Ron Paul: A New Hope 2.0

He has never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership. He has never voted to raise congressional pay. He has never taken a government-paid junket. He has never voted to increase power of the executive branch. He voted against the Patriot Act. He voted against regulating the Internet. He voted against the Iraq war. He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year. Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress. Congressman Ron Paul is the leading advocate for freedom in our nation’s capital. As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Dr. Paul tirelessly works for limited constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, and a return to sound monetary policies. He is known among his congressional colleagues and his constituents for his consistent voting record. Dr. Paul never votes for legislation unless the proposed measure is expressly authorized by the Constitution.In the words of former Treasury Secretary William Simon, Dr. Paul is the “one exception to the Gang of 535” on Capitol Hill. Ron Paul was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Gettysburg College and the Duke University School of Medicine, before proudly serving as a flight surgeon in the U.S. Air Force during the 1960s. He and his wife Carol moved to Texas in 1968, where he began his medical practice in Brazoria County. As a specialist in obstetrics/gynecology, Dr. Paul has delivered more than 4,000 babies. He and Carol, who reside in Lake Jackson, Texas, are the proud parents of five children and have 17 grandchildren. While serving in Congress during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dr. Paul’s limited-government ideals were not popular in Washington. In 1976, he was one of only four Republican congressmen to endorse Ronald Reagan for president. During that time, Congressman Paul served on the House Banking committee, where he was a strong advocate for sound monetary policy and an outspoken critic of the Federal Reserve’s inflationary measures. He was an unwavering advocate of pro-life and pro-family values. Dr. Paul consistently voted to lower or abolish federal taxes, spending and regulation, and used his House seat to actively promote the return of government to its proper constitutional levels. In 1984, he voluntarily relinquished his House seat and returned to his medical practice. Dr. Paul returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th congressional district of Texas. He presently serves on the House Committee on Financial Services and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. He continues to advocate a dramatic reduction in the size of the federal government and a return to constitutional principles. Congressman Paul’s consistent voting record prompted one of his congressional colleagues to say, “Ron Paul personifies the Founding Fathers’ ideal of the citizen-statesman. He makes it clear that his principles will never be compromised, and they never are.” Another colleague observed, “There are few people in public life who, through thick and thin, rain or shine, stick to their principles. Ron Paul is one of those few.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bse1Xax07ec http://www.ronpaul2008.com |

I'd a voted for Fred T if he had stayed in it. Now I'm hoping Romney will pull ahead - the choices absolutely suck. I like some of Ron Paul's positions (go read them on wikipedia) but I just dont think he has a chance of winning. Eric |

Imagine what would happen if they didn't delude themselves like that. Vote for the one you think is most qualified to do the job, not the one that is being sold like soap to the television audience. Don't you people realize how important this election is? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_qgVn-Op7Q |

The election's not very important. Country's doing well, things are humming. With the exception of Supreme Court justices, not much of any consequence is on the horizon. |

Okay, you tell us what's crucial, necessary, urgent, or imperative that's looming. The economy? At a $12 trillion GDP, we can survive anything (witness WTC, Katrina, and war going on simultaneously). Health care? 260 million have insurance. Terrorists? We've killed several tens of thousands, there can't be many left. Immigration? Oh well, it's a push. |

You like some of his positions, yet won't vote for him because you "just don't think he has a chance of winning". I think this reasoning ensures the lesser-of-two-evils syndrome that's been perpetrated upon us far too long. Do any of the "viable" (read: mainstream Dem or GOP) candidates' stands on issues resonate within you? Anyone as much as Paul? Why are some afraid to vote for a candidate who probably won't win, even in just a primary? They think they're throwing away their vote to the greater of two evils? Send a message: Vote the way you think you should, not the way you're told. Be an independent person. In other words, don't be dependent upon anyone else's dependancies. I think. Tom |

Tom I think it's weird the way the public votes. I voted for Ron Paul and could care less about "chances of winning." I really wish voting would be easier than it was last Tuesday (a 40-minute wait with ONE working machine!) I vote for Internet Voting!!! |
