Ron Paul's policies will get the US economy and the dollar growing in strength again. The biggest threat to American supremacy is the debt within. America will be nothing when its currency can't buy anything.
True, but how it's gonna get rid of the debt though? You need an equivalent of war for that, it's too late for anyhting else.
Under Paul, the military will still be, by far, the strongest in the world. It will, however be more focused within. Closing bases around the world, and reopening some within the USA. Focused on defending the borders.
Err, from whom? Mexico? LOL. Canada? Double LOL.
Paul's policies will not make America weaker, it will only make them stronger. His views on foreign policy will also far improve its soft power (economic, diplomatic), which many argue is far more effective than hard (military) power.
There're more than enough soft power, much "softer" than any economic or dimplomatic sanctions could do, say, a net of subsized NGOs all over the world, even PMCs could be regarded as a soft power (well, they're much softer than regular army yet military capable). Despite what everyone thinks the US uses brute force only then when they're absolutely sure in win-win situation. They've took a gamble in the past and got their guts handed back to them, doubt they'd risk to lose face by public bloodletting once again. Ron Paul won't bring anything new to the table here, since soft power is so to speak strong as ever.
