So, it looks as though we have Ron Paul set to be a legitimate candidate to win the Republican primary.

But what if he does win the primary?

With NDAA passing, the military can arrest anybody with only a suspicion of being terrorists. They can be held indefinitely and without trial.

But, here's the kicker: What's one of ways to identify potential terrorists? Voting for people like Ron Paul.

This is how we could instantly have millions of people in the U.S. declared as terrorists and rounded up.

How can voting be construed as a terrorist act? How can checking a preprinted box on an approved ballot be terrorism?

Let's not make demons where none exist. Who knows, maybe they're use it lock up some Wall Street criminals, lobbyists and politicians.

The only trap in voting for Ron Paul is conservatives splitting their vote (yet again) and letting the Obama's enjoy 4 more years of White House parties and tax payer funded vacations.

How would they identify people that voted for Ron Paul? Around here, votes are cast in private and no one is required to say who they voted for. I honestly don't see any way it could happen.

This whole Ron Paul thing is the media's John McCain..The media and their 'leftwing' organization's are pushing hard for Ron on all internet sites and through the media in hopes of gaining support for him ..because ,like McCain ,they know he's the only one Obama can defeat.
Will people be stupid enough to fall for this 'sleazy' play again?

Well, certainly, there is always a risk that a politician will say one thing to appeal to a certain group of voters and then get in office and do the exact opposite of what he said. There's no law against lying to people to win their votes. In fact, that's just the kind of speech that is most protected by the U.S. Constitution. Political lies and distortions.

However, the biggest worry is not that the person in office will do the exact opposite of what they say, it's that they'll just become the same kind of political hack that is already there. That they'll pretend to make changes, but then explain that they just don't have the backing from the rest of Congress, and they'll just become the same dull, ordinary politician as everybody else. Wiling away their time rather than getting anything done. Allowing their business cronies to snag those big government contracts and walk out of the Treasury with their pockets full.

I'm a cynic, so that's what I see happening. Just the same old song and dance. Same old pen full of hogs bellying up to the trough. Bless you younger people and your idealism. I think you're idiots.
