No, you can't vote for Ron Paul. You see, if you vote for him and not Obama, you are deemed "racist."
That person is a sock puppet or some other variation of a troll. He or she is pretending to be a Republican.
I'm not making his service to the nation an issue. I would never impugn or question his service to the nation.

He has my vote. It's tiring to see anti-Paul activist spew their mindless ad hominem accusations as to why he's unfit to be president. I've heard people call him racist, anti-semitic, too old, and "crazy". Very rarely do I hear somebody actually criticize him for his policies and when they do it's usually a gross distortion of what the man represents. You CAN'T refute 20-30 years of consistent voting records. Nearly every policy he stands on, I agree with; more so than any other candidate by a large margin. If you like freedom and liberty vote Ron Paul. If you like endless wars, having the highest incarceration rate in the world, and a decaying constitution that's headed towards a fascist, totalitarian state, vote one of the other candidates.

I am not going to move back to Russia, if Ron Paul wins, because I find current US politics and ideas of freedom very disappointing/depressing.
Thanks, I will; found this message board and I like it so far. =} You just proved the point I made in my last (first) post.
I never get why people wouldn't support Ron Paul. He's the Thomas Jefferson of our day. Oh and for all you Ron Paul supporters, check this out. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Grassroots-for-Ron-Paul/210408885656215?ref=ts
Ron Paul has some extremist positions that many mainstream Republicans/Conservatives could not support and that the media would use to portray Ron as an out-of-touch kook; his stances on Afghanistan and Iraq, his stance on the Fed and his stance on the gold standard. Whether or not Ron is right and mainstream wrong, the media will take any fringe candidate and use the Sarah Palin strategy on them to promote the idiot idea that the Democrats are mainstream and in the middle politically.
So ..in the most narrow sense of the world..You follow the status quo and jump off the cliff like the rest of the lemmings..or you stay on land and get eaten by the snakes? I prefer a better way..electing a professional economy based politician to fix something that everyone else has broke.A seasoned experienced person who HAS done that before several times while others debate the constitution this and Mormon that. Wonder why ? That's all they got. So when you see the haters posting he is a Rhino this.. liar that..take a closer look ..try reading. Something the Beck tea person guru said to do..before the sheep started grazing on empty promises.. There can be only 1 Romney..and yes.. Pawlenty OR Perry for the 2nd spot...It wouldn't matter. The President would already know what to fix and how to do it. and CORN promises for Iowa farmers for their precious ethanol crapola for your cars..and BORN Again pledges wont create jobs..solve our debt or bring a divided nation together .. IOWA doesn't matter.. Either does Religion for judging a politicians worth for office either.
