larsplankin I'm a member of the CFR, and I can assure you that you can't stop the NAU - we've already got the flag for Amexicanada, you'll love it.

larsplankin You're right, I can't take the heat. Ron Paul is right on the CFR/NAU. You should tell everyone about it and explain to them that you are a Paultard, so that they all know to vote for Ron Paul.

lol more sarcasm because you got exposed. and no, I'm not voting for ron paul. as i said before I'm a kucinich liberal but I can see that ron paul is paying attention on the real issues like the CFR and the Fed. ron paul is wrong on gay marriage, wrong on don't ask don't tell, wrong on SCHIP, wrong on abortion, wrong on education, etc. but those are secondary issues to the fascism rising in our government right now and ron paul is right where it counts.

Love Ron Paul and his timeless message. He does indeed set the best example. Should have listened to him then. Also love this wonderful host. Unlike the nervous Nellies of today, Howard is so relaxed and makes it easy to listen and understand the conversation no matter how complex the topic. Thanks for posting this video and Thanks to all the people who produced this video.

Yes but under Ron ... ( 3 months ago by sunstorm007)

Yes but under Ron Paul's view of the Constitution any State should be able to completely prohibit Firearms. Ron Paul is a hypocritical nincompoop.
A lot of people don't know this about Ron Paul.

The purpose of the Bill of Rights is to protect individualism. The second amendment applies to individuals "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed". Ron Paul agrees with this interpretation.

Yes, but he's ... ( 3 months ago by sunstorm007)

Yes, but he's against the "Incorporation Doctrine." Before the incorporation Doctrine the Bill of Rights only Applied to the Rights that the Federal Government can't violate. The States can Violate the Right to bear Arms, but the Federal Government cannot. Before the passing of the 14th amendment in 1868 none of the Bill of Rights applied to the States.
Factoid: The Freedom of Speech did not apply to the States until 1925. In Fact, the 2nd amendment still does not apply to the States

Look up the Supreme ... ( 3 months ago by sunstorm007)

Look up the Supreme Court Cases:
Barron v. Baltimore Gitlow v. New York Free Speech case Also look up this case where the Freedom of Religion didn't apply to the States until 1940 Cantwell v. Connecticut This will inform you of the Incorporation Doctrine. Ron Paul has stated, he is against Incorporation doctrine. He ma
y be against restriction of firearms but he has no Constitutional Basis for limiting the State's rights to enforce Gun Control according to his logic.

Interesting topic. ... ( 3 months ago by zuckfat)

Interesting topic. From what I understand, Paul's rejection of the incorporation doctrine is one of philosphy. First, it permits the federal courts to be used to decide state issues, and second it is contradictory since in many cases the feds are violating the bill of rights simply by "sticking its nose" where it is not allowed. I have no doubt that Paul's views are of Individual rights and, from what I understand, the 2nd amend. hasn't been incorporatad anyway like the 1st or 5th.

I understand what ... ( 3 months ago by zuckfat)

I understand what you're getting at though. I think that it is clear that the intent of the 2nd amend. is one of preserving individual rights. The Jeffersonian anti-federalits demanded the bill of rights to protect idividual liberty regardless of state affilliation. Now does that technically only apply to federal powers? I don't see any judicail precedent for it. Maybe I'm wrong...good talking to you though

Second Amendment is a federal mandate to the states. It cannot be infringed. RPFTW

I think a lot of ... ( 1 month ago by matt47274)

I think a lot of people actually get that fact. With localized government he is saying that if Indianapolis Indiana as a community wants to ban firearms then they can but it won't affect Louisville Kentucky. This is not hypocritical he wants the community to decide for themselves and not the federal government.

No, I don't think ... ( 1 month ago by sunstorm007)

No, I don't think People get that fact. Almost all the Ron Paul Supporters I talk to do not know this. Of Course the Second Amendment has not been incorporated anyway, so Ron Paul can support the current construction by the Supreme Court in that regard.
However, Ron Paul wants the Local Government to able to restrict: Freedom of Speech Freedom of Religion Freedom of Press

Funny that the Marines, DHS, FBI, etc. just took over ("pre-deployment exercises") a large repressed part of town there. Indiana has also given up their highways to the Spanish in the recent past. It looks like the heartland has already been communized. I don't know about you but I'm arming myself and moving to New Hampshire with the Free State Project.

No that's just ... ( 1 month ago by PhilintheBlank0)

No that's just legality. In fact, that's how it worked when the constitution was first in use, because the constitution is meant to regulate the federal government only, unless specifically stated otherwise.

That's what a principled man sounds like.
