Ron Paul on the Issues

This started as a response to a comment by Meg, but I opted to just post it completely.

'I want to know how he's just going to reduce taxes.' Dr. Paul not only wants to cut or eliminate the Federal income tax, but also reduce business taxes. To compensate he wants to reduce spending by the Federal government; cut the programs & agencies which require taxes, and you can cut the taxes. Also, he would target the Federal Reserve and bring it under control or elimination, because it's policies of money printing help fuel the unprecedented inflation we've experienced in the last 35 odd years. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/debt-and-taxes/

'Securing the borders.' Dr. Paul has outlined a very specific 6 Point Plan for securing America's borders, and called for legitimate immigration reform to find a fair and legal method of immigration assimilation. His first priority is securing the borders and dealing with the 10-20 million illegal invaders estimated to reside within America, then to move on to permanent immigration reform. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/border-security-and-immigration-reform/

'Deliver[ing] more than 4,000 babies.' Dr. Paul has served 40 years as a medical doctor, and his experience as an OB/GYN doctor has dictated his approach to the issues of healthcare and abortion. Having served for over 40 years and delivered more than 4,000 babies, he admits that not once did he ever recommend an abortion or find it medically neccessary to save the life of the mother. He furthermore recognizes that a society which denies life and liberty to its innocent and most defenseless members (unborn babies) cannot simultaneously preserve or champion life and liberty for other members without succumbing to hypocrisy. He also recognizes the inherent Constitutional danger of allowing Federal courts to intervene in state affairs and dictate legislative and judicial changes to them, which abortion has triggered. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/life-and-liberty/

Perhaps this might be slightly thought provoking or helpful. For a comprehensive platform on what Ron Paul stands for, visit this link: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/. Never forget, as well, that as the ONLY candidate in either party to be on record as having voted AGAINST the war in Iraq in 2003, Ron Paul is also the only legitimate anti-war candidate running. He resisted the Imperial Militarists' propaganda and deceptions 4 years ago, and he's openly calling for an end to the war now. All the other Republican or Democratic candidates cannot say that.
