Congressman Ron Paul initially seemed like he had a huge reason to smile with his thousands of supporters, known to be mainly based on the world wide web, backing his every decision and following his every word.
However, more people are beginning to open their eyes to see the real Ron Paul as more and more unfolds with some almost ludicrous ideas that he proposes.
My personal opinion is that he’s almost grabbed his ’supporters’ on a leesh and hypnotized them in order to follow and agree with his every idea.
As a follower of politics and current affairs, I am interested in what many politicians and congressmen have to say and how they bring their ideas forward. Also, how these suggestions may benefit myself personally and my community, my whole country on the large scale.
Ron Paul may have won over a tonne of supporters by sweet-talking them but have these people really listened to what Ron Paul is all about?
Here is a list of seven facts that have been put together that show a completely different side to the Dr Paul we are all hearing about.
- Ron Paul believes in conspiracy theories.
- Ron Paul votes to protect constitutional rights of child predators instead of children rights.
- Ron Paul is a political opportunist.
- Ron Paul is a documented hypocrite.
- Ron Paul thinks we’d be safer without the CIA.
- He has said Iran has no military.
- Paul has voted against funding our troops while in combat.
Many will be interested in knowing whether these ‘facts’ have been spewed out and totally made up in order to ruin Ron Paul’s built reputation, in order to sabotage the support of his people.
Well I can can confirm that there is evidence, quotes, Youtube videos and more in order to support the seven statements made about Ron Paul above, all of which can be found here.
As ever, many people will disagree with the way in which I have presented Ron Paul and I do agree with them in that he obviously has some ideas that can be beneficial to the American way.
His ideas on health care and health insurance interest me and I am glad that he concerned of America’s health service because it is undoubtedly in desperate need of attention. In comparison to Europe’s health insurance and the sort, America is lagging behind and do indeed need to catch up as it really is a significant issue that needs to be addressed. More on Ron Paul concerning Healthcare, here.
However in my personal opinion, I truly believe that a man with the beliefs as mentioned above has no place in a US government.
“More inflation is, however, never the answer to inflation.”
The truth is that business involves risk, and businesses that miscalculate risk should be liquidated, so their assets can be reallocated to businesses that correctly judge risk and make profits.
“Instead, the Fed has injected $64 billion into the jittery markets, effectively amounting to a bailout that keeps these malinvestments afloat, but eventually they will become the undoing of our economy.” said Dr. Paul last month.
Ron Paul brings forth ideas concerning mortgages, businesses and loans insisting that those businesses that miscalculated risks should be liquidated leaving those that judge correctly to rake in the finance. Personally, I don’t think this is fair and thankfully the harsh reality that he sees isn’t existent.
Do you agree with me? Do you disagree with me? Let us know what you think of Dr. Paul.

Update:
Read Daniels View: it’s plain to see, the people and comments are voting Ron Paul

Ron Paul is an honest man. He is not a “documented hypocrite”
I wonder how many of us are undocumented hypocrites.
“Everytime there is a negative OP-ED,blog piece on the net about RP, you’ll find MANY PAGES of comments defending him.
Spammers? Absolutely not.
Supporters?
YES! And they’re increasing in numbers EVERY DAY.”
Amen brother. Every single negative comment just fuels my love for Liberty, and I know that the non-arguments just bring more people to understanding our point of view.
Thanks Poster, because every “Ron Paul Sucks” article gets his message out there to more people.
My God… what an ill-informed piece of garbage that article was. “Ron Paul believes in conspiracy theories… Ron Paul wears ladies’ undergarments… Ron Paul eats small children during the full moon.”
Ryan, like a lot of people, seems to think we should all just “bend over and take it.” The government says “Jump!” and we should ask “How high?” Submission may be your thing, Ryan, but some of us have had it with being screwed.
Wow…seven straw man arguments against Ron Paul. Maybe the people of America should be given more credit than that. We are no longer going to follow the media’s misrepresentation of a man whose entire congressional record and speeches are available for all to see and read. Maybe you should have done your homework instead of repeating such weak arguments against such a strong man.
ryan,
your ignorance is showing.
That’s why he’s won the last 6 Straw Polls, because he’s so unpopular. . .
That’s why he has the 3rd most Campaign money, because he’s so unpopular. . .
That’s why he’s got more of a passionate base of supporters than any other candidate (40,000 Meetup members), because he’s just so unpopular. . .
