I do not view Comedy Central as good for anything other than reruns of Scrubs. However, I have watched Ron Paul in all three televised Republican debates, and I have seen him interviewed on MSNBC cable news TV. I am ware of his antedullivan political philosophy. I find Paul's blame America analysis of terrorism, and his head-in-the-sand prescription for US foreign policy, to be both fallacious and dangerous.
Obviously it was a no. Paul did not have a chance to articulate his thoughts in the debates or in the MSNBC interview? I disagree. The fact that people take their political content from the Daily show is an interesting comment on America in general. There is no doubt the the Daily show is influential and that is scary indeed.Ill take that as a No.
Strange that you watch him in a debate where the speakers have to answer questions in a fixed time, and are even required to answer questions by simply raising their hand.
But you wont watch him on Comedy Central's Daily Show, where he simply speaks for 5 minutes, where you can actually see him form a sentance and understand fully his convictions, and ability to articulate his thoughts.
You dont get that in a debate.

Really? Tell that to Georgia. Certainly the thousands of missiles pointed at Taiwan speak to the peaceful nature of the totalitarians in Beijing. Regardless, Iran does threaten to dominate the Gulf, and the enactment of Ron Paul's hide behind our borders foreign policy would guarantee that. There are more pathways to foreign intervention than mere physical invasion by troops. Even if we had no troops in any Middle East nation, Russian made aircraft carrier killing supersonic cruise missiles would still be pointed at the US Navy from the shores of Iran. Perhaps you suggest the Navy should withdraw from the Gulf? Ron Paul's head-in-the-sand foreign policy would be a complete disaster for the West. Thankfully, it has about as much can of happening as Ron Paul becomming President: zero.

Funny how the head of the CIA's Bin Laden unit agrees with him wholeheartedly.
Blaming bad government policy in the mideast is not much different than blaming the bad government policy at Versailles for creating conditions ripe for Nazism. Yet everyone all across the political spectrum agrees that was a bad policy, and no one accuses them of "blaming america".
Agrees with what exactly? Let's see the link to where "the head of the CIA's Bin Laden unit" "wholeheartedly" says that America is to blame for terrorism, as claimed Ron Paul in the second Republican Presidential debate.Funny how the head of the CIA's Bin Laden unit agrees with him wholeheartedly.

Are you, along with Ron Paul, going to claim that a 1953 coup in Iran, and enforcement of the UN no-fly zone in Iraq, were responsible for terrorist attacks against America? As Ron Paul suggests, maybe if we hide behind our borders, then the Islamic murderers in the world will go away and no one will hurt us. Right? Better yet: let's get the UN to pass a resolution that no one should bomb us. That should make us safe.During the debate, Ron Paul asserted that American interventionism in the Middle East, from CIA installation of Iranian leaders to the bombing of Iraq in the 1990s, culminating in the ongoing Iraq war, led to anti-American sentiment in the Middle East and to terrorists plotting attacks against America. Rudy Giuliani interpreted Paul as implying that America had justified the 9/11 attacks through its actions and interrupted the proceedings to demand a retraction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Presidential_Debates,_2008

Brilliant idea. Lets withdraw our carriers and turn the Persian Gulf into an Iranian lake. Now we better understand your point of view. We should withdraw from the Middle East and let radical Islamic religious fanatics threaten the flow of oil whenever it suits their maniacal purposes, such as when they want to erase Israel from the map, or when the want to force the US to withdraw from Iraq so the totalitarian murder squads can take over. Your idea would lead to the immediate collapse of Western Economies; perhaps that is your aim. "Of course we should withdraw our carriers" would be economic suicide.Of course we should withdraw our carriers from the mideast. There is no benefit to having them there, and it gives the Persians even more incentive to acquire nuclear weapons, because we leave nuclear nations alone. Our response to 9/11 should have been to arm the pilots (with tazers if not guns), not invade Iraq.
So you too think that terrorism is America's fault? It was America's horrible behavior in the world that is responsible for the 3000 dead. We should have stayed at home behind our borders where we would have been safe. We should have not repelled Saddam from Kuwait. We should not have enforced the UN mandated Iraq no-fly zone. We should not have stationed troops in Saudi Arabia to protect it from Saddam. We should have abandoned Israel to the totalitarian Arab regimes encircling it. We have so much for which to atone because of that 1953 coup in Iran. It was, after all, only 55 years ago. How can we have the temerity to oppose terrorist run Iran’s nuke weapons program? It is their right to threaten or even start Armageddon. When Iran has nuclear weapons then they will behave in a civilized manner and no longer perpetrate Hezbollah murder in Lebanon and Israel. How could I have been so blind? You are right, terrorism is the responsibility of America. Bully you have made me see the light. America is responsible for the fall of the World Trade Center, just like that Saudi sheik told Giuliani when he tried to make that donation. Thanks for clearing that up.Ron Paul may be a neanderthal on issues of abortion, same-gender marriages and other social issues, but he was dead on in his assessment of America's, and Europe's, role in the spread of terrorism.
Islamic fundamentalists didn't spring from thin-air...They arose as a direct result of oppression resulting from decades of European colonial rule up until after WWII. American governments from that time until present supported oppressive, tyrannical regimes in the Middle East just so the oil would continue to flow...Including Saddam Hussein. These terrorists could give a shit about our freedoms or whether or not our women can drive cars and walk un-escorted on the streets. Their hatred is the result of our policies in the region that were based only on whether or not the governments in power could maintain the flow of cheap oil. None of our elected leaders, from both side of the aisle, could have given a shit about the populations ground under the heels of those governments, they supported them regardless. That's why they hate us. Wake up to that bit of <i>realpolitik</i> and you'll understnad why George W. Bush and his merry band have been so wrong about so many things since 9/11.

5 Million bucks in 2 months with no corporate backing. The people of this country want Ron Paul's integrity in the Oval Office.
Ron will easily be able to compete, state by state, with the so called "front-runners".
Wake up and smell the PATRIOTISM.

But Muslim extremists are trying to drive the US out of the region, in part to topple US supported governments so they can take over.
