Why the US Military Loves Ron Paul

[M4gikSt1ck]

This is a huge campaign coming up in 2008 and since the main stream isnt covering Ron Paul that means other who support him have to spread the Ron Paul love...

The main stream media types want you to think Ron Paul hasnt got a chance in this next election, why is it that he has won the first straw poll in South Carolina, all the online polls after each debate and now we find out that more Military personal has given to support Ron Paul then any other candidate on both sides of the isle...

Dont let the media try and decide who will be the next president of the USA, find out who you like, but find out who is out there who represents YOU.

Why the US Military Loves Ron Paul

The Numbers...

he's not spamming shit. He spoke his mind in my thread and he started his own thread dealing with how the military feels about Ron Paul, you know, which is pretty important.

Why the hostility?

Did you even read the article? I'm guessing not since you posted only minutes after him. He is entitled to his opinion just as much as you and everyone else is. Ease up would you.

I hit refresh and 2 threads started by the same person about the same person popped up. His posts sound cut and paste like a campaign rep would use. I dislike people who try to push their politics and views onto others and if posting multiple threads saying "make your own decision" but posting only one sided threads/links isn't trying to push their political views on others, I don't know what is.

friend,

This is the problem in my mind about America today. The polarization of our country into this two sided party shit is just killing this country. Politics are very important, they effect every aspect of our life from our taxes to our career choices.

If you don't like my posts, then you are not required to answer to them. If you have some points to make contrary to my posts then please I encourage you do to so.

But I will say please, if someone has a political view that isnt in line with yours just post why you dont agree with it then debate it like we should have been doing for the last 3 decades.

I think we can agree politicians are shit, I mean its a long standing joke how corrupt they are. Then how the fuck do they end up on office? If the people dont take it upon themselves to get involved in the very system that makes this country the greatest in the world then these "politicians" in office will reflect those who do take the time to get involved.

Stand up and speak up or sit down and STFU....I say that in a nice way or course....

In the end any politician, democrat or republican, is going to fuck us over since not a damn one of them got to where they are at without someone else's money. They're going to have to scratch someones back at some point.

I hate to say it - but really if your not in one of the two main parties, this country is too ignorant as a whole to punch the card.

Sure blow your vote on someone else - but as the last dozen elections have shown...you'll be wasting that ballot.

How many non Democrat/Republican runners have ever won again?

Ron Paul wont be running if he doesn't get the nomination.

Makes sense.

Unfortunately, history seems to show that it's only the popular guys get the ballot..

This coming from a guy that wants a political forum so you dont have to see these threads...seriously quit being a nazi. its ok though, i am sure you are going to edit this (I copied it so I can sig it )

As far as Ron Paul...he actually seems like a good candidate. At first I thought he was a nut job, but he is starting to come around . I dont fully agree with everything he stands for...but there will never be a perfect candidate. I am going to keep an eye on him and see what happens. I may have to go that direction.

30 plus years in Congress and doesnt accept PAC money.

How can you deny this record.

He has never voted to raise taxes.
He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
He has never taken a government-paid junket.
He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.

He voted against the Patriot Act.
He voted against regulating the Internet.
He voted against the Iraq war.

He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

He also sent his kids to publica schools without any kind of Govt loan to pay for them, so while I understand and agree 100% with your statement, but we haven't seen a politician like Ron Paul before.

Great premise though just follow the money, it wont led to Ron Paul.

he also has debate on ABC in Iowa today! (Sunday morning) "this week with George Stephanopolis" Ron Paul will be there check it out.....

Here you can find his personal finances, and I've been through it with a fine tooth comb even going to so far as finding out if there are parent companies that might have a shady past...cant find shit.
Here is a web site that track public figures money, I cant find shit. Maybe you can. http://www.opensecrets.org/

This is his personal tax filing from 05.

Which, unfortunately, is one of the reasons why he doesn't have much of a chance of winning.

Boy you really take this internet stuff seriously don't you? My post was made to keep you political buffs on topic and keep you from making stupid ass posts such as the one following the original one. Period.

[MianoSM]

I think a political forum down in the common interests is a great idea.

Politics are teh ghey.

I'd like one also but it will never happen. Not enough interest/traffic to keep it going. Wait another year before the election. These guys will be going nutso. I just wish they could have nice sensible debates but they don't. There's always one or two that don't add jack because they don't know shit.
