Ron Paul.
"Our fighting men and women take an oath to protect America, defend our Constitution and defend our borders. They look at Ron Paul and see a leader who takes their oath seriously, and who will fight to ensure that we don't misrepresent that oath by sending them off to police the world, instead of defending our country."
Ron Paul's campaign chairman Jesse Benton.
Can you imagine the Gazillions they will save by NOT policing the world and stayed out of others wars! Approx $1 billion a day!!
Other Republicans do not follow Ron Pauls views.  |
They're spending $1.3 trillion to stay in Iraq and Afghanistan, plus their "War on Terror". I was reading about how much they spend on air conditioning alone, in Afghanistan....$20 billion a year!!!!!!. The military-industrial and financial complex is making money hand over fist and destroying their own country, but hardly anyone is lifting a finger to stop it. Shows you how brainwashed and kicked to the ground the people are over there. The US is slowly heading to become an ultra-right wing fascist/capitalist state run by the military and the megacorporations (although it pretty much is anyway) in a totally overt way and no one seems to care. What they need is a revolution.
