The rise of Ron Paul is extremely frustrating, for a lot of reasons. The biggest being here you have a man with white nationalist/neo-nazi ties, he goes to enemy nations on their media and agrees with them(Iran) and has made many incindiery and outright anti-Semitic or racist comments in the past. Yet through it all, enough normal people look past it because they agree with his fiscal policies. He also endorsed anti-American lunatic Cynthia McKinney for president.
Much of his support comes from young voters who are proving to be woefully ignorant or history or at the very least willing to tolerate evil for their own selfish ends. The sad thing is perhaps these voters don’t even think what he’s done is evil in the first place.
I call associating with neo-nazis/white nationalists evil. I call going to Iran and agreeing with every one of their positions evil. I call supporting anti-Semitic, anti-American Cynthia McKinney evil.
Are people so morally depraved they’re willing to tolerate this man? I’m not saying he’s Hitler, far from it, but I wonder if Germans back in the day said, ‘Well that Adolf says some awful things about the Jews, but he promises to make the trains run on time, so I’ll support him.’
Breaking News: There isn’t a big constituency out there for “bomb Iran” outside of the Evangelical Christian voting bloc. Most Americans are not tuning into the 700 Club to watch Pat Robertson.
“I call associating with neo-nazis/white nationalists evil. I call going to Iran and agreeing with every one of their positions evil. I call supporting anti-Semitic, anti-American Cynthia McKinney evil.”
I’m with you and so is the majority of America!
Indeed, FRiend.
