Re: Ron Paul – Racist claims backfire, polling up forces GOP critics to face decisions…
Mininum wage arguement is weak as well, even if the wages go down the value of the dollar would go up under paul. The dollar has lost 96% of ifs value since the fed took over, so the 20 bucks i make now is basically .80 cents im value. Gas prices are predicated in dollar value more then anything else. So even if ur wages go down, the prices of everything would go down as well. So in actuality the standard of living would go up if the dollar value goes up. Its pretty simple math, people need to go into more depth when discussing pauls policies, they dont use facts or figures to back up their arguements, just prceptions.

As for being a racist, whats more racist? Telling some bad racist jokes in a newsletter or bombing the shit out of countries full of brown people for nothing, waging war against a religion and a specific demographic of people, thats racist of epic proportions.

It seems like a tough decision. But at the same time, Obama is doing a hell of a job protecting government jobs. Voting for Paul though is like voting for corporate downsizing of epic proportions.

Ron Paul will let businesses pay whatever minimum wage they want and not require even large companies to invest in health insurance for their employees. When the employee can't pay for health care, Ron Paul would let the uninsured die.

When a stay at home mother who is home and her husband dies because he has a heart attack and doesn't have health insurance and she wants to feed her family, Ron Paul says get a job and go to work. She has gets a job for $3.50 an hour because Ron Paul eliminated the minimum wage. She has to pay a babysitter and can not pay for food. Ron Paul say no to Food Stamps. Man Up, woman and starve because that is what Ron Paul is giving America. No Thanks Ron Paul. You and your Ron Paul Koolaid Drinking Fanatics want to eliminate the safety net but you will attempt to make America into a third world nation.

All your talk about Ron Paul saving America in nonsense. Ron Paul wants to make the rich richer and the poor absolutely destitute. America will not elect Ron Paul. His extreme views are liberty for the elite and Corporations which he votes to eliminate taxes and deregulates but But Ron Paul will grind the faces of the poor with his Jack Boots.
Just say no to Ron Paul.

Re: Ron Paul – Racist claims backfire, polling up forces GOP critics to face decisions…
I feel bad for Ron Paul. He is looking very haggard & extremely worn down of late. The campaigning is taking a toll. All the hard work campaigning & his own party won't even support him, total disrespect! Did anyone watch cnn tonight when Wolf was interviewing Michele Bachman & Mrs. Bachman said something like (multiple times at least 5) that Ron Paul will not be the republican nominee. The sheer very strong dislike from multiple republican candidates is astonishing to me.

Both parties want him out of the race!
 Quoting: eagleman


Mrs. Bachman and the other republicans are showing their true colors-none of them want change at all. They are all in love with their cush positions as elected and appointed officials. It's high time that "we" the people show these asshats who's in charge.

Only Republicans would would vote
for the end the minimum wage, end unemployment

Those people who support those things are
Democrats and they will come out in droves to
oppose Ron Paul.

Ron Paul's victory as the
Republican candidate will effectively end

of Republicans and their war against the poor
full force. There will be voting drives that
will get brown voters to the polls as they will
see that Ron Paul will marginalize the poor
and give the keys to the city to Corporations

30 years.

America needs someone willing to

America needs to end the citizenship rights of Corporations.

Please note the statements in bold above...could you please post links to support these.

Have you ever considered the system is what is keeping the poor down? You actually think by giving hand outs help? Look at the housing projects in any city...what do you see?

If these social programs helped so much, why haven't we defeated poverty? All these programs do is create a base of dependent voters.

There's a lil ole saying that sums it up, "Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day....Teach a man to fish, he'll always have food".

Where's the pride in receiving housing, food and other basic needs from the government vs working for your own...another issue with hand outs, the loss of pride and self-respect.

It's been well over 40 years, two generations, of these programs becoming what they truly are....the social seizure of America.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7798658




Allow me to provide an example which corroborates what you said.

For nearly 10 years I worked for a local community college with their Alternative Program. Our students were between 14 and 18, and had either dropped out of school or had been invited to leave for one reason or another. We also tutored students from Christian Schools and Homeschoolers who wanted to continue on to College. Regardless, these students had all made the decision to earn their diploma or their GED Certificate.

