It's a seemingly absurd idea on the surface: Why would democrats and
liberals want to vote for Ron Paul (a Republican) over President Obama?
Maybe because they want freedom instead of tyranny, it turns out.
Because if you're a total slave to the police state, it doesn't really
matter whether you're on the left or the right, does it?
Here, I
give you ten solid reasons why even liberals and progressives are
supporting Ron Paul. And by the way, I don't worship Ron Paul or any
individual. What I honor is the principles that Ron Paul stands
for -- the very same principles President Obama has outright abandoned
in his broken promises and disturbing reversals against the American
people. Out of all the candidates, only Ron Paul has the ethical and
moral strength to carry out his office from a place of principle rather
than betrayal.
#1) Ron Paul supports decriminalizing marijuana and ending the War on Drugs. Obama does not.
Remember when Obama promised
he would decriminalize marijuana, but now his own administration
continues to raid legal drug dispensaries in California? That's a
classic Obama lie: Say one thing to get elected, then turn around and do
the exact opposite.
Ron Paul, on the other hand, openly supports decriminalizing marijuana and ending the failed War on Drugs. Although he doesn't
promote
recreational drug use (and neither do I), he understands that treating
weed smokers as hard-core criminals is ethical, morally and economically
wrong. See my related article on Snoop Dogg and his recent drug bust in
Texas:

#2)
Ron Paul supports the freedom to choose what you eat and drink,
including raw milk, but the Obama administration continues to run armed
raids on raw milk farmers
Under Ron Paul, the FDA would be forced to
end its vicious armed raids on Amish farmers and raw dairy producers.
Obama has openly allowed such armed raids to continue under his watch,
refusing to even take a stand for food freedom in America.
Ron Paul understands that liberty is the most important component of abundance.
If you are not free to choose what you want to eat, smoke what you want
to smoke, and choose your own type of medicine and health care, then
you are a slave, not a citizen. Ron Paul seeks to get Big Government out of your life, away from your kitchen, out of your medicine cabinet and away from your children.
#3)
Ron Paul would seek to eliminate FDA censorship of the
scientifically-validated health claims for herbs, nutritional
supplements and natural remedies
Under Bush and Obama, the FDA's
continued censorship of truthful statements about medicinal herbs,
homeopathy and nutritional supplements has been fully supported by the
White House. Obama is just a corporate puppet, of course, and that means
he does whatever the powerful corporations tell him to do -- especially
the Wall Street and Big Pharma corporations. So it's no surprise he
hasn't taken a stand to support health freedom for foods and
supplements.
But Ron Paul has pushed the
Health Freedom Protection Act year after year (
http://www.naturalnews.com/019382_H...), tirelessly working to
legalize nutrition in America
and restore Free Speech for Chinese Medicine herbs, Western medicine
herbs and dietary supplements. Where Obama wants people to remain
ignorant and malnourished, Ron Paul wants to restore your right to know
the truth about supplements and natural medicine. As Ron Paul said in
late 2005:
"The Health Freedom Protection Act will force the
FDA to at last comply with the commands of Congress, the First
Amendment, and the American people by codifying the First Amendment
standards adopted by the federal courts. Specifically, the Health
Freedom Protection Act stops the FDA from censoring truthful claims
about the curative, mitigative, or preventative effects of dietary
supplements, and adopts the federal court's suggested use of disclaimers
as an alternative to censorship. The Health Freedom Protection Act also
stops the FDA from prohibiting the distribution of scientific articles
and publications regarding the role of nutrients in protecting against
disease."
#4) Ron Paul would shut down secret military
prisons like Gitmo, but Obama wants to expand those prisons and fill
them with Americans!
