Ron Paul Says He Would Not Aid Israel in Military Action Against Iran

Keeping true to form but breaking with his GOP counterparts, Texas Congressman Ron Paul spoke about the potential of Israeli military action against Iran during CNN’s foreign policy debate Tuesday night, stating that he would not aid Israel if an attack against Iran proved imminent. Paul said he wouldn’t expect such an attack to take place, but if it were to asked: “Why does Israel need our help? We need to get out of their way.”

Paul stated that if Israel wanted to attack Iran “that’s their business, but they should suffer the consequences.” He added that Israel has hundreds of nuclear missiles and thus, “can take care of themselves.”

Former front-runner Herman Cain, on the other hand, said he might help Israel in such scenario, “if the mission and the plan were clear.”

“If Israel had a credible plan that it appeared as if they could succeed, I would support Israel, yes,” Cain said.

“And in some instances, depending upon how strong the plan is, we would join with Israel for that, if it was clear what the mission was and it was clear what the definition of victory was.”

      Paul was one of the lone congressmen to support Israel’s attack on Iraq. He said we needed to mind our own business and get out of their way. All these other guys want to make Israel a puppet for us.

      Great answer Ron Paul…Israel doesn’t need US help nor want it…BiBi wants us to leave them alone so Israel can determine it’s own path! 

      Israel bombed Iraq‘s reactor on it’s own….No difference here…And as Ron Paul said, Israel may not even attack Iran!

      Not one candidate, other than Paul, has put out a plan to balance the budget while they are still in the white house. There is a reason for that, they plan on increasing our role in the world and that will cost us everything, just like it did Russia.

      @ Okie from.. there is a huge difference in – Israel is very capable and should be willing (they are) to take out their enemies and threats – to standing in that position totally alone with no backing or support from the most poweful (sorry Obama in spite of your efforts today we are still thus) country / military in the world

      In other words – Israel can and will defend herself with or with out our “approval” We need to let the rest of the world know that so you do to Israel – you do to the US and we will not tolerate reprisals against Israel. Attacks against Israel should be clearly understood as the same as an attack against the US.

      Let’s face it – there are only 2 really free places left – Israel & the US. The foundation of real freedom from tyranny only exists in the foundation of the most High – the God of Abraham, Jacob, Isaac & Jesus

      @Kay

      You are wrong. 

      If Israel as a free Nation decides a neighbor is a threat, then Israel must analyze such threat as if doing so alone. That is proper war strategy. In war, you never depend or rely on anyone. 

      No-Israel is not our State nor is it our territory. If we a bigger country tell the world what you do to Israel you do to the US, that could and probably will give Israel a thought to do as they decide and possibly become more aggressive when they normally would not be without our unlimited support. Saying a stupid statement like that actually hurts Israel. Too much confidence…

      Britain is more free then Israel. In Britain you can worship whatever religion you’d like. Get a clue. The God of Abraham sent His Son…Anyone who rejects such Son is not of the Father. Period. Going to war on Religion is not a foreign policy, it’s a fake religion and not of God.

      You are one of the few Ron Paul supporters here who loves Israel and yet supports a man who does not. Words carry a lot of weight in the political arena. If a presidential candidate says we should let Israel take care of itself, it sends the wrong message to Ahmednutjob, the Muslim Brotherhood, Hezbollah and every other group or country that wants to wipe Israel off the map. Paul is no different from Carter and Obama. He too places the blame on America for all the jihadist attacks against us. He denies the Islamist agenda. In fact, the man is so far out on the political fringe he has more in common with libs than with conservatives. After the debate, Donna Brazile admitted that she agrees with Paul on a lot of things, and it goes without saying that the harmony is not godly. Please wake up. Behind Ron Paul’s libertarian facade there is a manipulative, self-centered individual.

      Ron Paul is responsible and points out we must be responsible about our role, if any, that brought about 9/11 and jihadists attacks. Analysts all thru out our intelligence community agree with Ron Paul…Aggressive foreign policy, intervention, caused blowback. By just stomping into every land we can and occupying it we caused a retaliation that eventually landed on our own shores because we continued to ignore and be irresponsible for our actions. ARROGANCE….