When the Program began, it was free. many students began only to quit, wasting both the teachers' time and taxpayer dollars. The Program's "Success Rate" was disappointing, if not dismal.

Then they started charging $40/term (it raised to $45 while I was there). They had a "scholarship" procedure for truly destitute students which forgave part or all of the fee, which is only fair so as not to exclude anyone who truly wanted to attend, but they had to PROVE it.

You can guess what happened. Once they had some "skin in the game" the students began attending much more regularly, and worked harder so that they could complete their courses before they'd have to pay for another term.

Our "success rate" went up, our student turn-over increased so that we could serve more students during each school year, we were able to transition more students into the community college, and we became one of the only, if not THE only, Programs on campus which paid for itself (thus allowing additional precious taxpayer dollars to go toward other Programs to help THEM out) in other words it created a positive ripple effect. We were even able to open the Program at another off-campus location in order to serve the students in that area so that they wouldn't have to travel so far to campus.

And all it took was $45 a term. But it was the PRINCIPLE that they were spending some of their OWN money, so they were buying into their own success. When you just hand everything out for free, no one will value it.

Exactly, except that that has another negative consequence, because not any program is free, there's someone who is paying for it, and while some dont value what they're given for nothing in return, others get frustrated by having the government wasting their money.

A clear recipe for civil war, which may be the ultimate finality, to bring a totalitarian police state as a solution.

That is baloney. Adults are waiting in line for minimum wage jobs these days. They take whatever crumbs they can get from the rich Republicans like Paul's plate. The problem is not the poor. The problem is the greedy rich that Ron Paul gives tax breaks to and the huge Corporations Ron Paul deregulates and gives tax breaks to. Ron Paul is a Corporatist and noting less.

Re: Ron Paul – Racist claims backfire, polling up forces GOP critics to face decisions…
Paul is a set up. People are awakening so the globalists are ready to crash the financial system (end the fed) and weaken the state (states rights) to try to hold onto power.

You need a nationalized fed and strong state if you want to go from the awakening that is full steam now to fighting the international oligarchs.

RP also says Muslims did 9/11 when he knows very well that they did not and that 80% of the public is awake to that now. RP is just a ringer for the truthers who are now a majority.

There are deep deceptions here too. Look at the NDAA. If you read a few sections before the famous 1031/1032 you will see they are in the chapter titled maritime regulations. The constitution explicitly authorizes the federal government to use maritime law, which is where humans are treated as corporate persons rather than human persons with inalienable rights. So, if you like the declaration of independence saying all humans are. Related equally and you know what the constitution really says, you can't possibly also like the constitution. RP knows all about this stuff and can sound nice ("return to constitution") while his deceiver buddies know and trust that he recognizes the debt slavery that it authorizes.

All of that jells with his advocacy of higher interest rates, usury, which the Messiah forbade. People are not misinterpreting the satanic hand signs that he makes: he is indeed among the liars and deceivers, just more clever about it than many.

And Ron is by NO means "against Public Education". He IS, however, against FEDERAL funding (and thus control) of Education. That is a STATE issue, what THEY will teach in THEIR schools which THEY pay for. He stands for STATES' RIGHTS, i.e., if the PEOPLE of the STATE vote something in or out, the FEDS have NO BUSINESS galloping in and telling the States that they can't do something, or that they MUST do something which they have no desire to do.

There is NOTHING in the Constitution which directs the FEDERAL Government to control Education.

You really need to read up a little more on RP instead of listening to ignorant blowhards and then repeating what they say. Ron Paul is not against public education - just against the federal departments which are not authorized by the constitution, thus leaving the decision-making power in the state/local government's hands.

On education, for instance, RP stated, "“First, the Constitution does not authorize the Department of Education, and the founders never envisioned the federal government dictating those education policies. Second, it is a huge bureaucracy that squanders our money. We send billions of dollars to Washington and get back less than we sent. The money would be much better off left in states and local communities rather than being squandered in Washington."

