Anti-Romney Republicans

The thing about Ron Paul is his message has been the same ,even when he was a young congressman.  The only difference is now a big portion of Americans are starting to understand the short end of the stick they're inheriting as a result of the national debt, unemployment, a weak dollar, our overseas empire, expansion and nation building.

The only reason his voice is bigger now than in the 1980's is because of what's happend since then, we bombed Iraq, Afghanistan and Sudan and kept our bases on Saudi Arabia, and continued to screw over Palestine in favor of Israel and as a result got 9/11. And what are we doing now? We're bombing Somalia, Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan  and trying to propagate us into a war with both Syria and Iran and trying to topple anti-American regimes and destabilize the middle east.

What also happened since the 1980's? The government violated three crucial Amendments with the patriot act and has not only detained but has also admitted to assassinating American people without due process. Whiles they continue to violated international law at Guantanamo and all around the would.

What else happened? The most predictable financial crisis since the great depression, as the federal reserve, federal government and the bankers contributed to nearly ended our whole financial system.

People realize we have a fundamentally flawed system and are tired of hearing the same solutions said by different politicians, they've heard enough Reaganomics, enough welfare state, enough military expansion, enough bailouts, enough taxing the rich, enough war on terror ext. And that's the people that rotate around Ron Paul.

 It's the kind of people who don't see much difference between Obama getting over a million dollars from Goldman Sachs in 08 and Romney getting 600 thousand so far from Goldman sachs. The same interest... The same politicians.

H.W, Clinton, Bush, Obama

Four different politicians same destructive foreign policy and interest.

I think anti-Romney Republicans are misguided and stubborn if they can't hold their noses and vote for Romney. Maybe that's offensive, but I really don't care.

If these people are truly conservative, they must realize that Obama can't be re-elected.
If these people are truly smart, they must realize that the only two candidates with a shot at winning are Romney and Obama.
If these people are honest, they must realize that they should vote for Romney.

Lol. Your post is exactly the problem with the two party mentality.

1. If these people were truly conservative, they wouldn't be voting for a man who's promised to expand spending on the military and has made zero reference to balancing the budget.

2. If these people are truly smart, they'd realize that the lesser of two evils still leaves you with a bad president.

3. If these people were smart they'd realize that the interest of the same banks are represented in both Obama and Romney's campaigns I.E look at the donations from JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs. If these people were smart they'd realize that Obama and Romney hold the same overly aggressive foreign policy that lead our country to attacks such as 9/11. If these people were smart they'd realize either through unfunded entitlements or expansion of the military both Romney and Obama would explode the debt over the next 4 years.

Like I Just alluded to, the problem with the two party mentality is that you have people afraid to disagree or question a candidate from their party based on principles simply, because you're viewed as being disloyal for not supporting a candidate from your party.

George Washigton warned against political parties because of this extreme group mentality in which candidates are voted on strictly based on their party rather than their actual beliefs. And as a result this system would give rise to politicans who don't actually protect the intrest of their voters.

Depends what you mean by worse? Worse in terms of allowing entitlements to grow at an unsustainable rate? No.

Worse in terms of expanding our imperialistic foreign policy that's on the verge of bankrupting the country? Yes.


Helping defeat Obama doesn't leave the country any better off since Romney also seems comfortable with the idea of trillion dollar deficits if it means satisfying the neo-cons.

This two party mentality makes it more about defeating one person rather than actually fixing the country.