      Your progressive views, interventionism, is right out of the play book of Woodrow Wilson. This view is aligned perfectly with Barack Obama and the progressive left, “we know better and should tell other countries what to do”…ARROGANCE….

      As for Israel, no one hates them like you lie and say. Do you hate those welfare recipients you say should make it on their own or are you actually loving them by making them independent and self reliant? Same principle. Israel can handle herself. BiBi said he doesn’t want your forced support! Respect that! ARROGANCE to think you know better then BiBi…

      You are a prime example of exactly why al-Qaeda is defeating us around the globe as you do not know one thing about why they started or what their goals are. You are spitting into the wind. 

      al-Qaeda ‘base’ was created to inspire jihad as a reaction to aggressive USA foreign policy. You can make all the crap up’d like but that is fact jack..In essence our actions created this group, just like Russia aggressive foreign policy created mujahdeen in their war with Afghanistan. Aggression is met with retaliation. Every action causes a reaction and the first action causes all the following actions. 

      bin Laden’s al-Qaeda’s goal: bleed America dry financially, spread troops and intel thin, cause dissent within America and between her allies. 
      The reason to jihad per the Koran is out of DEFENSE against INVADERS. 

      So, if we keep occupying foreign Arab land like OWS does private parks, jihad, retaliation, will occur and only be legitimized and grow stronger. Aggressive foreign policy is the source of all of these problems. 

      Ron Paul was correct. It is sickening our fine men and women go fight and die for people like you who don’t know what the hell they speak of. So shut up. You are to blame for encouraging what caused this whole problem.

      Glenn wants to support Israel, then Glenn can write them a check. His money, his choice. Same goes for all the other foreign aid money the Feds dole out. That is not part of the “Mission Statement” in the US Constitution.

      BTW, it’s not my responsibility to provide billions of dollars worth of AIDs medicine to millions of people in Africa either. Bill Gates or Bono want to “save” Africans, they can write a check, too.

      So everyone just loves the Constitution except when it gets in the way of their own ideology, dont be like the Libs. Dr Paul follows it to the letter, and has for decades, yet you dont like “his” (I mean the constitutional) stand on foreign affairs? Hypocrites? You say you’re for the Tea Party yet you waver from its core? You’d prefer Cain the Clueless or Romney the Rhino or Gingritch the GOP to enact the sweeping change you seek? I suggest, as Glenn’s said “do your own homework” because Dr Paul is the real deal, which scares people on both sides. He is for a strong defense (of home) & equal favor/trade for all allies & no support to any (which we cant afford anyway?). I (the individual) stand strongly with Israel for my own spiritual reasons, as does Dr Paul & Beck (personally) but that doesnt mean the Feds have to DO anything. They dont need it & havent asked for it, they have God & nukes, we have bankruptcy, it seems pretty obvious.

      What happened to BRAVE AMERICANS? I never dreamed I would see the day where Americans called out for war because the media manipulated them with fear. I never dreamed I would see Americans toss away their LIBERTY in exchange for false promises of security. I never thought Americans would put the welfare of other countries ahead of their own. What has happened to us?

      If they initiate an unprovoked attack then of course we should not. If they are in need of our help in response to being attacked that is a different matter. The US should not let Israel determine the strategic policy in the region. They are way, way to oriented to their self interest and could care less about the US other than our power and support. Time for the US to get balanced deals with all our allies. If big corporations need protection in the region, they should pay for it.

Shut your eyes real tight and rote-cite the Constitution, you clueless wuss. You wouldn‘t know what’s wrong until a bomb blew your sorry a$$ into pieces.

