During his Thursday radio program, Glenn Beck said that if the 2012 election were taking place today, Michele Bachmann would be his first pick for President of the United States.
Following rules that he himself set, Beck said he would only choose from candidates who have officially entered the ring. He also places emphasis on candidates who stick to their principles. With that in mind, Bachmann is Beck’s first choice, however, Rick Santorum is a close runner up:
“Michele Bachmann is no lightweight,” Beck said. “Neither is Rick Santorum. Neither one of them are going to give on their principles.”
Beck, who has interviewed Bachmann on a multitude of occasions, once even stated that he thinks Bachmann should run as Florida Rep. Allen West’s vice presidential nominee.
Beck believes they would also be well equipped to defend America from the havoc the Obama administration might wreak if it loses in 2012.
“I firmly believe that race riots are on the way,” Beck said. “They are being encouraged…[the Obama administration] will take this country down. If it looks like they are losing, the uber left, they will take it down. If I can’t have it, no one will.”
Beck also stated that Romney would “decimate” Obama moving into 2012 in addition to the former Massachusetts governor being able to secure backing from Wall Street.

Glenn Beck supports Bachman though she is for more Government
Glenn Beck supports Santorum though he is for more Government.
Both, Michelle and Rick, are for using financial and military to spread democracy throughout the World.
This by definition is NEO-Con.
Glenn Beck isn’t Libertarian. If he were and stood on his principle he would support jerk Rick and phony Michelle. Supporting NEO-Cons makes you a NEO-Con.
Very sad Glenn you don’t have the integrity to support the only person who for years have stood in principle and is identical to the founders in your own words. You support Michelle and Rick for Israel. You would rather pick a candidate on their stance for Israel over their stance for the USA.

Russians didn’t believe killing others would bring paradise. Huntsman and Pawlenty seemed the weakest in this debate to me.

Patriot Act expanded Government
Marriage amendment expands Government and replaces God with Government.
Says she was against stimulus yet sent letters requesting the Federal Funds from it.
Says Government can’t create jobs but sends letters requesting Government funds stating how many Government jobs it creates.
Received subsidies yet spoke against them.
Sorry the more I have researched the more I see the politician and phony rhetoric. I don’t see how she represents the TEA party by wanting more Government. Makes zero sense.
Rick looks just like Stephen Colbert and has that arrogant attitude.
I just don‘t get why Glenn doesn’t support Ron Paul. The only reason I’ve found is Israel and war. I believe the founders, we shouldn’t entangle ourselves with the World. Glenn may not support that, I do.

They should have the right to Nukes just like everyone else. They would get annihilated if they tried any thing over there. We would not even have to get involved. Israel would probably stop their attempt and wipe them off the map. Problem solved. Also, China and Russia would be pissed at Iran for starting a nuclear war in their region of the world.

Why do you think the USA has the right or authority to tell anyone what they can/can’t have? Where is this found in the Constitution? The USA has authority over the USA only. If we are going to protect the World then each country wanting the US aid should dissolve their Government and become a US state, otherwise take care of yourself. That includes Israel.
Why let India have Nukes and not Iran?
Why let Pakistan have Nukes and not Iran?
Why let China have Nukes and not Iran?