That’s why he got so much applause from the audience at the last GOP debate, because he’s just so damn unpopular!
Sorry bud but you’re in the minority.
Don’t listen to these idiot experts try and tell us the hopelessness of it all, remember the phrase “nobody ever built a statue to a critic.”

Join the REVOLUTION to take back our country!
The “facts” you mention are very short and you don’t go into detail. Well lets for example talk about this one….
Ron Paul believes in conspiracy theories.
Now most people would call it a conspiracy theory how the federal reserve controls, raises interest, prints money with no congressional oversight - and that even the president and congress have no power over.
So yes, he does believe in conspiracies. But they can also be called facts. And since he has a thurough understaning of economics he can better manage our country in my opinion.
Ok here is another:
Ron Paul votes to protect constitutional rights of child predators instead of children rights.
Ron Pauls position on constitutional rights is simply that everyone, no matter the race, color, sexual orientation, appearance, intelligence level or income should have the same rights as everyone else.
That means that even people who do horrible crimes should be treated fairly. Your actually wrong in stating he would give child predators more rights in some way then the victims of that kind of crime.
I can go on, but your arguments are very broad and misleading. You really should learn more about Ron Paul because he is not such a simple minded person as your article might lead people to believe.
what a misguided limey piece of shit. You must be invested in sub prime paper to want a bail out. As they say down under —- fuck off mate.
IT’S A WELL KNOWN FACT THAT THE CIA IS THE BIGGEST DRUG ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD, AND THEY RUTHLESSLY WIPE OUT THEIR COMPETITION. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE VIETNAM WAR,WHEN DRUGS,MOSTLY OPIUM, WERE FLOWN OUT ON AIR AMERICA PLANES IN THE COFFINS OF DEAD AMERICAN SOLDIERS. AND RETURNING ADDICTED SOLDIERS WERE USED AS MULES.
THEY HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN OVERTHROWING LEGITIMATE GOVERNMENTS AND LEADERS THE ADMINISTRATION DID’NT LIKE.
THEY ARE THE TOOLS THAT ARE NOW BEING USED TO SUBVERT AND ATTACK IRAN BECAUSE, WHO,LIKE IRAQ AND VENEZUALA, REFUSE TO ACCEPT AMERICAN DOLLARS BECAUSE OF IT’S 3 TO 4 CENT VALUE.
MANY COUNTRIES LOOK AT THE DOLLAR AS THEY WOULD A THIRD WORLD CURRENCY, AND ARE BEING VERY SKEPTICAL ABOUT EVEN THE EURO.
CHINA’S CURRENCY IS BEING MORE ACCEPTED THAN OURS. SHAME!
THE QUESTION IS WHY??? WHY IS IT THAT THE STRONGEST,MOST ACCEPTED CURRENCY IN THE WORLD IS NOW BEING DUMPED
IT’S FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT WE WENT OFF THE GOLD AND SILVER STANDARD IN THE FIFTIES, AND SINCE THEN THERE HAS BEEN A STEADY DECLINE IN THE VALUE OF THE DOLLAR.
ALL THE BLAME CAN BE LAID AT THE FEET OF THE CRIMINALS WHO OWN THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANK.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON’T REALIZE IT YET, THE FED IS A PRIVATE BANK,AND BECAUSE OF IT’S POLICIES, THEY NOW OWN AMERICA.
ALL THIS CAME ABOUT WHEN PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON SIGNED THE ILLEGAL FEDERAL RESERVE ACT, AND GAVE AWAY THE POWER TO CREATE MONEY TO PRIVATE BANKERS WHO RUN ROUGH SHOD OVER OUR RIGHTS UNDER THE GUISE OF TAKING CARE OF OUR CURRENCY. PEOPLE LIKE REICH AND GREENSPAN ARE CRIMINALS.
WHAT THEY HAVE DONE UNDER THE THEIR MADE UP BANKING LAWS IS TO RIP US OFF THROUGH THE INTERNAL (INFERNAL ROBBERY SYSTEM)REVENUE SERVICE. THIS IS JUST A COLLECTION AGENCY FOR INTEREST PAYMENTS ON THE CASH THAT IS PRINTED WITHOUT ANY COLLATERAL WHATSOEVER AND LENT TO THE GOVERNMENT AT INTEREST.
THAT’S ALL THAT OUR SO CALLED VOLUNTARY INCOME TAX PAYMENTS ARE USED FOR. NOT FOR THE PROGRAMS THAT WE’RE TOLD THEY ARE USED FOR.
