"it's refreshing as a personality trait. It is not refreshing when you see what those beliefs and political mores are." -Guy on the left with the beard that disagrees with the Constitution.

TheAmazingAtheist has the best explication I found so far in the video "Crazy vs. Evil" why I can't vote for either Obama and Ron Paul at this time. Both are terrible horrible choices.

I am Black and i am getting sick of people calling Ron Paul a racist Ron Paul wants to end the war on drug which is the single handily the most biased and racist laws since Jim Crow. If Ron Paul is racist why does he have so many black supporters who are more loyal then many of his white supporters??

You know what pisses me off?

Digging up the past, the decades old past.

Look back at yourself 10 years ago. Are you even REMOTELY the same person you were back then? Hell no.

What does it even matter if he wrote those letters? It doesn't! He is the best political option there is without a shadow of a doubt, and through and through has been honest and consistent in everything that matters politically. Look at his voting record. That's the only past that matters.

These guys got nothing on Ron Paul. The entire conversation lead to ZERO arguments made that refutes anything that has to do with Ron Paul.

They should have literally just said "Yeah but we're democrats and therefor can't accept Ron Paul's refreshing ideas".

Seriously..

Not voting for Ron Paul Because you think "he is a Racist" is like not voting for Obama because he is Muslim.

[TimEngle]

Cenk Uygur has a terrible short-term memory.
Just the other day he saw a speech back in the late 80s
that showed Ron Paul is not a racist.

I never thought I would agree with Michael Shure, but he hit it right on the head with this one

[DeathtoRaiden]

Just because your department of education sucks doesn't mean you don't need one, you just need new people running it.

Michael Shure - the newsletters were brought up in 2008. And what you "believe" doesn't matter. Ron Paul is the most anti-racist, minority friendly politician I've ever seen. Period.

Ron Paul told a story on cspan yesterday, when he was a young resident working in a hospital in Texas.He walked into an operating room right after an abortion was performed.And the fetus was still alive in a bucket and crying after the procedure.How can you expect any sane person to not be against abortion after seeing that.

@stereoarchitect can i have a link to that video.Or what should i type something into the search bar

[plowerrr]

@orion00 You're misunderstanding my argument completely. It is entirely necessary and completely acceptable to use man-made design to infer design in nature. The reason you have trouble with it is because you automatically assume that if we can't see something, it doesn't exist. But we can't see gravity or magnetic forces, yet we all know they exist because we observe the consequences of them. If know that it is impossible for complex entities to create themselves, then we must ask...

Life, liberty, property. Thats Ron Paul in 3 words.
You can understand ALL his views, inclduing foreign policy, economic policy, environmental policy, welfare policy through those 3 words.
He's not 'sometimes right', he's 'always consistent'.

[ThePhaedrus]

@IyatehLolita Wow! You're pretty good at making wide sweeping generalizations. I have many disagreements with Paul, but I'm not sure explaining them to you has any purpose. You have made it abundantly clear how open you are to opposing ideas. Good luck with that!

[KingChronoss]

The main reason to support Ron Paul: he really is the only honest, uncorrupted candidate who has always had the same message. Even if you disagree with what he says, he's working only in the interests of the People, which is all that matters in the end.
You can say Obama offered similar promises of change, but if you really look at it, he's been backed by Goldman Sachs, and the major banks and corporations from the beginning, receiving millions from them and other special interest groups.

I don't understand why politicians changing their minds is a bad thing. I think they should always be changing their minds as they learn new things and become smarter and more educated on certain topics.

[ErectileFunk]

Either Michael Shure or Jayar always save the day when nobody else hits the nail on the head.

[Inkognitohaloramics]

I disagree with Ron Paul on at least 50% of the issues. But looking at the other options, people whom I disagree with whole heartedly, I know which one I`m going to support.

Anyone complaining about TYT's negative comments on Ron Paul is truly ignorant. TYT has defended him over and over again for what he does right, and negated him for what he has done wrong. They have been truly, pardon the usage "fair and balanced." Don't start talking about TYT being bias against Ron Paul from this one video. Ignorance...
