantage during that time as the U.S.A. may lose the ability to run businesses, the military, university research, etc.
With out a doubt the United States of America would have go to war to prevent either of the takeovers. Several hundreds of thousand and possibly more than a million Americans will die to regain the losses. China has already threatened to strike Los Angeles if the United States gets in its way with Taiwan. They have also recently threatened to dump bonds on the market to crash our economy if we put in place any trade sanctions on (1)their lead painted toys, (2)due to the trade deficit or (3)we force them to adjust their dollar against our to where it logically should be trading at (4:1 compared to 8:1 where it currently is).
China and North Korea remain HARDLINE communist countries. North Korea and the North Vietnamese were supported by China against the United States of America in the Korean and Vietnam wars. We are in a delicate balance at this time and Ron Paul is stating that he wants us to withdraw our support for allied countries.
IT WOULD TAKE THE _WORLD_ YEARS TO SET UP FACTORIES TO BUILD RAM AND MOTHERBOARDS IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES TO REPLACE TAIWAN AND SOUTH KOREA.
The United States of America and all the trade that goes on does so at the PROTECTION of the United States of America. What do you think the satellites, submarines, Navy, Army and Marine Corps do? Along with protecting the people of the United States of America these units protect the trade of the United States of America supply routes for goods including oil. You must understand how the United States got to where it is and who it has alliances with globally and how dangerous RON PAUL is to those alliances. If we pull back all of our support the entire country will be very vulnerable within months.
STOP THE RON PAUL PROPAGANDA! THINK!
ANOTHER WORD FOR MISTAKEN is LIAR!

- Kishoba, on 01/18/2008, -4/+26I've already set aside my $100. I wish I could donate more, but as a college student, I can only do so much. However, I know that it hasn't been the large contributions that have gotten Ron Paul to where he is now, but rather the steady out pour of small donations such as this from a large following that really makes the difference. Even if people only donate 10 dollars, the showing of the number of supporters and new supporters alike truly benefits this campaign. I am also in the process of looking into becoming a precinct leader, as I would do anything to help Dr. Paul and his efforts the way he has helped all of us.
- ShaperVision, on 01/18/2008, -4/+20This is essential. Ask yourself is your freedom worth one hundred dollars, ten dollars, more? Time to step up to the plate. The other campaigns are out of cash, with the exception of Romney, who is balancing his campaign finances with his own wallet. Your support can give Ron Paul the boost he needs to get his message to those who have not yet heard. Your jobs, the economy, your future taxation levels and the freedom of the country you live in are at stake. It is time to take action!

The media doesn't report fund raising anymore because there's no way to know what how many donations are being made to other candidates. Also, they have repeatedly said 'ron paul, who has been unable to turn his large bank account and devoted grassroots following into electoin victories...' Money bomb attention will no longer be effective in making people think of him as an electable candidate. Only volunteers on the ground explaining his positions to people and better performances in the upcoming debates can do that now.
Not that money won't help, but a steady flow would probably help more than a money bomb.- girlygirl1323, on 01/25/2008, -0/+0You are kinda "on the money" there with your comment....
What really is going to matter are the votes.. and in my eyes this revolution is just getting started. I'm so afraid that Ron Paul will not be there in the end to vote for come election day. So many of us are not registered Republican.. I'm personally registered ind. and by the time I heard of Dr. Paul's campaign and fell in love with him, it was too late to re-register as a Republican. I think that people that did make the deadline to change parties are not even being taken into account in the caucus here in Louisiana. I'm still not even sure how that went, I can't find coverage with a factual account of what is going on. I want to tell Dr. Paul that he has so much more support than he can even imagine.. myself and so many others are already spreading the word about his campaign. Even tonight I put a Ron Paul sign in my sister-in-laws yard.. and then told her that I did... and she asked me "What's he running for?"
It's so sad that there is a REAL candidate out there running for the Presidential office of this country and the media has blatantly omitted him from EVERYTHING. I've also heard that some channels are trying to plan a BostonTVParty / money bomb type thing for Feb 1, in which everyone cancels their cable service. You know, that's not such a bad idea. I get upset watching the news now. I just can't believe some of the crap that is being pulled over the eyes of the American people. It hurts my heart and I fear for tomorrow. I fear for the economy and well being of this country if some drastic measures aren't taken soon. I REALLY THINK that this country is DOOMED WITHOUT RON PAUL AS PRESIDENT. I hope that he hangs in there to the end.. even if that means running as an Independent candidate. I hope that he knows his message is getting to more people now.
I'm curious........ how do you write-in a candidate on an electronic ballot?

