Ron Paul Says "President Obama once again showed that he does not represent the fundamental change this country needs." Is he right?

    Of course Ron Paul is right. What America needs is the exact opposite of everything Obama and his puppet masters stand for.

    Ron Paul is one of only a very few people left in DC today who are still talking political and economic sense. IMO, it's a choice between Ron Paul and others like him or waiting until the economic dam breaks but one way or another prices are going to find their natural level soon and there is going to be hell to pay.

    Lets hope Ron Paul isn't the same as Obama when it comes to his ego and gets behind Romney so we can defeat Obama in Nov and get our country headed at least in the right direction.

    Obama changed things for the worse. We need less government, lower taxes, more businesses and better healthcare. He has done nothing to improve any of these issues.

    The problem with Barack Obama is the same problem that we had with Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, and Johnson. None of them believed in change. With them, things were hopeless.

    He is not right and if Obama has the good fortune to have a congress that does not stop him at every turn for the next four years it will become very obvious.

    And that is why he vetoed NDAA? If he would have proven himself to actually follow the constitution and would have done at least half of what he said he would do, i might have voted for him again this year. But he has only proved himself to be a great disappointment and a liar.

    Perhaps you hadn't noticed while you were looking the other way but since the house was taken over by the republicans they have stopped, or attempted to stop, virtually every thing he has tried to do even when he compromised with them. They have one agenda and that is to insure he is out of office and it makes no difference if this country pays for it.

    Given that fact what do you think he should have done differently? And what makes you think he is a liar? He has attempted to do everything he said he would in spite of the problems this country faces but has been stopped at almost every turn. The party of no has been very effective and their propaganda has been very effective with you also it would seem.

    honestly I believe both of them play off each other and take turns so no one party is to blame and the people will continue to think that they actually have a choice. Republicans and democrats sleep together and rape the public together.

    Unfortunately there is an element of truth to that. They are after all politicians and they all do what they have to to stay in the game. We the people are the ones that pay for it.

    I noticed you didn't answer my questions. I understand.

    he signed the NDAA for one, he is constantly attacking the constitution and the bill of rights. If there was a way to do it differently, i would disband the entire government and start over
  • Mrkando Teri- O... 2012/05/03 04:06:53

    I agree that he should not have signed that bill as written. However you must realize, as I'm sure you do, that the majority of both the House and Senate voted for it also. It is an extension of the patriot act signed into law but President Bush. It does go beyond that but is intended primarily to maintain the status of that original bill. There are indeed problems from both sides of the isle and they all need to be held accountable.

    Of course you are very wrong about that and here are just the first few accomplishments out of over 244 and growing.

    1). Overhauled the food safety system;
    2). Approved the Lily Ledbetter "Equal Pay" for women rule;
    3). Ended "Don't Ask/Don't Tell" discrimination in the military;
    4). Passed the Hate Crimes bill in Congress;
    5). Appointed two progressive women to the U.S. Supreme Court including the first
    Latina;
    6). Pushed through the Affordable Health Care Act, outlawing denial of coverage for pre-
    existing conditions, extending until age 26 health care coverage of children under
    parent's plans, steps toward "Medicare for All;"
    7). Expanded the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) health care for
    children;
    8). Pushed through a $789 economic stimulus bill that saved or created 3 million jobs
    and began task of repairing the nation's infrastructure;

    Sorry call me a racist but anyone that would of voted against the Civil Rights Acts is immoral. Explain all your reasons why Paul is right but nothing unconstitutional was ever challenged and only Conservatives (mostly from the South) fought against them..

    And YES they were Democrats, but they were the Conservative part of the Democratic party. The same States Right attitude that today's GOP is displaying...

    Party labels aren't in this issue. Ideology is...

    It's a shame I need to explain this, but I'll take the time to do so.

    He's not against Civil Rights. He's against government mandated morality. He believes in an individualistic moral code, not a code drafted by the legislature. It has been argued that the most "moral" man is that which goes against his will to be immoral but does moral things, but I side with the opposition to that argument which states that the most moral man is the man who feels good by being moral; which means he is not moral simply because it is expected. If I remember correctly, this argument was held between Socrates and Aristotle.

    It's a shame that people like yourself look at personal responsibility of fairness as some slight. The government is the very institution that allowed slavery and implemented segregation, yet you believe government is the entity which will solve racial issues? Personally, I find that type of logic to be insane.

    The greatest atrocities in world history were the result of government mandates and actions. If history is the greatest teacher - which it is - it becomes impossible to believe that government is the means to our end...which is equality for all man, woman, and child.

    To fully disclose, I am not a RP supporter. I do, however, greatly respect his vision.

    Anybody that votes for anything that negatively affects the rights of others (among these, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness) is truly immoral.

    The civil rights act violates the 9th, 10th, 13th, and 14th Amendments.
