Ron Paul Addresses Boos From South Carolina GOP Debate


Ron Paul is pushing back against critics of his “Golden Rule” in foreign policy and questioned those who booed him at Monday’s GOP presidential debate.
Speaking in Spartanburg, S. C. Tuesday afternoon, Paul referenced America’s threats of an oil embargo on Iran.
“This is why I bring up the “the golden rule” if we don’t want people to ban oil imports to our country, why should we do that to another country,” said Paul adding “I don’t know why that is such a negative term for people to boo that.

Ron Paul has NEVER said he wouldn't go to war. Not one time. What he says (consistently) is that we should stop invading third world nobody nations that are barely out of the Iron Age and if we do, it should be by a Declaration of War initiated by Congress, which is what the Constitution says is the proper and LEGAL process. But, again, they (his opponents) start the nationalistic rumblings and try to whip the crowds up with chest-thumping references to "kill our enemies!!", ending with chants of "USA! USA! USA!". And it's shocking to see how many people STILL fall for that crap. He wants the government to follow the Constitution. The problem with THAT is what, again?

Well, Imclain. The problem is that it doesn't support the endless feeding of the military industrial complex with money that we borrow from the FED (another unconstitutional entity) to be paid back with interest using taxes taken from fruit of U.S. Citizens labor. I mean really? How are these poor bankers supposed to get their million dollar salaries and bonuses? C'mon man! Roflmao!

Ron Paul told the truth and the people of South Carolina booed him for it..One thing about Ron Paul is he will always tell the truth and he never sugar coats anything...If you don't like the truth you probably won't like Ron Paul.
