From a Jan 3rd article in PESN, talking about US Senate candidate Randy Hekman: (Who promotes LENR but not ECAT itself)

What he does not need to do is assist the effort by some to "Ron Paul" the E-Cat technology, by criticizing it without studying it in depth. Just like the terrified liberals and fake conservatives attacking Republican candidate Ron Paul, there are critics with agendas trying to bash the E-Cat.

-Taken from an interesting article for both political and LENR-related reasons.

Frankly, I think Ron Pauling should mean: "to have the Main Stream Media Shun you in every way possible because you're right," but this is close enough.
 


after a bit of looking, it seems you are correct

I still don't quite get this quite Ron Paul craze so many of you have. For one, I'm sorry, but there's not a chance in hell any of the Republican contenders are going to beat Obama in 2012 general election. Who do you have? Romney, Paul, Santorum? None of those guys stand a chance against Obama in the general election. For example, Romney vs. Obama is a presidential debate. Gee, I wonder who'll come out of that one looking better. Same goes for Paul, honestly. The Obama administration is going to mop the floor with any one of these contenders.

And even if Paul did manage to get into the White House, what do you really expect him to do? I mean, it took Obama two years to hire some guy we don't know to head-up some bureau that we don't even know exists. It took him two years to do that! So what exactly is Ron Paul going to change? If you think he's going to end the Federal Reserve or something, you're absolutely insane. Nothing short of the White House and Capitol Hill turning to ashes will end the Federal Reserve.

Doing "money bombs" on the internet with your Twitter friends isn't going to change fuck all. Might seem exciting, but ain't going to change a single thing.
 

So what you're saying is that after the election, the millions that he has woken up will fall right back to sleep? I'm a slave, you think that's easy to forget?

I agree, Ron Paul is a lousy candidate. He


  • isn't a sharp dresser
  • doesn't pander
  • tends to ramble when speaking about important issues
  • talks of austerity
  • isn't easily swayed
  • has terrible hair
  • never promises handouts
  • doesn't pray publicly for attention
  • hits hard politically but above the belt
  • is way above retirement age
  • doesn't get big funds from billionairs
Sadly, he didn't choose to do this .. he was chosen and answered for his children and country.


If you can find another politician who has remained honorable & uncorrupted throughout 2+ decades of DC and has no serious mud on his name bring him to my attention. I'm happy to promote his candidacy too.


Ron could win zero states and this movement would only gain momentum. Of course, his presence in THE national debate one on one with the most socialistic president history certainly won't hurt the cause. These big government RINOs are just a warmup
 
@Matt: What you're not getting is the Cause itself. All of the other candidates, including Obama, share the following cause: Maintain Status Quo. (While grabbing as much power as possible.)

Paul's cause is to return america to the vision the founding fathers had. This is POWERFUL because people with 3 or more brain cells to rub together eventually learn that today's america is a sick, cynical, twisted reflection of the america spelled out on its' founding documents.

In fact, with the NDAA's passage, we've now surpassed China for lack of freedom... And don't get me started on the attainability of 'the american dream,' because our education system is pretty much ranked last on the planet and our upward mobility index now lags behind the rest of the civilized world too!

If Franklin & Jefferson were alive today, I guaranfuckingtee you they'd start up a new revolution to overthrow this sad government.

That's the cause, and if RP died today it wouldn't lose importance, only a tiny bit of momentum.
 
So what you're saying is that after the election, the millions that he has woken up will fall right back to sleep?

Yep, pretty much. Remember a few simple years ago, during the last general election, when there was this huge awakening of tens of millions of Americans who were tired of the norm, and wanted something different? The grassroots organization and sheer number of people involved was almost unprecedented. Loads of energy, enthusiasm, and optimism flowing through all towns and cities across the US.

Where are those people now? Oh right, back to being busy with their wives, kids, jobs, etc.

Never said that, and honestly, I think Ron Paul would make a great President. At least he'd follow the wishes of the founders of the US, which would definitely be a welcome change.

Just speaking about the reality. RP has a VERY small chance of winning the Republican primary, and even if he does, he still doesn't stand a chance against Obama in the general election. And even if he does win the primary, and beat Obama in the general election, he's still not going to be able to realistically change much.
 
And even if Paul did manage to get into the White House, what do you really expect him to do?
I had to throw in my :2twocents: on this one as well...

Did you know that every war we've fought since 1941 was NOT declared by congress? The CIA missions to destabilize other countries too; all presidential actions.

So at the very least, I expect Dr. Paul will go in there and Declare all foreign Ops DONE IMMEDIATELY. Ron himself has said he will and that this action will save our budget over 1 trillion dollars every year.

You'd be surprised how many other examples there are like this... Even the appointments he makes (which will not be politically motivated!!!) can make a huge difference indeed.

That's just splitting hairs, and you know it. Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and so on... may not have been official declaration of wars, but all officially authorized by Congress.

So at the very least, I expect Dr. Paul will go in there and Declare all foreign Ops DONE IMMEDIATELY.

Come on, come back to reality for a bit. The maggots will have had a feast on his decaying body months before he was ever in a position to even attempt a decision like that. We both know that. Do you really think RP can get elected, then just call up a meeting with the Pentagon, FBI directory, CIA director, etc... and just politely inform them that all foreign operations are to be ceased? Come on...

This whole Ron Paul thing is as stupid as me a few years ago, thinking Obama was an amazing guy, and would help change this world for the better. Thinking one guy is going to change the direction of the US establishment is ludicrous thinking at best, if not dictionary definition insane.

Jeering for RP is the same as jeering for Obama a few years ago. It's stupid, a distraction, and we all know deep down, isn't going to fundamentally change the direction of anything. It's a distraction from the real problems. And enough of a distraction so we all pat ourselves on the ass, while thinking we're great freedom loving people, without actually doing anything, while the establishment continues to take further control.

ROFL if I were drinking something, it would be all over my monitors right now.

You're actually admitting that you thought Obama was an amazing guy? And you're also comparing him to Ron Paul?

Sorry, but last election many of us RP fans were rooting for RP, and we knew the Obama presidency would be a joke.

The difference between the campaigning Obama and the campaigning RP is there's actually real substance behind the change RP declares, and not just some catchy focus-group slogan.

Where are those people now?.

Funny, if you removed "tens of" like I did you'd be referring specifically to Ron Paul ... and in that time he's exponentially grown his movement.

In actuality, you were talking about the Obama awakening. I'd say that's more like a drip feed of morphine.

your move

All you had to do was look at Obama's record to know that he was completely full of shit. Forget everything else you know about the guy, and look at his senate voting record. He was horrendous. People that liked him were blowhard democrats with wishful thinking or people that didn't bother to vett his claims.

I've never once thought Obama was an amazing guy and that he will do anything to change the world. I knew he was a fake as soon as I heard him speak, and at that time when i was posting Alex Jones video 'Obama Deception', I was called a retard and a 'conspiracy theorist'. There is a big difference between Ron and Obama, and its that Ron really wants to change America for the better. Ron has always been consistent and detailed on what he wants to instigate unlike Obama who uses ambiguous slogans such as 'change you can believe in' to fit peoples ideals. So no, this whole Ron Paul thing is not stupid.
