  2. And here is another BIG problem for Paul. If he does get warm, this will go viral.

  3. That moniker will not stick because Ron Paul is not a racist. Here, let him explain it to you in his own words:

    The establishment has wheeled that tired accusation (newsletters he did not write and his nuanced position on the Civil Rights Act) out each and every time he's run for office and it has never stuck. Even the NAACP has defended Ron Paul against the charges of racism.

    That's hardly the sort of thing they would do for David Duke...just sayin'.

  5. Ever heard of the lizard brain?

    Im asking because of what I about to say next, which is not logical.

    My lizard brain says that Paul is not a racist. He is not a threat to my survival. But, there is enuf out there that the media can, and will, slam Paul hard. They WILL pull the Stormfront card.

    He needs to do like Bush47 did and crush verbally any groups that believe he might support their positions by default of his own. He needs to give the money back to Mr. Black, and say, publicly and aggressively, that he does not support hate groups.

    Oddly, I do not argue with "White Pride World Wide". If white pride would stop there. Historically, however, it never has. It has always ended with either slavery or genocide, without exception. So if Paul rejects the notion of one group trying to dominate another, he should state in no uncertain terms.

  6. Had to look that one up. That you've already admitted your conclusion is illogical precludes any need on my part to respond to it; however, while we are here, true libertarians are incapable of racism because we do not see people as members of groups, but rather, as individuals.

    Now, if that is not enough to assuage your lizard brain, or anyone else's, here is a quote by Ron Paul concerning the War on Drugs:

    Q: If you are elected president in 2008, what positive and significant legacy, if any, will you leave for Black Americans?
    A: I would like to believe that if we had a freer society, it would take care of Blacks and whites and everybody equally because we’re all individuals. To me, that is so important. But if we had equal justice under the law, I think it would be a big improvement. If we had probably a repeal of most of the federal laws on drugs and the unfairness on how Blacks are treated with these drugs laws, it would be a tremendous improvement. And also, I think that if you’re going to have prosperity, it serves everybody. And if this is done by emphasizing property rights and freedom of the individuals, making sure that the powerful special interests don’t control Washington, that the military industrial complex doesn’t suck away all the wealth of the country, and then we would have prosperity.

    Now, if you can find me a white nationalist who says blacks are treated unfairly in ANYTHING, let alone the war on drugs, you will have gone far in validating your lizard brain's illogical conclusion. Failure to do so means you can tell your lizard brain, and all the other voices in your head to stfu. Go.

  7. You misread my post, it could be my fault.
    We are on the same page, so I will not retaliate.
