i never heard that about Edison or Einstein... is that true or more lib BS?

of this I am truly sorry yo hear, but nonetheless I also know the power if a vendetta in the media and the ease with which they can destroy someone

so my doubt remains - tho I now consider myself aware of the true power of the white media

Shouldn't the same be for Ron Paul in this case? No one knows who wrote those articles. Heck...even CNN said this in the article I posted above

english, please.. i have no idea what that means...

I agree there. I tend to take the media (any source) with a grain of salt anyway.

It seems they get a scent of something and pounce....but that is my opinion

platitude is simply a 10 lb word for "an empty remark"

correct

The information is out there. Do your own homework.

Why Ron Paul’s Racist Newsletters Matter

Ron Paul is back in the hunt for the Presidency. Many see him as an appealing candidate, one who opposes the wars, wants drugs legalized and supports fiscal responsibility. What they don’t know, is his long history of racism and connection to white supremacists. He has dodged questions on his connections to white supremacists and the newsletters, full of abhorrent racism that he put out in his name and he made millions from, spreading racism.

There has been controversy over Ron Paul’s ties to racism for some time now. Many people have pointed to Ron Paul’s Newsletters as proof of his racism. Paul has previously admitted to writing the newsletters and defended the statements in 1996, then blamed them on an unnamed ghostwriter in 2001 and then denied any knowledge of them in 2008. He has given no explanation, for how the racism entered his newsletter and has dodged questions about them without casting blame on anyone. If we are to take Paul at his word, he is guilty of at least promoting racism on a large scale. Paul earned almost a million dollars a year from the racist, conspiracy theorist newsletters. Here are some excerpts that I’ve found.

ron paul needlin

In this story Ron Paul writes about “needlin” and blames packs of young black girls for spreading AIDS to white women. I could find no evidence of this “epidemic” and the article seems to have no point other than to make white people scared of Black people.

Ron Paul MLK

In this piece he criticizes Martin Luther King as a pro-communist philanderer and says the MLK holiday is “Hate Whitey Day.” This is in great contrast to 2008 when he told Wolf Blitzer that Martin Luther King was one of his heroes. When activists suggested naming a city after Martin Luther King Paul suggested other names such as “Welfaria,” “Zooville,” “Rapetown,” “Dirtburg,” and “Lazyopolis” He would continue:

In another piece he blamed Black people for the riots that happened in Chicago in 1992 after the Bulls won the NBA Championship

basket ball riots

Paul here is using false information to attack African Americans. The Washington Post reported that 1000 people were arrested but did not indicate their race. The riot, like most sports riots was multi-racial, including Blacks, white and Latinos, yet Paul used the incident to demonize African Americans. The Washington Post also reported that two officers suffered minor gunshot wounds and that 95 were injured in total, but the way Paul phrased it, it would seem most of the 95 officers injured were shot.

ron paul blast em

In this article Paul uses the “carjacking” epidemic to put fear into white people. He advises them to carry guns and shoot “carjackers” illegally and then dispose of their weapons. He also refers Black people as “animals” and directly refers to his home town of Lake Jackson, Texas.

The newsletters also contained the quotes:

opinion polls consistently show only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions

if you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be,

This is only the first skirmish in the race war of the 1990s

Please note the articles from the newsletters did not carry over to here so you will have to copy and paste the link

To confirm what this blogger wrote I tried to find proof that he wrote this.

This is what is going on. These are excerpt from his newsletter that he claims he didn't write but there is no lawsuit by him on whoever did put this in his newsletter so it doesn't look good on him.

He lets whoever is publishing this and worse under his name.

Shame on him.

typical... those who know the least, talks the most...

Ron Paul IS most definately a racist and HAS supported those ideals. Not to mention he is a complete loon. I wish he would just go away. I would even be ok with a Democrat taking his COngressional Seat. He's an idiot and a believer of conspiracy theroies and hater of our military.

Actually he was. It was even discussed in one of his autobiographies by one of his best friends. See info below. You can google plenty of other sites, and ignore the hateful ones, but it has been verified.

FBI surveillance showed that King had dozens of extramarital affairs. Although many of the pertinent records are sealed, several agents who watched observed him engage in many questionable acts including buying prostitutes with SCLC money. Ralph Abernathy, who King called "the best friend I have in the world," substantiated many of these charges in his autobiography, And the Walls Came Tumbling Down.

clinton too, i think... was it ever proven? lol lots of congressmen seem to always get busted for it too... like the anti gay proponent that got busted in the bathroom, looking for a gay.... the wonder of it all.... the new york governor with the madame scandal... i think he works for cnn now

i never heard that about Edison or Einstein... is that true or more lib BS?

Oh you just don't like him because he's not the cookie cutter run of mill slick rick Romney type republican LOL

Shouldn't the same be for Ron Paul in this case? No one knows who wrote those articles. Heck...even CNN said this in the article I posted above

really know nothing about the man - so am t-totally objective, and I don't see why the media could not defame him also as they have done it to others- I just do not trust them and see it as a plausible possibility

if someone wants talk bad about texas or it's people, then they to at the very least know what they are talking about... he knows nothing about texas, spent a few days here once, and then wants to make rude comments about the people here... i just fail to see what this has to do with anyone else, to be honest with you...
