However, the fact that a Republican is pro life is not a shocker at all. I'm sorry, I just don't get him. I'm decently into current events / politics. But to think Paul really has a chance? I don't have any reasons to dislike him. Frankly, I am a strong fiscal conservative like him but there are more issues than the economy. My question is, what is so good about the guy? Why does the young crowd like him? I watch more news than the average Bear at least for the last year or so but I must have missed something huge for Paul. Someone please fill me in.
Right, duh. Hes the only Republican thats is strongly against the war. Is that it? That doesn't explain why the young liberal crowds love him. Right right right, its bad to lump people together like that with no stats to prove, but common. You guys have to see that its true. |
Heh, the mainstream media doesn't talk about Paul, because they have a vested interested in keeping the status quo.
You have to do more than watch the news to know anything about politics. Take a poly sci class at your local community college or do some research on the internet. Try to do research for yourself instead of asking for it to be served up to you on a silver platter.
To some him up *very* briefly: He's the only candidate that isn't influenced or controlled by the elites in this country.
