I just cannot fathom it. Ron Paul seems to me to be what you would call "founding father material".
Why are people so damn stupid? The same thing happened in Sweden last time we had an election, people voted forward the worst possible option and now everybody is compaining about this and that. It's not even funny. The only difference is we did not have a good candidate to vote for, only different shades of shit.
If you have not investigated Ron Paul yet, please please, I beg you to do so.
This guy is real, you can tell. All other candidates I have listened to appear shallow as my bird pond in the back yard. |
Assuming that one even takes him to be a serious candidate...could it be that people know that if he were to be elected he could not accomplish even 1% of the radical changes that he proposes. A President has very limted domestic powers (basically he only has the pulpit at his disposal to persuad and RP has already proven that he is not very persuasive) and cannot make law or change law. Only Congress can make make law or change law and only the Supreme Court can decide if the laws that Congress makes are legal or not.
