In fact, I am quite sure that you can't so I am not going to say it...
If you are tired of the Ron Paul Bandwagon, whatever that is, then don't get on it. Ridicule it if you want. Call us whatever you want. Join all of the others that just love the status quo that benefits the few at the expense of the many.
But if you think that dumb arse threads are going to get you points here, then you have underestimated the intelligence of ATS members, and you have drastically OVERESTIMATED your own.
Hopefully, this post is within the rules. This hasn't been a good weekend for TRUE patriots of the U.S.A.

Well kind sir, for one, i don't underestimate any one on this site and don't over estimate my own intelligence. My opinion on Paul is mine and any other sensible American's view. As you have seen, Paul has very little support anyway. So it's probably not even worth talking about. However; you can call me what you will, the fact that Paul wants to pull all troops away from all other countries and stay at home, hoping by not causing trouble or posing a threat other countries will follow-suit makes you a naive and over confident man. Paul's policy would be fine if other countries provided us the same respect. We all know they won't. They despise us simply for how we live and what we believe in as a country. It will never matter what we do, there's a few countries that will always look to bring us down. Paul only gives them "free time" to formulate and execute..... and yeah, I'm as Patriotic as they come, that's never in questions. Sorry your guy is losing...hopefully your week will be better....

Nonsense I say.
I want proof that you have more and better sources.
If I were to go after someone I would go all out as I'm sure you did here.
If you have more and better, I'm calling.
Let's see your cards, until then all you say is just misdirection.

Sorry Paul lovers, I just can't take seeing all this liberal and socialist Ron Paul support from within our country. I believe people hear one thing and one thing only and then they decide that is the candidate they will pick without thoroughly researching that candidate. Paul's foreign policy can not be in office.
That makes no sense...also his foreign policy is to respect the sovereignty of other nations...nothing wrong with that at all..if anything try it..just once.
That's just it...we can do that all day long...it's not a bad way to be...the problem is we know and can predict what other countries will do. they will not and do not feel the same way about us. So no matter what we do, they will be our enemies for nothing less that the way we live and what this country stands for. his policy would be fine if everyone else would fall in line.....but the sad fact is we know they won't. that's why we call them radicals

Last time I checked, our money and economic status is steady declining. As far as illuminati and aliens, that's not place for this thread...this thread is strictly on why paul can't be president. his foreign policy will leave us to open for attack. bottom line...other countries will not follow his kindred spirit and approachedit on 22-1-2012 by elevatedone because: (no reason given)

Haha Slayer I said the same thing in another thread! The same kind of reaction to Paul now as there was in 2008 over Obama. More of the same sweet nothings. He talks a good game but in practice words mean nothing. Ron Paul has been in Washington for how long? And wasn't it the last election with Mcain that we had to hear he was too old???? What about Paul being near 80? Just another cult of personality.

But if those supporters would have simply checked out Obama's campaign donations, they would have found that he was just another lying bobblehead banker puppet, unlike Ron Paul, who is uncorruptable.

Facts are facts. Obama got millions in donations from major financial institutions. Ron Pauls top donors are from members of the military. Obama is clearly corrupt, Ron Paul is not. Obama is pro-establishment, and Ron Paul is the opposite.
I kind of like the idea of peace. I'm sure the people over there watching people get killed and their friends die, the soldiers committing suicide in record numbers, the family members of soldiers overseas, and the hundreds of thousands of civilians who have lost family members as a result of our military actions would agree.
However; his foreign policy alone is unacceptable.
No we don't.
We can't allow that to happen because we know what the other countries will do.
Yes it is
It's not speculation
No it's not.
it's fact.
Maybe you didn't read what I said earlier, twice, but cutting militarism is not the same as cutting defense. Can you explain to me what part of that statement you don't understand, because it's clear that you either didn't read it or fail to understand what I am saying and what Ron Pauls stance on defense is.
If we fall under Paul's foreign policy, we will be vulnerable and weak.
Iraq and Hussein killed hundreds of thousands of their own people. i believe we went into iraq for different reasons, none of which were WMD or oil....but if you want to talk humanitarian reasons, hussein had to go. I could care less how old paul is...it's about his foregin policy and that he thinks other countries will respect us as he is wanting to respect them. it's ridiculous to think that's possible.

I agree there was more to Iraq then the wmd issue. I still am not convinced that there were not, if you recall Russian military "advisers" left Baghdad for Syria just ahead of the coalition invasion of the city. I think Paul's foreign policy is based on incorrect assumptions about foreign diplomacy.

Again no substance....you cant have it both ways...the WAR, not humanitarian effort, was not to stop an invasion of the US. Now did this war stabilize the region or better yet....what did it do for you.
We also have troops in NIGERIA....why? What is this doing for we the peopole....nothing.