Here you get to watch him say what he believes about race and discrimination.

You get to read what he believes directly from quotes in his books and you get to see his actual words and votes from the congressional record.

Here you’ll get to know the Ron Paul that his supporters know and that even former aides know.

Even one former aide that still disagrees with him on foreign policy says with conviction on television that during all the time he knew Ron Paul he knew he wasn’t ‘t a racist or a bigot.

His supporters admire him for the many things and for consistently speaking out against injustice. Among them,

He speaks out against racial and ethnic discrimination during debates.

He speaks out against racial and ethnic discrimination during interviews.

He speaks out against racial and ethnic discrimination in the congressional record.

He votes for legislation honoring and advancing African Americans and their interests.

He writes against racial and ethnic discrimination in his books all the way back to 1987.

A minimum wage is not a give away. Ron Paul would eliminate the minimum wage and make it impossible for the working poor and destitute to survive. Ron Paul is alos opposed to Public Education. In nations where there is no public education, children play soccer or do graffiti all day. Ron Paul would crush the poor.

You need to evolve....who pays minimum wage anyhow? Everywhere I look starting wages are above the current MW? You're living in the past my friend....free enterprise takes care on it's own. Just like all the other BS programs and laws...get out of the past and embrace the/your future.

As far as "Public Education" goes, please....since the 60's, when it was instituted, there has been a steady decline in quality.
I remember seeing a exam online from, I believe 1898, it was the final exam for the 8th grade. Most College Student today could not pass it...I didn't & I'm a Business Grad., which I might add, I did on my own.

As for your last statement....you're truly naive. So, all kids were doing prior to the 60's were playing soccer or doing graffiti....effin moron!

Man/Woman UP....Pussy!

It's the same argument these morons use that state rights would bring back slavery. Societies evolve dipshit, if you give them the time of course. If you get scared and regulate everything then you stifle progress as current situation shows.

I agree, you write as a whining parasite who uses emotion and distortion to make your point.

Ron Paul will not end medicare, medicaid and "social security" for those already invested in those programs. He himself has made this clear.

The only way to pay for these programs and make sure that those people already dependent get their low quality government assistance is to end the warfare/welfare state as we know it. Otherwise the system will collapse and no one will get anything. This should be clear to even the dimmest socialist.

Unemployment insurance won't stop immediately if at all. It is a state matter anyway.

What will probably happen is that people like you will gravitate to the socialist worker's paradise states and the rest of us will opt for free states.

Sending jobs over seas is the exact opposite of Ron Paul's ideas.

You actually think you can call Ron Paul a globalist, elitist,multi-national corporatist
racist compared to obamaromneygingrich?




Ron Paul wants to privatize health care and if you can't afford it, you are out in the cold. Medicare for those invested but nobody else gets any? How does that really amount to something good for those who can't afford health care?

Ron Paul has voted deregulation for Corporations at every step along the way. Sending jobs is exactly what this has done. Ron Paul is lap dog for the rich and elite. He has millions he made from selling racist newsletter so he doesn't have to use medicaid. He has been a politician for 30 years and voted for corporations and against poor people at every opportunity. Ron Paul will fill the wheel barrows of the rich with gold and they will not have to pay a minimum wage, retirement or health benefits to whoever it is that they would employ. Ron Paul is an elitist. His followers who are not millionaires are fools to think he means them when he talks out of side of his mouth that he is for liberty then votes every chance he can to benefit the Multinational corporations.

Ron Paul will let businesses pay whatever minimum wage they want and not require even large companies to invest in health insurance for their employees. When the employee can't pay for health care, Ron Paul would let the uninsured die.

When a stay at home mother who is home and her husband dies because he has a heart attack and doesn't have health insurance and she wants to feed her family, Ron Paul says get a job and go to work. She has gets a job for $3.50 an hour because Ron Paul eliminated the minimum wage. She has to pay a babysitter and can not pay for food. Ron Paul say no to Food Stamps. Man Up, woman and starve because that is what Ron Paul is giving America. No Thanks Ron Paul. You and your Ron Paul Koolaid Drinking Fanatics want to eliminate the safety net but you will attempt to make America into a third world nation.

