————————-
A LoneStarTimes.com investigation has conclusively established that a leading figure in the American neo-Nazi / White-Supremacist movement has provided financial support to Ron Paul’s 2008 Presidential campaign.
The individual in question is Don Black, the founder, owner and operator of Stormfront, a “white power” website that both professional journalists and watch-dog groups have identified as the premier English-language racist/hate-site on the Internet.
Previous LST posts have focused on banner “widgets” appearing on the front-page of Stormfront. It is important to emphasize that these are NOT “advertisements” placed on Stormfront BY the Paul campaign, but rather publicly-available graphics that Stormfront’s owner has chosen to place himself, with links directly to Paul’s donation page.
Nevertheless, LST has in the past several weeks raised a series of questions for the Paul campaign; specifically–
1. Can Paul confirm that the donation widgets appearing on Stormfront are the result of the site owner’s actions, not the campaign’s?
2. Will Paul take measures to block Stormfront as a referring URL to his own website, so that no future donations can possibly flow into his campaign from a site that serves as the on-line nexus of neo-Nazism?
3. Will Paul ask his own web-staff to trace past donations that were made by anyone arriving at his campaign’s webpage from Stormfront, so that these contributions can be rejected?
4. Will Paul explore if there are any legal actions available to try to remove his donation widget from Stormfront, and if so pursue them?
5. At the very least, will Paul personally state publicly, vigorously and unmistakably that he rejects the support of white supremacists, and that he will not knowingly tolerate their involvement with his campaign in any form or to any degree?
LoneStarTimes.com’s managing editor Matt Bramanti left multiple messages last week for officials in Paul’s national campaign press office seeking comment. None were returned.
In the interim, a number of grassroots supporters of Paul’s campaign– including many honorable and regular readers of LST– have argued that…
These abstract debates are now moot– a contribution to the Paul campaign by a known white-supremacist has been identified.
The evidence is as follows:
In light of these facts, we believe our previously asked questions continue to have merit.
A final note– it is traditional in political campaigns for candidates to return contributions from “toxic” donors once sufficient public scrutiny and outcry has been generated.
The difficulty in this instance is that if Ron Paul returns these funds to Mr. Black, all he will have done is given a neo-Nazi $500 more dollars with which to spread his psychotic bile.
We would therefore like to suggest that the Ron Paul campaign donate Black’s $500 to any of the following worthy recipients–
We try to be helpful.

Your watch is slow....
In other words: don't sweat the incoming pygmy fusillade. ;)
I didn't say they were and they have a right to ban Paul supporters as they are private property. But they apparently have no problem still posting anti-Paul threads then.
The Paul haters want the Paul "high" without dealing with the after-effects (responding to Paul supporters). If RedRumstate wants to live in their own echo chamber, go for it. But it gets old after a while, and I predict the site will tank within the coming weeks, per the Alexa rankings.
RuPaul Alert!
Kind of like Hillary threds. We post them all day long, exposing her and bashing her, but we don't let Hillary trolls post their leftist crap.
LOL, yea, base support on who downloads a spyware filled toolbar. I wonder how Ron Paul is doing among the iWon toolbar crowd?

You kidding me!
That's like going to the lastest action flick and watching it without the sound. Got to have the Paul folks for the full effect!
Oh yeah. Like this shocked us.
Most of the racist groups have always been Paul supporters.
‘yawn
Why 5% of FR spends so much time focusing on someone polling at 1-2% in Republican primaries is seriously hilarious—and tragic at the same time. You and a couple others on here seriously spend more time fighting against Ron Paul — with .1% chance of being elected — than fighting Hillary with probably 55% chance of being elected or Obama with 10% chance of being elected.’
Pssssst. This is a political forum. Politics are discussed all day long here. As are those that make their living as Politicians.
Ron Paul, Kook Deluxe, is a Politician, this is a political topic.
Be thankful anyone even mentions the guy. The old saying ‘The worst thing is being talked about, the second worst thing is NOT BEING TALKED ABOUT.” applies.
Yea, we never, ever respond to Paul supporters on topic, never ever ever....
I know what you mean. I posted in a column about Duncan Hunter, and I said I liked what DH stood for, but in my opinion, he won't win the primary.
You would have thought I questioned his heritage, integrity and patriotism all at the same time.
The snarky comments were laughable, but those people should really just learn to relax. Or failing that, wrap their heads in duct tape to prevent explosions.
And when he fails to do either of those things, that is when you will start start "spinning for Paul or making excuses."
Can we set a specific date—say, by next Friday—by which if Paul is still in the bunker on this issue, you'll tell us why it's no big deal? I need to know when to check back on this, because I'd hate to miss that explanation.
Way to break FR rules.
