This is one of the VERY FEW issues in which I disagree with Dr P

I agree with 99.9% of what Ron Paul says, and very enthusiastically.

But we cant all agree on everything.

One issue, where I do not feel the same as RP is on abortion. The other issue that I dont agree with is the United Nations.

Although I am aware that large organisations can cause tyranny, I believe that Americans have locked on to a popular misconception about the United Nations.

The United Nations really is a force for good. And by its nature, cannot be forced over to tyranny. ... In fact the only tyranny, is that the USA is allowed to veto certain agreements (same as Russia), and this is a rule that both parties introduced which is counter to freedom or fairness.

In any case. I hope for the UN. And I wish that the USA backed it up and supported it.

If USA is to "not be the worlds policeman", or the USA is not to engage in pre-emptive wars, then the US is THE VERY BODY THAT IS NEEDED in the world to achieve international consensus on conflict, diplomacy and war.

UN haters and disagre'ers are quite wrong on this issue. And I will be prepared to debate you.
