One of the most divisive figures in the race for the GOP nomination is Republican front-runner Ron Paul. His position on pulling troops out of a no-win unconstitutional war has caused some of the other candidates to mock him during debates, by rudely laughing into their microphones while he is speaking. Those identified on camera were none other than Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney.
Giuliani who has claimed his fame as the former Mayor of New York city during September 11, 2001 by actually walking the streets on the same day with thousands of others, who humbly take no credit for doing the same, attacked Ron Paul during a debate when Paul stated the reasons why we were attacked. Giuliani was soon after, educated by Paul on foreign policy, but offered no thanks for the lesson, or an apology for his rude comments.
Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney has been widely recognized for his Mormon beliefs, and for flip-flopping on the abortion issue. Millionaire Romney like Giuliani supported the 1994 Clinton gun ban, which lost support in Congress and was sun-set. The constitution of the United States, specifically the second amendment states in part, that the people have the right to keep and bear arms.
One of the most compelling reasons Congressman Ron Paul is supported by Republicans and swing voters alike, is the fact that he honors his oath of office to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Paul has a consistent voting record of 20 years and is the most conservative Republican candidate. Supporters of the Paul campaign are thrilled with a solid candidate who makes decisions by the rule of law.
Film actor and former senator Fred Thompson recently entered the race for the white house. While some pundits thought this would cut away at Paul's commanding lead, it only succeeded in shifting those who supported second-tier candidates like Giuliani and Romney to stand in Thompson’s camp, most likely because they enjoyed watching Law and Order in which Thompson play acts.
Newt Gingrich who is contemplating whether or not he will announce his candidacy in early October wants to add to the mix of candidates because he is unimpressed with the Republican line-up. Gingrich has big ideas, but has proven he is not a leader. His own party forced him out as speaker of the house, and he left Congress in 1999. He may think electorates have forgotten his past, but like Thompson, Gingrich will only succeed in pulling supporters from all other candidates except Ron Paul's supporters.
Ron Paul will be our next President. Go ahead and Google him.
