Rubbish he probably wants to abolish the whole republic.
hes a constitutionalist not an anti-statist moron

he wants to abolish Federal departments that shouldn't exist and give power back to the states.

Hardly abolishing the republic, more like restoring the republic to what it once was

Wants are different to official policies.

did you just compare BN to RP? BAHAHA ok whatever
That's Dr Nelson to you. Edit: Brendan Nelson did actually get somewhere in his 20 or so years in public life. What was the height of Paul's career? Chairman of the Financial services subcommittee. Oooh scary.

so either have sound money OR OR keep having economic collapses and run away inflation till America collapses like the Roman Empire did, where it got to the point where bartering was the preferred method of exhange

lol hes not gonna go all gold standard straight away

just gonna get rid of the thing that creates the inflation, the FED, and he is also going to make gold and silver legal tender again along side fiat currency

the only reason we went off sound money is because among other things the yanks couldn't afford Vietnam anymore so they went hmmmm hey why don't we just print the money???? and then we had the end of the continuous post war prosperity

"We cut government spending by 60% and cut taxes by 30% after WW2, and even with the millions people returning home from the war, we finally started getting back to work again and the depression finally ended" (paraphrase) - Ron Paul

aka government spending doesn't help FDR was an idiot

need to cut spending and waste before we can have prosperity brah, no where better to start than government jobs that contribute nothing and shouldn't exist under the laws of the US Constitution

by nobody you mean some government bureaucrats? The US is already in trouble and spending trillions of dollars doesn't help, the fact that I have to say trillion, so should make it clear how absurd the whole of idea of stimulus spending is. The US is going to get much worse regardless of who is in office, the government can't make things better, they can only make it worse. Stop the spending, lower the taxes, and allow markets to work for once

empirically I'm right so whatever
You might be but it's neither her nor there when someone asks what voters will do as opposed to what they should do. You are projecting your own views onto the electorate.

if ron paul was elected the red shield would orchestrate his assassination. JFK tried to tamper with the fed and they got him.
