The Military Supports Ron Paul's "crazy" Foreign Policy

[Catchin22]

I got the top contributions from opensecrets.org. The charts of donation comparisons are all over the net and Ron Paul has brought this fact up many times during debates and has never been disputed. He has an ad in Florida showing these stats and you know damn well MSM would be all over that shit if it wasn't true. Instead they pretend it doesn't exist.

Nobody takes him seriously enough to get on his case and dispute him usually. And RP is notorious for bringing a lot of shit up that's not true as a fact.

i remember back in high school, i scored pretty damn high on my asvab, basically 99.9th percentile on everything except mechanics and electric. combined with the fact that i spoke about 5 languages, they recruited me hard. made all sorts of promises about how young i could retire. i almost bit.

looking back over 10 years later, man am i glad i declined.

just random thoughts.

Ahh i went the other way.
5 years as a Marine Corps grunt. Got a high G.T score and ASVAB but didn't want to do a silly desk job.
Now finishing my P.A program ( Physician Assistant) with zero $ in debt and a nice chunk saved up as a matter of fact.
Glad i decided to join.

lol yah, bailout banks. Obama has some wallstreet banks on his as well. Obamas contributions come from a lot of colleges and universities as well.

I am sure there are some there but those look like all Tech companies and law firms to me.

I did my 4 years in the Air Force, about to have my bachelors in economics

i have a meager living, fair amount of debt, and no BS to show for it, but i sure had a lot of fun in college and i did meet a pretty nice lady who now has my last name

i was damn close to that BS, too. if only i had more of a military type of discipline

Check out where Mittens gets his support from, big surprise there. I am at least glad to see Obama gets most of his money from Tech companies.

Checkout where obama gets HIS support from on his last campaign compared to mittens this time around..nearly identical..goldman sachs and associates...The mafia...Do you want to see how deep this rabbit hole goes? Do you want to see why we are passionate about Dr Paul and Liberty?

The establishment doesn't want Ron Paul as evidence by the media blackout and smear campaign, as evidenced by the finances, the headlines, political philosophy, history, philosophy, the lobbyist.. it is all right there in front of our faces. Libertarians have fought against this 'Machine' for hundreds of years they have been buried. The corporations and the government is in bed together as evidenced further by the Corporate Media. They have us fighting for one party who advocates personal liberties and one for economic liberties just how they want it because when one gains so does the other.

Ron Paul has stood by libertarian principles and he has voted no repeatedly for decades. The corruptician's do not come to Ron Paul because they are frightened. "It would be a mistake" - Former Bush Staffer.

Throughout the years there has been many Republican's that use Libertarianism as a guise. They call it conservatism, it is not, Glenn Beck is not a Libertarian. Ron Paul is a libertarian.

Throughout the years there has been many Democrats that use Libertarianism as a guise, My friends, it is not. They call it Democracy and Liberalism, it is not. Obama is not a libertarian.

But, you...yes even you...You are a libertarian. You are born in America and raised the American way believing in the American Dream. You do not wish the corporations to do ill upon humanity, You do not wish for the government to do this. You advocate for people and that is why you...You are a libertarian.

Well, first of all, why is his foreign policy crazy? We should make the argument there. The only people advocating such an overextended military empire, are the politicians, head military officials, and ground troops all agree with ron paul, maybe not to such an extent, but the theory of blowback is always there, Its OUR fault people hate us. Even our allies hate us, theyre tired of handing our hands in the background of their government, Australia has recently accepted the its first us base, despite protests. Japan continues to protest our military bases there for THEIR DEFENCE... And our european friends suck up to us when theres some financial shit going down "that we should unite to save the world economy", but when times are good all they want to due is criticize us. Seriously, are these results of a successful foreign policy?

You don't have to agree with him completely, but he is the only candidate that makes sense, regarding foregin policy. Re: Cuba other candidates are instantly, yeh lets send our secret service and reimpose our embargoes to force them to accept democracy. Instead of congratulating the cuban people, that their oppressor has finally died and they are now free. If the people know they have a free country to the north thats willing to help them find democracy, they will rise and defeat and remnants of the oppressive regime, not nation building but by setting an example for all other nations to follow.

