McCain, Paul Differ on Iraq

John McCain needs to retire,the thought that are troops want to be in Iraq for many years to come is beyond belief. Ron Paul is the candidate who will end this insane Neocon Rambo mentality running our country at the present. Neocons want wars forever,it’s a big turnon for these sick people. Ron Paul is Americas best choice.McCain appeals to all the demensia voters.

Because of people like McCain, we are in a mess in Iraq. Countries and people preaching for war and violence will ultimately succumb to it. I thought people become peaceful and wise with age; not with McCain.
Ron

McCain’s a fool. It was US pro-Limey interventionist policy in WW1 that led to Hitlers rise. Had Imperial Germany been allowed to kick-Brit-butt in 1917, there would have been no “1933″.
So much for the value of interventionist foreign policy.

At 72, Mr.Paul is too old to become president. I don’t like his foreign policy views and think he needs to fade away like the days of old. We don’t live in 1776 but in 2007 where the threat of terrorism to catastrophic proportions is real. Imagine where that Nuke material that was discovered in Slovakia was going to? That could’ve ended up detonated in New York city for all we know. Strong foreign policy is vital for self preservation. McCain is right about this.

McCain appeals to all the frightened Neocon Republicans who think the boggey man is going to get them. They act tough,but are such scared little girls.

I’m disappointed in McCain. What a cheap shot. It’s almost as bad as Bush’s “If you’re not with me, you’re against me”. Furthermore, it wasn’t U.S. isolationists who “caused” Hitler. Germany allowed Hitler. Appeasers allowed Hitler to make war and spread. Ron Paul took the high ground with his response. The only thing he didn’t do is remind us that we are only in Iraq for oil.

I’m a Ron Paul supporter, and I applaud what he said (when they finally let him speak).
But what has surprised me most is that Mitt Romney comes across as an incredibly slippery ell. How is this guy leading in Iowa and New Hampshire?

I voted for Ron Paul in 1988 when he ran for President on the Libertarian Party ticket. As a former Navy Commander, I believe Paul’s remarks about the conflict in Iraq are much more accurate than McCain’s thoughts. For two old men, only Paul is living in the 21st Century. I’m sure Barry Goldwater, if he were still alive, would agree with Paul and give his fellow Arizonian McCain a swift kick in the ass.

Hiller and Cheney/Bush were after the same thing: oil from the Mideast and Caucasus regions.

I’m sorry Mr. McCain but there is NO COMPARISON. Ron Paul has a very clear understanding of how the Muslim world sees us and our foreign empire. The more we meddle, the more blowback we can expect. Al-Sadr will probably be the prime minister of Iraq in a few years. Or its supreme leader!

McCain is all for war!! He is most like Hitler if anyone is to compare to Hitler and hasn’t it been McCain stepping off all the planes with Bush during re-election time!
And for ABC to QUOTE “If we lived in a world like Ron Paul describes..” What if! What IF! We can live in a FREE world we can restore the constitution we can be free we can be proud we can trade we can have so much once we get ppl like McCain out of our government and once we change our Foreign policy when we start to wake up and say Hey America’s Dollar is falling the ppl don’t have jobs WAKE UP AMERICA RON PAUL will save our Constitution which is OUR FREEDOM!

Prior to WWII a group of people who opposed any involvement in the war established the America First Committee. They used exactly the same arguments and reasons that are being used by the ‘get out of Iraq’ gang. Hitler could habe been stopped but we failed to. We thought that it could be avoided by diplomacy—the Munich Agreement—which only ensured further death and bloodshed. You are just recreating the 1930s.

Isolationism is different from nonintervention.Just makes sense.I don’t completely agree with Dr.Paul about our base being the*only* reason we are not liked,but our continued bullting isn’t working.Is the surge really working?Mcain lost me then.And as a millitary man I would have expected him to know that our stance back in the late 30′s ,early 40′s did not cause Hitler’s rise.

I think McCain is just upset that Paul is outpacing him in contributions by 2-1.

McCain. LMAO. If he wants to pick up his crumbling campaign he should immediately apologize for accidentally taking a sleep aid before the debate.

It was the Zionist who backed Hitler’s party and contributed moneterily to it to win their election.You can read this on Google or Wiki. Not that it was the fault of USA that led to WWII. Our borders are here but our troops are overseas protecting other countries border.Bring them home . tThey are our kins. We do not want draft but McCain and likes want to continue overseas hunting expedition. Why can not McCain catch Osama who is in a cave?? He just want to whitewash truth from us,the taxpaying US common man.

When I read some of these comments I wished we still had the draft. Some people would benefit from serving their country in the military and learn a few facts of life. There are bad people out there who aim to destroy us as a nation. Let them have an unfettered base to organize and plan and they will eventually get us. Stick you head in the sand and pretend that we can just simply tiptoe through the tulips of life and you will find out what other countries before us have found out when they fell to a conqueror.

Once the bar fight starts it’s too late to decide to go to church instead. The reasons we went to Iraq are irrelevant now, our troops are there. Now that troops are in harms way we have no choice but to finish the job. OBL has said that he will continue to attack the US until we give up Democracy, adopt the Islam religion and accept an Islamic government. That’s not acceptable. We need to get 199 % behind our troops and let them do the job they are trained to do. Once that conflict is over we need to pull out and let them run their own affairs. We also need to close bases in Japan, Germany and Korea. Those nations can easily afford their own defense. Our soldiers are needed here, not in some foreign land that can take care of themselves. … In short, McCain and Paul are both wrong.

Hello JC, Saddam was not worth the live of a single US army personnel- we lost over 3 thousands our troops to get rid of Saddam who was once helped by US to fight Iran. I support Dr. Paul . He is the most HONEST broker in this debate. Army personnel are contributing to his campaign more than McCain.We love our army.

Ron Paul is a loon. The media only keep him around for chuckles .. has he ever been higher than 3% ?

Godwin’s Law?

McCain is a WARMONGER. That little stint in the Hanoi Hilton damaged his noodle.

McCain made himself look really deranged during his little twist with Ron Paul. Paul took the the high road, but Ron Paul did point out to
McCain that he was wrong about our
active duty, and brought up the fact that he has received more donations from active duty military over any other candidate. I use to admire McCain, I am ex-military by the way. McCain sounds more like Hitler, and he also needs to go back and read up on his history. He has turned into a warmongering self absorbed idiot, I mean that. McCain is no different than Bush. As one of the commentators noted after the debate, he said they all have the same ideas as G.Bush with the exception of one, and that candidate is obviously Ron Paul. Ron Paul is the only one willing to stand up to the unconstitutional acts being committed in our White House and government. If you were to ask any of them “Do you agree with what G. Bush is doing in the White House? All but one would more than likely say yes. They are afraid to stand up to this moron (G.Bush), except for one, he stands alone, he stands for the Constitution and the people of the United States, and that is why Ron Paul has my vote and support.
Bring our troops home now, protect our
borders and our country first. We need
to save our dying country.

Sounds like Ron Paul is speaking exactly what Al Qaeda wants him to say. We’re supposed to shut down our base in Saudi Arabia because Al Qaeda has a problem?? I wonder what else we have to do to appease Al Qaeda. I do think we should let Europe deal with Iran – and Darfur for that matter….the US tried to get rid of Saddam and his stupid rape chambers.

America! Wake up!
Ron Paul is for the people and America itself. All other candidates, Dem and Rep, have corporate and global agendas

Hats off to ABC. It is a fair server.
One of the above commentator needs to know that Citi Bank is being “rescued” by Abu Dhabi money that Mr.Rubin won yesterday!. Less Americans will lose jobs and save Citi of bankruptcy.
Dr. Paul said it all correct and honest points. US Constitution is Americas Bible, Koran,Bhagwat Gita etc. We Americans all stand behind it and respect it and like Dr.Paul fight those who corrupt our Constitution.