Trust me, I do agree with Paul, but I know humans and only a certain percentage of them really should have never been able to reproduce or have a mate, let alone reproduce. The terms Paul speaks in are to rigid for the majority of the people in our nation at this point in time. There is a place and a time for the leadership of Paul, but it takes a majority to elect a president in this republic, but we have digressed into such a dependent society, the effects on those who are less than able to live on their own won’t only effect them, but also the people in their life who will have to pull them along. I work in the addiction field and I know Paul carry’s the perfect message for recovery, but he delivery is the problem. Besides, there are many factors which he assumes but just doesn’t know for sure. While he is probably write, I have learned that you can anticipate every action of or reaction of man kind. When dealing with a nation as diverse as ours, this further complicated. If our nation falls to the ground and a rebuild process is needed. Paul is the perfect man.Sometimes a man has to surrender a battle to win the war. I don’t think Paul can understand this reality.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 1:22amA couple points:
Ron Paul won that debate hands down, for some obvious clear reasons. The main one is, he knows what he is talking about.
Economics: He understands the business cycle, he understands that liquidating debt and freeing the market over time can cure our economy.
Foreign Policy: If people cannot grasp, that it is economically impossible for the United States to disarm other foreign nations, then I have no idea what to tell them. Russia has nukes, China, etc etc. Stop believing in the lie of the Muslim boogeyman, because all that does is transfer wealth to the Military Industrial Complex.
Liberty: He understands the Rule of Law and how it is supposed to apply to our government.
Stop looking for the “American Idol” candidate that says all the right soundbites and use your brain. If we don’t elect people who want to keep our Republic we will lose it.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 1:33amI agree with Ron Paul. Most people don’t completely understand Dr. Paul because they aren’t clear enough about his stance because the Media will give him ZERO airtime. Most will say Dr. Paul is an isolationist, this is not true. Dr. Paul is all about doing business with other countries. When it comes to war Dr. Paul has said over and over again that war should ONLY be the very last resort. Why? Because not only does it cost us billions and trillions of dollars we don’t have but it costs us the blood of our loved ones. Dr. Paul is for war but only if it is absolutely necessary to defend the United States. This is good war policy. No country should be willing to just half hearted and without all the facts jump into another war. Don’t you know that the Global Leftists want America involved in wars around the world because it drives us into huge debt, weakens us and spreads us to thin. We need to focus on restoring our country first and fix our own problems and our own debt before we think we can help someone else. That is hypocrisy. We need a time to pull back and heal and rebuild. Besides, Dr. Paul is all for the Constitution which means it is the Congress that has to approve war.
I fully support Dr. Ron Paul and hope Dr. Paul/Herman Cain 2012!

Iran isn’t a friend of Israel. That is clear. Iran doesn’t like us for creating Israel and supporting them. If Israel is afraid, they should take care of their business, not us.
If Iran nukes Israel wouldn’t that destroy or at least hamper the Dome of the Rock that is sacred to Muslims and ran by Muslims? What does Iran gain by nuking Israel?
Now if Israel provokes a war between Iran and the US and the Dome of the Rock gets destroyed Israel could then rebuild their temple.
If Iran wanted a Nuke they can by one from North Korea.
If Iran wanted a Nuke the can buy one from Muslims ran Pakistan.
If Iran wanted a Nuke they could by one from a former Russian country.
Collapse from debt and overreach is a far more immanent danger then a Nuke by Iran.

Regarding Iran, it makes sense to me that they will eventually get their nukes whether we like it or not. And when they do, do we want our military spread out across the world? Or do we want them at home, where they can defend us and and be fully prepared to be deployed wherever they may need to go? A dispersed military is why Hitler and Napoleon failed, as well as many other nations. That is why Ron Paul is making sense to me.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 9:34amFor most educated, reasonable, and Constitutionally minded Patriots, Ron Paul is the only candidate in the debate which distinguishes himself from the pack. Although I really like much about Bachmann, let’s face it she’s a Neo-Con too even though the establishment Neo-Con Republican doesn’t claim her as their own.
Let’s just cut to the chase here, FOX News owned by an Israeli citizen and a Jew wants the US Military to fight all the enemies of Israel for eternity and it helps if we can make Israel’s enemies our enemies as well. This is what FOX does and this is what every shill for FOX news does including the shills on talk radio with the notable exception of the honorable Mike Church (XM Right 6-9am). Sure some have Conservative bents and they are certainly more Conservative than all other Media which are simply rabid Marxists imo but the two issues which always be preeminent are eternal War on Terror and low taxes for the Rich. Many don’t realize this but this facetious War will be eventually be turned upon the America people themselves and basically already has with the Patriot Act.
This is why FOX always goes out of its way to malign Ron Paul such as playing the boos from two year ago when he wins the current Republican straw poll, always setting him up, ignoring or marginalizing him in the debates, or simply removing the Polls they put out when he shows he has a commanding lead in order to not give any validity to his Pro American positions.

Don’t compromise! I will stay with Paul to the end and I really doubt seriously if I could ever vote for a Romney. Besides all hell is going to break lose in this next cycle no matter who the President is.
If we can‘t have an Honorable Constitutional Conservative then I say let it fall apart under Obama’s watch.

Just something to consider. On the other hand Romney may act to protect the American citizens while Obama would probably let the animals run wild.

