Funny how you side stepped what I said.

He is unelectable and unsuitable for President.

His criticism of the Fed is correct.

We need to scale back our military entanglements oversears. Or where do you plan to find the money for this.

You claimed that some FReepers here don't understand that we need to scale back our "interventions". Now you soften it with "entanglements overseas".

The only way Ron Paul looks good on foreign policy is to paint the rest of us as wanting our troops in every country and wanting "endless wars". I do not accept this false premise. We all desire efficiency in everything, including the military, and we all encourage our allies to defend themselves, just like the Iraqis are doing for themselves now for example. We also agree that we do not need troops in countries where their presence discouraged the host countries from providing their own defense, i.e., Europe.

The Department of Defense needs MORE money, not less. Nothing has changed with mankind. Utopia is for fools. Either we arm ourselves as much as we can, or become slaves like the people of all other isolationist countries became in the past.