McCain is totally disingenuous to use some fraudulent WWII analogy that makes no sense at all. What does bringing troops home from Iraq have to do with Hitler. McCain must see the writing on the wall.

I was all for Huckabee but now that he voiced his opinion about the death penalty i just cannot aggree with him there…..THOU SHALL NOT KILL….WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT!!!!…..i also beleive that Ron Paul is the most honest candidate and i beleive i will be looking into him a lot more…i like Ron Paul!!!

I can’t believe that McCain was dumb enough to use the term ISOLATIONIST. Ron destroyed McCain on that one. These other candidates really don’t prepare well at all. Here is a hint for the other candidates: Leave Ron alone and you won’t look like an idiot. I love it when the other candidates get upset and try to make Ron look bad. They really don’t understand who they are dealing with. Ron has studied and debated these topics for decades. Ron actually has REAL information and the Constitution to back him up.

To post(David Kyriacou)WHAT DOES AGE GOT TO DO WITH ANYTHING?,”WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU”!!,HERE WE FINALLY GOT A CADDIATE THAT WANTS TO RESTORE OUR CONSTITUTION,WHICH PERSERVE OUR LIBERTY’S….AND ALL YOU COULD SAY IS “WE DONT LIVE IN 1776″,(THE IRAQ WAR WAS A SCAM, WAKE UP!!!),BUSH LIED ABOUT THE WOMD,”AND NOW HE WANT’S TO GO AFTER IRAN NEXT, OVER ANOTHER LIE….”TO GIVE UP LIBERTY FOR SOME SECURITY, YOU DESERVE NETHER BOTH”!!

David Kyriacou says: “…threat of terrorism to catastrophic proportions is real”
David don’t be scared, it just the boogie men who are trying to manipulate you into giving up your liberty for a little “security”. So far these sensationalist scare tactics have been largely successful in stripping away your rights and plunging the nation toward bankruptcy, but listen carefully to what Ron Paul has to say and toughen up to these brainwashing techniques that would have you hiding under the bed calling for mommy.
Ron Paul is right in that we have faced far bigger real threats in the past compared to these terrorists that are largely an invention of our foreign policies. Turn off the TV and the MSM that are partisan with the military industrial complex then seek the truth and you’ll find that your fears have been misplaced and that the real threat lies with enemies that have so far tricked you into supporting their agenda.
Ron Paul is the only one who is aware of the real danger CFR/NAU inspired goals that threaten the nation state of America and the liberty of its citizens. Time is of essence and Ron Paul represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to correct the plunge toward fascism. Act now to get Ron Paul elected.

Ok, imagine this scenario. We are total enemies with Mexico. They have annexed a part of Texas back by force. The rest of the US is PISSED. China starts flowing Mexico weapons, even nuclear bombs. Then they park their battleships in the gulf of mexico pointed at us. Then they occupy South Dakota and put a military base around Mt.Rushmore. What would you do as an American? You would do everything in your power to fight the chinese right? Well, that is EXACTLY what’s going on with the Islamist Jihadists. The 9/11 commission report confirms it as well as documented history. Because of the US foreign policy over the course of several decades we have been attacked. They attacked the symbols of our corporate greed and our military might. If we do NOT leave them alone, it is going to bankrupt us. We cannot nor should not subjugate the middle east no matter what currency is competing against the US dollar as the world reserve currency. We need to peg our dollar to some hard commodity like Steve Forbes said and let the world come to us because we have sound money. Please, for the sake of my children, quit listening to the MainStreamMedia propaganda and do some research for yourself. Don’t be fed what you should believe because you do so at the detriment of not just you or even me and my family, but the global community at large. There is a resource war brewing because all of our economies rely on oil to keep the civilians going to work making things and to stores buying things and the construction equipment steadily building infrastructure. There has to be infinite growth but we live in a world of finite commodities. Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate that can bring about sensibility to the rest of the nations on this planet and have us all work TOGETHER towards solving the energy crisis. A renewable resource that we can all share instead of having a nuclear war over. Sorry, but i’d much rather give peace a chance than bankrupt my nation fighting an unwinnable battle against a phantom foe. The terrorists live in CAVES. They have no army. Why are we spending trillions of dollars there. Don’t you think they KNEW that the US already had planned to invade Iraq after Saddam swapped to the Euro for petroleum sales. They KNEW the US was going to go bankrupt from this war and we totally fell into the trap. It’s time to snap out of it and make peace with them. They don’t attack us because we are free, they attack us because we are over there occupying their land, lobbing tons worth of depleted uranium shells into their lands, and putting on sanctions that have killed MILLIONS of people. We should be ASHAMED of ourselves and our foreign policy. We should be ASHAMED of how far we let the crooked politicians take us. We went from the shining light of the world to the most despised nation on the planet. Ron Paul is the last great hope for our planet so either be a part of the Revolution or prepare to get steamrolled by the rest of us.

