Who is a better human being fit for president?
One who accepts support from his fellow country men and women no matter who they are.
Or one who incites hatred towards minorities (homosexuals).
The truth of the matter is romney, gingrich, bachman, santorum and pretty much every other candidate so far EXCEPT for ron paul, has made crude remarks about people who are attracted to the same sex.
I'm sure if a branch of the KKK group all voted for... lets say mitt romney. It wouldn't even make the news.
MSM scraping the barrel for slander.

And those are just two of the reasons I would never vote for Ron Paul.
I suggest you READ the newletters you are referring to, if you believe Paul wrote them or not, you should at least READ what they actually say, and he's explained his stance on affirmative action and equal rights in several interviews.
you are basing your view on a distortion of what was actually said.

Yes and support.
the Newsletters in question. He said Ron Paul knew exactly what was in those newsletters because he read/reviewed and approved each one. He said - - he did not believe Ron Paul himself was racist - - but Ron knew who his core base was - - and intentionally solicited to them for money and support.
I have the right not to support Ron Paul. However - this is not my main concern with Ron Paul. My concern is his push for state rights.

His push for state rights is insane to me as well. I can't get on board with half of what he supports. Look at how many state are already violating there own constitutions with new laws and amendments. I do believe that the Federal Government bullies State governments way to much to but when states take hand outs from the Federal government then they should expect it.
I don't think we will ever see a balance between state and federal government. Not in my lifetime.
