Ron Paul is amazing. I don't understand why the Christian right won't give him its full support.

He'd be a phenomenal President.

Couldn't agree more. Though I would WANT him to come up with a legally binding agreement with other major power to respect the sovereignty of other nations and work within a UN framework. Last thing the the worrld wants is the power vacumn left behind by the US to be filled by the Russians or Chinese or any other.


I agree with the first part of working with other major powers to respect the sovereignty.  However, they better vastly improve the so called UN framework consider the UN doesn't do shit.  The UN response to massacres, genocide, and food shortages is pretty pathetic.  If you have trouble trying to feed the starving people when you only need logistics, food, and people to hand it out then you have a major problem.  Sure some governments can be blamed for possibly preventing this to happen (Noth Korea, etc..) but most of the blame can be pointed at the UN.  Basically, the only thing the UN can threaten is sanctions which they hardly follow through on and doesn't really matter if they do.