“AND LET US NOT FOGET,THE BUSH FAMILY ARE FRIENDS WITH THE BIN LADENS”,(WE SOLD THEM WEPONS, “THATS A FACT” )

To Casey above: RIGHT ON BROTHER! Amen all the way. Your “imagine this” scenario needs to be imagined by every Ron Paul critic–because #1, it could happen, but #2 it will actually make people THINK and understand that Ron Paul is right.

Lord! Do you think that mainstream media may figure out that running more articles about Ron Paul will increase their readership by 200%!

Tariq,
First of all, never ever ever ever ever get your historical knowledge from wikipedia. That’s one of the first things people will learn in school nowadays because it isn’t peer reviewed.
Second, based on your previous posts, I think that you’re having a little bit of difficulty understanding the English language. I don’t say that to be nasty, but even using the wikipedia entry, there’s no way that you can possibly come to the conclusion that the Rothschild family gave money to the Nazi Party. Now, the entry definitely says that the Nazi Party robbed the family of its wealth. Because of the harassment that the family faced, the Austrian government gave the Rothschild family bank over to the Nazi Party. In no way did the family willingly give money to the Nazi Party. The wiki entry that you rely on very clearly states that it was all stolen.

After watching the debate late night is has become crystal clear to me that the Republicans have no chance to win the general election, unless RON PAUL becomes the nominee. Americans and especially those that serve in our military are tired of this war. McCain’s comment about troop sentiment saying “Let us win” is ridiculous! Win what! We already won (even GWB said so..lol). We overtook Iraq in record fashion and our troops have proven themsleves the most formidable army on the planet. Saddam is DEAD! The surge has worked and slowly order is being restored to Iraq. It is now the time for the Iraqi people to take back control of their own destiny. The Iraqi people don’t want us to occupy their country indefinitely and use it as a launching base for an attack against Iran. Beyond that, how do these war-mongering fools suggest we pay for a lingering troop presence in the Middle East. Our national debt is sky-rocketing and our economy is in serious trouble. The FED dropping interest rates is like a band-aid on a severed artery. RON PAUL is an economist, historian and patriot. The Republican party has lost its way and now ridicule Ron Paul for being the only one smart enough to check his compass of American sentiment. RON PAUL will either win the nomination or ruin any chances of the Republicans getting in the White House. And BTW, Mike Huckabee, Ron Paul wanted to get rid of the IRS before you ever came up with the idea! And to think… John McCain once called RON PAUL . “the most honest man in Washington”.

