Paul has endorsed Baldwin

[ihsv]

I wish I could be their with you, but I won't be. I'll keep my place fighting for rights of us non-christians.

People groups. How about you fight for the rights of the individual, instead?

 

[Dorfsmith]

Ah, ok. Thanks for clearing that up. :o

No problem If Baldwin was not an eligible write in I would be forced to vote Barr. I want my vote to be a little thorn in the flesh of Obama and McCain so it would have to be counted.

I hear the snare drum firing up, piccolo flute, and their raising the flag

I was kind of hoping that he wouldn't endorse anybody, either, especially since there's a 99% (statistic made up by me) chance that we'll have to take our country back by ourselves anyway. I think the reason he did it was because he knew so many people were going to write him in, which wouldn't do any good. He endosed somebody to try and encourage people to vote third party.

Oh, and for Baldwin haters who claim that a single endorsement can completely turn them off from a campaign (no names mentioned), you should definately rethink your assessment. Does Baldwin wear his faith on his sleeve? Yes. Does he have some rather biased writings? Yes. However, where it truly counts, he's right on the money. At least that's what I've come to the conclusion of.

I didn't think an endorsement would mean a whole lot to so many people. We all fell in love with Ron Paul's message, right? Then regardless of whom he endorses, and for whatever reasons he endorses (I hate you Barr), we should still vote for whomever we feel best represents that message. Is Baldwin a carbon copy of Dr. Paul? No. But he's a whole lot closer to it than either McCain or Bob Barr or Nader.

Ron Paul also tells you to jump off a cliff... therefore...?

You ask which cliff.

 

[Archie]

I don't really like Baldwin,Barr or Nader but all three of these lush's are way the he'll better on things like forign policy then Obummer or McCrapola

What would become of the RPF if there was nothing to bitch about?

The way I see it, folks need'a stop nitpickin' about the election. Main goal should be tearing down the two party system - who cares if it's through a "socialist", "theocrat", or "CIA mole" (IE - it's just a protest vote..) The beef I've seen people have with Baldwin is some nonsense about porn and drugs? I personally haven't looked into it, but with the country fixin' to implode shouldn't porn n' drugs be at the bottom of the list of things to worry about?

Also, everyone sees Ron as the glorious perfect candidate whom they agree with on all issues - maybe that's because they didn't care about politics pre-Paul and have now adopted all of his issues as their own.

Branch out and let go of your Ron Paul infatuation!

*PASS* on the Constitution Party -- the fact that they espouse their adherence to the Constitution makes their distortion of it to conform to their "values" even more distasteful.

Oh please. It's quite clear that is not what I meant. When Chuck states that my rights will be protected from all entites whether they be local, state, or federal I may start to pay attention. From what I see and hear of Chuck he wants state rights, not individual liberties. It will be a battle between moral vs non-moral. I'd prefer for their to be no battle and educated individuals deciding what is right for themselves.

 

[EastWindRain]

Well we have our marching orders, so let's do what we can in support of Dr. Chuck Baldwin.

 

[Scotso]

A subtle but firm slap to the face of Bob Barr. I enjoyed that.

I still won't vote for Baldwin, though. But I'm glad Ron Paul got a nice jab in to Barr. He probably wouldn't have taken sides had Barr not acted like a spoiled brat.

 

[Indy Vidual]

That REALLY sucks. Especially considering Chuck's ballot access woes, homophobic writings, and the Constitution Party's theocratic, unlibertarian platform.

For the first time I regret voting for Ron Paul and donating hundreds of my hard-earned dollars to him.

Shiiiiiiiiiit.

Hm, bad move I think. Neither candidate is a principled liberty lover. He should have endorsed nobody.

Huge mistake by Dr. Ron.

 

[dannno]

Huge mistake by Dr. Ron.

That's like, your opinion, man..


I say Ron Paul is calculating.

 

[Bman]

Not a huge mistake. It just brings light to something I've known for a while. We are two groups.

Small Government Christians and Small Government non-Christians.

Now this comment typically pisses off the christians. But you must remain calm and understand it has nothing to do with you being Christian. It has everything to do with some of Chucks past, and certainly a lot to do with the CP's mission statements.

Quite frankly a lot of us left the church in the first place to get away from that type of thought process. And now you think we'd be jumping back on because Ron said he's supporting Chuck. It's just not that easy. Come to us as people. Not as Christians. That's what Ron Paul did right that Chuck cannot.

So..why not Lawson?

I was expecting Lawson since they showed a video clip/advertisement of Lawson during The Rally For The Republic. So, why not just stick with Lawson instead?

 

[BuddyRey]

Ron Paul's endorsement means a lot, and I still haven't ruled out Baldwin...but I really don't want to vote for him!

If only it was 2004 again, I could vote for Michael Badnarik and feel good about my choice.

 

[Pauls' Revere]

That's like, your opinion, man..

Yeah, he's in this for the long haul and has patience beyond measure.

 

[Pauls' Revere]

You ask which cliff.

and how high?

 

[RickyJ]

Come to us as people. Not as Christians.

Christians are people. True Christians cannot come to you as anything but Christians. They just happen to be people you don't like. Ron Paul is also a Christian. He supports Baldwin for a reason, and it has little to do with Barr being a spoiled brat. He just decided to let everyone know who he supports because Barr would not stop bothering him about it. He was trying to be respectful to Barr here and not do anything that would hurt his chances because he truly wants third parties to have an impact this year. Barr dug his own grave here. IMO Ron Paul has supported Chuck Baldwin from the moment he dropped out of the race and Chuck started running.

Anger Management? F' You Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has Ron Even Read The CP Platform?

While we believe in the responsibility of the individual and corporate entities to regulate themselves, we also believe that our collective representative body we call government plays a vital role in establishing and maintaining the highest level of decency in our community standards.

We support legislation to stop the flow of illegal drugs into these United States from foreign sources

All teaching is related to basic assumptions about God and man. Education as a whole, therefore, cannot be separated from religious faith.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I might come back to RPF's (if I don't get banned for this post), but I'm really pissed!!


F' You Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, I voted for Ron Paul at the LP convention in 1988.
I used to consider him a hero.



This January I was shocked and dismayed by the (old) newsletter scandal.

* Are the animals still coming from the cities Ron?
F' You Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
* How did you not know about all the homophobic filth in your newsletters Ron??
F' You Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


/How does Ron stay so calm?