IT’S THE BIGGEST ROBBERY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD, AND STILL THEY WANT MORE.
NOW WITH THE NEW WORLD ORDER, THEY PLAN TO EXTERMINATE 80% OF THE WORLDS POPULATION AND SEIZE ALL THE ASSETS OF THE DEAD, AND, BUILDINGS, LIVESTOCK,AND MONEY FOR THEMSELVES.
THIS IS TH AVOWED GOAL OF THE CABAL, AS REPEATED MANY TIMES BY PEOPLE LIKE KISSINGER, ROCKEFELLER,AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL FOR FOREIGN RELATIONS, THE BILDERBURGERS, THE BOHEMIAN CLUB,AND THE BIGGEST CRIMINAL GANG OF ALL, THE UNITED NATIONS. THIS ORGANIZATION WAS FINANCED BY THE BANKERS.
THEY WILL BE THE ONLY ONE WITH AN ARMY, MADE UP UP OF TROOPS( MAKE THAT MERCENARIES) FROM EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WHO WILL BE USED HERE, WHILE AMERICAN SOLDIERS KEEP THE “PEACE” IN FOREIGN LANDS.THEY ARE ALREADY HERE. READY TO START ROUNDING UP”ENEMY COMBATANTS’ TO BE SHIPPED OFF TO THE DOZENS OF CONCENTRATION CAMPS THAT DOT THE LANDSCAPE OS AMERICA. REMEMBER THAT BUSH SAID TH WAR WILL LAST A HUNDRED YEARS.? HE MEANT IT. HE KNEW THAT WE WOULD FIGHT HIM FOR A HUNDRED YEARS, TILL EITHER US OR THEM WERE DEFEATED. THAT SPEECH EFFECTIVELY DECLARED WAR ON ALL AMERICANS WHO OPPOSED HIM.
OUR PROUD AMERICA, BEING TURNED INTO A LAND OF SLAVERY AND DEATH CAMPS, JUST LIKE WHAT HITLER DID IN EUROPE.
NAZISM DID NOT DIE OUT,PEOPLE. IT JUST WENT UNDERGROUND AND TOOK A NEW NAME, AND NOW IT’S RAISED IT’S UGLY HEAD WITH THE NEW NAME OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER. REMEMBER THAT GRANDPA PRESCOTT BUSH SUPPORTED AND FINANCED HITLER. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. THEY ARE STILL NATIONALIST SOCIALIST.
MANY POWERFUL PEOPLE IN GOVERNMENT, MILITARY,AND INDUSTRY ARE ALARMED AT THE AVOWED GOALS OF SLAVERY AND EXTERMINATION, AND ARE STARTING TO CAREFULLY BACK AWAY FROM THIS ADMINISTRATION. HAVE YOU NOTICED THE ABSENCE OF MOST OF HIS CRONIES? RATS DESERTING A SINKING SHIP? WHAT ARE THE OPPOSITION WAITING FOR? WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO SPEAK OUT? WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO ACTIVELY DO SOMETHING TO STOP THIS MADNESS?
I FEAR ANOTHER TERRRRIST (PURPOSELY MISSPELLED) ATTACK, ANOTHER PEARL HARBOR,ANOTHER CATALIZING EVENT TO CREATE MORE FEAR, AND THEN MARTIAL LAW WILL BE DECLARED,AND THE CONSTITUTION FURTHER TRAMPLED, AND KING GEORGE BUSH CROWNED AS CHIEF EXECUTIONER, EMPEROR,AND DECIDER OF OUR FATE. NO MORE ELECTIONS, TILL THE DECIDER WINS THE TRRRRIST WAR AGAINST US.
THEN REAL HUMANS WILL BE BURNED AT BOHEMIAN GROVE INSTEAD OF DUMMIES.
THE TRADE IN HUMANS WILL COMMENCE.
ALL YOUNG FEMALES WILL BE ROUNDED UP, ANY OBJECTORS BRUTALLY SILENCED, AND SENT OFF TO BUYERS FOR BROTHELS,AND TO HAREMS IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND ELSEWHERE. YES, IT’S ALREADY STARTED.
CHECK ON BACK ISSUES OF NEWSPAPERS TO SEE HOW MANY PRETTY YOUNG WOMEN HAVE DISAPPEARED, INCLUDING KIDS, MALE AND FEMALE.