What a silly notion that we are fighting “them” (pray, how large is their army?) over there, to protect us over here.
The truth is that the people who pull the strings that tie George Bush’s hands gambled on us being successful in overthrowing Saddam and installing a puppet pro-American government. This in turn would have allowed US corporations access to Iraqi oil fields. “Our” oil supplies would have been secured. In addition, it held the promise of creating great wealth especially for those corporations who own our politicians and the political process. To gain the support of the Christian Right (those who are supposed to be pro-life, but might have a pang of conscience being pro-war at the same time), they were told it was necessary for the defense of Israel to take out Saddam.
Long before 9/11, the Bush Administration’s agenda included regime change in Iraq. Paul O’Neill is our inside source of reference. After 9/11 it became much easier to persuade the public that, given some half-truths, propaganda, fear-mongering and a UN resolution, the US should invade Iraq. Only Ron Paul stood up in Congress and warned the country that this action was foolhardy, unconstitutional and immoral.
Now more than four years later, government auditors are warning that the war will cost us $2.3 trillion. Add this to the $9 trillion national debt and we are a country in serious debt. We currently pay $500 billion per annum to service the $9 trillion debt. We are building an embassy in Iraq the size of the Vatican and 14 military bases. The cost will run close to a trillion dollars. We have 700 military bases in 130 countries. Our foreign empire costs us another trillion dollars a year to maintain. Ron Paul will bring our troops home, slash our foreign spending and start repaying our national debt ($30,000 per man, woman and child, not including $8,000 per capita to fund the war). Currently we are borrowing hundreds of billions of dollars a year to finance government expenditures. This borrowing places a huge interest cost on us. Future generations will have to deal with the repayment of capital. There is nothing moral about this picture.

i kept my television on cnn after the debate and they had a panel with different analysts and they also said only ONE candidate was unbushlike(true). then a few minutes later, one of them said huckabee made some good points but sounded silly in stating he would do away with the IRS. said huckabee is staring to sound like ron paul with all this “North American Union” garbage that is all in his head. flat -out lie! NAU is real. i live a few miles from the land that was proposed for this super highway. the people of this state (texas) fought against it and won. alot of ranchers and farmers would have lost their land had the highway been passed. the gov. already signed a pact with mexico and canada in 2005 here at baylor university, look it up. they are just trying to implement it slowly so that by the time people realize what is going on it will be too late. if you do not believe or understand anything you hear on this thread or any other, on the debate, or what any candidate says DO NOT ASSUME you know! it does not matter! if you believe something is wrong, disprove it. with more than one source ofcourse. no matter who says it. some people out there will find out and be shocked, some will just keep eating the tasty pie served to them by the Main Stream Media(MSM) and others will just ignore it all, right or wrong. ahh, ignorance is bliss!!!

Someone needs to buy McCain a copy of BACK DOOR TO WAR or PERPETUAL WAR FOR PERPETUAL PEACE. They are both available on Amazon. Both books document the exact opposite of McCain was saying. The insiders in the U.S. Gov worked hard for many years to create the WWII and to involve the U.S. in that war.
Ron Paul’s non-interventist stand was what got Wilson and FDR elected/reelected. But both took us into war. Both were listening to “key” advisors who came to office with an agenda for war.

Those here that think killing more civilians in Iraq will make us safe are out of your minds. Just thinking about it makes me believe that some people are just insane. Will you keep beating the war drum when the dollar finally collapses? When you lose your job because of national insolvency and have to sell pencils on a sidewalk.
Look at the international exchange rate for the dollar geniuses. Another year or two of your WAR and the job will be done. The dollar will collapse. The North American Union and the Amero will be ushered in and you a will be destitute. Read “Wart is a Racket” Your being played for fools. WAKE UP!

Whoever sais that our intervention is for the purposes of self-preservation and that ron paul is too old is out of their mind. “That nuclear bomb they found in Slavakia could have ended up in New York city”–(some other commenter); Do you know why that might be a possibility you foolish person? BECAUSE OF OUR INTERVENTION IN OTHER COUNTRIES THAT SPREADS HATRID AGAINST US. We dont have to be killing innocent civilians to protect ourself-its quite the opposite. And ron paul isnt too old to be president, he is the oldest and by far the wisest and most intelligent person in the race

How McCain is a veterain and has no knowledge of WWII is very surprising. US “isolationism” is not what cause WWII or the rise of the Third Reich. You cannot compare the two wars on any level. In WWII we were at war w/ Germany, we are not at war w/ Iraq. The only way to get the insurgancey to halt is to leave the Middle East. They do not want us there, they do not want Britain there, or Austraila. One of the reasons we were attached was because we had military bases in the region. And last time I checked, Osama Bin Laden was from SYRIA!

