BILL NELSON AND OBAMA ALL THESE LIBERALS RADICALS NEED TO GO
BEFORE AN AMERICAN REVOLUTION PUTS THEM OUT.
Once again, here is another example of media and insider slant and BIAS. Immaterial whether one supports or does not support Ron Paul, he is statistically a front-runner and yet the media totally ignores his candidacy. He doesn’t exist as far as they are concerned; this is no accident. The insiders do not want Ron Paul as a viable candidate, so they are going to smear or ignore him at every opportunity. This is so the voting public is ignorant about anyone other than the candidate(s) the media and insiders support.
RON PAUL IS A DOPE. DOES NOT EVEN BELONG IN CONGRESS. GO BACK TO BEING A DOCTOR. THE SOONER HE IS GONE THE BETTER.
Before fascism goes to sleep it looks under the bed for Ron Paul.
“I pledge to veto any unbalanced budget and to balance the Federal budget in the first year of my term. I will fight to reduce taxes and remove unconstitutional regulations so that businesses can hire, Americans can get back to work, and our economy can truly recover.” –Ron Paul

The quickest way to get OUR Government back in line with the Constitution and the Freedoms and Rights it documents is by electing Ron Paul president!
RON is REAL! You can count on him to tell the truth, abide by the Constitution and do what he says he will do. (That should be RP’s slogan.)
Ron Paul is EXACTLY what WE THE PEOPLE are looking for from OUR President! He has held the same positions for over 30 years, so we know we can count on him to continue. He never seeks to impose his beliefs on anyone else by force, he leads LAWFULLY by the Constitution and by example. He weighs EVERY policy decision he makes against the Constitution and legislates equally, fairly, justly and lawfully every time. He caters to no corporate master nor any group whatsoever, EXCEPT WE THE PEOPLE, both as individuals and as a whole.
The good news is, NOW MORE PEOPLE ARE LISTENING and WE THE PEOPLE are noticing just how right Ron Paul is, despite the corporate owned lamestream media doing everything they can to quiet his Constitutional voice! Check out this video about Ron Paul’s 2008 presidential campaign, he was right then and he still is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG2PUZoukfA
It was Ron Paul supporters that started the Tea Party, the largest BIPARTISAN grassroots political movement in the entire history of the USA, every other candidate that claims to be a TP candidate is only following RP’s lead. “Ron Paul planted that grass!” The Tea Party IS the Ron Paul REVOLUTION!
Ron Paul has NEVER voted to raise taxes, NEVER voted for an unbalanced budget, NEVER voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership, NEVER taken a government paid junket, NEVER voted to increase the power of the executive branch. He voted AGAINST the so called Patriot Act. He voted AGAINST regulating the internet. He voted AGAINST the war in Iraq. He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. HE RETURNS A PORTION OF HIS ANNUAL CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE BUDGET TO THE U.S. TREASURY EVERY YEAR. He does NOT support raising our debt and making us and our children slaves to our creditors. He will bring the troops home and end the undeclared and unconstitutional wars we are fighting across the globe. He will end unconstitutional, wasteful and unproductive Federal departments and return Constitutional authority to the States and the People, where it belongs. We don’t have a revenue problem we have a spending problem and a Federal Government that acts far more like a kid with a credit card than responsible representatives of the People and the Constitution.
There is a reason they call Ron Paul “Dr. No” in Congress, he won’t go along with the waste, loss of rights and freedoms, nation building, unconstitutional wars and host of other Federal actions that are contrary to the will of the People and the Constitution.
Romney needs to get “excited”. Needs to “fire up the electorate.” Also, he appears too aloof and his extreme wealth could separate him from the rank and fire Republicans. On the other hand, other than Huntsman, he is the only “statesman” in the field.
First off, Ron Paul is not a front runner. At this point, Romney, Perry and Bachmann clearly have separated themselves from the pack. 3,000 activists voting in a staw poll does not constitute wide spread appeal. Paul is consistently polling in the 9% range. Get over it fruitcakes.
