Mr. Paul is also an isolationist and wishes to return the US to the 18th century.
something to be said to be able to fully support yourself... on your own.

Yes. It's a wonderful and admirable quality in a human being.something to be said to be able to fully support yourself... on your own.

But for a country, expecially one with the present day status and power that the USA enjoys, it's not such a good thing. Like it or not, we're part of a global environment. We need to come to grips with that, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves to us. We will be doing business in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, the Far East - everywhere! It's in our national interest to prepare for that, and that means security for our citizens that are there and our business interests that are there.
So, while many say that we have no business bieing the 'worlds policeman', they need to understand that we are not 'over there' to stop the local squabbling, we are there to protect our interests. WE DO BUSINESS THERE! And it's not going to change. It's been set in motion, and it's always going to be a part of our lives.
We just can't quit and go back to the 18th Century! If that were to happen the world would be in turmoil! Every free nation depends on the USA to lead the way. If we QUIT, who will lead?
I hate to say it, but you guys are not getting the point about Mr. Paul.
His ideas about being a constitutionalist are great. But he wants to isolate the US from the rest of the world. That just isn't possible for one, and for two, it's really counter productive to everything the US stands for.
The media ignores him because he doesn't have anything good to say. He just want's the US to mind it's own business and ignore the rest of the world. That ain't gonna happen guys!
He doesn't have any credibility because his ideas are so out of step with reality.
It's good he's still in the race, and he may have some input at the convention, but NO ONE is going to listen to him.
We are not going back to the 18th Century, PERIOD!
Sorry...
We have bigger fish to fry with the likes of what the dems will bring to the table. Whether it's Hitlery or Hussein, they cannot be allowed to take the White House... Under ANY conditions!

i'm in complete agreement with this. last time i checked, no one appointed the US as "world police". it works for canada and switzerland and other neutral countries.The media ignores him because he doesn't have anything good to say. He just want's the US to mind it's own business and ignore the rest of the world. That ain't gonna happen guys!
The "isolationist" argument makes me laugh. Why do we NEED troops in over 100 different countries? We can't take care of our OWN country. Why might we need to fight this "war" for another 100 years? You CANNOT and WILL NOT defeat an ideology.
Dr. Paul still wants to trade/visit with other countries. How does that make him an isolationist? IMO, the TRUE isolationists are the one placing sanctions and embargoes on others.
Dr. Paul in '08.
That is the point. We don't NEED troops in Germany or Japan.

Sorry for you guys that supported Mr. Paul here on the board, your buds from the other states didn't show up at the polls for him.
He still feels 'the revolution' is alive and is a long term battle. So maybe you can still feel good about your candidate after all.
His appeal for grass roots campaigning seems to still ring true with many.
I wish all you Paul supporters the best.
Now we need to concentrate on defeating the democrats!
Well flame on I would rather have Hitlery in the Whitehouse if it cant be Dr. Paul as I atleast know where she stands and we can get it over with quicker while I am still youong enough to help the cause
OK, Ill be glad to light the first match with a little education for you sir.
Go ahead and put Hillary in there. She'll replace the 2-3 retiring Supreme Court judges with super liberal anntigunners. They have a lifetime appointment. How young will you be in fifty years?
It is being said that, even if we win Heller, the court will have 20+ years of Roe Vs Wade type arguments to exactly settle the meaning of the 2nd Amendment or if it will continue to exist as we know it.