I am an independent who leans Democratic. I like this guy Ron Paul. He really sound like the only true conservative among the candidates. I’d vote for him.

I watched the debate I watched it twice. Romney and Giuliani are without a doubt the scariest candidates for President that I have ever seen besides that never really done anything even send a bill to Congress in all my time as a senator Hillary. Romney will promise and say anything to get my vote. Giuliani wants to scare me into voting for him. I am afraid Fred Thompson if elected President will set a record for most naps taken in the oval office. John McCain is at least one if not two elections late in terms of any original ideas. Tom Tancredo is by his own admission a bookend. Duncan Hunter had some of the most genuine honest answers of the evening. Mike Huckabee seems an honorable man but has to be able to project more than faith and trust. This leaves me with Ron Paul. Who I support. The oath given to every President at the time that they take office is to defend and uphold the CONSTITUTION of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. This is the law of the land until the globalists create a North American Union. God help us all. I think Ron Paul set the very debate of this election. Are we as a people going to accept the direction that both major parties have been directing us towards WORLD GOVERNMENT? Or do we value our laws our justice our CONSTITUITON our right to be a sovereign nation. This election will cement the direction of American for the 21st Century. Look at the people who want you to believe that they will provide us the best protection and direction. Look at their long track record. How have they voted and behaved over their life time? Look at what they promise versus what they can really deliver. Be involved this is our country, our lives, our right to work and prosper and thrive in an increasingly competitive market. I trust Ron Paul.

just so you guys know, i’ve been censored by abc on some topics. not this blog obviously, but on the main site i have. i have don’t insult people, don’t hate, and i am definitely not obscene. i did however post a few quotes from powerful people that implicate the main stream media in this whole cover-up. if you thoroughly research the things some of these people on here say you’ll also understand. google this….fdrs. ALOT of credible documents and links to justify what i say. yes, i’m sorry, it may take some effort. by the way, if you do this i can guarantee you will think differently about republican/democrat candidates. you will see the battle the few guys in office are fighting. i have never contributed to any candidate, never even given myself a title or chosen a party before……not till now that is.

look; if you care about the elections or like pretending to……do research! if you just like logging on and being contradictive i’m sure there are alot more people on the DWTS blogs that still debating the winner.

McCain’s posturing at “Presidential” was sad. Would we be in a War in Iraq if the Rove/Bush machime hadn’t smeared McCain in the Carolina’s and pushed him out of the way to carry on the gross “traditions” of the “Bush Crime Family?” I don’t think so, but it its too late for McCain, and the rest of the bunch of really frankly “bad” GOP candidates.

I have been to Iraq and have spoken to many Iraqis who all said the same thing, “thank you for getting rid of Saddam, but let us have our country back and fix our own problems.” By occupying Iraq we are breeding more hatred toward us. We need to change strategies. If one truly believes that “we are fighting in Iraq so we don’t have to fight here”, then you must also believe that we should invade Iran, Syria, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia just to name a few. After all, those and many other countries are known to train and harbor terrorists as well, which is ironically the same reason we are in Iraq. HMMMMM?? I know, let’s just take over the entire middle east……. by the way, Saddam was removed from power a long time ago, which I thought was our objective. So why are we still there again??

After last nights debate I was really disappointed with Anderson Cooper (CNN not allowing Ron Paul to speak. Why have a debate and only ask three candidates the questions. Do they think that us voters are that dumb. Mc Cain looked and acted like a mummy and or someone just out of the Morgue. Wake up America! Ron Paul is a gift from God! Amen!

Has John McCain ever heard of the Treaty of Versailles? It was American intervention in Europe and imposing sanctions on Germany that ultimately led to the financial demise of the Papiermark. The Germans decided to pay their war debts by printing too much money. Doesn’t sound like anything going on now does it?