Now Obama and Nelson are getting their due. These numbers at this point indicate landslide. A sitting president and senator should be polling 15 or 20 points ahead with no clear opponents yet. Nobody is drinking the hope & change kool-aide anymore. There is no hope and the change sucks. Bye bye Obama 2012!
A message to the media political controlers. You can pretend he is not there, but he is. Time is on Ron Paul’s side. It just takes time for the couch people to hear the good news that R P has to offer and understand that he does have a chance and will be successful. Once the rest of the Couch Potatoes wake up from their self induced non caring slumber and start learning these things that really matter, then You guys will be forced to include Dr Paul in your one sided opinions.
AS I SAID BEFORE RON PAUL IS A DOPE.AND I THINK YOU ARE NOT A REPUBLICAN. THE SOONER YOU AND YOUR BUDDY ARE GONE THE BETTER.
All this poll does is motivate me. Even though Michele Bachmann is not doing good now, I am optimistic that she will win. I will fight hard for her election, with God’s help.
I WAS a Ron Paul fan until the last debate. My jaw hit the floor with his comments concerning Iran. It showed either he doesn’t have enough time to read intel reports and/or his staff doesn’t OR he is delusional. I want to opt with the former because I think he’s an honorable man. HOWEVER,If you’re in a store with your best friend and a wild man walks in with a real gun and says he wants to annihilate everyone in it, do you a) figure his gun is empty and he’s just kidding or b) take cover leaving your friend standing alone with his gun or c) pull out your 457 and blow his gun out of his hand? Ron Paul opts for a,b & “D”, never enter the store with your friend in the first place and watch through the window as he gets shot. (and then wonder why the guy turns around and shoots you right through the glass!)
Iran is shipping machinery and people to Venezuela through Caracas Air without any checks (thanks Hugo). Iran has missiles that can reach the US from Venezuela. They also have missiles that can reach Israel from Iran. Granted, said missiles aren’t quite accurate, yet, but all they need is time. After all, Iran has China & Russia helping them. They have nuclear material. And fighters. Ask our navy pilots (my hubby being one), if he thinks they don’t have some air power. Ha! Old “Achmed” (love Jeff Dunham)says he wants to annihilate the Great Satan (us) and the little Satan (Israel). But, it’s ok, he’s just playing, nothing to be worried about. It’s not like Israel is standing there the size of R.I. without any friends around to help…it’s not like its surrounded by other countries that hate them, right? I mean Israel has weapons, so it’s ok for 10 against one, right?
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and our other founders would not have taken this line. Read their letters. There is a difference between staying out of others’ business and doing the right thing. With that said, I do NOT want to attack Iran, but if they’re counting down to a launch and Israel says, hey, brother can you help? I say, yes, let’s help them take out all their nuclear facilities. And then we go home. We do need to get out of 90% of the countries we’re in, but some bells can’t be unrung, so it’s too late to leave everywhere.
For someone that doesn’t want to attack Iran, you could have fooled me! Did you miss the part where Ron Paul explained WHY Iran is against us? We overthrew their Government and installed a vicious dictator in Iran… before that Iran never did anything against us. Israel has over 300 nukes, far more than anyone else in the area. Why do WE have to protect Israel or any other Country while our borders are wide open and our Government claims they don’t have the funds and manpower to protect US? You picktd out one thing that you are completely WRONG about and use that as a reason not to vote for the most freedom supporting, Constitution respecting candidate in the entire race? Ron Paul is easily the most well read and well educated candidate in this entire race. Everyone else represents more of the same old war mongering, police state and welfare state we’ve had for decades.
Do you folks really believe that Michelle Bachman would be a good president? You’ve got to be kidding, right??
Find our how much money SHE sucks up from the government in farm subsidies. Her husband takes money from the government for his homosexual conversion camp. These folks are scammers.
They will tell you what you want to hear and then if lucky enough to win, sell you out to the highest bidders.
