Ron Paul: Believer in 9/11 conspiracy theories. Wants to trim US$1tril off the Federal budget in one year, wants to exit NATO, wants an isolationist US, wants to cut foreign aid to zero, if it ain't the blacks that's causing all the probs then it's the jews, wants to end all federal forms of welfare and move them onto the states, pro home-schooling, anti abortion, wants prayer back in schools, wants to move all responsibility for education onto districts.....
Bangs on endlessly about "big government", yet the US hasn't got that many more public servants (federal, state and local) that here and we have 1/15th the population.
Hardcore cheer material for Tea Party nutters, but I don't buy it.
Ok, I'll call it.....
A nutjob.
Time to get schooled by someone who actually knows what he’s talking about!
1. Ron Paul does not believe in 911 conspiracy theories.. He believes that the US foreign policy prompted its enemies to attack them.
2. The US is in roughly 15 trillion dollars of debt which is unpayable at current levels of spending. Cutting a trillion from the budget is what any responsible president would do and in fact it is probably not even enough.
3. NATO serves no purpose because they act as the US army anyway.. They are also responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent people.
4. Please stop using msm terms such as isolationist unless you can tell us how.
5. Foreign aid is a flawed system.. As he says its ‘takes money from the poor in the US and gives it to the rich in the 3rd world’ which is true. He wants to fix the problems that make these countries poor rather then throw money at the issue which does not help.
6. He is not racist and I would like you to prove that he is.. Those newsletters weren’t even written by him and were not seen by him for decades after they were made.
7. Once again he aims to fix the problems rather then throw money at the result of the problems. Like preventing the cancer rather than curing it.
8. Once again it’s all following the constitution which is LAW in America.
9. He is not for prayer in schools
10. By districts you mean states and that is how America is meant to operate. Now the states have no power and he wants to change that so the people actually have a say rather then living in a dictatorship.
