here are just a few that he has no chance of hell of passing:

Eliminating the income, capital gains, and death taxes to ensure you keep more of your hard-earned money and are able to pass on your legacy to your family without government interference. (He might be able to get rid of the death tax and capital gains, but income taxes are going nowhere).

Refusing to further raise the debt ceiling so politicians can no longer spend recklessly. (we are dealing with this right now and everyone is giving in. If he refused to sign it, chances are they could get the votes to overturn his veto).

Eliminate the ineffective EPA. Polluters should answer directly to property owners in court for the damages they create ? not to Washington. (Sure because Bob and Bay average person has the means and resources to take Fortune 500 companies to court).

Revitalize the military for the 21st century by eliminating waste in a trillion-dollar military budget. (Those who get military contracts will not just go quietly in the night be pushed aside).

Immediately saving lives by effectively repealing Roe v. Wade and preventing activist judges from interfering with state decisions on life by removing abortion from federal court jurisdiction through legislation modeled after his ?We the People Act.? (Never gonna happen unless somehow we managed to get a full court that was nothing but hardcore conservatives).

These are all things he wants to do and he lists among his campaign points, but none of these have a chance in hell of every happening if he were elected. Obama sold hope, Paul sells a pipe dream. They are two sides of the same coin.
btw, you must of missed my 2 ron paul threads!
