Is Ron Paul a complete racist?

Question

There are plenty of white supremacists and neo-Nazis who support Mr. Paul's campaign.

Is this just a coincidence? Or should we further analyze his previous statements:

"I think we can safely assume that 95% of the black males in that city (Washington DC) are semi-criminal or entirely criminal."

Answer 1

"We need to permanently remove voting rights from the ignorant who think Ron Paul is racist.

They obviously aren't fit to vote."

The most ironic part is that these are the folks who say they are for the constitution. Except when it threatens their bid for tyranny, then constitutional rights should be suspended for people who don't agree with them. Ron Paul supporters are anti-Freedom and pro-Fascism. And they wonder why normal people refuse to fall into line with them.

Answer 2

A lot of my colorful cousins support him because he obviously doesn't include race in his policies. He believes the government should protect all individuals vigorously. If individuals are protected, race doesn't matter. The Constitution is a brilliant document, and Ron paul is its champion. Actually what Ron Paul really is, is a free-market economist. He holds free market principles dear, and if you understand that, you understand that there's no room for racism in his policies. The Constitution has had protections against racism since the Civil War. As a champion of the Constitution he will uphold the law, whether he is racist or not. If you did your research, you would know that the quote you are citing is erroneous. He didn't say it, and the guy who wrote it was dismissed for writing it in his name. When you look at all the BS surrounding the other top-tier candidates, this is relatively minor. You should really check him out. If you had a good American history teacher in school, Ron Paul is probably the most interesting candidate you've ever seen. He's talking about the Bill of Rights and all that crap you had to memorize and forget. You probably still remember a bit of it. Seriously, this guy is preaching the constitution. He's worth a serious look. Maybe he's not "the saviour", but he could influence a whole generation towards less corruption and greater integrity.

Answer 3

The video says no longer something approximately Ron Paul no longer to show if he's a racist or no longer. it is a rap approximately bill O'Reilly. it is not any longer in simple terms the liberal media this is doing it. fake information and different conservative information agencies, which includes the hyperlink I even have presented. this is till you think of the Christian technology video demonstrate is liberal. so a approaches as Ron Paul, he revealed a chain of newsletters, a lot of them are incredibly racist in nature. His claiming that he did no longer examine or write them would not carry water on account that his call is the identify of the e-newsletter. are you able to think of a e-newsletter with "Ron Paul" on the ideal in headlines and Ron Paul expects all human beings to think of he did no longer even examine them? You did no longer prepare that any of this is fake. z

Answer 4

Ron Paul has a diverse following as do many other candidates. Mike Huckabee has received donations from several pedophiles, Rudy Giuliani's own co-chair has been quoted stating "African Americans are retarded" & Barack Obama not only is backed by the most abrasively anti-gay gospel singers, he had them represent his campaign on his "Embrace the Courage" gospel music tour

I don't think it's fair to hold these candidates accountable for the individuals that support them.

As for the comment you posted, it was actually written by a fired staff member. The only direct comments about race from Ron Paul are written on his congressional website.. they appear to be opposing racism.

Answer 5

Just because they support his campaign, does that mean Dr. Paul shares their beliefs? No. They support him because they like his message. And many Americans of all walks of life support him, not just white supremacists. Plus, that statement wasn't from Paul, it was a ghost writer who was later fired. Yet, Paul took the blame because it had his name on it, not because he said it. I wonder when the rest of the candidates will even have the guts to tell the truth?

Answer 6

I don't think he is racist i read a little about him, he is for all people, and he cares about his country.

Answer 7

We need to permanently remove voting rights from the ignorant who think Ron Paul is racist.

They obviously aren't fit to vote.

Answer 8

I'm not sure if he's a complete racist, but he IS a complete idiot.

Answer 9

Ron Paul is about as racist as Gandhi was. Can we stop with the racist and race card remarks yet?

Answer 10
