I yield the balance of my time.Newsflash...I couldn't care less how a President sounds, I care about how a President THINKS.
Part of the reason Ron Paul came off that way in the debates was the fact that he didn't get to respond to the questions he wanted to respond to, and had to take what few opportunities that came his way to address a multitude of subjects.
And in between those infrequent opportunities he was subjected to some of the most vile and baseless attacks that Santorum and Gingrich could manufacture.
Well that is fine for you. However real world says otherwise.
Please do not tell me Paul didn't get a fair shake. That is an excuse.
In debates, each participant gets an equal amount of time to answer questions and in the case of some debates, a set amount of time for rebuttal.
This is why debates have moderators.
Ok, notwithstanding your descriptors of the alleged attacks, this is precisely what I am referring to. In the face of uncertainty or stress the Chief Executive is supposed to be above that. To behave in a certain manner which presents control and calm.
The one thing that separates a President from most others is his intelligence. Becoming emotional and raising one's voice is a FAIL..
It matters not how pissed off the guy got how stressful the situation, he MUST behave in manner which dignifies the Office.
This guy is a troll... he's not even a good one. It is actually more of a poor reflection on the person debating him, than it is on him. If he pisses you off so much that you can't not reply to him... I suggest you put him on ignore.
Do not argue with an idiot they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience ~ Not sure who originally said that. But it's true.