All your talk about Ron Paul saving America in nonsense. Ron Paul wants to make the rich richer and the poor absolutely destitute. America will not elect Ron Paul. His extreme views are liberty for the elite and Corporations which he votes to eliminate taxes and deregulates but But Ron Paul will grind the faces of the poor with his Jack Boots.
Just say no to Ron Paul.

I will be SO DISAPPOINTED with the American people if

once again...they choose their version of the " lesser of the evils"

refusing to support this rare statesman of integrity, RON PAUL......and instead

choose one of the FASCIST- CORPORATOCRACY lapdogs...

( i.e. Obama/Biden/Clinton/Romney/Gingrich/Bachmann/Santorum ).


If this happens AGAIN, I will no longer feel sorry for people in this country.

Instead , my new attitude will be that people get the government

and oppression they deserve!

A question for the socialist scumbags, a corporation you can break easily by stopping purchasing from them, how do you break a government that takes away your tax straight from the pay check?

What can turn more evil, a corporation or government? you must understand that both are equally greedy for power and control, but one of them can be brought down easier than the other. The only way corporations can have power is if government eliminates competition.

SO much for the evil corporation power. Ask mcdonalds in Bolivia how powerful they are.

Re: Ron Paul – Racist claims backfire, polling up forces GOP critics to face decisions…
I feel bad for Ron Paul. He is looking very haggard & extremely worn down of late. The campaigning is taking a toll. All the hard work campaigning & his own party won't even support him, total disrespect! Did anyone watch cnn tonight when Wolf was interviewing Michele Bachman & Mrs. Bachman said something like (multiple times at least 5) that Ron Paul will not be the republican nominee. The sheer very strong dislike from multiple republican candidates is astonishing to me.

Both parties want him out of the race!
 Quoting: eagleman



Which tells me that he IS the ONLY candidate for the People!!

What cracks me up is that when a "mainstream" candidate makes a bunch of promises and then fails to deliver, the apologists always say "Well, there's no way that he could have delivered on that one since he has to go through Congress." But yet when Ron says something which they don't like, they respond as if he'd be up there all by himself just signing away on all sorts of crazy shit. "Oh if he's elected he'll murder all the poor people and he'll knock down the Military until there are only three or four Military people defending our entire country and everyone is going to run out and become heroin addicts, etc."

Baloney!!!!

What Ron is saying that intelligent people should be able to make their own decisions about how they want to live, and then accept the CONSEQUENCES of their actions, whether good OR bad. And as far as his suggestions to eliminate several "alphabet" agencies, just think about this. How much of your State and Local taxes go to "support education"? I'd guess over 50 per cent, and that would probably be low. Why do we need a good proportion of our FEDERAL taxes to support Education too? If we are paying so much money for "Education", why are College teachers tearing their hair out because their students can't do basic math or put together a decent sentence? Why are teachers "teaching to the test" in order to get in on Federal money?

And as far as the "wonderful pollution eliminating" EPA is concerned, it is strictly a REGULATORY agency, which means its' job is to make things as difficult as they possibly can for a prospective business to start up and successfully continue to prosper. Their MAIN function is to rake in money for the Government and to fund their own job security. I worked in my state's Environmental Agency for four years, and the EPA attitude was that as long as you paid your "fee" you could put tons and tons and TONS of pollutants into the air and water. They didn't do a damned thing as far as actually ELIMINATING pollution or polluting businesses. Just like Obama's "Crap and Trade" Bill that he tried to get passed, it would not have eliminated any pollution, just spread it around while generating a bunch of new money for the Government and Al Gore.

This is the pattern of ALL of the "alphabet agencies". their FIRST priority is to ensure their own survival and funding. If we could eliminate even 1/4 of them, in my opinion there would suddenly be MORE than enough money to run the entire country and even have some left over. Then we could get to work eliminating even MORE of them, and plow the savings back into our OWN country and our OWN needs.

