If Ron Paul wins, the terrorists win...?
Why did the terrorists attack us 9/11? To stop the spread of democracy and western influence in the world. If Ron Paul is elected that is exactly what will happen. I know I will only get nut job RP supporters answering this with their "civil liberties" crap but understand this, Ron Paul will lead to destruction of this nation and this nation will fail because everyone wants to be able to do whatever the hell they want. There is not enough education for Americans to have total "civil liberties." You blind followers of Ron Paul will ruin this nation and quite frankly you deserve what ever happens to you.

Ron Paul does not have a chance. Most people even those who hate the thought of war have enough sense to realize we must maintain a strong presence in the world and you can not cut our military budget as much as he plans. I agree he has some good ideas, but his bad ideas out weigh the good. The only way I would vote for him is if I only have the choice of him or the NUT JOB we have now. But I would vote for a smart 3rd grader over Obama so that is'nt saying much.

regrettably, like considered one of those good style of others you're lacking what Ron Paul is asserting. he's asserting that our distant places coverage undermines our nationwide protection. additionally, after 9/11 he stated granting letters of marque to get those responsible. yet because of the fact the media began hitting the patriotic drum, President Bush became into aloud to bypass on an endless conflict that wasted hundreds of people lives which has delivered not something yet many years of tensions and resentment, and a clean technology of Islamist who will attack u.s.. Ron Paul's reaction to bypass get those responsible instead of going on a conquest would have been irresponsible? So bankrupting the country, dropping hundreds of yank lives, coming up a clean technology of Islamist who will hate people, and killing tens of hundreds of civilians in distant places lands in the approach is responsible? i'm sorry, yet, i don't see how going quickly on the source that brought about the attack, as Ron Paul would've finished, as being irresponsible.

"Why did the terrorists attack us 9/11? To stop the spread of democracy and western influence in the world."
So you don't think it had anything to do with the fact that our troops were stationed in Saudi Arabia, we propped up dictators like Mubarak in the Middle East, we gave weapons to Israel who killed many Palestinian civilians, and we allowed the oppression of many Arabs by Arab monarchies as long as we had access to their oil?
If it was really about the "spread of democracy and western influence", why didn't Al-Qaeda attack Sweden or Norway, two very liberal and free nations?

The terrorists attacked us because of our involvement in the Gulf War. I understand your concern but if you're seriously interested in knowing what Ron Paul really has to say on the issue, please take a look at this video:

Ron Paul would be better for America than the Communist America-Hating Obama.
(And..... I'm no Ron Paul Supporter.)

*face palm* Maybe you should take into consideration of why they attack the United States in the first place.

Give peace a chance.
I'm sorry but you are completely wrong. And if tradition holds, you don't want to be right. You want to fight. Correction: you want others to fight while you watch and dictate to them what they fight about.

little do you know about 9/11.
perhaps you should do a little research on who, in america, benefited financially from 9/11