In the past year, I have come to the conclusion that I have been wrong. I was wrong for voting for George W. Bush. I was wrong for supporting our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan. I apologize for voting without being as informed as possible. I have changed my politics, and I know I can no longer support any candidate that would take us to war under false pretenses. John McCain (and just about every other candidate) is wrong on this, and Ron Paul told it the way it really is. And for McCain to mischaracterize Paul as an isolationist… well, I’ll just say it was a cheap shot. Ron Paul is a noninterventionist. There’s a difference. A big one. Bring our troops home, Mr. Paul!

I was disappointed in John McCain. Being in the Senate as long as he has been, he broke all rules of decorum and discourse decency by insinuating the entire military is on his side (maybe he wants to be Commander-in Chief more than civilian president – scary). Was he meeting with those (unidentified) he handpicked that agree with him? His connotation of Paul’s non-intervention policy to one that gave rise to Hitler was absolutely ridiculous. I lost any remaining respect for McCain’s integrity after that comment. I’m conservative, independent and believe in a strong national defense. Our country is running a weak national offensive nation-building policy.

McCain got the boos he deserved on that pathetic attack.

McCain’s remarks are more evidence, if more evidence were needed, that his so-called campaign is suffering the final pains of death. Tancredo is irrelevant. Paul’s answers are the only ones that have continued to make sense. I’m going to vote for him whether he gets the nomination or not. I’m fed up with the lesser-of-two-evils choices that I’ve been seeing for the past 50 years.

I agree with McCain on the torture question but Ron Paul is the best candidate. He also just might be able to win several of the first few primaries.

All of you Ron Paul supporters do express good opinions and in that regard congratulations.
To build on what other McCain supporters have stated in previous comments, McCain has been at odds with the Republican Party many times. The fact that he proposed the bill to alienate illegal immigrants has nothing to do with his campaign dying. In fact, look at his constant surge. Ron Paul while i do respect his views is nothing like McCain. McCain would know about the Vietnam war given that he was a POW.
You want to see someone with experience in the White House right? Someone to Win the war and at the same time withdraw troops? McCain is your guy. Once he wins the War, the troops will be out of there.
Let me give you a little straight talk:
The Fact is that McCain has proven time and time again to be the one to beat Hillary Clinton in the General Election.
The Fact is that McCain stands up for what he believes to be right. (Ron Paul and McCain do have some similarities believe it or not)
McCain has gotten endorsements from Democrats what more need I say? He is the best candidate for 2008.

McCain’s ignorance of history is truly
appalling. World War II was the result
of the Treaty Of Versailles that set
the stage for Hitler’s rise to power.
World War I was started by European
stupidity, and we let ourselves get
dragged into it. If it had not happened
Hitler would have been at best a
mediocre artist forgotten by history.

In 2005, as a citizen of Arizona, I wrote to McCain in regard to the ‘Homeless and the Healthcare’ provided here. I received no response from him, as I did from others. Then I sit to watch the football game, and see McCain walking onto the field with Bush. It appears to me that McCain has been perusing and finally made it all the way up.
For a person to have survived being a POW, you would think they would have learned something, but it appears that McCain has gone to the Wrong End of the Spectrum. Too Sad!
I for one, do not wish for his return to Arizona. Ron Paul has always had my vote from the beginning and I do believe that fighting for the “Constitution” to remain as it was intended is the Only way to bring this ‘Country’ back as our forefathers intended. It is odd that the other candidates do not see this any longer.
We have every right to be fearful of the Future and what it may bring.
TK3, I do hope you are heard, and that this will prove in the end that Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate to vote for.

Maybe Mccain just needs to retire and let someone else step up to the plate. His only strongpoint is the war in Iraq and how he was such a war hero and all the experience he has with foreign policy. sure, that’s important, but everyone is so caught up in his PAST that they’re oblivious to the fact that this ‘future’ president may have a vengence and if elected will abuse his power as commander of chief of armed forces to fufill his blood-thirsty revenge2