So true. Dr. Ron Paul often treated his patients for free or reduced cost to avoid having to take advantage of the welfare system...does that sound like a scum-bag? Only a fool could fail to comprehend what Ron Paul is advocating. He is so much more than a republican, he is a Constitutionalist!!! He has an impecible track record in politics, even if some don't fully agree with his views...but the VERY IMPORTANT thing to understand, is that as a constitutionalist who believes in preserving and protecting the rights of ALL Americans, he does not expect you to agree with all of his views, but he does expect each of us to respect the rights of one another...at least, that's the image he gives off. He wants to return power to the states, so that "We the People" can have more say in how our communities and lives are run. Think of the possibilities! With so many states, there could be something for everyone, not this "One Size Fits All" Federal Nanny-state crap running our lives, telling us what we cant eat, drink, smoke, watch, learn, read, create, etc, etc....Now is that what all you Ron Paul haters want? You want endless war and bloodshed for the sake of 0.01% of the wealthiest scumbags?!?! So they can go on destroying the world we live in, and creating enemies of foriegn countries for no good reason? Ever heard of the golden rule? "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you", not "do unto others before they do unto you"!
The fact that so many sheeple are falling for the MSM fairytale is evidence of the disgraceful dumbing down of the American ppl! These sheeple can't see the light when it's staring them straight in the face!
WAKE UP! This is our Nation's last dying hope!
Vote RON PAUL 2012, whether he runs under reps or libertarians! Write him in if he's not on the ballots! Don't let tptb rob us of this chance to restore sanity and honour to this country!

Re: Ron Paul – Racist claims backfire, polling up forces GOP critics to face decisions…
The fact that Ron Paul made millions of dollars
selling racist rants actually sells with
Republicans who are rich White People's Party
but America is not rich and White. America
is a nation of immigrants and many of whom are
some shade of brown. Ron Paul's Anti-Brown People
Economic Policies will give that idiot Warmonger
Obama a landslide victory.

Only Republicans would would vote
for the end the minimum wage, end unemployment
insurance, end Civil Rights, food stamps,
Social Security and Medicaid for seniors.
Those people who support those things are
Democrats and they will come out in droves to
oppose Ron Paul.

Ron Paul's victory as the
Republican candidate will effectively end
that party as relevant. America will see the greed
of Republicans and their war against the poor
full force. There will be voting drives that
will get brown voters to the polls as they will
see that Ron Paul will marginalize the poor
and give the keys to the city to Corporations
and banks he has voted for deregulating for at least
30 years.

America needs someone willing to
end political contributions to politicians.
America needs to end the citizenship rights of Corporations.
Ron Paul's Corporatism and Ra i9st Economic
policies will be the undoing of the Republican Party.
By all means, vote for Ron Paul. America's poor
will know who Ron Paul really is by the time
the election comes.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1419030


Working for Ron Paul's no minimum wage is by itself the deal
killer to the vast majority of Americans whose wages would drop with the end of the minimum wage.

Ending Medicaid and Social Security will get all the seniors who have invested their whole lives into this system. You want to call people who have worked their whole life parasites? America's elderly will know you Ron Paul Republicans will make it so the elderly are marginalized.

Food Stamps really pisses of Ron Paul supporters. Food Stamps are a part of the safety net that prevents starvation
from the honest and theft from the desperate. End food stamps and there will be riots in the streets. But you Ron Paul folks think rounding up poor people is great. When all the poor are rounded up, I hope no one you love is among them.

Unemployment Insurance is part of the safety net but it also keeps corporations and businesses from reducing wages too far. With no Unemployment Insurance, businesses can pay employees whatever they feel like. You think that is good if you are a Republican but you don't get it...You reduce the wages of employees and you further erode your domestic market for selling goods and services. Ron Paul loves sending jobs overseas and he will do so until American workers make the same as their counterparts in China or India. Ron Paul is an elitist, globalist Libertarian. America will wise up to his Anti-American and Elitist policies soon enough. Ron Paul is racist multi-national Corporatist. They pretty up eugenics and call it Libertarian
No thanks Republicans who call hard working Americans parasites.
