Anyone care to explain how the "crazy guy" from the last election, knew 10 years ago exactly what would happen to us?


There are people who know how to fix our problems. We better start listening to them.

That and he wants people to be accountable for their own actions. And there's no way he could ever be President, he's un-electable.

Unfortunately even if the Repubs had nominated Paul the general election result(s) would have been the same.

He is and was. A lifetime of espousing "radical" ideas (gold standard, FairTax among other) to be heard would have rightfully been shredded in the mainstream press if he was ever a serious challenger.

Now Rand Paul doesn't seem to have fallen in that trap. Hopefully Repubs don't fall in love with the idea of running Ted Cruz in hopes he can deliver the latino vote.

Ron Paul has not been right about anything. He has been saying that the dollar was imminently going to be worthless for his entire life and he has been wrong. No, not, worth less but worthless as in as good as toilet paper. Hasn't happened and nevertheless his followers are as devoted as the followers of Oral Roberts and Harold Camping.

The housing bubble didn't happen until it happened. Is this really your logic? Aren't you an economic scholar? Google Zimbabwe and Argentina and see how control over their own currency being the panacea for their economic problems worked out for them. : thumbup:
