Ron Paul: I‘m the ’Flavor of the Decade’

Coming off a new Iowa poll that puts him in second place among all the GOP presidential contenders, Texas Rep. Ron Paul said he’s the “flavor of the decade” and that his resolute stance on a select number of issues will pay off in the long term.
“We’ve had all the flavors of the month up and down so far in this campaign, I’d like to think of myself as the flavor of the decade,” Paul said on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday. “We keep plodding along on a couple issues that really are striking a chord with the people.”
The just-released Des Moines Register poll shows former House Speaker Newt Gingrich in the lead with 25 percent of the vote among likely Iowa Republican caucusgoers, Paul in second place with 18 percent and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney third at 16 percent.
Paul dismissed other polls that have him lagging in general election match-ups with President Barack Obama, saying his message resonates with independents and even Democrats who feel disenfranchised.
“You don’t win just with the hardcore Republican base, you need to have a candidate that appeals across the political spectrum,” Paul said, adding that he does need to convince more primary voters he will do a good job in the general election.
He also made a bid for Herman Cain supporters, saying he hopes to attract those who were drawn to the former candidate’s “independent mindedness.”
“We’re paying a lot of attention of that, obviously they’re going to go somewhere,” he said. “I’m optimistic that we’ll pick up some votes from there.”

Your rhetoric as i’ve said before is of the likes of Maddow and Sharpton on MSNBC. You’ve called Paul a racist anti-semite (when you even mentioned Von Mises and Rothboard, both Jewish in the same sentence also as anti-semites), and continue to troll every single positive mention of Ron Paul. You are no conservative but a lover of the state and propaganda, and you deliberately lie often.

Posted on December 5, 2011 at 12:34pmI encourage every Iowa caucus-goer (same with NH) to take a chance on Ron Paul and vote for him.
Anyone can vote for Romney or Santorum or Bachmann and have their vote be virtually useless. Please vote for some real change and not a marginal candidate who should not even be in this race.
He picks up votes across the board, and Republicans will vote for him. Nobody’s really going to be put off to vote for Obama instead.

“In the early ‘90s, Paul’s newsletters—the equivalent of blogs back in that ancient historical time—routinely had kind words for the Ku Klux Klan, and harsh ones for blacks …”
Please provide examples. Having seen the phrases which passes for “racism”, so far, as it relates to Ron Paul, it appears to me that people are still incapable of separating race from philosophy.
“… particularly urban blacks who were going to foment “The Coming Race War” (an article about the Adams Morgan neighborhood in Washington, D.C., was called, “Animals Take Over the D.C. Zoo”) …”
To the extent that the so-called “black community” is defined by a race, is the extent to which this group’s misdirected anger will be motivated by race. Again, this is fact, not racism.
And collectivists ARE animals.
“… gays (fear of AIDS) …”
It’s a fact that AIDS spreads (or at least used to) quicker among gays.
“… and, of course, Jews, both implicitly (tirades against “the industrial-banking-political elite”) and explicitly, with Israel as the correlative (one newsletter questioned whether the Mossad was responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing).”"
It’s either true or false that the Mossad and the CIA were responsible; Why does it have to be automatically racist?

Posted on December 5, 2011 at 1:01pmAs Ron Paul says: “You have two choices. Either you can work your way out of this, or you wait until it collapses and you have to rebuild it.”
A primary vote for either Romney or Gingrich is a vote for waiting, just as surely as a vote for Obama in 2008 was. Neither Gingrich nor Romney has even the faintest grasp of the nature or the extent of the problems presently facing the nation. Neither Gingrich nor Romney will do anything in office, anything at all, to address these problems. They will instead do precisely as various presidents named Bush, Obama and Clinton have done in attempting to buy more time, and thereby exacerbating the situation when no more time can be bought.
Republicans now have two choices. They can either put forward Ron Paul as a candidate who is committed to address the financial and economic problems facing the nation, or they can put forward a candidate who will do little more than ensure Republicans bear the blame for the economic collapse of the country.