      Glenn’s FoxNews Show on 4/15/2011 w/ Dore Gold, fmr Israeli Amb. to the UN:

      GLENN: Americans are beginning to disconnect with both parties and they are becoming much more like the Founders – some. And the Founders would’ve said, “We’re friends to everybody and enemies to nobody; we mind our own business.” America doesn’t have the money or resources anymore to be the policemen of the world. Explain to somebody what it means to stand by Israel – we have to go over and fight wars with you or what does it mean?

      GOLD: That is precisely the point. Israel never asked the United States to risk the lives of American troops to defend it. We don’t want to be West Germany in the Cold War. We don’t want to be South Korea with American troops deployed along the demilitarized zone. There are people today who are suggesting that Israel should get out of that great strategic buffer that protects it – the Jordan Valley – and put NATO forces there, put the 82nd Airborne there. And we are complemented by the thought, but we don’t want that to happen. We don’t want American troops or any other troops defending Israel. We want to fulfill the doctrine of the founder of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, of self-reliance – that Israel defends itself BY ITSELF. And what we ask for from the United States is diplomatic support so we can maintain that position.

      There is certainly a line you don’t want to cross when trying to serve God (see the story of Ishmael) but you also need to be ready, willing and able to be God’s tool if He so chooses to use you.

      So, yes, God doesn’t actually need us for anything. On the other hand, when He gives us an opportunity to be part of His plan, we should not thumb our noses and point that out.

No worries though, Israel is not going to let that happen, they will fight until the last man stands.

      Israel from it’s conception under the British Mandate for Palestine was and has been nothing but a beach head and FOB to advance Western way of life into the old Ottoman empire (Muslim Land). The US thru aggressive foreign policy that began under Wilson slowly and surely toppled and bought out dictators all over that region. 

      In order to ensure the religious in America keep support of this world dominance, progressives instilled “we must fight for Israel or God will turn on us” which is a total lie. 

      The very people, Protestants, who are suppose to see the signs of the Bible, back a foreign policy that slowly conquered the world and brought it under a world government. How easily Satan fooled so many! 

      Our leaders don’t give a rats rear about Israel or her people, progressives are only worried their control will be taken from them if we let Israel decide her own fate. Israel was/is simply a Progressive pawn and manipulation tool…

      I seem to recall somewhere in the Bible that there are specific boundaries laid out by God for the land of Israel. While I do understand that the current day boundaries are not those as designed from the beginning, I would venture a guess that the current state of Israel exists within those original bounds.

      And while I do understand that Jesus was sent to redeem the Jews (and all mankind) as fulfillment of the law and prophesy and that the Jews rejected Jesus, God made a covenant with the Jews. God does not break his covenants no matter what we humans do or do not do. I do not recall anywhere in the scriptures where God said to the Jews – nevermind. There are multitudes of promises from God and agiain- God doesn’t break His word….

      To bring about JESUS, God laid out a land for the Jewish people to do so and today’s Israel is nothing of what God gave them. 

      God made a covenant to bring about Jesus…Jesus fulfilled that covenant..Nothing was broken…Land was not the inheritance silly, the Messiah Jesus Christ was…The land given was simply to bring about Jesus…

      Why was there no State of Israel from 70 AD until the middle of the 20th century if the covenant was land? 

      No God did not say never mind. Jesus said the Romans will come and destroy the Temple and Jerusalem will be over ran with Gentiles until the wrath of God is poured out in the end. 

      Rejection of Jesus is breaking the covenant…..You really think God will allow a temple to be built to sacrifice something in replace of Jesus? No way! 

      The only people encircling Jerusalem today are this who reject Jesus Christ and it is their stumbling block….

      Our strategic national interest in Isreal is that it provides a friendly nation where we can land troops and supplies when we do begin the war with the Caliphate. The Caliphate would control the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal. Their influence would be felt by the European countries on the Med who are in no shape to defend themselves. A powerful Calaphate can cause disruption in France and Germany which would throw these countries into internal strife. A disrupted Europe is against our national interest because we are in a global economy.

      Diplomacy assumes that you are dealing with a party who shares at least some portion of the same values as you. When the other side is centuries apart in what is considered valuable you are starting from a position where there can be no meaningful starting point.