Hey Rich STFU. Your president is the worst in history. He called Bush unpatriotic for running a 4 trillion debt in 8 years on the stump. Then he goes and matches that feat in 2-1/2 years. Your a blithering idiot.
Perry is a “maintain the status quo”, “tell em what they want to hear, get their vote and do what my crooked, Constitution ignoring, corporate sponsors say” politician. He’s the epitome of EXACTLY the type of politician WE THE PEOPLE are FIRING at every opportunity. Nothing could make this more clear than his well documented public record.
Consider Perry’s oil company sponsors and his unjustified pro-corporate-oil positions while the Gulf of Mexico was being flooded with oil BECAUSE of an incompetent negligent oil company. Perry actually said the Gulf Oil Disaster was an act of God, rather than pointing out truthfully that it was completely preventable and 100% CAUSED by BP’s negligence.
On February 2, 2007, Perry issued an executive order mandating that young TX girls receive the HPV vaccine. The order provided vaccinations at taxpayer expense for those who were not covered by insurance. On February 22, 2007 a group of families sued to block Perry’s executive order. Financial connections between Merck (the vaccine’s producer) and Perry, such as a $6,000 campaign contribution, were well documented and heavily reported by national news agencies. Merck was bankrolling efforts to pass laws in State legislatures across the Country, mandating the mandatory vaccination of young girls with Merck’s vaccine. Merck hired former Perry Chief of Staff Mike Toomey to facilitate its TX lobbying efforts. Perry’s executive order was criticized by social conservatives and parents because of health risks to the children and due to moral concerns. Perry’s order was also criticized because of the price of the vaccine, roughly $360.00, in Texas. Rick Perry actually issued an executive order that would have forced almost every single girl in the state of TX to receive the Gardasil vaccine before entering the sixth grade. Perry would have put parents in a position where they had to fill out an application and beg the government for permission not to inject their child with a very questionable possibly harmful vaccine. Since then, serious safety issues regarding this vaccine have come to light. On May 9, 2007, a bill abolishing Perry’s executive order became law. This is a perfect example of a politician run amok. Perry thinks the Government owns the people and has the right to force unnecessary, unwanted, expensive, quite possibly harmful or even deadly, corporate profit promoting tyranny on We The People.
No one should forget that Perry recently let an overwhelmingly popular bill in TX die, which would have reigned in the unconstitutional TSA searches / porn pictures and groping of travelers. Perry is a same old same old, status quo politician but with an evolved unconstitutional boldness that must not be tolerated. The LAST thing the USA needs is another president that so closely mirrors George Bush and who also worked for Al Gore! Perry was elected Lieutenant Governor of Texas in 1998, then became Governor in 2000, when George W. Bush resigned as TX’s Governor to become one of the most Constitution ignoring President’s in US history, EXACTLY the kind of politician WE THE PEOPLE must NEVER allow in the Oval Office again.
For President in 08, Perry first endorsed Rudy (I had no idea why we were attacked on 911 until Ron Paul explained it to me in the 08 debates) Giuliani. Later, Perry supported John (extreme war monger, illegal immigration flip flopper, you’re a “hobbit” if you don’t want to borrow more) McCain. In 1988 Perry supported Al Gore and was CHAIRMAN OF THE GORE CAMPAIGN in Texas. In December 2010, when asked if he was a “definite maybe” to run for President in 2012, he replied, “a definite no brother”. He should have stuck to his position. Perry hasn’t figured out that the People are fed up with EVERYTHING he represents! We want less Government, no unconstitutional wars and only CONSTITUTIONALLY compliant, fiscally responsible Government, instead of war mongering, flip flopping politicians OWNED by crooked corporations.
Rick Perry is a “big government” politician. When Rick Perry became the Governor of Texas in 2000, the total spending by the TX Government was approximately $49 billion, ten years later it was approximately $90 billion.
The debt to GDP ratio in Texas is 22.9%. In California (a total financial train wreck), the debt to GDP ratio is just 18.7%.
The total debt of the Texas government has more than doubled since Rick Perry became Governor.