IT’S BEEN HINTED THAT HALLIBURTON HAS A HAND IN THE FEMALE SEX SLAVE TRADE, POSSIBLY ONE OF THE REASON THAT THEY HAVE MOVED TO DUBAI.
THE WORLD IS HEADING INTO A CONDITION OF HORROR UNIMAGINED BY EVEN A MIND LIKE STEPHEN KING.
AND IN THE MIDST OF ALL THE SLIME, BLACKMAIL,BRIBES, THREATS AND MURDER, ONE LONE VOICE SPEAKS OUT, THE ONLY ONE BRAVE ENOUGH TO TELL THE TRUTH, AND HE IS IGNORED,CRITISISED, AND VILLIFIED BY THE PAID OFF PRESS MEDIA AND PEOPLE LIKE THE ABOVE BLOGGER.
I FEAR RON PAUL WILL NOT BE ELECTED.
FOR ONE SIMPLE FACT.
NO PRESIDENT HAS BEEN LEGALLY ELECTED IN AT LEAST THE LAST FIFTY YEARS.
THE POWERS THAT CONTROL THE WORLD PRESELECT THE CANDIDATE,
AND THE THEIR SPINELESS BRIBED LACKEYS FOLLOW ORDERS AND TRUMPET THE NAME OF THE PUPPET TILL THE WHOLE WORLD FEELS THAT THE MESSIAH HAS RETURNED.
AND ALL WE GET IS MORE OF THE SAME B.S SPOKEN BY CHARMING SERVANTS OF THE ILLULIMATI, WHO OBEY ORDERS OR DIE.
LIKE JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY.
HE ACTUALLY THOUGHT HE WAS PRESIDENT.
HE TRIED TO WREST THE MONEY MAKING JOB FROM THE PEOPLE WHO PUT HIM IN POWER, BY PRINTING F I V E BILLION DOLLARS OF UNITED STATES FUNDS, AND WITH THE FORE KNOWLEDGE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT, JFK WAS BRUTALLY SHOT BY THE DRIVER OF THE LIMO.
THE MONEY, ALREADY OUT IN CIRCULATION, WAS WITHDRAWN AND BURNT.
ONE OF THE FILMS OF THE ASSASSINATION WAS REDONE BY EXPERT JAPANESE FILM TECHNICIANS THAT CLEARLY SHOWS THE DRIVER SLOWING DOWN, AIMING OVER HIS SHOULDER, AND BLOWING THE HAPLESS PRESIDENT TO KINGDOM COME. THE VERY SAME PEOPLE SWORN TO DEFEND HIM WITH THEIR LIFE.
IF WE CAN REMEMBER OUR HISTORY, LINCOLN WAS ALSO ASSASSINATED FOR THE SAME SIN.
HE PRINTED HIS OWN MONEY TO FIGHT THE CIVIL WAR, INSTEAD OF BORROWING FROM INTERNATIONAL BANKERS.
HISTORY REPEATED ITSELF.
IT’S NO COINCIDENCE. PEOPLE WHO DON’T REMEMBER HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT. CHECK IT OUT. DO THE RESEARCH. FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF, INSTEAD OF WRITING ME A DIRTY REPLY.
STOP BEING DISTRACTED BY STUPID TV SHOWS AND DRINKING BEER TILL YOU FALL ASLEEP.
YOUR LIFE AND FREEDOMS OF YOUR CHILDREN, FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE AT STAKE.
THE DESTRUCTION OF THIS COUNTRY IS IMMINENT, DO SOMETHING NOW. IF YOU WAIT, IT WILL BE TOO LATE.
RAISE YOUR VOICE AND TALK TO THE PEOPLE WHO ONLY GET THEIR NEWS FROM THE IDIOT BOX.
PEOPLE WITHOUT COMPUTERS RARELY GET THE TRUTH,AS THEIR IS NONE ON TV. THANK GOD FOR THE INTERNET(S)
SUPPORT RON PAUL, THE ONLY GENUINE AMERICAN HERO.
THE ONLY ONE SPEAKING THE TRUTH.
KEEP THE REVOLUTION ALIVE.
SPREAD IT WITH AS MUCH ENTHUSIASM AS CAN.
WITHOUT HIM, WE’RE SUNK.
A CUBAN TOLD ME RECENTLY,” IF THINGS CONTINUE LIKE THIS, I’LL HAVE TO MAKE A RAFT AND GO BACK TO CUBA AS A REFUGEE.”
SAD, BUT TRUE.
