here's one for aaron - why blacks should vote for ron paul

ron paul, FTL

it's really to bad for you that I'm a moderate huh? Kinda breaks down your logic. But then again reality has long been a thorn in Ron Paul's side...

I don't understand why "Blacks" would vote for anybody. Not meaning that they shouldn't vote, but seriously who lacks so much individualism that they vote according to what level of melatonin they have in thier skin? It's asinine to the point of neanderthal-ism.

What a "neanderthal-ish" thing to say, to begin with. You don't understand "why "blacks" would vote for anybody"???? And you're the moderator of this forum? why? Why would you be the moderator of "any" forum saying something so "asinine"? Black people vote according to their conscience, much like anyone else, which, hopefully, is for someone who harbors their 'best interests'....for the most part, historically, that has been Democrats, who, in the past, saw fit to include black issues in the party platform...not like today, where that impetus has been seen or designated "divisive" or "patronizing".
Better than Republicans, who have, for all practical purposes, written off the black vote, as they don't even see fit to address black forums or conventions, yet they wonder why blacks don't vote Republican in increasing numbers...go figure.



I'm voting for who I vote for, I don't care what white people do, what straight people do, what Irish Americans do. Having pride in any of that is crazy. You can't be proud of something you were born with, it's a misconception. Pride is something you have about something you've accieved.

And the word would be "achieved"

Pride? What has pride got to do with voting one's conscience...it's more about 'common sense", than anything else. Who will I vote for that thinks that I am important, and the who thinks the things that I think are important, "are important".....wouldn't be the Republicans...and their "no child left behind BS"...so many more blacks kids got "left behind", behind that bull crap of a policy, it's not even funny....school vouchers! Neither the plan nor the concept can be verbalized coherently so that any mother, black, white or green could understand and take advantage of...that's because the plan favors private "white" enclave schools, and guarantees that they remain"white" and protected, while receiving federal funds, although they are supposed to be non-profit organizations....highway robbery and miscarriages of justice. And who would be the chief stomper: none other than The Decider in Chief, himself
the whole "I'm proud I'm white/black/gay/arab/a woman" is a joke on any level. Wow, you have a skin tone and a sexual preference? who would have thought?
Uh, what has this got to do with anything? I'm thinking put the coffee down and take a valium.

Are you crazy? Everybody has had it with the Republicans...We're so over Cornyn and Kay Bailey Hutchinson...it's liable to be a Democratic sweep come Nov 08...mark my words...Republicans are political poison.

When Ron Paul wins not only the nomination but the general election, I will eat my dog's poo....what will you do if he doesn't?

Be honest. When did you start dwelling on this concept of electability? I've never heard so many people talk about "electability" as they have this campaign season.

where have you been? Perot, Nader, Buchanan all faced this

Be honest. When did you start dwelling on this concept of electability? I've never heard so many people talk about "electability" as they have this campaign season. I know that the odds are against Ron Paul getting the nomination (6 to 1 in Vegas, up from 80 to 1 six months ago), but I'm doing what I can to improve his chances.
