Ron Paul Calls Elizabeth Warren a “Socialist,” Says Government Goes Too Far

We’re only trying to HELP YOU!

Ron Paul 2012

@ Drano Wrong the role of our government is to defend our liberty as outlined in the U.S. Constitution.

Ron Paul is the only one telling us the truth. It’s said that “God helps those who help themselves.” God gave us Ron Paul. Let us not squander this opportunity to save our Republic.

DRANO-Government’s role is not to protect the status quo. If you want the status quo, vote for Romney or Obama. If you don’t like the status quo, vote Ron Paul. Only the banking elites and the 1-percenters like Elizabeth Warren don’t want his views heard about honest money and lawful government.

“fool”, “jackass”, “economic slavery”, “protect the status quo”. Another hit and run template response. Maybe you should listen to what Ron Paul is saying. I heard him say that those that benefitted from the bubbles and the bailouts should be taxed and punished and that the middle class pays the price for government debt and bailouts through the inflation tax. I heard him say that we should differentiate between the rich who create jobs, goods and services and those who benefit from government bailouts and bubbles. Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush and Obama are the status quo. Ron Paul is their biggest nightmare. We elected Obama to “advance the idea of social and economic progress”. How’s that working out?

“Such a radical redefinition of America’s role in the world is at odds with the most conservative members of his party.”

And this is where either party went wrong. We have a Constitution that BOTH parties seem to think they have the right to trample on. I hope he does run 3rd party-neither one deserves his honesty and integrity. I will write him in if he doesn’t take the nomination, as will ost if not all of his supporters. GOP better think about this.

nlanigan said, “I hope he does run 3rd party-neither one deserves his honesty and integrity.”

He tried that once. Failed miserably. Second time, he ran as a Republican. Again, failed miserably. THIS time, he’s a Republican slash Tea Party darling. Odds are very good he will fare EXACTLY the same as he has fared in the past…………

HIT JOB!!!!! Ron Paul is NOT arguing against highways, education, and military. He is educating Americans and letting you know there is more than one way to skin a cat. Anyone who looks at their paycheck and honestly believes that the Federal Government is doing a good job with the $$ they take, and is willing to give more, is truly living in a fantasy world!

I’m willing to bet on that. Are you? I think you should leave MSM alone and do your research :)

John, unfortunately following the Constitution would be a “radical redefinition” of modern day politics and law. We have been conditioned over many decades, little by little until where at the point where the Constitution is just a peace of paper. Most modern day politicians are simply a byproduct of the political system.

Ron Paul is nuts.

Jason M. Volack seems to have a special interest in Senator Paul as he puts out one warm piece of trash out after the next trying to discredit him. About one a week over the last month.

Every person that is completely negative about Ron Paul I’ve found knows NOTHING about him. Their facts are incorrect and they can’t cite where they get their crazy notions from. Why can’t people just do their research on a candidate before making an opinion?

Ron Paul is the only candidate who will end this mass stupidity. No more wars, spying, torture, inflation, or debt. If you are in favor of any of those, then please, leave this country and don’t return. The Republicrats have done enough damage to this nation, and WE are taking it away from them.

RON PAUL IN 2012 (OR NOTHING)

RP 2012!!!

Ron Paul has 3 main Points that we need represented now in this country.
1- Make IRS history
2- Make FED history
3- Any of his “strange” or “wierd” points he will not have time for because he will be too busy trying to accomplish the first 2 very important points.

Is this article about the same interview I watched?

“He said that if he were president, U.S. allies would be on their own.” That isn’t what he said.

“Paul defended extending the Bush tax cuts in a time of austerity by insisting that if you’re rich and productive, you shouldn’t be punished.” That isn’t what he said either.

Jason, please stick to reporting. I don’t need you to put words into your interviewer’s mouth.

“The man who reads nothing at all, is better educated, than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.”
—Thomas Jefferson

“Paul’s plans have been criticized by fellow GOP rival Rick Santorum as being “irrational” and a voter in Concord, New Hampshire, told Paul at a campaign stop that he’s “off his rocker.”

A “voter” said so. You can find a “voter” to say something negative about ANY candidate, so why is this crap relevant? Is what this anonymous “voter” says pivotal in the campaign for president?

Sorry, but you can’t sneak-in yellow journalism and expect to get away with it. We sheep know how to read.

“Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it was realized that our liberties and wealth were in jeopardy.” – Ron Paul

Ron Paul is undoubtedly the Thomas Jefferson of our times. He has a deep understand of economic policies, the Fed and foreign policy. His track record is impeccable, and his honesty can be matched by none. I found all this out not from the main stream media, but by reading about Dr. Paul. Do yourself a favour and look up this guy.

No one has a campaign like Ron Paul. He is a candidate of THE PEOPLE. He raises money on the internet via small donations ($50-$100) from individuals. No corporate funds, no wall street funds, no lobbyists. NOT a single candidate has this much support of the masses and no outside influence. He will deliver real change that people are craving, but the media is trying very hard not to let the truth get out about Dr. Paul. You want more Obama Change, pick Cain, or any of the other candidates. Occupy Wall street, you want real change?? Ron Paul is your man.

I wonder why all these so called “journalists” always see fit to include some random persons opinion of Paul in their articles. And its always the ones calling him “whacko” or something stupid like that. Why don’t you try posting opinions about his foreign policy from actual veterans instead of some no name voter from New Hampshire.

reading these comments gives me hope for america, maybe even the whole world: no matter how damning your hit piece attempts to be…all you do is draw more attention to this man and his greatness

These articles are getting old, the establishment is scared to death of Dr Paul. Some of these comments are pathetic do you really love sucking money from the government? The government has control of everything except the air you breathe and they will take that too if you allow them. In a free market WE the people control the economy not the government, look at what happened when they tried to house people Fail banks got bailed out and the middle class got screwed, look at USPS, FAIL they’re going down, UPS, Fed Ex, private companies continue to lead the way, why? Because WE the people keep them in business. Ron Paul 2012 grow up the Dr. Is not scary he has the cure

I Love HIm :) great interview keep them coming from Dr Paul.. ron paul 2012

The following is what I would like to hear Ron Paul say at the next debate.

“I have been called a “grumpy old man, by one of my opponents,” and if I appear that way it is because I am very disgruntled when I look at the future of the United States of America, the country I love and have served for many years first as a member of the military and then for 23 years in Congress.

“I know I do not fit the Hollywood picture of a leading man auditioning for the role of President of the United States. But my generation has experience. We have lived through many dangers including the greatest war this world has ever known. And I am running for President because I see the country I love plunging headlong into a crisis even greater than the crisis we faced in World War II. We won that war because of our faith in God and the beliefs espoused by our forefathers of liberty, freedom and individual responsibility that built the United States into the most prosperous country in the world.

“My fellow Americans, you are not alone if you feel something missing in today’s America. We are losing our individual liberty and freedom because we as a country are turning our backs on individual responsibility. Too many have listened to the siren song of “collective responsibility.” We are told that as individuals we do not need to take care of ourselves and our fellow citizens any longer, the government will do it. We are told that we do not have to insist that the government live within its means, that that is a problem for future generations.

“The consequences are grim. The United States of America is facing the gravest crisis in its existence. We are bankrupt and living on borrowed money. Some have called me a prophet because I have correctly predicted past consequences of our actions. Be that as it may, I am predicting now that when our debts are finally called, the collapse of the dollar will make the Great Depression of the 1930′s seem like a minor bump in the road. And we will take the economies of the industrialized countries of the world with us. If that happens, the beacon of liberty the United States of America represents to the rest of the world will be lost.

“But there is hope. We can still reverse the dangerous course this country is on. But we must take action now and that action cannot be minor. We must reduce the size of our federal government and bring it back within the framework of our Constitution so that it again assumes its proper position as the servant of the people, not their master. I have offered a sound proposal for such a reduction in government in my Plan to Restore America that will cut federal spending one trillion dollars the first year and balance the budget within three years while still protecting Social Security.

“Others will try to tell you that all we need to do to solve our problems is tinker with the existing form of government. They say they are for smaller government but “Where’s the beef?” Where are their proposals that cut the size of government and restore the value of the dollar?

“We can no longer ignore the danger we are facing. We must act and we must act now. If you love your country, if you want your children and your grandchildren to live in prosperity and peace, I beg that you demand of the candidate you select to run in the next presidential election that he or she confront the very real crisis this country is facing. It is my hope that I can be that candidate.”

How is his foreign policy radical? Mind your own business and only engage in fights that are necessary for the US well being, win the fight and come home. Besides that, deal with countries in a respectful manner and engage in mutually beneficial trade.
This is the foreign policy of George Washington, and we would be wise to return to it.
ABC News; really? Where do you get these amateur writers?

