I wouldn't go that far. To someone who understands "empire", it may make sense but most people don't see empire that way. The term "empire for empire's sake" then just comes off like the anti-war supporters simply think globalization is stupid and I think that's the wrong way to send the...

Well the article and the quote is not entirely the same but I was forced to use the article because I couldn't find any links on the original quote. My interpretation of the quote is that it's not bad to have liberal ideas. That's why even Ron Paul says, "Freedom is often a young idea". Liberal...

I don't think that's why he is manipulable. It's more like there aren't many consistent politicians anymore. The same can be said for voting expectations. People don't praise consistent politicians anymore. Even both the Tea Party and Ron Paul supporters can't say they value consistent...

I didn't check the videos or the sites to see if you have contents relating to things like this but you guys should bring back that old quote about how: The liberals of today are the conservatives of tomorrow. ...and make a video explaining why from your point of view.

This is a hypothetical that will never happen but damn it, I just re-watched this and I have to say Kucinich would be a poor VP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EsyFmPR6DE The best VP I think is always someone who is more outspoken than the president but at the same tme in agreement with enough...

I think that's just Paul's PR people (or maybe he himself) taking away from the idea that he is for the Gold Standard because you can't win that battle with the media unless they allow for a history lesson but as O'Reilly once told Paul, people don't have time for the history reason...

Well technically it's both. It's both a forum for opinions on the government but it's also very supportive of Ron Paul. I even think I have a post of mine removed just for saying Ron Paul's performance in the debate was lukewarm. At the end of the day though, this is why states could better...

This was a link shared to me elsewhere in this thread but I want to specifically focus on this: Would this really be true in the sense of human nature being able to combat economics without the need for schooling? It seems it's not true. Not in Chile nor throughout the history of free...

Ron Paul's stance is simply to enforce the law and enforce the constitution. That's what I heard/interpret at least. Setting aside the ideologies that has been thrown back and forth to what I feel is off-topic since this is about Ron Paul on his Issues - I would say what this means is that Paul...

Yep. That's the one I'm currently reading. The book feels like a mises.org archive though. It's been awhile since I checked mises.org site and the lay-out has changed a lot but from the one or two articles I read on mises in the past, it definitely felt like a book version of it. I also felt...

Not only that but read the context. It's supposed to be targeted tax cuts leaning towards businesses. Since when has Ron Paul been on the side of businesses alone? His ideals, to my knowledge, has always been that taxes are not just a deterrent to small businesses but it gives incentives for...

It is vast but yeah that's one possibility. I don't live in America though so I often don't see the ideology quite changing. Even nowadays, for America, I see Ron Paul and Peter Schiff as getting past that pseudo-mainstream acceptance and more due to America's economical problem than anything...

Oh, it's not like I do not like your comments. The last thing we need is more emotions less facts. (though my words are closer to opinion) The problem is that it gives people the wrong impression. (Not just to the guy but to potential lurkers) Especially because RP supporters are being diluted...

Guiliani was stupid but I think when he first entertained Paul, he was a lot smarter than Santorum because if Paul gave Giuliani the same attempt he gave Santorum - Paul would have been eaten alive. What made Paul's answer then important was that not only was the answer something that brough...

To be fair, I'd rather not have statements like @Crickett. It makes it seem like Ron Paul supporters are Paulbots. I assume to the on the fence voters, Paul having much more "meat" won't make sense if you have no desire to study the oppostion. I'm no expert at gathering facts but looking at...
