    The big problem with Ron Paul is that about 85% of everything he says is dead to right. Then he goes a little coo-coo for cocoa puffs on the last 15%. If he was capable of harnessing that last little bit of crazy he would have been taken a lot more serious as a candidate. Have always been a huge fan of common sense candidates. We need a few more like them.

    Yep. If he could have toned down that last little bit or at least not say it until post election... :D

    I think if people could have given the controversial 15% of RP's a chance or held them up to history it would have taken the edge off the "crazy". Certainly no one else dared to broach those ideas within our narrow political spectrum. I liked him if for no other reason than he made me think outside the Dem and Repub defined box of ideas.

    All candidate have that batshit crazy 15%. Dr. Paul just never learned not to verbalize his.

    Unfortunately, his "crazy" is only considered crazy because it's so far off from the wackiness we've become accustomed to. If you remove the context of our messed up government/political system, it's all quite rational.

    You mean he never became enough of a politician to hide it. Shame on him for being honest.

    Not to me. I don't care about normal, I care about things he wanted to do that I totally disagreed with and think would be bad for the US. Sucks because there was so much I totally agreed with him about.

    But in reality, if he were elected, do you think he'd have ever gotten to do any of his "crazy" stuff? I always looked at the extreme stuff as things that would never make it through the system. Kind of like when you go buy a car and your first offer is $5000 below what you'd actually give.

    No he wouldn't, none of them ever do, they all wind up in the middle doing the same stuff as the last guy. My regret is that just saying that stuff kept him unelectable. If he had a shot at being elected I'd vote for him in a heartbeat.

    Good.

    What he quit anyways? Did he actually have a job? He a baker at Hostess? If he quit that then I'd actually care. :D