Furthermore concerning the Media and Ron Paul… I few months ago I was speaking to my mother who sits in front of the TV at least 8hrs a day watching FOX News, and I began probing her over the Republican candidates. When I suggested Ron Paul, she made an ugly face and with pure meanness said “He’s such an idiot!” I thought to myself woooaaa where did that come from? I knew right away what was going on but a few weeks ago I was sitting in a Honda dealer getting my car serviced and an older woman was talking politics rather loudly sitting in front of me to a mostly disinterested man. All of suddenly I heard her say “Ron Paul! That little ole man is an Idiot!” I thought again oh my god, FOX is poisoning the minds of these people. Last night my mother in law said the exact same thing.
If you don’t think that the Israeli owned FOX News isn’t putting out poison against Ron Paul then it is you who are the real idiots. It is dividing the Republican Party in a major way. It’s completely unacceptable to have Religious Zealots, outright Zionist, Jews and various Puppets setting the foreign policy agenda of America showing an utter disregard and outright disdain for our Constitution! It is so very disconcerting because most Christians are great people who should know better but they are being carried away in this fanaticism over Israel without really understanding that they are being played as pawns in a much bigger game.

Paul is an anchored, principled, person who has a long record of not being swayed by every new wind of doctrine and public opinion of him.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 11:05amFinally since it appears that I missed this debate last night, let me sum it up by simply saying that Ron Paul is an anathema to the Jewish Media establishment! Not only does he not support their Wars in the Middle East, he also strongly opposes their hegemony over the Federal Reserve Bank which is actually the biggest grandest most important issue currently facing the USA even though our beloved Jewish Media always seems to be able to find a way to skirt the issue.. lol
Speaking of Jewish Media did anyone see the look on Chris’s face last night when Newt called him out? Classic!
The two candidates which are acceptable to the ZOG of the USA are Mitt Romney Tim Pawlenty and of course Huntsman. Notice they never want to talk about sound money and the only problem they ever find with the Wars is always over how Obama is prosecuting them… Like McCain, it’s always some logistical issue with GWB or Obama which certainly satisfies the Puppeteers.
You have been warned.

To this day I still find myself pulling for Glenn Beck simply because he does advocate for some sound reasonable Conservative principles; however, by advocating for War for another country especially considering the ramification of this War is simply treasonous at best.
Have you ever had a friend that you really like, you enjoy their companionship, but you know that they are not to be trusted around your wife? That’s Glenn Beck in a nutshell. You simply can’t trust Glenn’s motives when you consider how close he was with Rupert Murdoch and the crew.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 11:46amLibertariansUnite: I would probably take a little exception with Paul on the way he treats Christianity as regarding its role in our Politics. I actually believe Christianity had a special place in our politics during the founding of this country up until about Wilson adminstration. Then FDR declared out right War on Christianity as he stacked the Supreme Court with mere anti Christian beasts.
Regardless for all practical purposes that role is dead and gone so I’m willing to overlook it. I believe the people that I called out especially the ones in my family oppose Ron Paul because FOX has deluded them into thinking that he‘s not Patriotic if he doesn’t want to kill every Arab in the Middle East. Very sad but to a lot of Conservatives if you are not behind these Wars then you must not be a Patriot. When actually the opposite is true.

I feel the same way on things. Had to let go of my family and let the Lord take over on it. They were pushing back from listening to the lying media and I had our Creator. The Holy Spirit will open their eyes.
No as far as people that are now following what God is trying to tell them, that is simple for those who have had the scales removed from our eyes. When one refuses to relinquish their allegiance to a religion or denomination they not only cannot see or hear what God is trying to tell them but they now are being swayed by controlling and familiar spirits. This is a shame because once someone has begun to follow God they are more accountable. Once you step out from under that umbrella of protection you them place yourself under the judgment of satan. Those that have not had their eyes open just wander around and do not know any better, but one day they will.
Now as to what Ron Paul said about pulling our troops back from everywhere basically, I agree. It is unconstitutional for us to occupy any nation. We need to get our borders in order before we protect others. Our troops are spread way too thin. They have been demonized nearing the point of what it was in Vietnam and the training process has been reduced to producing pansies for the most part.
This nation needs to return to God.

