Again, what this country needs more than anything is someone who is Socially liberal in regards to the social rights of people. Also someone who is Fiscally (truly) conservative (Note our trillions and trillions of dollars of debt and massive inflation). Obviously, Ron Paul isn't perfect. He has some bad ideas too. However, more so than any other candidate out there he has the most 'right' ideas on top of his flat out making the most sense and are usually founded in fact, or strong evidence to support his case. Obviously depending on your age, you might not care much or depending on your political awareness. I just don't believe that the United States is headed for anywhere good if we keep going this direction. Watching the primaries for Republican candidates and seeing the things Obama has done, nothing in this country is changing for the better. Even the new candidates are talking about going to war with Iran and stopping them. Why? We historically were not a country that got involved in everyone elses affairs (Unless we were forced to) prior to I would say the 1950s. SInce then, we have been involved in the business of everyone else around the globe, and arguably we have entered the Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War, War against Terrorism. Only one of those being a war what we could call a traditional 'success'. We have continued to forge negative relationships with a vast majority of Europe, and just about everywhere else in the world outside of a few nations. There is a disdain for Americans, American lifestyle and attitude across the globe that really has been a recent development (Past 30 -40 years). This is all based on our foreign policy and this notion that we are the policemen. Nobody really 'likes' the police or feels comfortable with the police even when they're a good person, trying their best. |
you did not have to reply to me like i said i don't know this guy and i didn't say anything about his ideas i just think it's crazy (not only because of this guy it's the same in every country about some guys) that some act like some politician is the weapon to do everything better and if he would be president you would see that not everything works like he said it before. doing something on the paper or doing it in real is a different story.
and i read somewhere in this thread that everything is so overregulated in the states compared to other countries. i live in europe and believe me if you think there's much regulation in usa you have no clue about some european countries and i really don't see here that countries with less regulatioins work better than the ones with a lot of regulation for everything. which just means that it's not so easy where regulation is bad or good. sometimess it works much better with sometimes it destroyes a lot.
but i really say nothing against this guy i don't know him just heard about him few times the last week and maybe he would be the best president or whatever of all time.
ahh and you are totally right what you said about what many people on this planet feel about america. i agree that it would be much better for the usa to stop bullying around everywhere that destroys your reputation very fast. not so much in my country but in some other countries.
