    Because of th F--- up US media--he is obviously the only one that can pull America back from the abyss and that is why he is so unelectable for the media y the 1%.

    No, he's not the best hope. And why is that?

    Because he tried hoaxing voters with urban legends during the 2008 election.

    Video of him doing it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Y30k3nkk54

    In his own words previous to that - http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul349.html

    Anyone so desperate to get votes he'd sink to scaring voters into supporting him is pathetic.

    And worse than pathetic if he actually believes his own conspiracy theory garbage.

    Which begs the question of what excuses Ron Paul supporters have for backing him?

    -Weren't any of them old enough in 2008 to have been paying attention?

    -Why were they so irresponsible as to not research the candidates before choosing him?

    -Are they all just nuts as a whacko as Ron Paul? Or what?

    In the opinion of most Americans, his positions are simplistic and unworkable. His background of regarding fluoridated water as a plot etc. is too wacky for most voters, too. That's why he will never be the President and no, I do not think he is the best hope for the country.

  • haa haa Ron Paul you know why his got on his web site a story about an Australian PM making a statement that never happened how daft can you be than put up as fact what is little more than a email hoax sent around by some right wing nuts on about immigration that is why the guy is nuts, it be like me putting up as fact all them emails i got that i had a great uncle in some part of the world who wanted to send me millions of dollars but all i got to do is send my great uncles lawyer two thousand for him to process all my money through to my bank account.

    I don't like his foriegn policy stance. Too much of an isolationist for me. I sure would like to see most foreign aid ENDED, I don't think that this is a good time to slam the door on the world's face

    Basically, it's because he's a user of marijuana and all of his supporters are users as well.

    Because he is evil.
