Hilary won't win. Every card carrying Democrat and self-proclaimed liberal that I know pwersonally hates her. They all want Obama to get the ticket. The air of inevitabiliy shep uts off is just that; an air.

There is no such thing as an "honest" or "dishonest" candidate; merely an image as created by their PR committee. Ron Paul is the same, inspite of the mass fanboyism for him online.

That's whats called an image. All politicians have it. There is nothing particularly special about Ron Paul, in is views or in how he presents them.

As for his policies, most of them are untennable unless he was dictator. His entire presidency would be him fighting congress, Republican or Democrat, it makes no difference. The policies he states aren't the kind of thing one can do in either 4 or 8 years. And as for the actual policies, while a few of his policies I agree with, there are other policies I vehemanantly oppose which I will not go into here. I'm merely gonna state that right now none of the candidates are anything special. And won't be until the race gets closer.

You can weigh the issues however much you want. Doesn't change a thing.

As for the mass pull out in Iraq and diplomacy, that was not what I was referring to. I'm talking about domestic policy.

I would hope not, the American people simply aren't ready for the full legalization of all drugs

Let him fight Congress over his domestic agenda. Even if his foreign policy is the only item on his agenda that he successfully enacts, that is a huge step forward for this country. But too bad most voters are too dull to think things like these through.

Yes......retreat and defeat, hiding behind our borders like disgusting cowards, pretending Islamofascism and Iran will never ever try to attack us.........right.

This is why I can't and won't ever vote for Ron Paul.

Allow me to explain why drugs should be legalized; illegalization of narcotics doesn't work. It just simply creates crime, as stated by Dr. Paul himself: "We treat alcoholism now as a medical problem and I, as a physician, think we should treat drug addiction as a medical problem and not as a crime."

Not to mention that many of these illegal drugs have very useful purposes in medicine. The problem is that the War on Drugs and enforcing drug laws is a waste of money that can be better spent elsewhere.

Have you ever heard Imadenamja-whatever his name is talk? Ever? How many "death to America" rallys over there do you need to see?

They have nukes, their president is insane. He's a flaming anti-semite, who is actively funding and equiping the terrorists in Iraq. We're already engaged in a proxy war with Iran.

But to answer your question directly, they hate us because we're not like them, an oppresive, sexist, Islamic theocracy.

Wrong answers. They hate us because for decades we have meddled in their international affairs. For decades we have built military bases and equipment in their back yard. They hate us because we appear like an Imperialist mega-power that's threatening to stamp out their religion and way of life.

Furthermore, Iran is not funding the terrorists in Iraq. Iran actually supports the new Iraqi government because they utterly loathed Saddam's regime that came before (Iran and Iraq used to be bitter enemies, lest you forget). The terrorists are primarily funded by Saudi nationals, and always have been.

Furthermore, there is no evidence that Iran has nuclear arms. President Ahmadinejad spouts the things he says because he believes that America and Israel and the rest of the West are Imperialists that seek to destroy Islam.