      We value life
      We value our children
      We value the golden rule
      We value moral absolutes like the 10 Commandments (or for those of the athiest / humanist persuasion at least 7 of them)
      We value the individual
      We value personal right and responsibility
      We value propery rights
      We value honesty, integrity…and myriad other things

      Our enemies value none of those things. You cannot reason with those who are so diametically opposed to those things we value. They do not and will not negotiate from the same place.

      You show you lack understanding of why we are fighting, America aggression into others land. As long as the USA continues to stomp around in the ME like we own the world and can tell everyone what to do, bin Laden’s jihad will continue against us and gain strength. bin Laden‘s jihad is based on American’s (invaders) being in Muslim land (holy land to them)….

      Iran wants us to attack them because they are in a battle with Saudi Arabia over who will lead Islam. An attack on Iran by the US will unite the jihad under Shia belief….

      If Muslims held an aggressive foreign policy and began infiltrating the US to influence the government, would Americans rise up in the name of ‘God’ to fight them and even attack their home land? YES

They can live peacefully in “my” world – I will just disagree with them and move along.

      Interesting. How do you explain 1400 years of Islamic expansion that was underwritten by the jihad principle? Middle East, North Africa, Spain, India, Balkans? Yes, it was all done under the banner of jihad.

      “bin Laden started al-Qaeda because our armies came over to ME.”

      No. From the inception AQ was started as a recruiting tool for a fight against infidels, originally intended as a armed wing of Muslim Brotherhood. In particular, it was directed against Russian “infidels” in Afghanistan. OBL did not like the US troops stationed in KSA, true, in the salafist view, that was a sacrilige. But the founding concept was to continue jihad and spread of Islam, interrupted for 3 centuries at Vienna gates.

      OBL/AQ amd KSA princes are not in disagreement over the concept of Jihad. and the ultimate goals of Islam stated in Koran and Hadiths. They just disagree on methods. KSA leadership thinks AQ is counterproductive by clueing infidels on the goals (beside AQ trying to overthrow KSA government). They want to use the stealth jihad instead, by founding mosques (beach heads of Islam), madrassas, by buying out politicians and means of propaganda.They think it is more effective, and they are correct–if OBL did not start his call to arms campaign on West, a very few people would have any clue about long term goals.

      @KAY You say “I don’t have the answer”. I think that sums up everything that has been discussed here. You obviously don’t want to wipe every believer in Islam off the face of the earth, so what do we do then? If the US continues occupation, the fire is stoked and more “terrorists” come out of the woodwork. If the US leaves, that may start creating problems. At home the Muslims are taking over the US through infiltration into the big government that helps them with their cause.

      The problem is that we will never be safe no matter what we do — even if we wipe out every Muslim and every communist and .. in the world. Your fears are being stoked through propaganda so that you will lose faith.

      Ron Paul’s solutions will not make the world safe for you, but neither will the neocon war mongers solutions. Any Christian would know though, that we do not force our beliefs through the barrel of a gun. We will defend ourselves if attacked, but we will not preemtively remove a potential threat in order to make ourselves safe – that is a fools errand.

      So let’s stick to what is right, and have faith.

      Jihad was first waged against the pagan believers in Arab land once Islam was established under Mohammad. It was later used against those countries that tried to invade such land all the way up to the home land of such invaders as we see today. Until peace or victory jihad is waged. 

      al-Qaeda was not initially begun under MB. ‘88 when finishing off the Russians and after siding with many Pakistani leaders OBL began the group al-Qaeda to potentially beat out the Americans that came in to aid in removing the Russians from Afghanistan. Upon returning home in ‘90 and KSA deciding to use the USA to fend off Saddam from their border country Kuwait, OBL returned to Afghan to bring al-Qaeda in to full mode of inspiring jihad. Before leaving OBL was very critical of the monarch of KSA. They expelled him and he left finding refuge in Afghanistan. 

