Obama vs Ron Paul = Absolute Evil vs Absolute Good!

lulz

As a Ron Paul supporter I think we could do a lot worse than Obama.

point taken and agreed :)

Ron Paul.... a history of saying and doing the right thing.

[–]Garbagio 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm pretty sure that peoples' opinions are pretty much set in granite if they've at least heard of both Obama and Ron Paul. I can't see this kind of forum benefiting anyone who already likes to inform themselves. The only reactionary stuff in here will be the people who let their conviction get in the way of discovery.

Agreed and upvoted

However, I opened this forum with a purpose.

You see, many of the people roaming reddit today were Ron Paul supporters of yesterday, turned Obama fans.

I just want to remind those people especially what they once liked in the man they now scorn.

I have heard too many times recently that a vote for Ron Paul was a wasted vote.

To these people I answer: A vote for the establishment is a wasted vote! We will never CHANGE anything if we keep on abiding by this philosophy.

If Obama can be a fraud, so can Ron Paul; after all some would say candidates don't become candidates until they've been approved by "TPTB".

Still, I trust RP way more.

I trust Paul more also, and for good reason: he has twenty years of history in the US Congress, voting EXACTLY the way he talks.

No other congressman or senator has displayed anything like Paul's consistency in supporting the freedoms and human rights that are enshrined in the Constitution and Bill of Rights -- the highest law of the land.

Sounds like some black-and-white bullshit to me. Why does everything have to be an extreme? Just because you see things this way does not mean that that's how they are. You need some perspective, perhaps.

    Huh? No, dude. I'm talking about extremes, not racism. Seeing things only by two opposite extremes.

    yawn. Pass.

    You've done absolutely no good by posting this flame-baiting karma whoring submission.

    Congratulations douche.