It is now common knowledge that Obama lied when
he said he would shut down Guantanamo Bay. As it turns out, Obama
actually signed the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) on New
Year's Eve (when no one would notice). The NDAA grants the U.S.
government the claimed "legal" right to "indefinitely detain" U.S.
citizens, throw them in secret military prisons, interrogate them and
even kill them with
no due process. All this can now take place without a person even being
charged with a crime, much less given their day in court. (
http://www.naturalnews.com/034537_N...)
Obama
quietly signed this bill on New Year's Eve, hoping no one would notice.
This is how low his morals have stooped, by the way -- to signing
traitorous bills in the dark of night, on the evening before a major
holiday where half the nation is hung over from alcohol. Why no signing
ceremony with full coverage by CNN, huh? Maybe it's because national traitors don't want their crimes against the United States Constitution to be filmed on camera.
In
signing this, Obama violated his own oath of office, nullified the U.S.
Bill of Rights, and essentially committed an act of mass civil rights
violations against the People of America. Rep. Ron Paul, on the other
hand, is one of the very few people who has openly and sternly opposed
this unlawful NDAA which blatantly and arrogantly violates the U.S.
Constitution and its Bill of Rights.
This single point alone
outweighs everything else you might think about Ron Paul. Even if you
disagree with Ron Paul on other issues, none of that really matters if
you're rotting away in a secret military prison for daring to protest in
a public park, for example. Without the Bill of Rights, nothing else really matters
because tyranny takes over. The Bill of Rights must be defended first
and at all costs. It is the only thing limiting the power of government
and protecting the People from tyranny. Without it, we are all little
more than slaves to a military dictatorship.
#5) Ron Paul is anti-war, Obama is pro-war.
Remember
when Bush was the President, and everybody on the left was screaming
about getting us out of all those wars in the Middle East? Funny how
they suddenly fell silent when Obama took over the reins from Bush and
continued running those same wars, isn't it?
Ron Paul is solidly
anti-war. Although he agrees with the need to "defend our shores," he
also believes that the United States has no moral authority (nor
financial stability) from which to engage in running around the world as
some sort of global police force, intervening in the business of
nations, especially in the Middle East.
He is solidly against a war with Iran even as all the other candidates seem to be almost desperate to throw other people's sons and daughters onto the front lines of violent conflict. Only Ron Paul truly honors the troops by bringing them home.
All the other war-mongers who say "support our troops" are really
screaming, "Let our troops get killed overseas!" And unlike Gingrich,
Ron Paul actually served his country as a military man, even with a
child to care for:
#6) Ron Paul's wants to end the Fed and stop bailing out wealthy banksters, while Obama is a Wall Street sellout
Don't
you find it astonishing that, under the Obama administration, wall
street crooks like Jon Corzine have been involved in the theft of billions of dollars from American farmers and investors, yet no one has been indicted, prosecuted or criminally charged for those crimes?
Under
the Obama administration, white-collar crime gets a wink and a nod.
That's because people like Vice President Joe Biden actually worship Jon
Corzine (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xm3V...).
Wall Street crooks were some of the largest contributors to the Obama
election campaign, and they continue to promote both Obama and Mitt
Romney.
Ron Paul, on the other hand, gets no support from the
criminal banksters. That's because he pledges to reign in the Fed, end
the disastrous trillion-dollar bailouts and halt the theft of money from
U.S. taxpayers by the wealthy elite.
Once again, this reason alone is enough of a reason to vote for Ron Paul. He's the only candidate who doesn't support the financial criminals on Wall Street.
Maybe that's why the crooked corporate media keeps smearing him in the
news... they're all tied in with the same crooks who run Wall Street.
#7)
Ron Paul does not need a teleprompter to tell you what he believes, and
his message has remained consistent for over 25 years
Obama needs a
teleprompter to figure out what to say. That's because he's mainly a
puppet who says what he's told to say and signs what he's told to sign
(like the NDAA, which he of course promised he wouldn't sign but did
anyway).
Ron Paul needs no teleprompter. He doesn't have to keep
track of which lies he told in which speech to which group. That's
because Ron Paul tells the truth every time, and his message is the same
whether he's in Iowa, New Hampshire or Texas.
