    Default Consistency in politics?? Can it be true?

    Guess who has been saying the same thing for almost a quarter of a century and still stands by it. If you said anyone except Ron Paul, you were wrong.

    I wonder what happened to the Paul/Ventura ticket. Hearing mention of that a while back got me pretty amped.

    He may be consistent, and I agree with a lot of his domestic policy, but I just can't support somebody who blames America for the rest of the world hating us. Just can't do it.

    So he's been consistently wrong for a quarter century? Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have been saying the same thing for that long, too. Doesn't mean they have any more credibility.

    Not a Ron Paul fanboy because of his foreign policy and national security stances.

    So you cant agree with strengthening our borders? You agree that we should continue to fight unsustainable wars that are costing us money we can't afford and costing us more lives of men and women of this country? You cant agree with letting the rest of the world fight their own battles? We should just keep backing one side, then turning on them the next conflict?

    We backed Afghanistan against the Soviets, then turned our back on them. We backed Saddam when he went into Iran, then went after him twice. You dont think that sends a message that we have nto true allegiance to anyone?

    I'm all for looking out for this countries best interests, but I refuse to believe that we should not expect to be hated when we have been establishing governments that end up being worse for these people than the last one was. We made Bin Laden the power he became. We made Saddam the power he became. If you believe we have never done anything that would inspire hatred, then you are mistaken.

    Ron Paul doesn't say we should apologize for making mistakes, he say we should stop making them. He doesn't say we owe the world anything, he just says we should stop trying to be the world police.

    My thing is this. I don't agree with everything Ron Paul believes, far from it actually. What I do want in a candidate, he has. Honesty, integrity, and backbone. There wi never be a politician that everyone agrees with. There will never be one that his entire party agrees with. That is part of being human, we can never fully agree. The one thing I know is this, I want an honest man in office. I want someone who actually votes the way he talks. And there is no other candidate that has voted consistently his entire political career besides Ron Paul. Perry was Al Gore's campaign manager for Christ sakes. Romney back social healthcare and gun control in Massachusetts.

    There are two things in this country that need to stop. The Federal Reserve, and unsustainable wars. I agree we should have sought revenge for 3000+ American lives. I think we should have gone in there, prepared for full war, no bullshit pussy footing. Made them regret ever having fucked with us. Instead we have fought a war of insurgency that has not gotten the job done, reinforced that section of the worlds view of us. and started laying in the ground work for another government that we will eventually turn against. We have lost well over 3000 American soldiers, so now we have lost twice the otiginal number and still no end in sight. We spend billions of dollars a day on this war. And those dollars were printwd to us and loaned to us a nation, with interest. Therefore we are even more indebt. We aee in debt on every dollar printed the moment the ink hits the paper. The same banks that print our money have backed all of our enemies since world war one. Causing endless wars that have never caused change.

    Whether you agree with him 100% or not, show me another candidate that has more integrity. Show me another candidate that stands against the big banking system that runs this country. Show me another candidate that will get us out of the middle east. Show me someone who truly believes what he tells us. When you do, I'll take him under serious consideration.

    Because he doesn't think we should be interceding in every other nations affairs and engaging in nation building? (yea that's always worked out great) , and doesn't think we should be sacrificing our liberties to form a police state under the banner of protection from terrorists?

    Yeah, we've never done anything wrong that would cause another nation or group of people to hate us, ever.

    The top dog is always loathed, but don't worry we won't have that problem for much longer.

    I'm not saying we've never done anything wrong, but I will neither apologize for America's greatness nor will I blame it for the reason why most of the world hates us.
