My statement “Ron Paul believes that States may ban Abortion.”
Is entirely true. Not “balderdash”. He believes that States may ban abortion if they want, or allow abortion if they want.
Right now, SCt puts limits on what a state can do.
Ron Paul’s position is a pro-Life position, but not the only pro-Life position. I could go through his record, point by point, to show that he’s a solid pro-lifer.
Here’s one - sponsor of the sanctity of life act

It's balderdash because it amounts to lying by omission.
Of course states "can" ban abortion. What he, and seemingly you, leave out is that states "must" ban abortion under the explicit provisions of our Constitution.
And that's exactly what his phony "Sanctity of Life Act" does as well.
