Topic: Paul closes in on Gingrich!!!!! | |
---|---|
Ron Paul won't live for ever, nor will you or I, but if elected, and even if not, his message, like that of our founding fathers, will. Each Presidency has been a continuation of the last, and NOT for the better! It is time for change, REAL change, and RP has consistency that has been ignored for 30 years, but is now what is becoming the view of more and more people! We are tired of the war machine, wall street and the bankers view of what is best for us! They haven't a clue how the other 99% suffer, nor do they care! RP is the 1st step to restoring our republic! It won't happen overnight, but it HAS to happen! As far as the young...... we are sooooooooooo in debt to the central banking cartel that we are spending their future! Of course they want change, and they KNOW RP can begin to make that happen. His policies HAVE NEVER changed, he can't be bought, and 30 years of consistency PROVES that! Also....war is NOT policy....it's a death sentence for EVERY empire that has ever accepted it trying to nation build! The latest example we can ALL remember..... the USSR.... in the same region of the world! Of course no one lives forever ![]() ![]() Youth voted change the last time, they were wrong...They lack experience and, thanks in part to today mentality, they are not ready to take care of business...By that I mean THEIR business.... ![]() War??? A necessary evil...it is how we fight that matters...it is the principal it is based upon that matters.... We cannot afford to be idealistic, only realistic.... In King Barry's case..... Faux News and the MSM (with the help of wall street) sold him to an uninformed throng of young voters. It sure wasn't his record of accomplishments that got him (or Bush) elected! Those times have changed! The youth of today is awake to the issues. Many are still in the learning process, but they are eager to know the reasons for their plight, so they research, and accept the rationalities of RP. No more worries there than from the xanax generation that supported Bush/Cheney! ![]() War has it's place.....DEFENSE.....which RP wants to strengthen, NOT cut! Premption is BAD policy! That's what we pay the CIA, FBI and DHS spies for..... to ACTUALLY do their job! If they don't, and the MSM doesn't get back to ACTUALLY and FACTUALLY reporting REAL news, then like Rupert Murdoch and FAUX, they need to be replaced, or reinvented! Name dropping and critiquing news sources won't help you cause with me....The youth of today is no more or no less "awake" than the youth of yesterday...They understand the issues, they want them fixed, problem is they don't know how to get the job done...i.e. Obama... Yes they are learning and they need to continue to do so...they are not ready to take over....Xanax generation is nothing more than an exaggerated "buzz" phrase....No, not strengthen defense...Paul wants to pull troops from EVERYWHERE and place them here because he has an isolationist mentality.... And as far as the CIA and FBI, if Paul has his way they won't exist... Also, do you really believe you are the only person capable of deciphering real news from faux news, notice I DID NOT capitalize the word faux... I give the youth today more credit. Four years is a lifetime in this ecoonomy! He doesn't want to destroy the FBI or the CIA.... just make them actually do their job. As for foreign bases... they are in countries who are supposed to be our allies! Why do we need them? The money bringing the troops home would put in to local economies would be a GREAT help at home! Buzz phrase or not.... it's true! Read the Pharma reports! I do not perceive myself to be the only one who can critique the value of news, I didn't imply I was to my knowledge. I always capitalize "Faux" (check my posts) because they are a proven culprit of fake or unnews, and criminal misdeeds. |

He's 76, flies his own plane, hits the campaign trail harder than those younger, ans still the sharpest tack in the box. No worries about this old war horse! He has no vices to cause him ill..... and he is a Dr ![]() Yes, perhaps he should stick to gynecology, more realistic..... He is also a noted economist! |

Another similarity between RR and RP in this years election bid....if history repeats itself maybe RP will make it see below copied from Wikipedia on RWR
"Originally a member of the Democratic Party, his positions began shifting rightward in the late 1950s, and he switched to the Republican Party in 1962. After delivering a rousing speech in support of Barry Goldwater's presidential candidacy in 1964, he was persuaded to seek the California governorship, winning two years later and again in 1970. He was defeated in his run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1968 as well as 1976, but won both the nomination and election in 1980, defeating incumbent Jimmy Carter." Except for RP could state Another similarity between RR and RP in this years election bid....if history repeats itself maybe RP will make it see below copied from Wikipedia on RWR "A member of the Libertarian Party, his position began shifted to a runin the rightward Republican Party in 2011. He was defeated in his run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1988 as well as 2008, but won both the nomination and election in 2012, defeating incumbent Barrack Obama." |

Paul, if elected, would be 77 or 78 going in..that's 7 to 8 years difference. |

RR still had a successful Presidency by all accounts of Presidential Histories and still stands as one of the most popular Presidential offices in History despite Alzheimer's which is treatable more so than then. RP seems to have a clear agile mind to me. |

RP seems to have a clear agile mind to me. Why not just accept that I feel Paul is too old for the job?...What does Reagan have to do with Paul?...Alzheimer's is manageable, there is no cure, and it is progressive ....Management of the disease varies from person to person, with some responding to treatment and others not...Back to Paul....If he did win the nomination and I liked his running mate, it could influence my feelings...but I don't see him winning the nomination so, for me, it's a mute point... |

No, I am not making a blanket statement...I was responding to someone else about a comment made to me....I think Ron Paul is too old for the job, alzheimer's has nothing to do with my opinion and neither does Reagan.. |

RP challenges Status Quo to Bike Race in Houston Heat!! Submitted by Jefferson on Sat, 08/20/2011 Ron Paul 2012 Anyone who's ever experienced "Houston, Texas heat" knows that it aint pretty. The air is so hot and sticky, you could cut it with a knife. When his "age" was mentioned recently in NH, he responded with a 20 mile bike race challenge, in 100 degree heat!! GO RON PAUL!! http://youtu.be/rBft0EgbZTQ Side note: In some countries like China and India (who happen to be kicking our tails financially, and educationally) age is revered, not mocked |

Visit RP daily. He gets the most veteran donations for a reason. And has a near perfect voting record of any of those wanna be candidates. People judge Ron Paul so much because they are only informed through the controlled media and what its told viewers. Look elsewhere for the reality about the man.

I've looked at the man since 1988 when he ran as an independent...Is media source the only argument you can come up with when someone does not agree with you? Do you really think RP daily is going to talk about both sides of the coin? |

You and I may not agree on Paul, but we certainly agree on opinions and the fact that everyone is not only entitled to them, they have them....In all honesty, I wish I could feel confident about Paul...Right now, for me, all the GOP candidates are a big disappointment... |

I am not against everything Paul advocates, I am not for everything he advocates...I am leery (that's putting it mildly) about the support he gets from the younger voters, we have been down that road with Obama...One thing to consider is the time element needed to achieve his goals...Also, foreign policy and economic policy are linked...National security is now a much more involved and complicated issue thanks to terrorist mentality.....Paul's age is a huge consideration for me...He is a great messenger, but I do not want to see him elected....I whole heartedly believe we need a two term President this time, four years is not enough time to right the wrongs and get American back on track....Paul is too old for the job that HE is advocating.... Ron is approximately the age Reagan was when he was first elected. And RP is far healthier and acute than the vast majority of people his age. RP still goes hiking and biking long distance! ![]() |

RP still goes hiking and biking long distance! ![]() If you read back, you'll see that Reagan was already covered...So was his alzheimer's.....Someone is going to have to come up with a better argument than Ronnie...He was 69 when he was elected, almost 70...Paul is 76 now, if elected he would be 78 during his first year in office...Do you know how much difference a decade makes in someone that age?...Also, as I have stated, I want to see a two term president in 2012...We need time and continuity in Washington...That means I am think about Paul in his second term and pushing 90.... |