Ron Paul is NOT a Republican, he runs under that banner because it helps him get on ballots, TV, etc. He is a pure Libertarian. Pure Libetarians share the same philosophies as do Anarchists. Some of Ron Pauls most ardent supporters are Anarchists and a left leaning coalition of groups like Code Pink and anti-war activists. Ron Paul supports an OPEN BORDER with Mexico. Ron Paul blames the USA for the attacks on 9-11. Do the reasearch and you will find volumes of other reasons why a Ron Paul presidency would be as dangerous as an Obama presidency.

Honestly I have always kind of doubted Glenn’s stance on “restoring America back to its original state”. These choices pretty much solidify that doubt. I really don’t know, or care, what Glenn Beck’s true intent is. It amazes me that I can pull up a sound byte of Glenn Beck claiming that Ron Paul is the closest to our founding fathers, yet, he will still support “Submissive” Bachmann.
Ironically, it also solidifies that Glenn Beck being a “Libertarian” is a farce. I would go further and say it might even be a propaganda tactic by FOX to keep the people who are truly upset with the country “in line” by delivering false hope that someone “understands, and is working to help them”. If that is the case Glenn Beck is truly a propaganda success story.
So long story short: His opinion is nothing to me any longer.

I wasn‘t suggesting that Christian morals in government isn’t good, I was more or less suggesting the if we start making arbitrary laws guided by a Christian Theology, then who is to say 50 years from now, people will make arbitrary laws banning religion. Once you give the government power to make moral decisions, it uses that justification forever.

2. Newsflash: Republicans do not equal conservatives. Examples: George big spender Bush, Mitt Health Care Romney, just to name a few.
3. We were attacked because for about 50ish years we were messing with the Middle East. You can fact check that, I wonder why they would want to bomb us….
4. Finally, you are saying that he will be a bad president because some left groups like his war policy. Considering that he has to win the general election, he is going to need votes from Left groups/Independant groups, so that is not a bad thing.

Two options: he is showing his true heart and coming out of the closet or he is allowing his religious views to determine his foreign policy not realizing it contradicts his stated views.
I always give benefit of doubt but I’m unsure I can any longer. What he fails to realize is his actions are showing he has less faith in God then he proclaims and is acting out of fear.

Your scenario is backward in one way, we live across the street and Iran (neighbor 1) and Israel (Neighbor 2) live side by side. Both neighbors are arguing over their property line and who gets to worship the rock currently under neighbor 1 control.
Neighbor 2 comes and complains daily about neighbor one for years, even secretly attacking and prodding neighbor 2. Neighbor 2 prods back and says they will wipe out neighbor 2 subtly attacking as well. We come in and say simmer down, find a peaceful solution and tell neighbor 1 to back off. Neighbor 2 says your next then.
Neighbor 1 starts collecting material they say is for energy efficiency. Neighbor 2 comes screaming they are making a bomb, while they actually have a bomb themselves.
No we don‘t kick neighbor 1’s door down because neighbor 2 says so. We tell both to find a peaceful solution or go fight in the ally. Either one screw with us and nothing is left of your house but the foundation.

To make a long story short, I feel for the most part Glenn is a shill for the Jewish people. He most certainly realizes the hypocrisy in his dealing with Israel and the Middle East. He obviously realizes that what we are doing in the Middle East is not Constitutional, not economically prudent, and not even in our best interests but he continues to advocate for more interventionism all the while squealing about our own economic morass. I suppose he’d rather see Grandma taken off of Medicare so that we can pursue all of our Military objectives in the ME. No, he is simply encouraging and requesting that the American people act as Mercenaries for the IDF without leveling with the American people about the true costs of such an act.
Anyway, to say that I’m cynical of his motives would be an understatement. I’d respect him much more if he just came out and said due to my Christian faith this is what we should do in the ME and with regards to Israel but like I said above I do not even believe Glenn is motivated by his Faith, I simply believe he’s a traitor and a shill.

Ron Paul is honest about being a libertarian leaning conservative, a point of view which is well within the political spectrum of the republican big tent…
libertarian is in no way the same as anarchist, libertarians want “limited government” anarchists want “no government” …. big difference
while the anti-war views may sound the same on the surface, but the reasoning is completely different, i have never seen any evidence leftist groups support Ron Paul’s reasoning for being non-interventionist or are in any way behind his campaign..

