Correct.
But Ron Paul has never proposed a serious reform to reduce our enormous spending on entitlements.
This is why it always perplexes me that people say they agree with him on fiscal issues.
He focuses on window dressing. The Fed would not need to screw with our money if entitlements were not so destructively expensive.
My heart bleeds! You should have been a “Perrywinkle” if you think you got mistreated on FR.Not a lot of respect for differing opinions on FR. Ran a lot of old FReepers away, never to return.
Everything I like is in the Republican Party platform. If the party would run a candidate who would actually pursue the platform, I'd be completely on board. Because they don't, I'm not.
I don’t like Rand or his father, I certainly hope we can do better in 2016, but I don’t believe it will ever matter again.
Ron Paul finds too much common ground with “progressives.” He would join them in cutting out what progressives hate (the military) and get nothing in return. He’d pull the rug from under Isarel, but that will be accomplished in Obama’s second term. Ron Paul is easily manipulated by amoral and ravishing radical libertarians.
Rand seems more on top of things and more anti-police state/anti-left. Obama’s building a militarized KGB that will have to be ditiched the next election. We’ll have to see.
I don’t think you’re the enemy. In fact, I haven’t I haven’t thought much of you.
Good; that’s just as well. Thank you.
