Of course you would never say Ron Paul's support comes from the pro-Constitutional voting blocks.
You don't seem to have thought through what the real implications of his extreme Constitutionalism would be.
And I'll tell you right now, the Constitution would be followed.

I have thought it through many times since I am one of the minority groups that very constitution refused rights from. I am not really all that interested in going back to a time when I cannot vote or own land.

That graph is over 2 months old, before Santorum and Gingrich dropped out of the race. How is Paul polling now that it's only he and Romney?

Did the Constitution specifically deny you the right to own land?

The Constitution doesn't confer or withhold rights from anyone. It only protects rights we have as human beings from infringement by the government.

I've stated it numerous times that I do agree with Paul on certain issues but he's DEAD WRONG on so many. The guy lacks a lot of qualifications to be our president and that's just the way it is.
Most of his support comes from his anti-war, anti-Fed "liberty" rhetoric. Most of his supporters don't seem to have thought through what the real implications of his extreme libertarianism would be.

Exactly. His fan base is attracted to his anti war policies along with pro legalization of marijuana. They fail to realize his other ideas are dangerous and insane.

Things are bad.
That is a reason to elect Ron Paul?
That is how Hitler got elected.
What Ron Paul can do to make things better would be reasons to vote for Ron Paul. Pointing out that they suck does nothing to argue for or against him at all.

So I guess your think the current state of this country is just Peachy.
Lets just follow the path were on for another 4, 8 years.
By then we'll be what, maybe 20, 25 trillion in debt, paying interest on it with numbers most
countries would love to have as a GNP.
The current push to a more Police minded State with less and less Liberties, ya those Paul folks
sure are delusional.

This isn't even coherent.
2)so basically you are saying that, in your mind, the only way to pursue legal action on something is to A)file a suit yourself or B)file a civil suit? Interesting.
No...not all. "Basically what I'm saying" is exactly what I've already said. Now, please Counselor...answer the question like a big boy. What sort of vaguely defined "legal action" do you advise?
ITs not coherent that "constitutional lawyer" is a perfectly recognized TYPE of lawyer, complete with its own EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS?
Well, if you cant get that, Id say we are done here. Its not worth trying to debate someone who is all about personal attacks, ad homs and comments about others intelligence when they cannot simply admit they are wrong about something as trivial as this.

Of the remaining candidates, which ones will continue us on the current path, which you call bad.
Which one wants to steer away from the status quo.
Thats why.

The government, one of limited, enumerated powers, cannot abridge the rights of the citizens, especially those protected by the constitution, and the Bill of Rights. The rights of the citizens were further safeguarded by the addition of the fourteenth amendment.
So, if you do not belong to such a group, the citizens of the united states, why do our politics concern you, and how would the government be able to abridge your own rights, unless you're an illegal alien, or are you under the impression that things aren't currently stacked in the colored person's favor, as you are apparently not a white person.
Before you pull the race card and try to call me a biased white man, I'll have you know that I'm Samoan, and that I and my rights are treated with the same level of respect as any white man.
