On the show, hosted by Riz Khan, Paul insisted that he advocated a “strong national defense.”

For who Iran?

When your foreign policy is to have no foreign policy, bad actors rejoice.

Adolf Hitler’s propaganda medias would have praised Ron Paul aswell. All of the evil in this world loves him. The devil is on Ron Paul’s side.

Ron Paul is the least viable candidate in the graphic!

If you would never vote for Paul, as you say, then why are you wondering what, prey tell is the poison about him that has everyone wetting their pants? Surely you can give a reason why you would never vote for him. Maybe it's the same as some other people's reasons for refusing to vote for him.

Ron Paul would be a compelling candidate if he doesn’t have such wacked-out views on foreign policy. I’m sure a lot of people on here would vote for him if his views were more within the Republican mainstream, and I include myself in that group. I can’t really think of one domestic policy position of his that I disagree with. His foreign policy views, however, make him completely unelectable and unfit to serve as President.

First sentence in the previous post should say didn’t instead of doesn’t.

Thanks mnehring.
In addition to getting major sympathetic coverage from Russia Today, which is funded by Moscow, the Texas congressman is getting rave reviews from Press TV, the channel funded by the Iranian regime... he would not object to Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons. He also faulted the CIA for its alleged involvement in Iran in 1953 for bad relations with the current fanatical Islamic regime... Press TV contacted Accuracy in Media on Tuesday, looking for a guest for one of its programs to discuss why Republican Representative and presidential candidate Ron Paul is not getting more favorable attention from the U.S. media. Paul pleased the Iranian regime during the Iowa GOP debate by defending its pursuit of nuclear weapons. AIM declined the invitation but considered the request as more evidence of how foreign propaganda channels, such as Russia Today and Press TV, have embraced the isolationist foreign policy views of the Texas congressman... Press TV highlighted Paul's views on Israel and the Middle East, noting that he opposed the raid to kill Osama bin-Laden and opposes U.S. aid to the Jewish state.

Why would any sane person in government or seeking to be in government, talk to al-jazeera? It would be like giving an interview with Pravda during the Cold War.
