Then I strongly encourage you to sit down with an open mind, throw away your preconceived notions, and actually read about both Ron Paul and the Bible.

Err I already have a fair idea of Ron platform and agree with him sometimes and other times I disagree with him. but none of that changes the fact that other then withdrawing from Iraq Ron couldn't implement his policy's without becoming a dictator.

I agree, and have said the same thing in another thread. Most Libertarians are social Darwinists. That means no government programs for the disabled, the mentally challenged or the mentally ill; no safety net for the most vulnerable people in society. No medicare or medicaid. No social security. Instead, everyone must struggle for existence, and the fittest survive.

Huh ?
Nuclearhead I don't follow your point about the president has more power than a congressman. Going by the US constitution the president powers are limited or spouse to be kept in check by Congress .
Do you think that Ron could implement many of his policy's via executive orders without violating the US constitution ?