I think you’re being very unfair to the other candidates.
@spanka…
If he’s so terrible, why don’t you attack his policies and ideas. Instead you just shoot of some general worthless tirade about dreams.
When I criticize Ron Paul I specifically call out his ideas on foreign policy and state why I don’t like them.
Your criticism was “all he does is talk???”
Let’s take a very quick review of his resume:
Ron Paul received his medical degree from Duke.
He served his country honorably as a surgeon in the Air Force.
He delivered over 4,000 babies working as a gynocologist and obstetrician.
He’s authored several books and articles.
He’s served 12 two year terms as a congressman.
He has the most conservative voting record in the congress, bar none!
That list just scratches the surface and already it’s a lot more than just “talk.” Most people would love to add any one of those lines to their resume.
You don’t have to vote for him. You don’t have to agree with him. But, IMHO, I think his record of service merits some respect.

“Ron Paul has some solid ideas, and then he opens his mouth and starts wailing in that high pitch and talking some crazy crap. He has missed his time to make his mark, simple as that.”
—————————-
Actually, the dumbed down superficial American Public has “missed the mark.”
As far as the high pitched voice?
“If Thomas Jefferson ran for President today, he would likely get pummeled. His high-pitched voice would score low marks in the television age.
He must have known that his voice wasn’t his strongest quality. Jefferson disliked giving speeches so much that even as president he sent his “State of the Union” addresses to Congress – a practice continued by all subsequent presidents until Woodrow Wilson.
Known for his strong intellect, Tom Jefferson studied hard as a student. Because of his excellent writing skills, he took the lead in drafting the American colonies’ Declaration of Independence.”

I wish that those of you who currently wouldn’t dream of voting for Ron Paul would launch an all out assault on his policies.

Do you know how difficult it is to get people to argue about substance? Don‘t you know you’re about to lose your liberties?
THIS is why so many people who choose Ron Paul stay with Ron Paul. We will not vote for anyone else but Ron Paul unless you convince us that another candidate is better, even if it means the Republican vote gets split and Obama will get reelected.
So, either convince us that someone else is more Constitutional than Ron Paul; vote for Ron Paul so that the Republican vote doesn’t get split; or attempt to blame “Paulbots” for Obama’s reelection all the while knowing that we threw down the gauntlet and you chose something other than the Constitution as your criteria for voting.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 3:37pmNewt on climate change: The Facts
FACT: Recently Newt Gingrich supported job-killing, big government climate schemes alongside Nancy Pelosi.
2008: In an advertisement made for Al Gore’s Alliance for Climate Protection, Gingrich sat with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and said that “we do agree our country must take action to address climate change.” [We Campaign, 4/18/08] And didn’t back down from it.
But his environmental left streak isn’t new.
FACT: In 1979, Newt voted to take land away from states and individuals.
The “Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act,” which then Congressman Gingrich voted for in support of President Jimmy Carter, was a federal government power grab that put tens of millions of acres of land in the hands of the corrupt cronyism and bureaucracy in Washington.
1997: As Speaker of the House, Gingrich co-sponsors H. Con. Res. 151, which notes carbon dioxide is a “major greenhouse gas” that comes from “products whose manufacture consumes fossil fuels” and calls on the United States to “manage its public domain national forests to maximize the reduction of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.” [H. Con. Res. 151, 9/10/1997]
Newt also DID call for cap-and-trade.
2007: Gingrich calls for a cap-and-trade system with tax incentives for clean energy. “I think if you have mandatory carbon caps combined with a trading system, much like we did with sulfur, and if you have a tax-incentive program f

Besides Paul thinks that Iran is not a threat. We have got to take off the gloves with Iran before they get Nukes.

From a religious perspective, if you believe the Bible then it doesn‘t really matter who Israel’s allies are because they are protected by God. I am not abrogating the need for allies or that we should support Israel but instead consider this:
Currently our government steps in the way of Israel and asks them to give concessions and land for a promise of peace that will never come. Instead of subsidizing all of the factions around Israel I support RP in his view of cutting off all foreign aid to everyone including Israel and letting them make their own decisions.
This is a newer position for me, I have to trust God to do His work, Israel doesn’t need the big brother U.S. to survive. Without serious fiscal reform we will have the best tanks and warships in the world with no fuel in the tanks. The U.S. is broke, period. If we don’t move away from Keynesian economics and restore sound money and stop spending we are done for.

You, sir, are clever. :)
To be sure, the Bible says that God will bless those who bless Israel and curse those that curse her. Also, if you want to send your own money to Israel, then you should be allowed to do so.

