I'm with Ron Paul all the way. Hes the only politician not in it for himself IMO.

I don't know how much of a revolution it is. He's raised millions in the last four years and still hasn't won a primary.
Revolution is the goal. Since his libertarian views deviate so far from the mainstream, it's unlikely he ever will win a primary, although he got a lot closer this time than in 2008. But at least it gives him publicity and the opportunity to get his ideas to the public.

I mean if that's considered a revolution, then what's it considered of the candidates that actually win primaries and get elected?
Business as usual.

In other words, more government overspending, waste, inefficiency, pork-barrel politics, and interference and intervention in personal and private sector affairs and the economy; more taxes, warmongering, censorship, and suppression of personal liberties and human rights; bigger, more intrusive federal government; and a continuation of ecomomic recession, soaring national debt, mass unemployment, inflation, the devaluation of the dollar, and the decline of American excellence among world nations.

He has shown signs of insanity In his past and many psychologist say he is probably not mentally healthy.
I may of read this wrong, did you just call me a liar?
There is a distinction to be made between lying, slander, and bearing false witness. As you can see from my post, I only mentioned the latter two.

Certainly, if he is in fact insane and mentally unhealthy then your claim would be neither slander nor false witness. On the other hand, if he is not, then it would obviously be both.

Since he is neither, the latter applies.

In any case, I'm well aware that a lot of people strongly disagree with his political views (just as many strongly agree with them), but this kind of personal attack, unless you are prepared to present some kind of real evidence, is uncalled for.

Several really good people have told me this that I know to be very trustworthy.
Good, honest, trustworthy people are still quite often wrong. This is where we get the idea of hearsay, gossip, and the like. This is not a personal attack against you. No doubt I have made the same sort of mistake myself on many occasions. But ultimately only the facts decide the truth, and facts are known by evidence.

Its funny how many people say he doesn't support israel. He has made his stance clear concerning Israel on multiple occasions. He is very pro-zionist, and even Netenyahu supports his stand on foreign policy.

He is my personal choice.

I still think if Israel goes to war we should be the first to help. We shouldn't worry about our own country when it fines to Israel.

Considering the dismal state of our economy, national debt, and unemployment, perhaps we should concern ourselves with supporting our own citizens before electing politicians who donate billions to foreign countries. We have no financial obligation to Israel, nor for that matter any foreign nation.
Haha agreed. And not only that but didn't we just find out that Israel was spying on us last year?

Perhaps this will get the anti-pauls thinking Armed Chinese Troops in Texas! - YouTube

I think we should be the first to help, IF ASKED. The thing with the USA though, is that we tend to just insert ourselves into everyone's problems. I would say israel is primarily a Zionist nation. One of the main foundations of zionism is having an INDEPENDENT Jewish state.

In all reality, we don't support isaral fiscaly speaking all that much. Israel is one of the largest agricultural capitosl of the world. There have also been numerous technological break throughs conducted in Tel Aviv over the years; making them key players in the tech realm.

In the coming years i could definately see us becoming more relient on israel, then them on us.

There is no distinction... And I didn't say he was I said he showed signs, it's speculation, and I didn't mean completely just a little off. Sorry for being so unclear, and also watch the way you type, some people might accidentally read it as offensive.

Regarding anti-Jew and anti-israel, Ron Paul is certainly not. American's for Israel has good things to say about this:
Americans For Israel | The Logical Approach To A Stronger And More Secure Land Of Israel

He simply wants all foreign funding to stop. Currently we give more money to Israel's enemies than to Israel. He has also never made any racist speeches or comments. The most common one brought up was a ghost writer who wrote in the name of Ron Paul and hated on blacks. It was not only not Ron's style, but contradictory to his actions. He has even helped black families and given birth to many children of many races.

So yeah, way teh go Ron! :-D
