Go 474 !!

Can you believe the amount of questions this story is generating, on a page you have to feverishly look for?
I wonder how many are coma patients finally coming around.

One of my favorites is # 474s response to idiot # 473

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. Thomas Jefferson

One of my favorite questions and great idea...

Dr. Paul, during your campaign I urged my peers online to get their meetup groups off the street corners waving signs and into the community at large as a visible philanthropic force. Taking up the government’s slack at providing services such as keeping parks clean, driveway shoveling for the northern states with harsh winters, food drives for the local food bank, etc.

My concern is that people are unaccustomed to seeing our philosophy in action. Who would keep the poor fed and sheltered? Who would keep the parks clean for children to play in? Who would help those in need? We the people would!

Is your vision of the Campaign for Liberty entirely political, or do you see yourself urging liberty lovers into these social activities as well, and even using your PAC to coordinate such efforts?

Should someone step up and set precedent/example to get the ball rolling for all meetup/truth groups to become more well rounded and wise?

NYTBlog Questions. C4L site suggestion

Maybe Ron Paul and his staff can put all of these questions that people are asking (some are the same- group those together) and answer all of them on the Campaign for Liberty. This would show he's listening and I'm sure the writer will at least mention the C4L and people can go there and check it out.

Heres one from some guy:

Chris asked:

"Why do you have such a rational position, but so many of your (admittedly more visible) supporters seem irrational? "

I think this is actually something we need to work on.

Even though i know most issues we discuss are not irrational they may seem that way to an uneducated population. No reason to hide any information but we must first build a base to lay these ideas upon.

We are

a very misunderstood bunch.
Just take the RP convention in Mn... the GOP was sure we were going just to disrupt their convention, but it was nothing of the kind.

I think the republicrats have a hard time putting us into perspective.

Maybe

We can ask him if Africa is a continent. Or perhaps ask him what countries are in NAFTA. Apparently that's enough to stump some politicians.

According to 'anonymous

According to 'anonymous sources'. I'm no big fan of Palin, but please, don't let the retards in the news media play us for suckers like that. It's the same strategy they've used against Bush for the last 8 years: Bush/Palin is stoooopid. And by extension, their approved candidates are somehow meaningfully less so.

Remember. within a very narrow margin of error, they are all the same. All trash. Every single, bloody one of them, unless they are in reasonably close alignment with Dr. Paul.

Actually...

It's according to the McCain campaign.

'anonymous sources'

'anonymous sources' supposedly within the McCain campaign.

Up to 234 questions, some good, some dumb, some goading

I asked him what could we do about changing our election system to get third parties on ballots & in debates and how to get rid of the electronic voting machine/vote count fraud

(I'm sure that played a major role in him dropping out of the pres race)

March 13 secret congressional meeting

I asked whether Dr Paul attended the secret congressional meeting of March 13, 2008. Dennis Kucinich had said he will not attend. So I also asked whether Dr Paul had any comments about the "leak" that followed, given that they are bound not to divulge what was said.

This is the "leak": http://dprogram.net/2008/...

Does anyone here know anything about it?

There's only one

relevant question I can think of and that is "will you please run again in 2012?"

Why Bother?

The world is going to end between the next election and inauguration.

JK ;-)

hmmm

...there are a few provoceteur idiots on there but for the most part, intelligent questions.

NYT for that matter!

Man, the country missed the boat.

114 great questions, keep it coming

And the neo-cons are meeting somewhere in a bunker to discuss the real issues!??????

They only need to consult with Dr. Paul and his followers if they are interested in restoring the party, but I guess they are more interested in using lipstick!

Would you accept ...

an appointment as Treasury Secretary for an Obama administration?

only in a daydream!

The chosen one Obamagic has had his cabinet and administration preselected for quite some time. Requirements are they must be top tier Federal Reserve and CFR elite. He is merely a puppet taking orders now.

I think that would be a "no"

As long as Obama is not going to get rid of the Fed or drastically downsize spending, RP couldn't accomplish much as Secretary of Treasury.

Gold...

When can we expect gold prices to go back up?? Do you feel that Peter Schiff's company, Euro Pacific Capital, is a good company to invest with, and if so what foreign stocks would be the safest bet?

a lot of great questions

so far. :)

Get your question in!
