Ron Paul supporters are NOT crazy...why the hate?
It's confusing to me a little bit.
The anti Ron Paul posts that hit EVERY Ron Paul thread.
They aren't just "I don't agree with him on this or that" posts, but they denigrate his supporters as stupid nut-cases.

What most of his supporters want is what most of us here at GLP, I thought, want.

Freedom from the government being in every nook and cranny of our lives.

Will he win? I seriously doubt it.
If he did, would he be a "perfect" president? Probably not.

But if anything, what he's done is to make many of us take a 2nd look at what this country is supposed to stand for, and what we should EXPECT to have living as a citizen here... individual liberty. Freedom from government control.

He reminded us of what we once were, and what we should be now, as a country.

So, that's where much of the support comes from for him. Not for him the man necessarily, although I think he is a good man, but for his stance.

People who support Ron Paul aren't crazy, (most, anyway) but really are supporting freedom and a return to, yes, The Constitution that this country was founded on.

I personally think we are all screwed.
That it's too late, this country is too far gone, we let it get too far away from us.
That elections are a joke now, and We, The People, have no real say.

And that's what really pisses me off about the bashers of Ron Paul supporters.....you are dissing people who are trying to make a difference and actually fighting to have a say in the process that effects all of us.

Come on, people.
It's NOT about Ron Paul.

It's about the anti-R.Paulism here.

Or, the anti-supporters of him.

I want to know WHY?

Re: Ron Paul supporters are NOT crazy...why the hate?
My personal theory is that too many people are too lazy to do the research themselves. They hear the first blurb and accept it. And Ron Paul stands for too many things that TPTB don't really want out there, so of course he's smeared and ridiculed at every opportunity.

I think that even the people that don't see the need to actually follow the constitution should at least give the man a little respect for sticking by his position. He's not the typical "vote the way the wind blows" politician. He actually has beliefs and is willing to stand behind them. A true rarity in the slippery world he works in.

With freedom comes personal responsibility and I think that scares the hell out of some people. People have become accustomed to having the government take care of them. That's just my personal opinion. I could be wrong. 1dunno1

You are right.Only 2 viable parties, dem,rep,not working so well.

But it's kind of where we're at right now.

Re: Ron Paul supporters are NOT crazy...why the hate?
- its simply part of politics.

- either the people posting the threads you're describing are on the payroll, so entrenched in their belief of the other party/candidate or they're only watching/reading one news source leaving them without critical thinking.

- i wouldn't worry about it, at all.

- if Ron Paul doesn't secure the candacy (drawing 5000+ crowds to his talks & speeches it's hard to see him lose) he still will have a tremendous impact on those he appeals to.

- i'm not sure of previous US elections or caucus'. But no matter where i see Ron Paul threads/videos there is a global demographic that give their support to him and his message. That itself i find amazing.

You got it right here, so how is a voter trying to make a difference? By repeating a mistake over and over expecting a different result. Not crazy, just slow.

No hate here, just an understanding that voting is an illusion. The winner of the next election is already selected by TPTB. Your vote is meaningless.

Anyone that speaks Truth like Ron Paul always stirs up hateful responses...it just comes from fear. Most people like the way the world is even though it's so full of suffering..just because it's familiar. When someone speaks the truth that threatens that comfort zone...

Re: Ron Paul supporters are NOT crazy...why the hate?
The 2-party system has evolved into one party. The Progressive
Party. All the rhetoric, disagreements and fighting is only for show. Look at the voting records and policies towards progressive ideals, they are introduced and voted YEA by both sides.
Yes, we are in trouble. Our Constitution is just about gone.
Our government has created a nanny state were 50% of our population is getting government checks.
My belief is that Ron Paul supporters are the awakened ones
who see past the lies and distortion of truth by our MSM.
Ron Paul supporters are filled with the hope and believe we need to return America to its founding principles for our next generation.

I don't think you understand what psychopath means. Either that or you are just ignorant or twisted by state propaganda.


Are you saying that someone who believes in non aggression and voluntary exchange is a psychopath? Because that is what a libertarian is.


Governments are psychopathic because everything they do is based on force.


I don't know any libertarians or voluntaryists who are mass murderers.