“Saint Paul killer: Lew Rockwell”
There does exist a group of people, united under the belief that the color of their skin is enough to warrant comraderie, that also adopts a collectivist view of economics which has historically been destructive of people’s property and lives regardless of race.
To say that this group of people gets a pass for espousing tyrannical economic views simply because they are black, both ignores the fact that THEY THEMSELVES choose to see themselves as a class of people rather than simply as a people, and ignores the fact that collectivist economic views ARE IN FACT parasitic regardless of race.
To the extent a group has adopted color as a basis for inclusion, is the extent to which it is reasonable to identify the group by color. To the extent a group has adopted destructive economic philosophies as a basis for inclusion, is the extent to which it is reasonable to identify the group by economic philosophy.
The key to understanding the Libertarian use of the term “parasitic underclass” (I’ve seen what passes for “racism” in a cursory examination of one of the Ron Paul Newletters, and this term seems similar), as it applies to the so-called “black community”, is to know that not every black person identifies with them.

There is absolutely NOTHING controversial about this statement. Libertarianism is DEFINED by individual liberty, while racism requires the belief that people can be grouped by skin color.

“In the early ‘90s, Paul’s newsletters—the equivalent of blogs back in that ancient historical time—routinely had kind words for the Ku Klux Klan, and harsh ones for blacks …”
Please provide examples. Having seen the phrases which passes for “racism”, so far, as it relates to Ron Paul, it appears to me that people are still incapable of separating race from philosophy.
“… particularly urban blacks who were going to foment “The Coming Race War” (an article about the Adams Morgan neighborhood in Washington, D.C., was called, “Animals Take Over the D.C. Zoo”) …”
To the extent that the so-called “black community” is defined by a race, is the extent to which this group’s misdirected anger will be motivated by race. Again, this is fact, not racism.
And collectivists ARE animals.
“… gays (fear of AIDS) …”
It’s a fact that AIDS spreads (or at least used to) quicker among gays.
“… and, of course, Jews, both implicitly (tirades against “the industrial-banking-political elite”) and explicitly, with Israel as the correlative (one newsletter questioned whether the Mossad was responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing).”"
It’s either true or false that the Mossad and the CIA were responsible; Why does it have to be automatically racist?

2. Ron Paul has thrown out some names of people he would put in Cabinet positions that scare the hell out of me.
3. Ron Paul has a foreign policy that begs for an increase in attacks aginst the USA in an already dangerous world.
4. Ron Paul is a Pacifist. (when you are the POTUS of the USA and you are considered a weakling/pacifist you are even MORE LIKELY to be attacked.
5. Ron Paul has a problem with the Drug War and would rather legalize them. (this may be popular for dope-heads, but for me and millions of people like me, it’s an attitude of societal suicide)

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 2:41pmYour soo blind I am supprised you can read. Obviously you have never read his website or done any research into Ron Pauls history or even his positions and historical integrity. There is no flip flop personal self interest stories in his past. I will not bash you for your ignorance, But I do encourage you to do some honest research and stop taking the word of the mainstream media and the progressive propaganda machines. Your banter is, at best, uninformed and at worst, disinformation, wether it is intentional or just being a sheep to the agenda of the elite political class. Educate yourself on the truth and please, don’t be led to your own slaughter through ignorance.

You have to understand, the Paulies are caught up in their own Ron Paul myth. They see Paul is not only something more than a politician but somewhat more than a human being. Of the thousands of politicians in this country, this one alone is in favor of the constitution and the only one who can save America.
One could wonder what difference it could make. Dr. Paul is getting up in years and when he’s gone, that’s the end of America anyway.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 2:50pmSo let me get this straight. Someone who wants to go in and fix things, doesn’t have much choice other than to be apart of the government we have and try to make it work like its supposed to. You guys are so far up your butts, that your attacking the man for something he cant control. How many hundreds of people are in washington d.c. and you try to blame ron paul for being part of the governement, how else is he going to fix things than to be apart of the government. Could you imagine being in congress since 1976 and not being able to change a thing? Ya that is pretty frustrating should be a tell tale sign of how currupt and backwards our government has gotten. None of you guys have watched ron paul enough to know anything about his policies. He does care about nukes, he just isnt the scared sheep newt and romney wants you to be. Wake up people. Even GLEN BECK SAID THAT RON PAUL IS THE CLOSEST THING TO THE FOUNDING FATHERS.

