I agree.
Thanks for your input, QueenB4Liberty! Maybe you should change your name now?
I agree.
Because Ron thinks we're stronger for embracing diversity
Didn't these dodos know that Ronnie is philosophically for complete open borders [at least that's how he ran in '88 but has since changed his position for pragmatic reasons] and finds racism "ugly"? Just felt like pointing this out for the lulz![]()

Great, the idea of countries is silly.

Yes but borders do not mean walls or fences either.
We need borders but people always try and assume it to be a separatist movement or isolationism. Those on stormfront have their opinion just like everyone else does according to this great country and why is it that so many so called "Freedom lovers" are so quick to trash ANY OTHER thought or ideals that are different than their own? Not seeing what the difference is at all.
Who cares what some nazi's think?
Who cares what some black panther wannabe thinks?
that is their own right and if they look at ron paul as a person who can allow them to enjoy their freedoms and rights to their own point of view then by all means let them call him as they want. Thats just one opinion that differs from many others.
who cares.....
As long as you don't HARM, HURT or reduce someone elses rights then I don't care if you walk around with a "I hate whitey" flag in front of me.
I don't get it. Stormfront thought Ron Paul was secretly racist or something?

So you guys adore the founding fathers right?
Also, I think it was a year ago on PBS that Ron Paul said he didn't want racist (particularly white supremacist) support, hehehehe
Ah, here's the clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gKXyBgr24c
I guess they missed the memo...
I should have probably worded that differently. He didn't believe in having any restrictions on immigration.
I believe there's little evidence that diversity is all it's cracked up to be. It's a very safe slogan to spout off and much appreciated by the opinion makers in the country, though. Are we truly better off as a nation since the racial composition has been radically altered? The most diverse state in the nation, California, has fallen from (I believe) 10th rated in education to 48th. And the state is drowning in debt.
I also believe that "embracing diversity" is really in direct contradiction to the pursuit of individual liberty and a colorblind society. If skin color truly doesn't matter, then what is there to embrace one way or the other?
Without getting hateful and referring to folks who dare to question the pro-diversity rhetoric as knuckle-dragging morons, what specific evidence is there that we've benefitted from it as a nation? Certainly the gay rights movement didn't benefit from it where in California black folks and Hispanics voted as a majority for the ban on gay marriage (blacks voted 70% to 30& for), while whites as a majority opposed it. While that's one small example, some of the people most likely to cheerlead diversity are doing so in opposition to their own interests.
I still maintain that individual liberty and colorblindness is the real answer here, and maybe even an honest assessment of whether or not actually celebrating diversity and multiculturalism is beneficial.
