If Ron Paul was a man of color...

[BOBO]

...would the left label him as the ultimate uncle Tom or does Herman 'the target' Cain already hold that distinction???

Ron Paul has said that if he were elected President one of his first acts would be to pardon all non-violent drug offenders.

If Ron Paul was a man of color...

He's still be crazy - just black and crazy.

 

[Sallow]

Ron Paul is the guy you like to have a conversation about hypotheticals, but you really don't want to have running anything.

Because he's such a lunatic.

We've already got that

 

[ScienceRocks]

Likely wouldn't be like Ron Paul at all. Likely with a totally different mind set.

Ron Paul has said that if he were elected President one of his first acts would be to pardon all non-violent drug offenders.

And how many of those do you think we actually have in Federal Prison?

 

[CT9]

I'm not sure why this is thread.... I don't know, and he'll never be black so why even go that route?

 

[McDowell's]

I was hoping there would be a poll on what color he should be..

 

[uscitizen]

Ron Paul is a nut even if he was purple.
And I have some very nice purple friends

USDOJ: An Analysis of Non-violent Drug Offenders

Using one set of criteria which limited offenders to no current or prior violence in their records, no involvement in sophisticated criminal activity and no prior commitment, there were 16,316 Federal prisoners who could be considered low-level drug law violators. They constituted 36.1 percent of all drug law offenders in the prison system and 21.2 percent of the total sentenced FEDERAL prison population.

He has color. White IS a color.

Wow, what a strongly reasoned argument against Ron Paul, his policies and what he stands for. You're obviously well informed.

You've changed my mind, I'm voting for Barack Obama in 2012!

He turned down Bruno for a sex tape

He'd be an uncle Tom, and Liberals would openly hate him, rather then use him as a tool against the GOP...

He has an unimpressive record as Congressman
He has a dangerous view of the military and foreign policy
His libertarian views are unworkable in a modern nation
