meet the candidate- RON PAUL
<font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif" size="1">Whether you're a red state Republican or a blue state Democrat, everyone is welcome — just remember to be civil.</font>
Rick Perry bowed out - we have 4 GOP candidates left. Since he is the only anti-war candidate (including Obama...) I support Ron Paul and I want everybody here to know more about him of course I will

this is Ron Paul speaking to crowds in Maryland (C-SPAN) 4/2/12 (I recommend listening to it for people who do not understand his policies- he explains a lot!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEFF8FmElSk |

I have not heard anyone call Paul a racist, though some try to argue that Republicans do not support black people which is a lie. |

I listened to him in the debates which I think helped to force all candidates to speak of their positions. This should become mandatory and should be continued in the final election campaigns where at least 4 debates would occur. |

i do agree about debates!! There is a danger however that voters will judge not by policies but by appearances. not who is smart but who looks good an is a smooth talker... Gingrich did well in debates ... i think media are too powerful in electing our president: now papes discuss already race Obama - Romney! They chose Romney- not Americans! Not yet, and hopefully never. Someone here called Ron Paul a racist, which is not true. That video is about lies of Obama http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZJpU9WNGCk&feature=fvst |

Stilll thinkg about debates: Americans, thanks to media, tend to value looks, even over brains. not the policies- but who looks good on camera... I really think Ron Paul is best for Americans with his policy on spending money here not abroad, but for media Romney looks better....(not for me!) |

Unfortunately appearances does play a part for stupid people. Good looks do not make a government run better. I do not think Lincoln looked that great but he is one of the best presidents we have had. Obama ran on CHANGE. People should have asked what CHANGE. For me change is neutral since it does not mean good or bad for it depends on what the change is. Now we face some of OBAMA's CHANGES and I think they stink. |

Posted by Astra2012 One of the classic cases was the Nixon amd Kennedy debate where many felt Nixon lost support because of his lack of makeup in the debate. Consider me odd, but I think Paul looks good on camera but that is not how I vote. |
