Thanks, OP, for this thread. Its such off-the-wall pseudo-religious theme has brought revealing responses from ATSers that now give me insight into
their thinking - good for future reference to evaluate the nature of their later comments.
Why be so disingenuous, OP? You claim to have little knowledge of US political issues, that's obvious, but you certainly have strong opinions and
pre-conceived notions about this nevertheless. All that is made obvious by your first two or three posts in this thread.
Ron Paul continually votes and speaks on principles consistent with traditional and Constitutional American values. That sets him apart from the
Capitol crowd. The current GOP line-up of contenders are all run-of-the-mill stuffed-shirts - though I give Gary Johnson some additional credit, while
Barry-O has proven himself largely a fraud. These folks will be good string puppets for the elite and continue taking us down our present road - which
appears to be that dreaded path of which you speak. We do need a new direction or at least a re-direction back to Constitutional values. If Paul can
deliver in the White House in a manner consistent with his record it is likely to put us back on a better path than we have been travelling, while any
of the others offer little if any hope beyond our status quo.
It is certainly doubtful Paul can secure the nomination, the controlling elite do not favor the direction he might take us. If by some miracle Paul
does get elected but fails to carry out his agenda it is doubtful he would damage the nation any worse than the others would likely be expected to do.
If Paul should fail as President it would be because the course is already pre-destined and little could be done to thwart the elitists' global
agenda. We are already on a runaway train.
The only thing working in our favor right now is that the elitist agenda has become so obvious that even the most passive of the herd is becoming
alert to an impending danger. Even the most gullible are now aware they are being conned. For that little bit of awakening we may have a chance to
avoid a slaughter.
Is Paul the answer to our problems? It's possible. Is Paul the best possible candidate? Quite likely. Is Paul the "Anti-Christ"? I'm not sure what
that is and have doubts such a being exists outside a fertile imagination. Would Paul avert some sort of christian apocalypse and immanentizing of
that eschaton? Sorry, I'm not a subscriber and I doubt Paul is either.