Paul refuse to sign up for the government pension that he would be entitled to in order to avoid receiving government money, he says it would be “hypocritical and immoral”. Paul routinely lowered fees or worked for free and refused to accept Medicaid or Medicare payments as a Physician.

But, even more important, Ron Paul is an unusual politician because he doesn’t simply pay lip service to moral principles. He believes in moral principles in his mind and heart, and he fights for them passionately and effectively. High on his set of moral principles is the vital importance of individual freedom, of the individual’s natural right to be free of assault and aggression, and of his right to keep the property that he has earned on the free market, and not have it stolen from him by confiscatory taxes and government regulations.”

Im a God fearing man, we follow God’s lead, not the other way around. The BEST way to support Israel, is to let them be ISRAEL. We have no right to tell them how to operate. The USA controlling Israel’s actions is Anti-semitic. Give God’s nation the control of itself, we will ALWAYS have Israel’s back if things get too hot to handle. Ron Paul is against ALL foreign aide. ALL of it. It doesnt single Israel out. Why do we give more $$$ to Israel’s enemies than we do to Israel? Isnt that anti-semitic? Is that what you see as suppporting Israel? Giving money to them and twice as much to their enemies? Even when you’re bankrupt? In addition, Ron Paul wouldnt be able to cut ALL financial aide to Israel anyways. Churches from all over the country donate $$ to Israel every year. You anti-paulies cling to this issue, for over a year now, its the same generic responses that the media subliminally implants into your brain.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:20pmI’d have to say that this is pretty accurate:
(Ron Paul in the House Financial Services Committee, September 10, 2003):
“Ironically, by transferring the risk of a widespread mortgage default, the government increases the likelihood of a painful crash in the housing market. This is because the special privileges granted to Fannie and Freddie have distorted the housing market by allowing them to attract capital they could not attract under pure market conditions. As a result, capital is diverted from its most productive use into housing. This reduces the efficacy of the entire market and thus reduces the standard of living of all Americans.
Despite the long-term damage to the economy inflicted by the government’s interference in the housing market, the government’s policy of diverting capital to other uses creates a short-term boom in housing. Like all artificially-created bubbles, the boom in housing prices cannot last forever. When housing prices fall, homeowners will experience difficulty as their equity is wiped out. Furthermore, the holders of the mortgage debt will also have a loss. These losses will be greater than they would have otherwise been had government policy not actively encouraged over-investment in housing.
Perhaps the Federal Reserve can stave off the day of reckoning by purchasing GSE debt and pumping liquidity into the housing market, but this cannot hold off the inevitable drop in the housing market forever.”

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:55pmI think Rand is more sensitive to the fear propagated by the media. Dr. Paul just “tells it as he sees it” Maybe Rand is more of a statesman and debater than his dad. Believe me — both of their hearts are golden when it comes to the Constitution and what’s best for America.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:09pmNot a chance. Not unless the flavor of the week is putrid green. Ron Paul does not understand that the vile Mohammedist enemy is out to kill us. He’s as naive about this vile threat as anyone could ever be. And, this guy thinks it’s absolutely fine for the Mohammedist murderers to build a victory mosque on Ground Zero sacred ground, just like they did with the Cordoba mosque when they conquered Spain. Why do you think all the Mohammedists want to vote for him and he’s got the endorsement of anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan?
Ron Paul has his head in the sand and he’s about to get a rude awakening. Iran is headed toward getting the nuclear bomb and guess what, Ron Paul, Twelver Ahmadinejad will use it. First on the little Satan, then on the big Satan. When someone is saying they want to kill you then it’s advisable to take their threat seriously. Unless you are suicidal.
Wake up Ron Paul. You are living in the Stoneage and you are about to be sent back to it by the very Supremacists who have endorsed you.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:19pmI am SO against the antiPatriot act and the current bill Rand Paul is fighting, which is the antiPatriot act on steroids…………..here’s a good reason to be against “suspending our civil liberties”…….
“One of the most traumatic events in German history occurred soon after Hitler took office. On February 27, 1933, in what easily could be termed the 9/11 terrorist attack of that time, German terrorists fire-bombed the German parliament building. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that Adolf Hitler, one of the strongest political leaders in history, would declare war on terrorism and ask the German parliament (the Reichstag) to give him temporary emergency powers to fight the terrorists. Passionately claiming that such powers were necessary to protect the freedom and well-being of the German people, Hitler persuaded the German legislators to give him the emergency powers he needed to confront the terrorist crisis. What became known as the Enabling Act allowed Hitler to suspend civil liberties “temporarily,” that is, until the crisis had passed. Not surprisingly, however, the threat of terrorism never subsided and Hitler’s “temporary” emergency powers, which were periodically renewed by the Reichstag, were still in effect when he took his own life some 12 years later.”

