    2012 backroom deal to thwart Ron Paul comes back to haunt party in 2016

    I was a staunch republican, middle class, middle age sheeple who supported the party until the day I saw that bumper sticker "Google Ron Paul" and woke up. I am still a registered republican, but only because I want to vote in the primaries. I no longer support the party, because of THIS^^ I'm...

    Alternative Press is why Americans oppose Syrian Intervention.

    Whoever owns the means of information dissemination controls the people (or at least public opinion) because everyone including myself have to get information from SOMEwhere. If the information we have access to is flawed so too will our opinions, and reasoning and judgment be flawed. The...

    Vermont passes law allowing doctor-assisted suicide

    I do not support this. Whatever happened to "First do no harm" ? If someone wants to commit suicide that's their decision, a decision I do not agree with, but it's their life to do with as they wish even if that wish is an irrevocable mistake. Involving physicians in this decision is a terrible...

    James Garner movie line on war

    Ghandi changed the world without using violence. Can we not do the same? I don't want ANYONE to get killed. Everyone who dies leaves behind broken hearts and broken lives.

    The one obvious option isn't mentioned. Swarming the gunman seems like suicide, better to shoot the bastard.

    Miscarriage = baby; Abortion = "mass of cells"

    Religion has nothing to do with it. The libertarian philosophy is based on the non-violence principal. Hurting another human being is wrong unless it's in self defense. You know that. I know that. Everyone knows that, and taking a life is the ultimate hurt. A fetus isn't a human being you say...

    "People say what's going to happen when the Chinese and the Russians get this technology? The president is well aware of those concerns and wants to set the standard for the international community on these tools," Of course NOW he wants to set guidelines after killing thousands of innocent...

    Division of labor - What is it RPForums does really well?

    We all like to think we have an open mind, but try criticizing our political party and watch how fast it closes. Criticism only works if that person is already doubting. In order to reach folks, we must first have their attention, in order to get their attention we must first have them on our...

    Division of labor - What is it RPForums does really well?

    What RP forums does really well? Hrmmmm.... OK here goes. Preach to the choir. If we are to have any success at all in changing minds, the most important thing we can do is influence others. Spread the word. 3 minute soundbites that make people think. Slogans and catchy songs. Our people are...