I’m with you on Ron Paul. His problem is most conservatives won’t vote for someone unless that person lines up on 9 out of 10 issues – or 10 out of 10. A guy like Paul who clearly tells you his opinion and the basis for his opinion gets scratched off by people who don’t like one or two of his positions – even if he’s great on the other 8 or 9 issues. So we end up with a watered down guy who doesn’t offend anyone because he tries to be all things to all people . . . . aka Obama . . . aka Romney.

Ron Paul also has received THE MOST donations from military. More than ALL of the other “R’s” COMBINED! Even more than Obama!
He also got the most in 2008. Even more than McCain. Check the F.E.C. numbers for yourself.
The “troops” have voted with their dollars. The people are waking up to the fact that BOTH parties (at the top) are corrupt, and for the same globalist agenda, which is more war, more spending, more debt., less freedom, less sovereignty, and less prosperity.
He’s the ONLY Military veteran in the race. (sensible foreign policy, troop support, strong National defense)
He’s the ONLY doctor in the race. (healthcare mess)
He’s the ONLY economist in the race. (predicted the 2008 collapse)
He’s the ONLY one with a PROVEN record of fidelity to his oath to the Constitution. (we can trust him to follow the rules that were set forth)
Keep voting for the smoothest speech, the shiniest boots, the nicest hair, and beauty pageant winners with no brains, no plan, or no substance, and this country is finished.

Either he is a total fraud a lies to his audience daily or he is a complete Moron ?
it has to be one or the other, personally I take it he‘s a liar like O’Brien in the book 1984
One of the most fascinating aspects of 1984 is the manner in which Orwell shrouds an explicit portrayal of a totalitarian world in an enigmatic aura. While Orwell gives the reader a close look into the personal life of Winston Smith, the reader’s only glimpses of Party life are those that Winston himself catches. As a result, many of the Party’s inner workings remain unexplained, as do its origins, and the identities and motivations of its leaders. This sense of mystery is centralized in the character of O’Brien, a powerful member of the Inner Party who tricks Winston into believing that he is a member of the revolutionary group called the Brotherhood. O’Brien inducts Winston into the Brotherhood. Later, though, he appears at Winston’s jail cell to abuse and brainwash him in the name of the Party. During the process of this punishment, and perhaps as an act of psychological torture, O’Brien admits that he pretended to be connected to the Brotherhood merely to trap Winston in an act of open disloyalty to the Party.
This revelation raises more questions about O’Brien than it answers. Rather than developing as a character throughout the novel, O’Brien actually seems to un-develop: by the end of the book,

Do the research yourself!
Ron Paul is a true Libertarian in the purest form of the name. He has even admitted as to why he files as a Republican.
True Libertarian thinking shares an ideology with Anarchy, and Anarchy shares ideology with a combination of Communism and to Socialism to a lesser extent.
I am very limited by the “Character count” the Blaze has instituted, but there is more than enough info to be found that proves what I claim about Ron Paul. I will over time keep on posting short character count explanations that can easily be found by doing the most basic of research. For this posting I give you this to chew on…
“If Ron Paul were to actually win, he would indeed fail to smash the state entirely. That is neither his intention nor his promise. However, he would clearly move American society far closer toward the anarchist ideal.” ~ By Anthony Gregory

Ron Paul is as nutty as a pecan pie on foreign policy. I like his fiscal and small government policies, but he leaves me thinking he doesn’t care if the whole world outside our borders burns to the ground, as if that wouldn’t affect the U.S.
———————————————————————————————————————————————-
Ron Paul is actually Jeffersonian in his approach to foreign policy, which should be any Presidents strongest ability. I could care less if a President never sticks his face into the Legislative arms elected purpose, to write Laws. The Administrative Branch should keep their faces out of both Lawmaking, and Justice.
Ron Paul is right on foreign policy. He’s not Isolationist, he works on a non intervention ideology. It’s the right thing in a Representative Republic. The only time the world should see our Military is if they attack the United States. If that occurs the President should go before Congress to make the case for war. Having secured that okay (law or legal mandate) he should turn the Military loose to do what it was born to do. Kill people and break things. Unleash hell on the attacking Nation and force an unconditional surrender quickly, and get the hell out and back to America.

She is for spreading democracy thru financial and military means. NEO-Con!
Sorry, America first for me, not Israel. No America, no Israel. Rome collapsed from overreach. We will too with NEO-Cons.
