Former US congressman, founder of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity, and many-time presidential candidate Ron Paul discusses the 2016 presidential race on the Russian government's English-language propaganda station.
RT HOST: I first asked Dr. Paul what he thinks it says that the three candidates from the private sector are doing the best, does that mean the economy is the foremost issue on the minds of most Americans?
RON PAUL: Well probably yes, but if you look at the Democrat side, you have someone like Bernie Sanders, who has been in nothing else except politics. And he's doing pretty well. And most incumbents are reelected.
So I think some of this stuff in the presidential campaigns is orchestrated by the major media. It is entertainment. They have competitions going on and on. So I don't put a lot of stock [in the presdential process], this is still pretty early. ..

Sounds like a sore loser.
Yeah ... and this time he’s *OUR* authoritarian!
We’ve got an authoritarian president. What has Rand done to stop him?
Smoke dope? Work on dope legalization? Eat edible dope?
Says the guy who spent millions of dollars of other people’s money, several times, trying to be the boss...
“There is no man alive who doesn’t dream about getting his butt washed in the Jedi fountain.”
Ron Paul
And some think that's a good thing. Lord help the republic.
I sense that some here have not yet completely familiarized themselves with the meaning of the word....authoritarian!
I am aghast
Or the meaning of autocracy.
Or the meaning of constitutional republic.. and what it took to create and keep.
Next time we’re forced to bake a gay wedding cake we’ll think about that.
the very idea that we should “hire” a rich guy,...to “run” the country..is somewhat repellant to me..
Ron who!?
The meme seemes to be: He’s a bully, but he’s our bully.
"My son Rand is a trained ophthalmologist, and one day he was going to check my eyes, but, unfortunately, he couldn't find them, cause my eyebrows got in the way."