Brought a tear to my eye. Not. Thanks for informing me of my beliefs and applying your own label to them. And while the media may be in the pockets of others just because they ignore your candidate does not mean it's for that reason. RP is an extremest, a bigot, a racist and wants to revert the country to pre civil war era. THAT is why he is being ignored, but he does have a nice ignorant cult behind him for support.

Then why is Newt Gingrich get hours of interviews a day and tons of articles? You think the corporate whore media cares about your welfare? They only care about lining their pockets and proliferating..

 

[Catchin22]

So you're saying RP and NG ideology and goals are the same?

I am saying newt Gingrich is a bigot and racist out in the open and he gets lots of good articles and good tv time. Your logic was that since RP is allegedly a bigot and racist that this is why the media blacks him out and smears him, as if the media cares about people.

 

[deprave]

In your false belief that the media cares about people and perhaps your likely belief in our democracy ultimately Edward Bernay's was very succusfull with you and people like you. Bernay's pioneered propaganda to manipulate a representative capitalist democracy such as ours.

In the video below Jerry Day elleqently examines the media blackout of Ron Paul. In the video he analyzes google trends statics and concludes the a canididates popularity is directly proportional to how the media potrays them with one exception Ron Paul.

Like what? what shit? The NAFTA highway? You don't know crap, he didn't say they were definitely going through with it. But that there were talks about it, and many proposals to extend highways, to achieve something like this. Maybe you should check your facts.

If you have anything to get on his case, maybe you should dispute him. Notoriously known my ass.

 

[Doobius1]

i know enough to not want to volunteer in some pointless war.

.

This proves it!!!
Uncle Buck = Newt Gingrich (all mouth no action coward)
Wish I could vote RP. Im from Canada and can objectively see why the rest of the world hates the US. Its sure not cause u r all so well to do. Start minding your own business. It already may be too late for RP to fix things Those Arabs are planning something huger than 9/11. They are just waiting for your complacency to kick back in. They got all the time in world as the grandkids grandkids are gonna be hating on you. This time could be your water or food they go after. They arent gonna bomb a building, they want to bring America down! Save yourself from yourself America... Vote Ron Paul!!!

so in other words what your saying is..."Don't call me a people lover bitch"

You are getting confused... It is Ron Paul that is the Racist.

Gingrich wants more black people to have paychecks. And the last time I checked, that wasnt racist.

 

[Shaggy Green]

that's really saying something when you can convince a bunch of (primarily) young people who volunteered for a pointless war to donate to your pointless campaign.

DAMN YOUR just a raging fucking idiot all the time! Your narrow-mind is a problem for those even pretending to be your friend here HERO! Let me guess, This statement, so full of bullshit, you have learned from your long-illustrious fucked up life where you wish to impose all of your hate, shit talk, and stupidity on us all on a medical marijuana forum? GROW UP and get a hobby...you run your mouth around here like it is toilet and shit everywhere in which your mouth hasn't tainted...tired of listening to your uneducated, out-dated, babble! You sound like a very sad individual that needs serious help!

Though I will admit as much as "young people" bring in the vote you "fucking old people" that continue to run this country into the ground by blaming it on the "young people" doesn't help the country either.

Here is some advise, start making some valued comments on threads yourself before you call other people in other threads trolls...ASSHOLE!


Back to the point of the thread:

Just left the Army myself. I joined before everything went down in 9/11. Joined to take care of my family; better lifestyle, all that good stuff. I am actually shocked if military members would provide that much support. Many are very conservative. Even more shocked after some statements Ron Paul has made about the military.

i remember back in high school, i scored pretty damn high on my asvab, basically 99.9th percentile on everything except mechanics and electric. combined with the fact that i spoke about 5 languages, they recruited me hard. made all sorts of promises about how young i could retire. i almost bit.

looking back over 10 years later, man am i glad i declined.

just random thoughts.

Really? 99.9%...the asvab is not measured by a normal grade system. Your scores would place you in the top 5% of all recruits who ever took the asvab. When I was in the military I worked as a recruiter...and let me tell you your inflated lie doesn't help your original trolling comment!
