Lose so hard that it will reverse the charge on all of the protons in the universe, thereby winning?

Ron Paul's Three-Step Plan To a Free Society^TM:
1) Split the country in two
2) Become president of the southern half
3) Force black people to pick cotton.

New candidate:

Here is why I am writing to you today: on Tuesday, you will go to your caucuses and choose from among a field of Republican presidential candidates. And let me tell you, the idea of any of these people getting nuclear weapons scares the shiat out of me.This is just one of many differences between your country and mine. In North Korea, we lock up the criminally insane. In America, you let them debate on TV. Right now you have people running for President I would not trust to take care of my plants.So who do I recommend you vote for on Tuesday? In a word, me.If you think about it, I am the most Republican candidate of all. In North Korea, we have no taxes. We have achieved that through a conservative policy of no jobs. Also, we have no wasteful "big government" programs providing food, shelter, or safe drinking water. And am I pro-life? Well, try this on for size: I believe that life begins at conception and ends at starvation.Now, I know what you're thinking: I'm too young to be President, since I'm under 35. Well, who would you rather have running your country, someone who's under 35, or someone whose IQ is under 35? (LOL)I think when you look at all the facts, voters of Iowa, you'll realize that Kim Jong-un is the Republican who most deserves your vote.

The fact that he could win, and we might have a logical discussion of liberty and freedom is exciting.

I love the fact we might debate the role of government, as to if we are free, or they own and protect us.

Google bomb Romney so his name is associated with a fungal infection only found on wombat corpses?

You must be new here.

Are Alaska or Hawaii in the Constitution?

Can Mitt flip flop into Rightwing Libertarianism?

How does "I oppose government-enforced segregation" become "I support government-enforced slavery"?

Santorum Romney?

I think when it is "I oppose federal government-enforced segregation" and people read it as "If states wants to enact segregation well that is their right"

fark, I meant "desegregation".

inkblot: How does "I oppose government-enforced desegregation" become "I support government-enforced slavery"?

Because slavery was a private institution, not a government one. The slaves weren't property of the state. It took the state to end the institution. In other words, your premise is flawed from the start.

What makes ron paul different than the other republicans is some of his ideas are good.

s2s2s2: BATSHIAT INSANE!

None of Ron Paul's position are as crazy as our current president's assertion that he can lock you up for eternity, or murder you without a trial.

People read it as "If states wants to enact segregation well that is their right" because that is actually Ron Paul's stated position. He has been clear and consistant in his opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I want RON PAUL to win for teh lulz

It's not even a question of "enacting" segregation. Segregation will happen if the state stops forbidding it.

Mmhm :| but most of them are very bad.

I don't agree with paul but I'm wondering what the racial makeup of state governments likely to enact segregation looks like today vs pre 64. Are minorities still under represented enough the government would be able to pass segregation laws?

Tone down the crazy.

/Simple as that

He doesn't want to force black people to pick cotton.
He wants to give people the freedom to force black people to pick cotton.

Fair point.

because they are extreme they are bad but in the end the watered down versions of his ideas would probably work out better for the country than the ideas the other republican candidates have for the country.

Ron Paul is old enough to know exacty what the conditions for minorties were befor the CRA. His opposition to it is really unconscionable.

s2s2s2: UNELECTABLE
UNELECTABLE
UNELECTABLE

Hence, last night's last thread about democrats supporting RP. He may get votes in a state that is 92% white & Christian will get slammed in a general election.

LOL
It's not a "new" strategy it's just usually called the "Southern" strategy.

Pass legislation that makes each election day, primary and national, Opposite Day.

Carth: I don't agree with paul but I'm wondering what the racial makeup of state governments likely to enact segregation looks like today vs pre 64. Are minorities still under represented enough the government would be able to pass segregation laws?

Like I said, you don't need state governments to enact laws. Just private interests, for whatever reason, discriminating against whole classes of people without the government stopping them to see the return of segregation.

I know people who hate Blacks, but I also know people who hate the Amish. And bygawd, if they could get away with it, they'd hang "no Amish" signs.

I Said: Start early, learn the rules, and use superior organization and devoted young supporters to dominate the arcane but crucial party procedures in states your rivals are ignoring

I have a hard time believing that the GOP didn't learn from Obama's defeat of Clinton. I keep hearing that "Ron Paul has the best/most organized ground game", but I'd think 3 - 4 years after Obama's success the party power would have found a counter to this.

Where have you been for the past few years? It's obvious that it was a very remote place, cut off from all news coverage since you believe that the Republicans are willing to learn anything from Obama.

Minnesota? Don't think so. Ron Paul will not take the Minnesota Primary.

So you are saying that he will reduce black unemployment.

I'm sure certain people/businesses would love to discriminate but isn't it Paul's position that the state government should be the ones to prevent that? It is ridiculous to expect all businesses to understand and adhere to 50 different discrimination laws but are there any states that would realistically be able to pass a law allowing discriminate against blacks?

I think Republicans took control of all levels of government in Mississippi back in 2011 but I don't know enough about the state to guess how likely segregation legislation would be to pass.

Abortion on the other hand would be banned in a good number of states as soon as they could hold a vote.

Can't wait for the History Channel's How Space Alien Strategy Won the Election for Ron Paul in 2012.

If he does win, it will never air. And if he doesn't win, it will never air.

If not president, Ron Paul would make one hell of a Treasury Secretary.

They're not bad because they're 'extreme'. They're bad because they're based on completely false assumptions about human nature.

1. Change last name to "Jeremy"
2. Grow body hair

Carth: I'm sure certain people/businesses would love to discriminate but isn't it Paul's position that the state government should be the ones to prevent that?

No, Ron Paul's position is that anti-discrimination laws are a violation of property rights. He believes all business owners should have the right to refuse service to any group unhindered by the government at any level.

Carth: isn't it Paul's position that the state government should be the ones to prevent that?

Yea, and that's precisely what they failed to do until 1954 when the Federal Government got involved.

inkblot: How does "I oppose government-enforced segregation" become "I support government-enforced slavery"?

Slavery's in the Constitution and Paul's a "strict constitutionalist".

ah ok that is the kind of crazy I expect out of him. I thought he saw it just as a state's right issue.
