Bush was right on his foreign policy, but wrong when it came to his big government prescription drug policy, his big government approach to education, his big spending on federal programs and so on. Paul is right on those issues, so why wont people here give him a chance? I totally agree; Ron Paul is correct about a lot of domestic issues. He's a libertarian though, and there are many here who hate libertarians more than they do liberal Democrats.
They will not even listen or consider what he has to say, and just start name calling, which is fairly anti-productive. Politics is consensus building, and much of what Paul believes in is rock solid conservatism.

Ron Paul is not liked because he is a nut-job when it comes to foreign policy and continually distorts the Founders on the foreign policy issue as well.

I’ll be glad when JR puts his foot down about this Ron Paul for President stuff.

( Mitt Romney would have to advance two more evolutionary steps to qualify as pond scum.)