True Issue of the Day
“Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have. The course of history shows us that as a government grows, liberty decreases.”
—Thomas Jefferson
“I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks [Un-Federal Reserve] to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around, will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”
—Thomas Jefferson, letter to the Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin, 1802
“I predict future happiness for Americans [100%], if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”
—Thomas Jefferson
“Government spending is a “tax” burden on the American people and is never equally or fairly distributed. The poor and low-middle income workers always suffer the most from the deceitful tax of inflation and borrowing.”
—Congressman Ron Paul
Audit the Fed/End the Fed
OVERTURN THE TABLES IN THE DEN OF THIEVES

It should be obvious to anyone who pays attention that when the government spends money, there are lobbyists there to make sure somebody gets their share. Who are those somebodies? Rich folks. They might say they’re buying thing FOR poor folk, but who are they buying it FROM? Rich folks. That’s the corollary to Paul’s philosophy of leaving rich folk alone. Leave them alone – don’t take from them, don’t give to them. Instead, lets let the middle class keep what they earn so they can BECOME rich.
The newly rich and the old rich, they would ENJOY giving if it weren’t forced from them at gunpoint. Who likes that? I know I don’t, and I don’t even have much money.

I love Dr. Paul. Always sticks to his guns.

RON PAUL 2012!!!!!!
REVOLUTION

Paul says “I preach home schooling and private schooling”

So….if both parents have to work and can’t home school, and can’t afford private school…then what?

This alone has made me disregard this man as woefully out of touch.

I’m disappointed, as always, with how much rhetoric and “politics” are involved in politics. I watched the interviews for each candidate, and it seems to me like some of the candidates were not getting equal, unbiased interviews. Ron Paul’s seemed to be one of the worst.

The most prominent example would be how all the front running candidates were asked to discuss how they planned on clenching a victory, while Paul was only asked if he was going to go third party. This seems like Terry Moran was pretty much saying Ron Paul had no chance whatsoever to win the republican vote, while polls place him in a close third. There are plenty more examples, but this one was the most aggravating to me because it was just so… sneaky….

I see a lot of people here misrepresenting what Ms. Warren has said. She didn’t say that companies pay no taxes and that they didn’t help pay for roads. She is saying that companies and individuals paid the taxes that built the roads but our present tax system is tilted strongly towards rich people and corporations to they DON’T pay their fair share.

If you are nuts enough to believe that things would be better if all our roads were privately produced (we gonna have tolls every 30 feet?) then you might believe that Ms. Warren said that the rich and powerful should pay for everything.

If banks can get laws twisted to give them welfare (to the tune of trillions of dollars – trillions!) then someone has to speak out for those who don’t have a voice. I have only read about her in the news and heard her speak on TV but what she has said seems rational to me

Calling her a Marxist is equivalent to calling Romney a fascist. Actually the fascist label is much more appropriate for most of the Repub candidates. Blind patriotism, strengthening the rich and powerful rather than representing the individual, etc.

If we are sick and tired of the same garbage that comes in and goes out 0NO MATTER THE PARTY- then, we have the simple solution, vote for a change and stop complaining, but for God’s sake, do something that will benefit society not only you,
VOTE RONPAUL2012!!

Ron Paul is for choice! If you don’t like sending your kids to public school, you should be able to send your kid to private school or home school them. Some states are outlawing home schooling. He is against the government telling you how to educate your child! As a parent, you are a child’s first teacher! You teach them how to act, talk, walk, potty, and explore. As they age, the PARENT is responsible for teaching the child RESPECT, ACCOUNTABILITY, and MANNERS! I agree with Ron Paul. NO ONE should tell me where I MUST send my child to school.

Every time Ron Paul talks the knee jerk going into a dance. I am telling you that people really do not understand what he is saying, and I do not blame them- he presents such a different platform that people cannot even imagine what real change could be like.

Hopefully though more and more will debate then inevitably get infuriated enough to do some actual research and watch a few interviews, and speeches he has done for themselves.

Ron Paul may be president if the blue democrats fall in behind him.
Any democrat who feels betrayed by their national party for the candidate
that they were saddled with ought to look to Ron Paul, unless of course they
want to compound their 2008 error.

“In a free society, the only way to enjoy large profits is to produce goods and services that people want.”

You are missing a key element of classical economics; namely, one of the two things that inhibit proper market function. That element is market power. Specifically, if a firm or group of firms possesses undue market power, the market cannot function properly. That is one of the few instances in which it is proper for the government to intervene (the other is in dealing with externalities).
