A post in The Medium blog that appeared on Monday about the Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul and his purported adoption by white supremacist and neo-Nazi groups contained several errors. Stormfront, which describes itself as a "white nationalist" Internet community, did not give money to Ron Paul's presidential campaign; according to Jesse Benton, a spokesman for Paul's campaign, it was Don Black, the founder of Stormfront, who donated $500 to Paul. The original post also repeated a string of assertions by Bill White, the commander of the American National Socialist Workers Party, including the allegation that Paul meets regularly "with members of the Stormfront set, American Renaissance, the Institute for Historic Review and others" at a restaurant in Arlington, Va. Paul never attended these dinners, according to Benton, who also says that Paul has never knowingly met Bill White.

Isn't this the same New York Times that just hired New World Order shill Bill Kristol??

I heard Dr. Paul say things in the debates that made me cheer.

1. Bring the troops home from the 130 countries and 700 bases world wide.

2. Abolish the income tax and IRS.

3. Protect our sovereignty.

4. Repeal the unconstitutional laws such as the Patriot Act.

5. Return to the gold standard.

When Nixon took the American system completely off of the gold standard it gave all the power to the bankers and gave them no accountability to the American public.
Nixon was connected to Prescott Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld.
We are reliving the authoritarian ideals today that Nixon symbolized.
Nixon received much of his power from Senator Prescott Bush. The Bush family has four generations of profiting from wars and creating misery around the world.
Ron Paul stands against such naked aggression such as the illegal war and occupation of Iraq.
I have yet to hear one serious Democratic preidential contender talk about an immediate withdraw.
Hillary wants to EXPAND the army. The rest will not commit to withdrawing by 2013.
Dr. Paul makes the imperialist cringe when he speaks since he talks about following the rule of law. If we follow the Rule of Law, I feel that we would need to hold Public Treason Trials against this administration.
I can't yell fire in a crowded theater without being held accountable yet they took a nation to war on threats of a "mushroom cloud".
A vote for Dr. Paul is a vote for peace.
Please google and watch "JFK II" to understand how the people that killed Kennedy are still in power today. These are the people that are the enemies of Democracy and Americas best interest.
Peace,

Ron Beats Rudy?
Wall Street Journal
December 29, 2007; Page A10

Manchester, N.H.

[...] Mr. Paul, an obstetrician from Lake Jackson, Texas, could pull off a stunner on Jan. 8 and place third in New Hampshire's Republican primary. If he does, he would embarrass Rudy Giuliani and steal media limelight from John McCain and Mitt Romney, who are battling for first place.

Many Republican operatives in New Hampshire, even those affiliated with other campaigns, think Mr. Paul is headed for an impressive, double-digit performance. That he has been polling in the high single digits for months is discounted, because the polls may be missing the depth of his support.

Why? For starters, he appears to be drawing new voters. Polls that screen for "likely" voters might screen out many Paul supporters who haven't voted often, or at all, before. Many of Mr. Paul's supporters appear to be first-time voters. They will be able to cast their ballots because New Hampshire allows them to register and vote on the day of an election.
[...]
There is another reason to discount the polls on Mr. Paul. The one thing that unites his supporters is a desire to be left alone, not only by government, but by irritating marketers and meddling pollsters, too. Mr. Paul's supporters might well be screening their calls and not-so-inadvertently screening out pollsters.
[...]
But everyone agrees that Mr. Paul draws an unusual mix of libertarians, fiscally conservative Democrats, conservative Republicans, home-schoolers, vegans, gambling aficionados, anti-abortion activists and others who want the government to butt out of some aspect of their lives.

But will they get out to vote on primary day?

"I've never seen a group of people that are this energetic about a candidate," Mr. Murphy said. "It's something else."
[...]
National attention is focused on the horse races between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and between Messrs. McCain and Romney. But the shy obstetrician from Texas could be the surprise story of the New Hampshire primary.

Ron Paul is a racist!

A 1992 political newsletter by former Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, included portrayals of African-Americans as inclined toward crime and lacking sense about political issues, the Houston Chronicle reported Thursday. Paul, a former Libertarian Party presidential candidate who defeated Democratic-turned-Republican Rep. Greg Laughlin in the March primary, in November will face Democratic attorney Charles (Lefty) Morris, whose campaign is distributing Paul's writings.

Under the headline "Terrorist Update," Paul reported on gang crime in Los Angeles and wrote, "If you have ever been robbed by a black teenaged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be." About blacks in Washington, D.C., Paul wrote, "I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal." Paul said Wednesday that his comments came in the context of "current events and statistical reports of the time," and that he opposes racism.

Democrats - They'll 'end the war' in 10 or 20 years " you can"t trust these f#ckers.

HANOVER, N.H., Sept. 26 " The three leading Democratic presidential candidates refused on Wednesday night to promise that they would withdraw all American troops from Iraq by the end of their first term, saying in a televised debate here that they could not predict the future challenges in Iraq.

Since I live in New Hampshire, on January 8, 2008, I'll be voting for Ron Paul. A man of principle who voted against the Iraq War and the Patriot Act. Something which Hillary Clinton and John Edwards cannot say.

RON PAUL SUPPORTED BY NAZIS! SPOUTING NAZI SLOGANS! ohwaitnevermind.

I'm not a fan of Paul, but this kind of BS, in the "respected" (by who?) NYT, is boilerplate propaganda. Everyone remembers the initial headlines, but never the retractions. Same old swiftboating garbage. It's despicable, no matter who it's aimed at.

We don't have to make stuff up about Ron Paul - his own words are sufficient to understand his fringe status.
Ohg.

Ron Paul gets down on his knees each day to thank God for Duncan Hunter and Alan Keyes...they keep him from looking like the MOST PATHETIC LOSER in the 08 race.
