I agree, there is nothing racist about it but my point is that someone will try to make that connection and in what appears to be a very uphill battle for Paul anything, no matter how far-fetched, that detracts from his message is just dumb.
Just noticed the address of Ron Paul's campaign headquarters in Texas:
Perhaps he/she could even donate some of the money he/she is being paid to troll towards the cause?

I am in no way a supporter of Ron Paul. However this isn't an issue. Not one at all. People like myself that don't agree with Paul's message of subservience to the corporate overlords, and the return of slavery don't need to harp on irrelevant issues such as the name of the address he chooses.
While it's true that Ron Paul appears to be fighting hard for the degradation of rights for Americans everywhere and it seems that his goal is to have the poorest Americans enslaved to corporate slave-owners as soon as he can possibly repeal the 13th Amendment and bring to conclusion his vision of "The cure for 1984 is 1776". The address he chooses for his assault on the rights of Americans everywhere is not an issue at all.
Well I'm doing something right since the content of my threads has garnered a few more flags than yours. If you would like some advice feel free to message me
Yes, they'd better make damn sure next time that the street name doesn't offend anybody.
Ron Paul needs to fire everyone that's advising him and get a new team in there in my opinion

Now of course it's just an address but Paul is already dogged by the racist remarks in his newsletter, not returning donations from white supremists and speaking out against Civil Rights legislation so why in the world would you add fuel to the fire by placing your headquarters at this address?
How long will it be before the likes of Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton start bringing this up as a "weird coincidence". Ron Paul needs to fire everyone that's advising him and get a new team in there in my opinion. There is of course nothing wrong with this other than the fact that it looks bad and more than likely some fringe group will bring this up and it's a problem that could have been easily avoided.
