Reality Check - Mystery Writer of Ron Paul's 'Racist' Newsletters Uncovered http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=HP-mYq4DaJI#! Doesn't change facts...the newsletters were written under Paul's supervision, his company, his name...Paul profited from these newsletters to the tune of a cool million bucks a year for several years......The fact that he did nothing at the time spells political disaster in the respect that by doing nothing, he endorsed and/or agreed with the racist language exampled in his newsletters...His newsletter, his company, his responsibility...and pleading ignorance isn't going to win him any favors either.... What I got out of it......is everyone is accused of racism for one thing or another.....in any decision you make their is a chance of being accused of racism by someone somewhere.....every person.... Two wrongs do not make a right....and everyone is not running for President...constantly.... But every single candidate including the incumbent has been accused of racism......go back to the 50's racism was more widely accepted and not as frowned upon....every ten years it became more frowned upon and less socially acceptable.....not because someone was say extremely prejudiced and racist 50-70 years ago for example (not stating this remains the case), but how long do we hold hold this against each one of the candidates that time may have changed their perceptions. I prefer to look at the voting histories, which help me to align what concepts I concur with or do not. Yes true, every single candidate has been accused of racism...I will even go so far as to say that door swings both ways.....However, Paul's case goes beyond accusations of racism...His racists slurs were different in many respects....His was not one statement, but several...His was landed against not only blacks, but Jews....Paul profited greatly from his POLITICAL newsletter....The newsletter was circulated....It bore his name....In the late 80's, when first questioned about it he pleaded ignorance, but never retracted, never dealt with it. If he had, he would not be dealing with it to the degree he is now....and NO, that newsletter would have been offensive to me and many others 5 years ago, 10 years ago, 15 years ago, 20 years ago, even 50 or 70 years ago.....Hell why not go back to the Civil War.....I prefer to look at EVERYTHING.....And you are absolutely right when you say time "may" have changed their perceptions....May have, may not be good enough.....Maybe time has NOT changed their perceptions....50/50?...Is that like the toss of a coin? I believe Ron Paul....I don't think he wrote or was aware of what was writtn until the aftermath. I know you do and actually I do too, but the problem is his refusal to take responsibility for what was written under his name and for which he was was handsomely paid...I bet he cashed the checks....There is no excuse for him not knowing....If he can't run a newsletter responsibly, how am I or anyone else supposed to believe he can run a nation responsibly.... The president doesn't "run the nation". In America we only use "executive" in the sense of "a person who executes(carries out) laws written by congress". The president's tasks are clearly outlined and very limited (see Article II of the Constitution). You had better take a closer look at this administration and read the fine print while your at it.... |

Any Obama supporter jumping on this topic of the week needs to remember one name, Wright! |

Any Obama supporter jumping on this topic of the week needs to remember one name, Wright! exactly, be consistent I would hope most of those jumping on Ron PAul for those newsletters are the same ones who crucified OBama for his pastors choice of words and those who are excusing Ron Paul , were likewise excusing OBama,,,, |

It turns out that James B. Powell is a doctor/financier who went to medical school with Ron Paul at Duke University. He is slightly younger than Paul, and graduated med school in 1964. Paul graduated in 1961. Powell has been in executive positions with a number of highly prosperous lab companies as well as financial institutions. Having been CEO, President, and even an owner of these businesses, Powell has likely been a long-time financial backer of Ron Paul.
http://people.forbes.com/profile/james-b-powell/53743 Because of his own prominent positions, this could be why the name has been withheld by both Paul and Rockwell, especially since it is likely that Powell had ties to both of them for decades previous to the publication of the newsletters. It still raises questions about the level of Paul's own knowledge of the articles. |

I considered the Wright "scandal" lame and poorly reasoned from the start. There were/are so many more substantive things to talk about. The Wright thing was just a spectacle media whores exploited for ratings.

I don't see any blatant intention towards racism. I am looking at other aspects like how they voted and if the way they voted fits the aspects I perceive the country needs. |

Go figure. Pape was an advisor for both Obama and Paul during the 2008 campaign.
So does that mean Obama had two Wrights?

This happened on TAM airlines.
A 50-something year old white woman arrived at her seat and saw that the passenger next to her was a black man. Visibly furious, she called the air hostess. "What's the problem, ma?" the hostess asked her "Can't you see?" the lady said - "I was given a seat next to a black man. I can't seat here next to him. You have to change my seat" - "Please, calm down, ma" - said the hostess "Unfortunately, all the seats are occupied, but I'm still going to check if we have any." The hostess left and returned some minutes later. "Madam, as I told you, there isn't any empty seat in this class- economy class. But I spoke to the captain and he confirmed that there isn't any empty seats in the economy class. We only have seats in the first class." And before the woman said anything, the hostess continued "Look, it is unusual for our company to allow a passenger from the economy class change to the first class. However, given the circumstances, the commandant thinks that it would be a scandal to make a passenger travel sat next to an unpleasant person." And turning to the black man, the hostess said: "Which means, Sir, if you would be so nice to pack your handbag, we have reserved you a seat in the first class..." And all the passengers nearby, who were shocked to see the scene started applauding, some standing on their feet." SHARE IF YOU ARE AGAINST RACISM!

I just found it humorous that she got her just deserts. |

I just found it humorous that she got her just deserts. I know and appreciate that....but racist jokes and stories, even when they favor a minority, can be tiring, offensive, and even painful to those very minorities the story is favoring.....It's because they just want it all to go away......Be done with....Only then will things get better.....

Yes, but you cannot help what people do in real life....and as long as people continue to act that way the story will be related....I would have actually expected the airline make her take a different flight....since its her choice not to sit next anyone she doesn't wish to.... |

Well, the woman in the "story" is obviously an idiot...If sitting next to a person of color is something she is incapable of doing, it is up to her to make suitable arrangements prior to booking and boarding...Perhaps she should hire a driver the next time she travels, just avoid "public" altogether....
