Ron Paul? Not For Me
I will not vote for Ron Paul, EVER
I realize that this stance may result in the reelection of a President that I believe is hell-bent on destroying the principles that this country was founded on. The policies of Barak Obama have done nothing but hurt the economy while driving more people to government dependence. When the government is the primary provider for the citizenry, you have a socialist country. This intentional restructuring of our free country should have been obvious to the electorate before the last presidential election. In a remarkably transparent moment, Obama revealed his intent to Joseph “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher in response to a question while on a photo op in Holland, Ohio. Obama told Wurzelbacher that he intended to tax the prosperous to “…share [read: redistribute] the wealth” of the job producers in our country. The conservatives of this country then chose not to heed this omen and stayed home on election day as a protest against the Republican candidate. Now we have had three years of 17% REAL unemployment, near zero job growth, and the weakest dollar since the depression.
If this country continues on its current course, we will not survive as currently constituted. A vote for Ron Paul will ensure that this destruction happens. However, I will not vote for someone whose stated positions are to legalize harmful recreational drugs, sacrifice the security of the Republic with strict isolationism, gut the military which provides that security, and through pacifism empower enemies determined to destroy our country. As liberal as Barak Obama is, and he is the most liberal president since Johnson, Ron Paul is more liberal. That’s right. The above stated positions of the Paul campaign are to the LEFT of Barry Obama. His myopic plan will speed the destruction of our country and ensure no serious conservative could win the presidential election for the next 20 years.
Paul has bet everything on the Iowa caucuses. He is “all in.” His plan is to succeed in Iowa and then parlay that into additional fundraising allowing him to continue in the campaign as succeeding primaries occur. Yes, there are those in the establishment of the GOP that are nervous. I believe that the establishment of the GOP needs to go because they are more concerned about the power of their position and caving to the liberal cabal than the good of the country. However, the continued Paul campaign would drain resources that are going to be critical to the final battle against Barak Obama’s nearly 1 billion dollar war chest. The only way to ensure the defeat of Obama in November of 2012 is to choose a candidate that draws a stark contrast to the President’s liberal/socialist agenda. A contrast that does not camouflage a liberal perspective behind libertarianism. Ron Paul is not the candidate to beat Barak Obama.
