Paul comes across as simply another way out there fringe candidate.

Paul is a decent guy with many good ideas. I think he's a refreshing change from the usual Tweedledum and Tweedledumber Washington pols. I'm glad he's in the House.

That being said, he is unelectable as Pres and, at least at this time, I find Rudy to be the best of the viable candidate bunch and orders of magnitude better than any of the Dems..

So, why waste your time when you could work for a credible candidate with a real shot at the WH?

You do not tire of asking me that question... I believe for the third time today. My last reply on the subject was words to the effect that if you read my posts in their entirety you would find the answer.

However, I will simplify it for you and tell you the others are simply scum bags,liars, hypocrites, self serving opportunists, cheats, and beholden to those interests who put them in office.

Paul is simply an honest, principled man who chooses to not follow the path of your garden variety politician. He has no PACS or special interest groups backing him, consequently, he speaks to the issues as he views them within the confines of the Constitution - the rule of law, or so we would like to think for this republic.

Again, I suggest you read his statements on the issues and educate yourself. You may be surprised what you would learn with respect to how our government operates outside the Constitution.

He believes in playing by the rules and so do I. He believes in the Bill of Rights and so do I. That is not necessarily the position of the rest of Congress, the Supreme Court, and the administration.
