paul’s “foreign policy” is very similar to the America First folks:
The United States must build an impregnable defense for America.
No foreign power, nor group of powers, can successfully attack a prepared America.
American democracy can be preserved only by keeping out of the European war.
“Aid short of war” weakens national defense at home and threatens to involve America in war abroad.
They went out of business after 12-7-41(do I need to explain that date to you?).
So to make a short story of it: these people were not supporting fdr like you claimed, they were opposing him. Also, if we are attacked, it will not be like Pearl Harbor or even 9-11 it will be much worse and building fortress America isn't going to stop ICBMs or medium range missiles. paul’s ideas might have been ok for the 1800s maybe even up to 1918 but isolation is not a viable option for modern times
And since you are of the hold-the-fort RINO faction I will also type slowly so that you can understand: Do you know of that thing on the geographical bottom of the United States? That line? It's called a border. And while you're saluting the flag and Remembering Pearl Harbor with our fighting in the Middle East, you're also supporting a political approach that allows a constant INVASION through that border. It also supports the utter destruction of the economy which - read carefully - PAYS for the military.
Paul does NOT deny the need for a strong military - that's the biggest and baldest lie made about him. What he says is that IF the economy AND the borders were protected FIRST, very little overseas military action would be necessary. That's also called saving the lives of our troops.
But we both know none of this has anything to do with the constant attacks against Paul, because above all, Paul wants to expose the Fed. And THAT is the real "reason behind the reasons" for the constant efforts against him here.