The World's Nuclear diplomat's thoughts on the final Republican Debate.
The Final Republican Debate ***Discuss***I reject the idea that after Regan's cold war any buildup making our military bigger makes us safer. Our countries are so powerful now that If we did anything to each other the entire World would pay for it. If anything I would assume we need more gun rights to protect ourselves. The founders never intended for there to be red tape around our right to bear arms. If our military strays too far from the power of each individual how are we going to outclass our own Military if exposed to a fascist dictator? Thinking that spending fake money we cant even pay back to expand will do quite the opposite for our security financially as well. I felt the way that CNN focused on John an Mitt the CFR dead horse traitors was very tragic but Ron Paul was still able to shine through with what little time he had. The only reason he was able to be in the debates at all was from overwhelming support from the common man and thats simply why he's our man. Because even when faced with the smallest opportunity to speak he comes out speaking on behalf of a free Nation of people rather than say Lockheed Martin. I wanted to hear more about his boarder policy but they totally avoided him. I think if we take away the incentive for illegals to abuse the system it would cure allot of this wall building mentality. I myself am little concerned about Russia adopting our recent bad habits in regard to pre-emptive strikes opening the door for a broad array of tactical nukes to combat "terrorists." Hearing that quote about Bush seeing into Putin's soul was very interesting to me. I really wonder what Paul would have said when the looking into his eyes as well. Seeing the huge soviet certain next to the US certain brought back that eerie vibe from the Regan administration that I'm sure we long to forget. I've seen Iron Mountain and understand the concept that military might can create security but in the end that notion is flawed when we come to realize how precarious it can become when taken to extremes. What I'm concerned about is the prospect that after a quote like that from Bush if there were a handshake behind the scene that would benefit military contractors at the dispense of our own people from both sides if we would even recognize the tragedy creeping upon us. Let us hope that it never comes to this between NATO and the SCO Nations through the saber rattling of something like Iran. Again I'd like to reiterate my disgust for such focus on Mcain and Romney when even the Russians are talking about our corrupt voting machines. How can we trust the television for results after the knowing that the Bush administration was not only inserted into the White house through the corrupted means of man as well as machine even loosing the popular vote with stations like FOX ready to jump all over the results as they cater to the appearance of who the mainstream front runners appear to be before and tell us the name of our president after the election? We have already seen foul play in this election and we are not able to go to them any longer to expose it. A few questions I propose to everyone are should we even have the primary elections and the electoral collage rather than the pure vote of the entire nation overall? How do we prevent voting machines that have proven to be fraudulent from going back into the electoral process and people from taking our ballots out of the vault to be manipulated elsewhere like we saw in New Hampshire already? Perhaps we should have a channel dedicated to letting all the candidates have a voice that focuses on equality and exactly equal amounts of time to speak rather than presenting only those who pass through the filter with focus on only those endorsed by the sponsors or owners of the network? How important is it that we have a singular method to elect our president rather than a hodge podge of methods that mash the results? I'm sure we would all agree after the undeclared Wars we have seen in the past this question has become a matter of life and death...I have my own ideas that could save the World that should seem obvious to us all. Whats worth more than silver, diamonds or gold? We all need it to survive and you get up in the middle of the night to drink it because our bodies tell us we need it. I like to say in regard to our looming energy and monetary crisis that there is an "ocean" of opportunity. Whenever I hear about Nuclear energy as the only viable option talking to an electrical engineer or political figure my eyes bulge with anxiety because I know that it's only a matter of time before that type of exploitation will lead to the downfall of not only mankind but most every walk of life on this planet.http://www.youtube.com/v/-X6aUyeJo24&rel=1&border= ...
