I am definitely NOT a Ron Paul fan; I admire his domestic policy agenda but despise his pacifist-isolationist-defeatist positions. Nonetheless NONE of the dozen or so fans of his I know are anti-semitic or pro-Farrakhan or pro-islam in any way.

“I admire his domestic policy agenda”

Except that ron paul does not DO as ron paul SAYS. ron paul is a charlatan.

I think you are correct and I also know if you confront them with Paul's records on Israel and his anti-Semitism they deny deny deny and deny some more.
Personally, I think many Paul supporters do not actually know what he believes or how he has voted.

That's true. For a brief time, I was one of RuPaul's Useful Idiots, until I started reading garbage like the DailyPaul. Then, I started reading some of Lew Rockwell's nonsense and returned to planet Earth. I think it's more that RuPaul says what people want to hear, just like Third World Dictator Obama. Ru's record on smaller government is non-existent.

“Nonetheless NONE of the dozen or so fans of his I know are anti-semitic or pro-Farrakhan or pro-islam in any way.”

That may be true for the Ron Paul fans YOU KNOW, but it would seem that there are such people among the Ron Paul fans, for they provided the link to the “Final Call” screed blaming the west’s belated anti-Qaddafi mood on a cabal of Jewish bankers.

Among less well-educated and less well-informed Conservatives there is a sizable quotient that DO subscribe to any number of conspiracy theories and who do frequently, in my opinion, place themselves in the body of any number of populist causes espoused by very un-Conservative people.

I am not terribly surprised that among Ron Paul supporters in dialogue on his website were some who made, and knew of, the link to Farrakan’s Jewish Conspiracy theory.

There may be no direct link to Ron Paul himself in THIS matter, though he his not known in Congress as an ardent defender of Israel, and some would go as far as to say he has been an opponent of the extent of U.S. support for Israel - an extent that some of us Conservatives would characterize as often not supportive enough.

“Nonetheless NONE of the dozen or so fans of his I know are anti-semitic or pro-Farrakhan or pro-islam in any way.”

He and most of his fans favor Palestine over Israel. That’s a Muslim/Jew issue for sure. And since his fans parrot his talking points, I guess they’re now also in favor of the Twelver in Iran getting nukes to accomplish his stated goal of wiping Israel off the map, then going after us.

I’m talking about all the dyed in the wool Paul fanati-bots. So maybe the few you know are just lukewarm, partial fans who don’t buy into the total program.
