The real question that the Ron Paul candidacy poses for Democrats

[ProSense]

11. Bullshit

"You are right, on the vast majority of issues Ron Paul's libertarianism is just as bad as the right wing, but on civil liberties in general, (I guess the drug war does come under that actually) he is right. "

Given that Paul is a propagandist, how certain are you about his views on the war on drugs and how it will manifest?

Hyping this lunatic's positions as genuine only serve to whitewash the fact that he's a liar with evil intentions.

If he had the opportunity to repeal the civil rights act, would he allow blacks to smoke weed in the back of the bus?

It's clear that some people, not those who don't know better, value the right to smoke pot over civil rights.

If the likes of Paul were to create the kind of society he envisions, where would blacks, gays and the poor fit in?

Like everything else, cherry-picking Paul's mythical positions to envision a utopian society where drugs are legal requires ignoring the consequences of his other views.

How does his alleged anti-death penalty stance measure up against his charity or death position on health care?

Let's look at the numbers: There were less than 80 death penalty executions in the U.S. last year, the lowest in 40 years. Tens of thousand of people die each year without health care.

Which has a bigger impact on people's lives?

If Paul is such an anti-death penalty person, why has he made no mark or influence in his own state, Texas, the death penalty capital of the U.S.

In fact, why is he pandering to people who advocate a death penalty for gays?

He's a lunatic.
