Why do you believe that rhetoric? Ron Paul is totally opposite from Obama..ORomney and Obama both support NDAA and the Patriot Act..I am sorry but Romney sucks..People are sick of voting for the lesser of 2 evils or the cleaner turd..People want to vote for the Constitution and the fact of the matter Ron Paul will take Democrats and Independents away from Obama! Why is nobody bitching about Gary Johnson the Libertarian Candidate? If Romney loses it will be because of SEIU and Black Panthers, voter intimidation, voter fraud..I am sick of this rhetoric..We had McCain in 2008 and the only reason MCCain got my vote was because of Sarah Palin!!

Especially the foreign aid by the State Department where they are refurbishing and modernizing mosques in the middle east. They still think we're going to win the Muzzies over.

Romney being the wrong candidate, supports "More of the Same".
Do you now understand the Ron Paul folks position?

I don't think Romney supports more of the same.I know he's more of a RINO, than a conservative, but he has a better chance at winning and his politics would embrace more fiscal sanity that the current occupant.

We need to slow this down so we can have an honest national debate about whether communism is where we want to go, don't you think? Sometimes you just need a book mark. We know that Paul is not going to get elected this time around. We don't know that Romney can't get elected. He could maybe do it. But it will take all of us. Try not thinking of just the President. Remember that so much more goes with it. A new cabinet. A new sense and new vibe. But mostly....a pause to think. An unfettered Obama is surely the end of the American Republic as we know it. You sound like you're throwing in the towel I hope you don't do that. This is exactly the environment that the Obama administration is wishing to create and capitalize on. Not voting, or voting for Obama out of apathy, or more to the fact despair is a very dangerous way of dealing with these complex feelings we're all having.

If we don't have the national will to have an election, how do you believe we have the national will for a revolution? Who would be revolting against whom? What would the premise be? The results of the French Revolution were devastating. The American Revolution bore good fruit. Who rises up? We can't even get out the vote.

I can see martial law being declared and the UN or Obama's National Civilian Forces trying to disarm the American people..I think half the military will turn on him and he will catch hell from state militias! My friend says when UN blue helmets patrol the streets the war is on..He is in the Indiana State Miltia..I see it happening if we have an economic collapse..Its scary!

Interesting. Wow. I hope we're not THAT close. As I said, history doesn't have much in the way of good results when revolution is the last answer. I suppose the American Revolution, and the Mexican Cristero revolution are about the only two I can think of which ended in a better state for conservatives minded persons. The others have all resulted in some form of Communism. Anyway, thanks. You are good in response. No nastiness or gainsaying. I always appreciate that.

If you do stand behind your convictions and Ron Pauls against war, why would you work so hard to make sure there is one by helping Obama get re-elected. You want war Rock, I can see that clearly now. So your convictions are false. Be honest Rock, tell it like it is. You are pissed off at life and want to go to war so that you can find a place to put your anger. Unfortunately, your going to be dragging the rest of the country along with you. Do you really think that watching your neighbors and family being killed in the streets is going to make you feel better? There is a peaceful way of saving our Republic, but YOU won't even look at it.

Ron Paul is not against wars? Geez, He is against UnConstitutional wars..Our last Constitutionally declared war was World War 2..Yes if we get attacked, yes we go to Congress and have them declare war..Not the President or a UN mandated war!

..I am talking about a Revolution on the streets to regain the Republic..I don't want this but I am aware that history repeats itself and we defintely got a tyrant in office..

The National will is irrelevant in this regard. Our revolution in 1776 was fought by around 3% of the people.
"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds."

So you are giving up on the Republic? It sounds as though you want Obama to win so that we can have a revolution, yet at the same time Rock, you say you are against war. I'm having a bit of trouble believing that you are against war. Revolution should be the last possible resort, their are too many American lives to be lost in a revolution, the lives of your own children will be at risk. Is that where you truly want to go? I would rather try the peaceful way to change our government, working from the bottom up with a grass root movement to remove liberals from our local government. I don't want my children and grandchildren to have to pick up arms and fight for their very lives on American soil. Do you?

Oh yes Rock, history does repeat itself IF WE ALLOW IT TO. You seem to be wanting it to. For the fight, think about why you want that fight Rock. I think you believe it's a place to put your anger over your own personal situation. You're letting your anger rule your head. Do you really want your children living through a war in our country? DO YOU?

Rock, would you rather take the fast road to serfdom with Obama? You know that Ron Paul can never win as a write in you also know that splitting the vote would be giving Obama another 4 years. Why do you chose the fast road to destruction over a slow road that we at least have a chance of stopping. We need to put our efforts into who gets elected into congress that can hold Romney's feet to the fire. In MN libertarians are coming out of the woodwork to run for local offices, that's a good beginning. We can still save our Republic by working from the bottom up. There is no way that Romney is going to be able to continue Obama's backroom deals, the Tea Party will not allow it to happen. Remember Obama has nothing at all to lose, this will be his last hurrah and he is going to speed up his agenda. Romney on the other hand will be looking for re-election in 4 years, he won't get that if he fails to work for the American people. Romney has made sacrifices for the American people. He worked for Governor for 4 years without taking a salary. His 3 year salary for the Olympics was donated to charity. His inheritance was donated to charity. He believes in the free market.

That's a defeatest attitude. Romney is a good man as he has proven by serving the people and not taking any compensation, he deserves credit for that. He is not a socialist or an enemy of this countries. But you want war, it's in every statement that you make. You want it because you are angry and you need to take that out on someone, anyone. Your need to get back to praying Rock, you really do. Give that anger over to God.

Regardless, he's better than the current occupant. Paul has no chance of winning and making him a write in is exactly what the left wants. It will divide the vote and insure a victory for the left. Romney can unseat him. Wake up!

Romney has a proven track record in business. Paul is so naive in foreign policy that he is a danger. Voting for Paul is akin to betting on "I'll Have Another" in the Belmont, days after the race and the horse has been scratched. The GOP race is over, Paul is out and writing his name in is a waste of a vote.

My candidate lost in all but two elections in my lifetime, and one of those two wins, I regretted one of them, and ended up wishing I'd gone the other way. So basically I'm 1 for 8. I understand how that feels. And yes, we've been on the wrong track for a long time. But I really do believe we've bottomed out here. We can't do any worse than the current administration other than just going ahead and giving up the vote, which cost us an awful lot of blood.
