Well, those things are subjective, but I'll tell you why
I don't like him:
- If he can be president, than Preechr could probably be president, which scares me to death.
- He is anti-governmentto the point it becomes fanciful. He is of course allowed this luxury, sitting in a safe little district in Texas. But Ron Paul has never had to make a serious budget, or actually govern.
- He opposes birtright citizenship.
- He wants us to withdraw from NATO and the UN.
- He wants to get rid of social security.
- He
voted against sending relief money to the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
- He would try to abolish the IRS and the Dept. of Ed., and leave schooling up to "local governments." (Creationism in every red state here we come)
- He oppposes almost every form of foreign aid, and IN MY OPINION, has a very, very naive and foolish outlook on foreign policy. He doesn't support the war on terrorism, and is essentially an isolationist. He supports trade, but not "managed" trade. So, no economic trade deals that actually provide jobs and such to weak economies with shitty governments.
I'm sure there's more, like why he's getting donations from
white power group leaders, but I'll stop there.
