    Why won't Ron Paul cosponsor bill to impeach Bush?

    Why hasn't Ron Paul signed on to co-sponsor his good friend Dennis Kucinich's articles of impeachment against George Bush? I've been getting a lot of flack about this as of late from people, and I really have no response to them. People are saying that Ron Paul is just sticking with his party...

    Who Voted?

    I finally got to vote for Ron Paul today! I've been waiting so long for this :p At my polling place in Concord, I got there about 10:30am, and there was practically no one else there to vote. One lady came in behind me, and that was it.

    What about patents?

    Just a little devil's advocate here, but couldn't it be argued that, like Sam's contract with Joe, a patent is a contract with the rest of society? Essentially, you have the option of keeping your idea to yourself, or putting your idea out on the market. If you choose to put your idea on the...

    What about patents?

    I don't really believe in IP, but I can accept that it can be beneficial to a society within limitation. I think patents should be limited to 10 years, and we need much stricter limits on what can actually be patented. Software patents should definitely not be allowed, and of what remains, they...

    Net Neutrality

    You guys talk like property ownership is the most important thing in the world. Well, when the property is ILL-GOTTEN from years of government subsidies and protections, then they have NO RIGHT to that property. The problem HAS already happened. ISPs out there are already filtering certain kinds...

    Net Neutrality

    ARealConservative: I don't see anything about the issue that has anything to do with consumer intelligence. It doesn't matter how intelligent you are, when broadband providers in your area have a monopoly or duopoly on the market, and proceed to censor and filter the content that you have access to.

    Net Neutrality

    Personally, I think net neutrality isn't a huge deal yet, but in the near future it very well may be. Net neutrality legislation simply treats the symptom, rather than solving the source of the problem. For that reason, Ron Paul opposes net neutrality, but he would work to fix the problem at...

    What now for Ron Paul?

    The numbers they report mean nothing, except that the delegates are "supposed" to vote for mccain.

    Bob Etheridge (D) is running unopposed District 2

    I say try to go for it! No one should have the privilege of running unopposed, especially not if that guy sucks!

    When did you first realize you were interested in politics?

    Back when I was in high school, I heard the "Neal Boortz" show on the radio. I thought it was amusing how he didn't show any respect to the callers, and it was fun to hear him rip on Bill Clinton. That's when I learned politics could be fun :)

    Can someone argue this logic?

    George Washington: "Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the people's liberty teeth (and) keystone... the rifle and the pistol are equally indispensable... more than 99% of them [guns] by their silence indicate that they are in safe and sane hands. The very...

    Can someone argue this logic?

    I don't see a problem. What is a militia? A militia is the PEOPLE.

    Georgia trying to take NC and TN land...SOUNDS LIKE THE NAFTA SUPERHIGHWAY TO ME!

    Hell, we have a drought here in NC too! Just last night I saw a commercial on tv with the governor telling everyone to please conserve water, and they have been talking about the drought in the news nonstop for the past half year or so. Hmmm... if there isn't enough water to sustain people...

    Paul's stance on corporates?

    As I think it has already been pointed out (but maybe not), corporations are a creation of the government. The corporation is given special privileges that are not given to others. If I go and start my own business as a sole proprietorship, or maybe a partnership, then I have to be very careful...

    Will McCain drop out?

    Well, alright mccain may not be willing to drop out. But do you guys think he will continue to win the rest of the states now? The core of the gop was already against him, but now with this scandal, I wonder if the "moderates" or whoever it was who was voting for him will still feel the same way?
