You made the claim. He has denounced the letters, we know that he had other people writing them, his ideology benefits minorities more than any other republicans, he has the support of the NCAA president, and has stated that Rosa Parks and MLK are his heroes (really trying to get the white supremacist support there).

Unless you are going to post "what you have read" no point in even saying "what I've read says otherwise." For all I know you read it on godlike productions. Doesn't make it credible.

Because it would be counter intuitive for a man that is open to the possibility of running for congress and president to have something like that on his record and he isn't a stupid man by any means. There are racist people supporting every candidate.. guess what, just like the rest of them the majority of Ron Paul supporters are NOT racist and having racist ties would not help him. Of course everyone has a political opinion, even racists, and it always makes sense for racists to vote libertarian and candidate that supports constituionalism. Usually the reasons for that are freedom of speech and gun rights.

Don't try to spin it into something it's not. I am done with this thread though. Have a good day.

So much for freedom of speech, huh? This site is embarrassing.


Oh, I'm sorry, I must be confused as we are still discussing this thread right now, so, yeah, what exactly are you complaining about? The fact that it's a pointless thread that, going from the content, has already been done to death here.

In fact, this is a personal opinion thread and if anything, should be in the rant section, so I'd just get over this fantasy you guys have that ATS is censoring you.

That said......

I have to agree with the poster, if you don't trust him, don't vote for him. Personally, i think your distrust is based on misinformation, but your opinion is valid.

But don't think for a second we're gonna hold your hand or pat your back for spewing the same BS talking points fox emails out to people just like you. We disagree with your reasons, enough said.

Why all of this always has to end with cries of:

SHILLS
DISINFOAGENT
CENSORSHIP

Is just frigging rediculous.

and you only discuss one of them.


First, I find it telling that you would suggest you have 10 reasons when the 10th "reason" is simply a summation of the other 9.
Additionally, the closest thing you have here that resembles truth is your citation (not your interpretation) of the opensecrets.org record.
Your 1st is a purely non-scientific youtube vid created by someone with too much time on their hands. What credentials do they have in the field of detecting deception? What credentials do you have in said field? Furthermore, what makes you think that he isn't looking to his wife, or campaign manager, or some other person when he looks one way or the other?
Your 2nd suggests that RP would intentionally, and maliciously defraud the government over some travel expenses. Isn't it more plausible that if in fact there was double charging that, it was an honest mistake? Have you ever had to claim travel expenses, especially for government travel? It is not a simple process.
The headline of your third suggests that even you don't really believe the assertion when you apply question marks to the clearly unfounded accusation.
Your 4th suggests that RP has openly challenged the release of any record that is constitutionally required to determine his eligibility to be POTUS. A week contention at best.
Your 5th is bordering on the absurd. Once again, you take someone elses video (meant to show concern for the candidate) and attempt to apply some medical diagnosis of your own. Are you a neurologist or an MD skilled in diagnosing such things?
Your 6th is to cite the opinion of TYT? That's clearly an objective source.
Your 7th doesn't have ANY basis in truth and is pure speculation. Could you have at least provided some visual link to some family tree some where?
Your 8th has no basis in rationale thought just because someone may or may not be affiliated with the Bilderberg organization. This suggests that you buy into the conspiracy theory surrounding the organization (not that it's uncommon on this forum). Seriously though, I don't care. I do know that the individual in question was one of the founders of PayPal, a business that I've used in the past and trust.
your 9th is based purely on a lighter if not, ridiculous question about age and taking office during one of the debates. Paul suggested that he would release his medical records but that it would likely only be one page and then challenged the other candidates to a 25 mile bike ride in the heat of Texas as a testament to his health and level of fitness. Later, he pointed out that such questions about age are prohibited by law (age discrimination) when anyone seeks employment.

I'm not really sure why I took the time to reply to your cry for attention but, suffice it to say, not many here are going to buy into your drivel. Do us all a favor next time, and "research" something a little less important so that we might at least be entertained for our time spent reading your OP.

This is literally the dumbest thread ever created. I'm sorry, but there is no merit to any of it. Ron Paul wants to end the wars. That should be enough to vote him in. I don't care if he is in a relationship with a donkey. Do you understand what being in these pointless wars has done to this country????? Ron is the only candidate who wants to stop these pointless blood for profit wars. Wake the heck up man. You say you did research but you clearly know nothing. Worst thread ever.