Ron Paul isn't
sexy, trendy or hip. Instead, he's honest, reliable and ethical. Gee,
those might be good qualities for leaders to possess, ya think?
#8) Ron Paul is not really a Republican loyalist
This should come as quite a relief to the Democrats out there. Ron Paul is really a Libertarian
who is running on the Republican ticket thanks to the necessary
mechanisms of our two-party system. Most of today's Republicans are just
as corrupt as status quo democrats. They start wars, stage false flag
terror events and hand out trillions of dollars in bailouts and
government contracts to their corrupt buddies.
Ron Paul is none of that. He's a humble, highly intelligent and principled individual who often votes against his fellow Republicans on bills that run counter to the United States Constitution.
If
Ron Paul wins as a Republican, that would of course give Republicans
some additional power in Congress, but Ron Paul answers to no one other
than God and the People. As all the corrupt corporate lobbyists realized
long ago, Ron Paul thinks for himself and cannot be bought off,
no matter how high the offer. He sticks to principles, he honors the
Constitution, and he is dedicated to improving the future of our nation,
period!
#9) Ron Paul wants to legalize Free Speech (again)
Isn't
it interesting how many of the OWS protesters are now being forced to
pay daily fees for the "privilege" of protesting? Gee, I thought America
was a free country, and I thought you could peaceably assemble anytime
you wanted and shout your grievances to your government. Guess not:
http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=FF2F1...
Now
the police state pepper spraying has begun, all under Obama of course,
who now wants to send Americans into secret military prisons and deprive
them of their due process rights. If you believe in the First Amendment
and freedom of speech, you can't believe in Obama! He is the polar opposite of freedom (plus, he flat out lies a lot).
Ron Paul has fought for the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution for decades,
and he has a PERFECT voting record in defending it. He does not waver.
He does not bend. He fights for your freedoms in a way that no other
Democrat or Republican has ever done.
If you want Free Speech to be legal again in America, vote for Ron Paul.
#10) Ron Paul wants to criminally investigate the crooks in Washington
Most
Democrats and Republicans are all crooks who just cover each other's
backs. Yeah, you raped a little kid, but I stole a billion dollars from
the taxpayers, and we'll just agree to both remain silent. Sound
familiar? That's what happens in Washington D.C. almost daily.
Ron Paul thinks elected officials should follow the law.
Shock! What a concept! Along with that, he also believes that Attorney
General Eric Holder should not run guns into Mexico as part of a staged
scam to blame the Second Amendment. Gasp!
Who else dares to say the bureaucrats in Washington are crooks who should be criminally investigated for their crimes against the People? You won't find status quo officials pursuing any of this, of course, because they're all corrupt!
Only
Ron Paul stands out above the lawless corruption and
criminal-mindedness of the status quo in Washington D.C. He is the
"anti-insider," the one man who actually threatens the entire corrupt
system (which is why the press smears him every single day). This is why
the recent voting in Iowa was falsified and rigged to make sure Ron
Paul wouldn't win (this was openly admitted by the Republican leaders on
local radio). The crooks in Washington absolutely do not want Ron Paul
to become President, and that alone should be sufficient reason to put
Ron Paul into office!
You want real hope? Real change? Support Ron Paul
If
you love the way things are today -- unemployment on the rise, a
government drowning in debt, soldiers coming home in body bags, your
friends and neighbors rotting in prison after getting caught with a
little weed -- then vote for Obama! He's happy to carry on the insane
policies that have led us to this point in history.
But if you want real change in America, support Ron Paul. Make a donation today,
so that he can raise the necessary funds to clobber "Mittens" Romney
and win the Republican nomination. Then we'll have a faceoff between
Barack Obama and Ron Paul, and there's no question Paul would win that
contest if the voters still have a couple of brain cells functioning
when they go to vote.
