Perry is now a fire breathing Libertarian, how convenient.

I think it's way too early of course to know but my bet is people will see him for what he is when he gets in front of the people debating the other candidates. I've watched videos of him and he reminds me so much of Bush that it turns my stomach.

One big show for the people.

He will say anything to avoid honest labor, and politics is as good for him as owning a plantation or an estate with serfs was for his ancestral cousins.

But how can anyone believe Perry based on his NWO governance of TX?

He is bilderberger.

If this thread is any example of the level of political discourse we can expect during this campaign season, it is going to feel like a LLLLOONNNGGG time before the elections are finally over.

Oh this has little to do with elections.  They all love me can't you tell?

Have you also searched for the videos and interviews of his reply to these allegations? If you don't take the time to find out the whole story then it's not really an open assessment. I've been through that with Hannah banana's.. so I'll say to you the same as I did with her. Take the time to get the whole story. I'm not going to provide the videos for anyone because very rarely does anyone change their mind. It's not my job nor is this thread about that so although this seems like an attempt to "discuss" the politics of Ron Paul... I'll pass.. Maybe on another thread. I'm not seeing any of the other videos or articles/interviews BTW so that tells me that you might not have researched it with the open mind like you claim to have done.

Um, yes, and I linked to it.

Um, yes, and I linked to it. I quoted and bolded the part I felt important. Look, he has no credibility with me if he publishes the Ron Paul Political Report and then disavows the content. He's lying or incompetent.

Here, let me quote a little more:

http://articles.cnn.com/2008-01-10/politics/paul.newsletters_1_newsletters-blacks-whites?_s=PM:POLITICS

Paul told CNN's "The Situation Room" Thursday that he didn't write any of the offensive articles and has "no idea" who did. Watch Paul's full interview with CNN

"When you bring this question up, you're really saying, 'You're a racist' or 'Are you a racist?' And the answer is, 'No, I'm not a racist,'" he said.

Paul said he had never even read the articles with the racist comments. See the newsletter excerpts for yourself

"I do repudiate everything that is written along those lines," he said, adding he wanted to "make sure everybody knew where I stood on this position because it's obviously wrong."

But that's not good enough, says one political veteran.

"These stories may be very old in Ron Paul's life, but they're very new to the American public and they deserve to be totally ventilated," said David Gergen, a CNN senior political analyst. "I must say I don't think there's an excuse in politics to have something go out under your name and say, 'Oh by the way, I didn't write that.'"

It seems that the most popular reason not to vote for Ron Paul is that he didn't proofread a newsletter. I've been watching him pretty closely since the '08 debates, and it seems to me that if he was a racist, he would want more interventionist wars against brown people, and he would want to escalate the war on drugs. In fact, he goes against both parties and ALL the other candidates on these issues. That's far more important to me than the newsletter.

Well damn it. They pulled Angry Jerk, my favorite thread ever. So, back to Ron Paul.
