It should be noted Dondero was fired from the RP campaign, tried to run an unsuccessful campaign against RP in the US House race and now Dondero shills for the Rick Perry campaign.

From paragraph 7 above -

"He is however, most certainly Anti-Israel, and Anti-Israeli in general. He wishes the Israeli state did not exist at all."

So much for R.P.

Three words.

I think he’d be willing to press it if anycountry attacked mainland USA.

RP’s middle initial isn’t “I” by any chance?

BSF: “It should be noted Dondero was fired from the RP campaign, tried to run an unsuccessful campaign against RP in the US House race and now Dondero shills for the Rick Perry campaign.”

Do you have any information that contradicts what the author wrote, or are you simply trying cast doubt on the article by discrediting him?

“Again, American Jews, Ron Paul has no problem with. In fact, there were a few Jews in our congressional district, and Ron befriended them with the specific intent of winning their support for our campaign. (One synagogue in Victoria, and tiny one in Wharton headed by a well-known Jewish lawyer).”

Well, this American Jew has a big problem with Ron Paul. He’s Jew hater, I don’t care how you try to pretty him up. He is for the Arabs. He can go to Hell with the rest of the cowardly, timid, little men who never grew a pair, or knew right from wrong.

I agree with the article.

...Good to know that you speak only for yourself and condemn us eunuchs to the lake of fire. Being an American christian, I won't stereotype all of Jews of zealot judgement.

That is normally called full disclosure.

that is why I would never vote for Paul...Even if he ran unopposed. Oh, by the way, I found it amusing..”Is Ron Paul an Anti-Semite? Absolutely No. As a Jew, (half on my mother’s side)” There is no such thing as a half Jew. If your mother was Jewish, you are Jewish, period.

An.American.Expatriate: “That is normally called full disclosure.”

Fair enough, and I understand it’s better to disclose upfront any information that may otherwise discredit what one writes. Nevertheless, the article is either accurate or not, regardless of who wrote it. The author seems credible to me, especially since he defended Ron Paul on some issues and opposed him on others.

Personally? I don’t know whether or not Ron Paul hates Jews, but I vehemently disagree with his isolationist policies, to include his animosity for one of our allies, Israel. There’s plenty of ground between isolationism and world empire. I think it’s very unwise to believe the US can just sit back as the rest of the world erupts, because some problems will be far, far worse by the time they reach our doorstep.

I will not ever vote for Ron Paul. I don't care what motivates him. It could be hatred or something he thinks is simple pragmatism. Israel is an ally. Not only that, but she's about the only decent democratic country in the entire region. Anyone who would side with the Islamic nutjobs against Israel is a nutjob himself or herself.

Perhaps he is not really Jewish, but rather he has Jewish blood from his mom’s dad (”half on my mother’s side”).

The author seems credible to me, ...

Which is why disclosure is important as that information is necessary to determine credibility - and each of us must decide, for ourselves, how much faith we put into information ...

As to Paul's positions, most I disagree with ...

Ron Paul really is a full blown whacko as far as his views on foriegn relations go. Anybody who repeatedly says “we are the problem” with Iran is a straight up nut in my book.
