A Candidate Close-up
Thursday, August 16th, 2007
I was reading the SF Gate this morning where I came across an article, claiming that most Californian Republicans favor Giuliani as their choice for President. Then Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson came in second, with around 14% each, followed by John McCain with 9%.
Of course, I was disappointed to hear this, because I think there is a better candidate running.
If Californians haven’t heard of Ron Paul yet, I would suggest that you check him out.
His website is http://www.ronpaul2008.com/.
He is a strict Constitutionalists, leans Libertarian on social issues, and wants to curb the current trend of mega-government and massive waste, by restoring the federal government to a healthy Constitutional level.
If your like me, your probably worried about future generations who will be burdened by the gluttonous spending of our out of control politicians of today.
As of right now, America has a debt of 9 trillion dollars and growing by the second. We borrow money from other countries, while we have this debt and continue to run deficits.
You know if something isn’t done soon about our reckless spending, we could see a collapse in this country that makes the Great Depression look like a stroll on the wharf.
Ron Paul received a warm welcome at Google headquarters in Mountain View back in July. He has often been first place in many internet polls and continues to gain ground everywhere he speaks. His message is simple,… Peace, Prosperity, and Freedom.
He doesn’t want to legislate what you do in your home, your bedroom, or on your property. He doesn’t want to pretend to run the economy, in fact he wants you to be more responsible for yourselves. Paul often tells you what he will not do, instead of promising what he will do. He has a clear understanding that mega government is the problem, rather than the solution to most things.
He wants to do away with the unfair tax code we have now, and also wants to eliminate the IRS. Paul also wants to restore strength to the dollar, by backing it with something tangible like Gold, rather than nothing or thin air.
The media often labels him the anti-war candidate. He voted against the Iraq invasion, but did vote to go after Bin Laden in Afghanistan.
Paul placed 5th in the famous Iowa straw poll this last weekend, where Giuliani didn’t even receive 5% of the vote, nor cared to even show up.
Unlike Giuliani, Paul would secure the borders, eliminating welfare incentives for illegals who would risk life and limb, to come to America for the freebies, and the easy life.
I’m sure Californians can appreciate a candidate who would actually provide solutions for illegal immigration.
Giuliani has a law firm, that would benefit in a major way from the little known sellout of American sovereignty known as the North American Union, where a super highway would be constructed from Mexico to Canada, a new currency called the Amero would be created, leaving North America to resemble something like the European Union.
So for Rudy, clear and secure borders, as well as America’s sovereignty, is not much of a incentive for his future intentions.
I encourage Californians and people in the Bay area, who considered themselves libertarian or conservative, to check out Ron Paul for President in 2008.
