LOL and quoting fast83 is exactly my point. Not sure if you read the last 2 instances this thread has been around in the past 11 years, but this conversation has always remained the same, I argue the same points, it happens, he doesn't get the nomination. You can't get the nom with an anti-war stance, it just isn't gonna happen no matter how eloquent and exact your points are.Originally posted by stevo View PostAnd sometimes two in each group...

Not sure if I get your point, are you agree with him that Perry has no chance in the primary against Ron Paul?Originally posted by 5.0_CJ View PostNot sure if you read the last 2 instances this thread has been around in the past 11 years, but this conversation has always remained the same, I argue the same points, it happens, he doesn't get the nomination.

I'm saying it doesn't matter, Ron Paul will not get the nomination - he's anti-war. It's over before it begun.Originally posted by stevo View PostNot sure if I get your point, are you agree with him that Perry has no chance in the primary against Ron Paul?

His isolationist views keep many (like me) from totally supporting him. While I don't think we should be the world's police, turning a blind eye to the world will only bite us in the ass in time.

If he got the nomination, I wouldn't have much of an issue with it given our current situation. However, seeing history repeat itself for the third time has jaded me regarding the constant enthusiasm for Paul.Originally posted by stevo View PostHis isolationist views keep many (like me) from totally supporting him.

It's hard to say, time has proven that the most conservative candidates don't always do well (Thompson). Perry is fiscally sound, a little too socially conservative for me. Most of the dissent against him seems to be a personal, or a single policy level. It seems a lot of the people against Perry have this emotional dislike for the guy that they never can substantiate beyond a single piece of legislation. I trust him to run and execute a conservative administration more than any other candidate right now. I trust Perry on fiscal issues, I trust him more than ANY candidate on gun issues. Paul would do what he says for sure, but he's radical enough that he could very well choke up the government with all it's cronyism. Gingrich has a long, long track record of conservative policies, however he is buried in the cronyism and he's not always on the right side of conservative issues.Originally posted by jw33 View PostNot a dig, but who do you totally support and plan on voting for?"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

I've always thought someone ought to just beat them at their own game. It would be all too easy. He could simply lie and say he was pro war, and then get in there and call all the troops home on his first official day in office. That's the politicians creed. Say one thing, then do the direct opposite.Originally posted by 5.0_CJ View PostI'm saying it doesn't matter, Ron Paul will not get the nomination - he's anti-war. It's over before it begun.

They only problem with that is (I believe) RP is a man of his word, and doing something like that would weigh on his conscious.Originally posted by StanleyTweedle View PostI've always thought someone ought to just beat them at their own game.

I like to think that I too am a man of my word, but I'm so tired and fed up with these jackoffs that if it were me, I'd go ahead and just let that one slide so they could have a taste of their own medicine. They deserve it.Originally posted by stevo View PostThey only problem with that is (I believe) RP is a man of his word, and doing something like that would weigh on his conscious.