In America, the presidents job, limited as it is, is to protect America from threats. He would do this by reversing the dangerous trend of offensive warfare that we have been seeking for the last half decade. (continued)

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:21pmOur policy is to pay those who listen to us, and bomb those who don’t. By stopping this nonsense and opening up trade relations with all nations, the people would be safer immediately as we are no longer a threat to other nation’s sovereignty and safety. This would reduce the appeal to come here and attack us. Dr. Paul thinks we can do a lot with nuclear submarines and letters of marque and that our recent presidents didn’t know how to use the weapons at their disposal.
The troops would all come home to America, where they will be stationed across the country at bases well equipped to defend this nation from foreign invaders, the current model of spreading them around the world only thins the line of defense here in the country.
Ron Paul would never allow gun control to continue, so people who own guns for their own defense could properly defend their homes and communities. The current Agenda 21 is a wrecking ball for our ability to control ourselves, paving the way for global control.
The end of the wars would trigger an economic boom as all that money returns to the USA. Improved trading relations will bolster business. Ending the FEDs ability to print money from thin air will stop the devalue of the currency, making our economy more stable, and in turn, making us more capable of defending ourselves in the case we need to.
Even if you don’t agree 100% with Ron Paul’s foreign policy, a Paul presidency would be dictated heavily by the congress (as the const

The only FACT is that I could show you every FACT in the world that disproves your views and you would still insist yours are right. The FACT is you are no different than JFK conspiracy theorists, those who perpetuate blood libels, and the true authors of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. You have an established view that you will cling to regardless of whether there is evidence to support it simply because you are incapable of seeing the world in any way other than your own twisted view. Your perception is weak, limited, and naive.
For you, it is beyond all possible comprehension that 19 people could hijack planes and cause so much destruction to people who never harmed them simply because they are evil and believed their victims deserved to die. You naively believe that all evil comes from a desire to rule and be powerful and thus seek out a fantasy in which that is true. If the media says otherwise they are automatically in on the conspiracy. If the government says otherwise they must have orchestrated it. The procedure is the same every time and you are to blind and ignorant to see it

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 3:04pmWake up buddy. Stop acting like we are in Germany in 1937. The ONLY real threat to my Liberty and Prosperity are the federal government, period. The federal government is the entity that has sold my Nation out, and destroyed it. There are only 2 candidates running for office that are actually in favor of reigning in that government. One of them, Gary Johnson, I like for the most part, but he loses me with his pro-choice stance. Can’t get behind abortion, sorry. The other is Ron Paul, who happens to be the most pro-life candidate out there. The Neocons are anything BUT pro-life, because they are such war-hawks. And I’m sorry, but war has nothing to do with a pro-life stance, especially wars of aggression against a group of people all because our government and the media they have coopted have told us we need to fear and hate them. That is a big tool in the facist government handbook. The government points to a group of people and gins up a bunch of hatred and fear against them, all to get you to give up control of your life and liberty. In the early 1900s, it was the Jews, Catholics and Gypsies, amongst others. So sad that so many in our Nation that claim to support the cause of Liberty are so unwilling to learn from the mistakes of the past.

Posted on December 4, 2011 at 1:06pmHerman Cain was already predicted to enter the race to challenge not the Neocon candidates, but to be the candidate who draws votes away from Ron Paul with his farcical ideas about the Federal Reserve. This was known when he attacked Ron Paul about auditing the Fed, then FLIP FLOPPED and tried to revise his position saying the Fed can be “fixed”, praising Ron Paul for his acquisition of the Chairmanship of the House Committee on Domestic Monetary Policy.
Of course it can’t be fixed, you neocon, perpetrating, Federal Reserve shill idiot. Just like your pathetic campaign can’t be fixed either. You were BOUND to drop out because you are a damn joke.
