Raun Paul is the most resonable Guy i have found in the US senate .......

Ron Paul, as someone has already said, is a dying breed. There are groups in this country that want the government to hold their hand throughout their life. Other groups believe America is the best country in the world, and it can do no wrong. ron Paul was shunned by both of these groups during the election because he believed in state's rights and personal responsibility. He personally peeved off a bunch of people in his own party when he dared to mention that America was partially responsible for 9-11. People took this, his willingness to re-investigate 9-11, and the unfortunate cult following of the truth movement that seemed to love him so - and they smeared him. They made him out to be some sort of anti-American Truth movement loonie. There was a bunch of other problems, but his foreign policy was probably the biggest deal - that, and his desire to get rid of the IRS and other unnecessary government programs. He was an excellent choice for president, and really could have done us some good. Unfortunately, he was not a media darling, and he only made headlines when he got a lot of money, or his supporters did something stupid. The fact of the matter is, the less the media mentions you, the less likely you're going to be voted for. That's just how America works most of the time.

I voted for Ron Paul. He would have been a great president....but I guess we are stuck with him being a great senator. His policies are really common sense. But unforunately a lot of people did not bother to get to know him during the election.

Dr. Paul is one of the few congress who realy understand the constitution and the importance of governing by it. After he lost the primaries, he began endorsing the guy I voted for, chuck Baldwin, a guy with vies very much the same. Ron Paul got creamed in the primaries because of his views on foriegn policy, the media not paying nearly enough attention to hi and the 9/11 truth movement that followed him like the plague. The problem here is the media and the two big parties are heavily vested in each other, Paul didn't go along with the mainline views of his party and was shunned by the media and the party. Sadly guys like Dr. Paul are a dieing breed because people just don't care enough about whats going onaround them and are too lazy to take part in educating themselves to the truth of things. They also seem to actualy want the federal government doing everything instead of operating under the constitutional federal republican system that was intended.

I like the phrase "economic terrorism". For many timies, IMF and WorldBank are used as political weapon.
