Thoughts on RP's Leno interview
Ron's interview with Leno was incredible. He was in a relaxed environment where he got time to respond to relevant questions. Some takeaways:
- "I'm in favor of seat belts, not seat belt laws": this pretty much sums up RP's philosophy on everything. As individuals, we should make good decisions, but we should never use force to compel other people to make good decisions. Take drugs for example; as a physician, parent, grandparent, great-grandparent and rational human being, Ron Paul thinks that recreational drug use is harmful and should be discouraged. But, he believes that we should have the freedom to do what we want with our bodies, even if that means doing harm. Also, he points out that there are medical uses for some substances, like marijuana, and when the people overwhelmingly vote to legalize such use (as in California and other states) the federal government has no jurisdiction to tell them otherwise.
-Michelle Bachmann Hates Muslims: Yes, Ron Paul said Michelle Bachmann hates Muslims (see the youtube). And he's right. How else can you describe a person that would pre-emptively bomb Muslims in another country that have done nothing to harm America? She doesn't even believe that all people are equal, with some cultures being more equal than others (Orwellian, no?). She's a bigot, plain and simple.
-Young people are principled: Most people are born with a general sense of right and wrong. It's only after they've been exposed to the evils of the world that they become corrupted. Young people love Dr. Paul because he speaks the truth and they appreciate an honest politician for a change.
-Joe Rogan was a billboard and live commercial for Ron Paul. People need to give Rogan some props. He wore a Ron Paul shirt and praised Dr. Paul for the first half of his interview with Leno. You can't buy that kind of airtime or endorsement, even with all the massively successful MoneyBombs ($3.2 million last night alone!). Go see Joe's stand-up, watch Fear Factor and thank Rogan for his help in promoting Dr. Paul.
- Freedom is popular.
-Protecting property rights would protect the environment better than the EPA ever could, with less money and more freedom.
-Israel is a sovereign nation and should not have to answer to the US when making decisions about it's borders, peace process or its enemies.
Ron Paul is the best hope for the GOP to beat Obama and turn this country around!
