If I was an American I would definitely support Ron Paul.

My thoughts exactly.

When the UK abrogated its role as world policeman after WWII, the US took
over the job. If not the US, then who? China? Russia? Somalia?

In 1960, South Korea had the same per-capita income as Uganda. Today, it
ranks 4th. Most believe the 50,000 troops we have in the contry have
deterred the North from further escapades.

In Europe, there has been a war, historically, about every fifteen minutes.
With 120,000 US troops in place, minor irritations haven't escalated into
general war in almost seven decades (the longest Europe has been at peace
since before the invention of moveable type (in China) ).

And why should the U.S. BE the world's policeman?

"Because we're here, lad. There's no one else. Just us. Now face the front
and mark your target when he comes. There's a good lad."
