Why is this a conspiracy Keanu? Because that's not a wacky conspiracy theory that is actually what is going on.
[–]PopeOnIce[S] 5 points6 points7 points 4 months ago
because in a senior level politics class, social policies were brought up, and in the discussion I was alluding to this and got called a crazy person by those people. so i thought i'd meme it and share the flavour

They've stated as much. Ron Paul, for example.
[–]oozles 5 points6 points7 points 4 months ago
True story. I wish half of the idiots who support him looked at his ideas.
[–]PopeOnIce[S] 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago
sad thing is that some of the ron paul supporters that are at university take pride in calling themselves "Paul Bots" really taking pride in blindly following -_-
[–]oozles 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago
I don't understand the wave of supporters in universities. Just because someone is consistent doesn't make their ideas good.
[–]PopeOnIce[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
his points are consistent so people trust that he wouldn't turn on them. think of all the wish wash political ads that play this up...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbdzMLk9wHQ for example. and since his points sound easy enough to understand they then don't do deeper investigation into what is just under the surface. personally can't stand him and the majority of his supporters i interact with

I am currently an RP supporter, but I also admit that I don't know him entirely, and wish to know more in order to better make a decision about him.
If anyone could reply with links to information that would help me better come to a conclusion about this man, that would be awesome.
(Sorry to derail, I just think I'd have a better shot at getting more views contradicting popular opinion in this thread with you fellows.)
for starters this may have some leads as to what you might want to look into http://www.addictinginfo.org/2012/01/04/10-reasons-not-to-vote-for-paul/ personaly his stances on church state relations is a big sticking point for me, but as conservatism in this country has been hijacked by religious concepts instead of just classical liberalism. leading to legislation of morality. His claim of libertarian is a bit bs from what ive gathered, as he is too obsessed with pushing his crap than what a "true libertarian" would be in the classical sense (no true Scotsman blablabla) But a HUGE pissoff to me is his desire to cut off federal emergency response funds for natural disasters. being from MO and having the Joplin tornadoes in recent memory, his reasoning is BS. his claim that the federal funds encourage people to build in risky places to reap fed funds when their house gets destroyed.
I find that most people support him for 1)legalizing pot 2)wanting to ban the fed (which i just finished a legal history paper about) 3) getting out of the current conflicts (we havent declared war since WWII due to the war powers act) those things are well and all, but for those 3 things, i'm not willing to deal with the rest of his insanity. plus how much could he live up to v a congress of his foes. he would have to rely heavily on executive orders and his stance on the constitution would prevent that because that would be overstepping the constitutional powers the founders set so his strict constructionist roots would make himself be almost useless
Aw hell.
I guess I'm voting Saxon!
[–]HectorAnonymous 3 points4 points5 points 4 months ago
Probably true.
[–]OutZoner 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
I think you need to bring this point up again, with a vengeance.
But I'm socially inept.
[–]PopeOnIce[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