      So in ‘90 al-Qaeda began to work to inspire jihad against the invaders. We have been there since and fighting them there since. Before, it did not exist.

      Jihad is not to take over the world and it’s not a long term goal. That is absolutely false. There is absolutely nothing in the USA an orthodox Muslim wants, nothing. It is sacrileges for Muslims to partake in unbelievers way of life. That is another reason OBL was critical of KSA, because they mixed with unbelievers financially. Greed has driven many to mix with unbelievers which is seen in their funding of Mosques etc here in the US. Those groups are way more unorthodox and actually follow most civil liberties we have here. US also encourages these groups to fund those projects here in an effort to make them leave such harsh ways of life and at a possibility to influence people in KSA. Had nothing to do with subtle jihad to rule world. That’s simply false and propaganda from the US fear mongers. 

      “US left KSA territory, that was one of OBL pet peeves. But that does not matter. AQ or other salafi or militant shia/mahdist outlets will just move the goal posts.”

I myself will write in Ron Paul before I vote for Bush/Obama part three.

      Bush and Obama are identical in policies yet some of you are gullible enough to believe they are different. Both support Interventionist foreign policy, both expanded government socialized healthcare, both use the federal reserve to stimulate the economy, both have expanded spending. These other candidates are no different.

      I’d rather Obama win. At least he will only discredit Statism when this country falls apart. With any of these other (R) candidates they will end up discrediting capitalism with their corporatist policies that they run under the capitalist banner.

      I believe Ron Paul would do very well as a third party candidate. His views hold up very well to the anti war Democrat and many Independents and republicans that want to return to sound money and small government. Also his rejection of both party’s status quo is huge part of the Tea Party movement before it was hijacked by the Republican party. I would worry more about the Republican nominee diluting the Ron Paul vote than the other way around.

      One Marine to what I assume is another…

      You can either deal with having 4 more years of Obama and watching this nation’s elected leaders become the largest enemies of the Constitution that you swore to protect or you can vote for Ron Paul because no matter what I am not voting for anyone else but Ron. If you all want to elect another Liberty stealing politician that is on you and you will suffer the consequences. If Ron is not on the ballot in my state then I will take the sharpie and write his name in GIANT block letters across the front and make the women running th polling place hand count it. About 10% of the voting public has been and will continue to be Ron Paul supporters and supporters of a constitutionally limited gov’t. That number is only growing by the day and nearly every other supporter that I’ve talked to has expressed the same opinion as I have.

      If you end up with Barack for another 4 years, then you cannot blame us for voting for the Constitution and Ron Paul while you cast a vote for Romney who signed into law socialized medicine, Perry who forced little girls to get STD vaccinations against parental consent and medical reason, or Newt who has proven that he is a career politician who accepts lobby money and despite being Speaker of the House of Representatives did nothing to further the Liberty of the American people or unchain us from mountainous debt.

      You can either help us to help you or deal with the sinking ship by drilling another hole.

      As a Veteran, I swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. I will NEVER waiver from that Oath. From NOW on I will never support a candidate that does not have that same conviction! Ron Paul has that conviction, I know that because I have spent hours reviewing and researching almost every statement, action, vote and speech Ron Paul has made over the last 30 years. Sonce his time in office with Ronald Reagan, he has never changed his stance, taken the easy way out, been swayed by corrupt special interest, voted against liberty or the constitution. He has NEVER faultered to be on the side of the people or their freedoms. EVER!!!

      All of you die hard establishment republican robots better understand that if you guys don’t understand it is time to reject the progressive stance and return our nation to constitutionally limited government, We The People LOSE!! If you vote for another progressive FED backed moron candidate we may as well let mr obama complete his mission. RON PAUL is the ONLY ONE that is NOT OWNED BY THE FED and will NEVER play ball with them!! The FED is the infection, the cause of the cancer and must be dealt with FIRST! Then we can get this country healthy and it’s people happy again. There is no compromising on principal, There is no benefit in slight of hand or false hope. We need tried and true, Red White and Blue. We NEED RON PAUL!!

We are just no there as a nation yet. Especially after all that Obama has built up with unions, leftist movements and causes, and so on. We need to come down the middle first, win the seats in the house and Senate with the Tea Party, then start to bring our country back to order. WE can then elect Rubio …haha Sorry, Paul probably will be on his death bed by that time or at least have dementia kicking in. I think everybody here agree with Paul a great deal, but we all have family, friends, and loved ones who will be in complete loss once if the nipple is ripped from their mouths, We can’t carry them all on our backs just yet.

      @Rational Man That’s it. They don‘t want to be seen like a Nation that can’t deal with her own problems without the US holding their hands. They want to be free and independent. They don’t mind us helping them, as we’ll always be friends, they just don’t want us thinking and acting for them. I was talking to them about Iran and they said Israel should, or would, take care of Iran, irregardless of the US’ position. One important thing to point out about something noted in this debate is this; if we or Israel attacks Iran, there will have to be a regime change. And that will result in more nation building, more debt, and more time spent in a foreign region. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Maybe we should at least consider having a congressional discussion, especially with our new TEA party Congress in 2012, before going any further. And try to seek out Constitutional means to deal with our problems.

      The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure. – George Washington

      The power to declare war, including the power of judging the causes of war, is fully and exclusively vested in the legislature … the executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is or is not cause for declaring war. – James Madison

    And Ron Paul would allow this and actually PROVOKE THIS!

    Ron Paul would also remove our troops in South Korea, and the very next day the North Koreans would invade and kill and or in-prison millions of South Koreans. But the Ron Paul campaign DO NOT care.

    We have not been attacked Ron Paul believes we attacked ourselves as his followers on info wars website believe.

    Bottom line Ron Paul is running on a Fed/ Constitutionalists agenda and 90% INSANE ideas and thoughts and beliefs.

      RON PAUL 2012 !!!!
      Ron Paul knows we are not the world’s police and not a nation that was designed to promote democracy abroad, at times using military force.
      That occurred after the receivers of our 1933 bankruptcy, now running a previous Constitutional Representative Republic, decided to structure America more like a Corporation.
      Ron knows these wars keep us in debt to the federal reserve ( A Private bank ) and finance their military / Industrial complex.
      Ron knows we have to Print our OWN American Money, based on gold and silver and abrogate from a Federal Reserve note, based on speculators !!!!
      As far as Israel goes, They have said that they don’t need our help, and would prefer us to stay out of it.
      Ron also knows about the long term dangers of the Muslim’s worldwide caliphate ideology and will address that issue when the time comes.
      He knows Al Queda attacked because of foreign intervention since 1952. NOT because we are free people or they look to dominate the western world (at this time).
      Who ever said Paul or the U.S. could “allow” a sovereign nation to have or produce anything?
      Our government is to provide for the common defense. NOT provide for the Global offense.
      Let the UN monitor Iran. Let’s quit the UN and Fed. End the IRS, Dept of Agriculture, Education, Energy, TSA, DHS, CIA, FBI, and many other progressive governmental tentacles established since 1913.

      Iran is allied to Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, China, North Korea, Syria, and any other Communist or Radical Nation. Attacking Iran could very well be the start of World War Three. We should not get ahead of ourselves.

      A nuclear war cannot be won, and must never be fought. – Ronald Reagan

      History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap. – Ronald Reagan

      The defense policy of the United States is based on a simple premise: The United States does not start fights. We will never be an aggressor. We maintain our strength in order to deter and defend against aggression – to preserve freedom and peace. – Ronald Reagan

      America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams

      Ronald Reagan spoke in support of Paul’s foreign policy views, stating, “Ron Paul is one of the outstanding leaders fighting for a stronger national defense. As a former Air Force officer, he knows well the needs of our armed forces, and he always puts them first. We need to keep him fighting for our country.”