Rick Perry has spearheaded the effort to lease roads in Texas to foreign companies, to turn roads that are already free to drive on into toll roads, and to develop the Trans-Texas Corridor which would be part of the planned NAFTA superhighway system. Do some research on the Trans-Texas Corridor and you’ll quickly see why no Patriotic American that wants the US to retain its sovereignty should ever cast a vote for Rick Perry.
Rick Perry claims that he has a “track record” of not raising taxes. That is a false claim. Rick Perry has repeatedly raised taxes and fees while he has been Governor.
23 states have a lower unemployment rate than Texas does.
Texas now has one of the worst education systems in the nation. TX ranks 36th in the Nation in high school graduation rates, 49th in verbal SAT scores, 47th in literacy, 46th in average math SAT scores, 33rd in the Nation on teacher salaries.
Rick Perry attended the Bilderberg Group meetings in 2007, associating with that organization should be a red flag for all American voters!
Texas has the highest percentage of workers making minimum wage out of all 50 states. In 2007, 221,000 residents of Texas were making minimum wage or less -by 2010 that number had risen to 550,000.
Rick Perry often gives speeches about illegal immigration but he has been incredibly weak on the issue. Illegal immigration is devastating much of the southwestern United States.
Rick Perry has a record that should make every American cringe. He is not the “conservative Republican” that he is trying to claim that he is.
If Rick Perry was to get elected, he‘ll probably be an extremist cross between George W. Bush and Al Gore with extreme left and extreme right qualities completely lacking in Constitutional or rational principals. He will astronomically increase the size and scope of the US Government and its debt, he will find underhanded ways to raise taxes, he will do nothing about the Federal Reserve, getting us back to sound money, or corruption in our financial system, he will push the agenda of globalists and crooked corporations at every opportunity. Considering the Constitution before he acts will never cross his mind. He’ll be all about what’s in it for him and his corporate owners.
Perry hates big “guberment”? Look and SEE:

The American people have been asleep at the switch for far too long. We have sent incompetents, con men, charlatans, war mongers, whoremongers, crooks and liars to Washington DC for decades. End that trend in 2012, vote for Ron Paul.
Romney is just another big government, corporation financed, Constitution ignoring, neocon. Let’s not forget that Ron Paul had to tell Romney to “read the Constitution” in the 2008 debates, after Romney was asked a very basic Constitutional question about whether the president needs to consult Congress before going to war: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibJfK1XfY8w Mitt Romney is fiat paper, Ron Paul is solid gold. Romney’s money didn’t get him nominated in 08 and it won’t in 2012 because he doesn’t have a sound platform. No Constitution respecting American is going to forget that Obamacare is based on a Romney model or that Romney is anti-gun. Romney’s stances are not based on principles. He’ll say whatever it takes to get your vote, after that, he obeys his corporate masters regardless of the People or the Constitution. Can you even consider supporting someone who is: pro-choice, pro-life, pro-2nd-amendment, pro-gun-control, both for and against socialized medicine, for and against the bailouts, for and against mandates? — if you don’t like Romney’s position just wait an hour and it will change!
Bachmann voted FOR the unconstitutional misnamed Patriot Act and she just voted to renew it again. She claims to be a Tea Party candidate but her voting record says she is a neocon war monger. You can’t support the Constitution and vote FOR the Patriot Act! She’s right on a few issues that she patterns after Ron Paul’s lead but she’s wrong on too much to make her the right choice. Check out politifact. Bachmann answered 30 questions. She only answer one truthfully; 2 were mostly true, 2 where half true, of the other 25, 5 were mostly false, 13 were false, and 7 were so bad that she got a rating of “pants on fire”… and some people want her to be President? She lies 83% of the time.
With Ron Paul the answer is: “Read the Constitution”, now what’s your question?
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. -Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here.” -Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.” -Sen. Barack Obama, 2006
Exactly Right Mr. Obama! It’s a disgrace that you have such low principals and you deceived the people that voted for you in such a blatant manner! We do deserve better and Ron Paul is the right man, with the right plan.
