Ron Paul offers to bring change and reform to this country. Everyone should be listening.


Ron Paul offers to bring change and reform to this country. More people should be listening.


That change and reform is not what we need right now.
We need a strong leader who is not afraid to keep some things the same. Paul would change the way just about everythign is done in this country.

What good would electing Ron Paul do for this country?


Ron Paul tirelessly works for limited constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, and a return to sound monetary policies. He has also acted to protect the lives of Americans by his adherence to the doctrine of ???just war.??? This doctrine, as articulated by Augustine, suggested that war must only be waged as a last resort--- for a discernible moral and public good, with the right intentions, vetted through established legal authorities (a constitutionally required declaration of the Congress), and with a likely probability of success.
He is running for president to restore the rule of law and to stand up for our divinely inspired Constitution. He has never voted for legislation that is not specifically authorized by the Constitution. As president, he will never sign a piece of legislation, nor use the power of the executive, in a manner inconsistent with the limitations that the founders envisioned.


WOAH! Divinely inspired Constitution? Are you trying to say that we should go back to the "divine right" of rule?
The War you are impling was approved by Congress, as required by the Constitution and the War Powers Resolution. The "Just War" doctrine was, a LOT more recently, asserted by the Catholic Bishops in the US. Just so you know, it wasn't Augustine. There is a seperation of Church and State for a reason. It actually justifies the War on Terror: "Force may be used only to correct a grave, public evil, i.e., aggression or massive violation of the basic human rights of whole populations." What do you call threatening the free world and killing hundreds of civilians for no better reason than they do not like our freedom?
What legislation has not been recognized by the Constitution and is in effect today? By questioning that one would be questioning the integrity of our court system.
Any specific examples, pieces of legislation that you base your opinion on, or is it just your thoughts? I have not seen one argument as to why the American People should vote for him.


I withdraw my argument.

Ron Paul wants to get rid of the IRS. This would result in the loss of countless jobs. How does he plan to make up for the loss of jobs?

There wasn't a real argument in the first place.