      @Ookspay In MD, my home state, I got deceived and misled when I went to vote for my first time. In the primaries, I supported the TEA Party candidate for Governor. This candidate never got any recognition from the GOP state establishment or proper representation in the media. He however, without the help of the GOP or the media, got 21-23% of the primary vote, and even up to 30-33% in some counties. He lost against the one chosen by the media and Establishment, the two-face Ehrlich. I was ensured and encouraged to vote for the RINO and moderate Ehrlich. They said, he was the most electable, he was the lesser of two evils, hold your nose in the booth, we must vote together, anyone but O’Maley, he has more experience in high office, he has the most money and public recognition, he can’t loose, he’s moderate and may sway democrat voters, he’s not too conservative and may work with the democrats to pass laws, ETC. So, come election day, though I already had a feeling about the results of all this BS being spouted, I did my duty as a Party member and voted for Ehrlich. Of course, we lost. No, not only the election, but we had lost also our old ways of being free and independent, of saying no to wrongs, doing the right things even if we’re the only ones doing them, seeking the truth and standing by it.

      I’ve never said I would not vote for the GOP nominee if it was not Paul. I keep an open mind and take into consideration everything at hand. But I don’t forget.

      Colt,

      You are well informed regarding the issues and also have an intensity that gives me hope. In 2008, I supported Dr. Paul in the primaries. However, living in Ohio it didn’t matter all that much, the race was over by the time we voted. I was sickened when John McCain was our nominee, but I did vote for him. It didn’t matter whom we nominated, no-one could have beaten Obama in 2008! The left and minorities wanted a victory more than we did and the media ushered in BO. The Conservative base of the GOP were sold out, and we were not inspired at all, many stayed home. We as a party needed to learn that lesson and rediscover our conservative values and principles. It will take time to reclaim and implement them completely, we lost the public trust.

      This Country is split down the middle, left, right and the pendulum constantly swings, that’s a good thing I think. Reaching too far in any direction, only leads to division and dissension, like we see today. Ron Paul IS the truest Conservative in the race, but most Americans will not see the wisdom in his policies and he will be vilified and face impossible odds in congress and the press. Thus the reason for incremental change. Show the public the wisdom of Conservative-Libertarian principles at work and slowly change minds and policies.

      The TEA Party and true conservatives have made a course correction within the GOP and I think the Rove, Crystal, Krauthammer, progressive wing of the party are slowly getting the me

      @ookspay I like your reasoning here. It’s very sensible and much appreciated. As always, I’ll stay the course; but sometimes it’s times like these that call for an immediate revaluation. We must for the sake of sanity and success always question, investigate, examine, review, inquire and share our discoveries and conclusions. Truth never fails. We must always seek the righteous path and never loose sight of our goals. We certainly must be wise in the solutions we seek in this Political and National mess we’re in.

      what he actually said was that he would not tie israel’s hands like we have in the past. If elected Paul would be US president not world police chief or schoolyard bully. wouldn’t be nice to have an American president that actually took his job serious and was president for ALL AMERICANS. the best way to help other countries is for the US to be a strong bastian of LIBERTY

      @techengineer11 As opposed to polarizing the Middle east against us.. Oh, wait it is already happening. Our foreign policy has opened up so many openings to attack the US it is not even funny. Using our own foreign policy any country can justifiably use drones and kill innocent people just because they think there are terrorist in our country. Assassinating leaders, no problem, US did it. Hell our foreign policy has made it a necessity for every country to build nukes. Look at Libya. They abandoned their Nuclear program and look at what happened. Hell, the US actively turns against its allies. Egypt learned this the hard way.

      People complained about the Mosque in New York because it is a symbol of conquest. WTF do you think Muslims feel about the US military bases in their country which are launching points for indiscriminate drone attacks.

It is disgusting how the world treats the Jews. Israel did not ask the USA to fight on their side. Israel did not ask to send the USA troops to fight for them. Israel fights for the existence since 1948. No one solder of the USA got killed fighting for Israel. So, drop the crap. Israel needs moral, political, veapon (paid)support that is all.
