At most 10% of the American people are in the "it's our fault they hate us........" Ron Paul blah, blah, blah garbage camp. The guy is a racist, anti-Semitic nut case and has absolutely zero chance of winning the nomination. His walking away from the CNN interview is hilarious. Oh.............excuse us for exposing your reticence about racist and anti-Semitic articles in a news letter you owned, never read and handsomely profited from 20 yrs ago. Move along..........nothing to see here. I'd put an LOL here if it wasn't so pathetic.

Thanks, but he's nuttier than Kucinich. Amazing some of the people who can get elected to Congress.

You are mistaken about Ron Paul. His candidacy is not the cure, it is a symptom of the disease. It is strange that so many Americans are seriously considering a person with such fringe beliefs. Maybe those are the same folks who brought us Obama, and now are disappointed - and ready for more heady experimentations. Message 27830376 As for Afghanistan, recall that back in those days the Soviets were the the big imperialistic danger. They actually were. Btw, their leader in 1979 was not Gorby, it was... whatsis name... Leonid Brezhnev. He started the war. Gorby lost it. And yes, the anti-soviet fighters back then were the good guys, and they helped take down the Soviet empire. But - things changed. The war against the Soviet (imperialistic) invasion merged with the emerging global jihad, and they became one. Don't know about you, but I was unable to foresee this 30 years ago.
