Support from white supremacist, Neo-Nazi “Stormfront”–check.

Said he would neither have fought Hitler in WWII, nor tried to stop the Holocaust–check.

Close all of our overseas bases and pull our troops back to the U.S.–check.

Sees nothing wrong with Iran acquiring a nuclear weapon, nor with their closing of the Straits of Hormuz–check.

In 2009 went over to Iran and praised Hamas on their national TV, bashed Israel, and excused suicide bombing, said the U.S. should stop supporting Israel, and called Gaza a “concentration camp” (http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2011/12/ron-paul-on-iranian-tv-2009-defends-hamas-and-suicide-bombing-bashes-israel.html) –check.

Well, what more could we ask for in a President?

I argue with libertarians that Paul is not one of them. Paul wants to close borders and control immigration. Paul confirms that life begins at conception and abortion is a violation of liberty. I’m amazed he gets so much support from the libs.

Have you taken the time to read what Paul had to say about his move to the Libertarian Party? The problem was that the GOP abandoned conservative principles. The Rs, despite their rhetoric have consistently expanded gov’t and increasingly ignored the set of limits outlined in the Constitution.

If you have the integrity to look at Paul’s platform, you should see why he’s wearing the GOP jersey again. He holds to pretty much all they claim to desire. What sets him apart is his willingness to adhere to those ideals in all situations.

I’m reminded of a recent discussion on the expansion of civil rights for bearing arms. Who could’ve predicted in 1990 that only one state would still totally forbid its subjects to be armed for self defense (although there are still many hold-outs locally, and some other states are still pretty oppressive). Slow work, that, but improvements nevertheless.

Anyway, I respect someone fighting in the arena much more than someone who gives up, awaits Ragnarok, and wishes that he’ll be able to scrape things up from the rubble.

Beware! Ron Paul is batsh-t crazy. Do not lock eyes with it and back slowly away lest you become enthralled by it’s gaze and bewitched.

If he does not pass the gauntlet laid by the DNC for picking our candidate for their Messiah to defeat, then I will vote ABO.

Stockpile commodities if The pResident is re-enthroned.

It’s could be a rough ride.

I have a question for you: Why is Ron Paul running as a Republican in the Republican Primaries? Is he a Republican? If so, then your whole argument is shot through and through. If not, then your man is a fraud.

Whether he is really mad I guess is a matter of conjecture. But either he is mad or he is a fraud. Which is it?

I am “conflating America with the Federal Government”? The mad person is almost monomaniacal – they see only one thing whether it is there or not.

Be that as it may…I have not been a federal Employee in the innermost of innermost circles of the Federal Government for 25 years. Ron Paul has. Very few people have been gaming the system to no good end for as long as he has.

But wait! He’s a libertarian!

Really, Ron Paul hates hot dogs? That’s the depth of your thinking? The whole world would be thrown into chaos? I should go back to calling you McAhmadinejad.

Re-read your last post and tell me again about arm-waving and eye-glazing.

But seriously, when you include the Constitution as part of the America you think Obama will destroy, tell us how any of the GOP prospects has shown integrity to an Oath to honor and defend the limits set out in that document?

You have inferred one of my points correctly. The America you claim to be arm-wavingly keyboard-frothingly concerned about saving has already passed. The Constitution has been demoted to a whim. It’s easy to have no problem with it when it has been rendered inoperative. That’s why I asked you–you specifically–to explain what it was you feel is about to end. I actually want to understand your perspective and your argument.

You make a standard error in assuming what you see in these comments is the entirety of my view. The faults I am hammering here are those of the electeds and the appointeds who have taken law into their own hands. You do not see my opinions about apple pie or baseball (in my case, football). And don’t get me started on how much I love my Mom.

When you try, again, to substitute ad hominem with argument, you present yourself as a confirmed fool. Were you somewhere else when I was making the similar strident defenses of Herman Cain on this very forum? Did your eyes gloss over the zillion times I have called for conservatives to pick a candidate with coattails?

Closer to the root, I reject your error of conflating “America” with the Federal Government. I want better pie and more competitive football. I want the invisible conspiracy of goodwill that serves and binds us as a people to endure. I want the ideals in the Declaration to guide and shape our society. I see the Constitution as a wonderful means toward enabling each of us to achieve all those ends. America is us, the country class, not them, the ruling class. I want to live in the country the Founders gave us, not the soft tyranny of the Bi-Factional Ruling Party and its slow-witted enablers.

Every time Paul mentions America it is to disparage it.

In that he is like Obama, and Hamas for that matter.

It is like the man or woman who says they love their spouse but all they ever do is point out their faults.

And what is it with you whackazoid Paulistas thinking you are so clever? Is it now a condition of political commentary that one must first “define” America? Have you? Has Paul? Has anyone? That’s nuts.

I know what America is. It is the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. it is the Declaration and the Constitution. It is hot dogs, apple pie and baseball. It is freedom and liberty and opportunity. My educated guess is that Ron Paul winces at all of those things. I bet he hates baseball. I’m sure he hates hotdogs.

Let’s recap: Ron Paul has fed at the public trough for one-quarter century now. he has yet to pass one bill that I ever heard of, or make any positive change in the direction he says he wants for all that time. It is certain he is making a ton of money both from his salary for a quite literally in his case do-nothing job that we pay for; and for all the people who pay him to be their ornery crank who says crazy things for them.

He will never get the nomination. He’s not even a Republican (he’s a libertarian) and is therefore a fraud for even seeking their nomination. Every day he is on the race it is only more likely Obama gets re-elected. He has almost no support at all outside his faithful cadre of libertarian brownshirts who stuff polls and will skew Iowa since it is a caucus and not a vote.

If by some moonshot miracle he got the R nomination – a virtual impossibility – he would lose every single State. Who would give him a majority? Montana? No way.

Have you heard him in the debates? Have you heard him say Michelle Bachman hates muslims, and all manner of outrageous things like that? In that high pitched arm waving eyes glazed over manner of his?

I have no problem with the Constitution. Paul is a mad man. If he were President, the whole world would be thrown into chaos and the U.S. would be a shell of itself with misery all around.
