Anybody Else Notice That After Ron Paul Won Last Nights Debate GOLD Is Going Up?

Question

Ron Paul is a long time Gold advocate and wants to return the U.S. to a sound, Gold backed type of money.
He has written several books on the subject.

I don't think it's a coincidence that, so far, the price of Gold is rising today:

The whole worlds financial system, using mostly the American dollar, has been on real shaky ground for the last 3 or 4 weeks, because of mortgage defaults.
Is this a rush out of the U.S. dollar and into wealth preserving Gold, the start of a huge loss of confidence for the U.S. dollar?

Answer 1

Yes, and I believe that Dr. Ron Paul is a genuine genius who many American won't understand till many generations later.

I hope he wins this election. He's our only hope.

Answer 2

I agree with a statement above, that gold climbed because of the fed 'mortgage bail out'.

But can't agree with any statements regarding text msg polls being spammed by Paul supporters.

To any that watched or did not watch the exchange between Dr. Paul and Huckabee- pls review some of the YouTube videos and let the statement by Huckabee really sink in. Do you want a president to stay a wrong course? Especially when the people say NO. Look carefully at what the Huckster's been doing- nothing more than any good Vice President would do, mouth what the boss says.

If you believe that IRAQ was a war about oil, why was it called a war about terror? If we can pull back on foreign spending and foreign politics do you not see that American resources and enginuity will spark a second technological era? Even if, what is being speculated as THE largest oil field on earth, Alaska doesn't pan out our revival will spur the greatest movement in history toward renewable, clean energy.

Have some faith people. Let's get our confidence back- circle the wagons, regroup, free up the creative juices and take our republic back, to the future (as it were).

Answer 3

Now I am a big fan of Ron Paul, but he did not "win" last night. He was poked, prodded, and made to look like a fool. Ron Paul is the only Republican option at the moment (including Fred's introduction last night).

I would love to see us go back to a gold standard. I see gold rising today because the federal government keeps pumping money into the market which should in turn reduce the value of the dollar.

Answer 4

Ron Paul did not win the debate last night. His supporters probably voted multiple times. And the Democrats probably voted for him, which will not be relevant during the Republican primaries. And though he may have gotten more votes than anyone else last night, he still got much less than 50%. Once a few of the other candidates drop out, the anti-Ron Paul vote will consolidate, and somebody will overtake him.

Answer 5

don't be so gullible, fox is lieing about being able to vote more than once. Ron Paul won, get over it!

I think gold went up because the fed just dumped some billions I think into the stock market.

Answer 6

Who watches Hannity and Colmbs? That instruct isn't something yet a sensationalist jib jab that purely drives human beings nuts. How can all of us positioned up with the screaming debates? it is like gazing a prepare destroy. i assume in case you watch Jerry Springer, it is like a comfortable oasis. and that i do watch Fox information. purely no longer the Op Ed crap. Shepard Smith is extremely stable, as is Brit Hume.

Answer 7

Gold has been going up for several years long before Ron Paul ever decided to run. It is called supply and demand.

As for Ron Paul winning: Nice one, Democrats!!! You will get yours when Independents vote Hillary as your front runner in the primaries!!!! Ha! Ha! Ha!!!

Not even Alan Colmes believed the results for one minute. He said, "As we can see, Ron Paul's few supporters keep on dialing and dialing."

Huckabee wiped the floor with him last night.

Answer 8

Paul did not win. I saw the crazy numbers and they even mentioned that Paul's supporters must be text-messaging numerous times.

Paul was a kook last night, especially his melt-down with Huckabee! He's a joke and will not win the nomination.

Answer 9

I wouldnt vote for Ron Paul due to his views on immigration but yes I do think he did very well on the debate. He stood up very well and said what was wrong with America today. My number one candidate changed though it was Guiliani, Mccain. But not its McCain, Guiliani, and I think I am going to give Mike Huckabee a chance he sounded very good also..

Answer 10

Ron Paul has no idea how an economy is run. He would have us going back to the barter system (two chicken for your 1 cow type trade).

The value of gold is based on supply and demand. The demand for gold fluctuates. It is getting close to the Christmas shopping season. Perhaps that's why gold rose.
