You maintain your focus on Paul however. He seems to have you quite shook. Is it that the other contenders' flaws are just much more apparent?

Despite your protests and going through the motions you are only succeding in demonstrating your own limited knowledge and understanding

You might do well to start another thread in the appropriate forum if you wish to pursue a more in-debth discussion of the Civil War, this is not really the place for it.

It should be obvious to anyone with more than a cursory knowledge of American history that there was more than merely the matter of slavery involved. There vast volumes written about this.

Let us move on to another of Ron Paul's appeals to folk wisdom and nonsense. I suggest we discuss his economic ideas. What say you?
The Civil War lasted from 1861 to 1865 and led to over 618,000 casualties. Its causes can be traced back to tensions that formed early in the nation's history. Following are the top five causes that led to the "War Between the States."
1. Economic and social differences between the North and the South.
2. States versus federal rights.
3. The fight between Slave and Non-Slave State Proponents.
4. Growth of the Abolition Movement.
5. The election of Abraham Lincoln.
Like I said, this is a Ron Paul Thread. If you want to read about something else, perhaps it's you who should start another thread.
But this thread is the place to discuss Ron Paul's lies and Pandering to racists and bigots, so let's talk about that. Mr. Paul is little better than a snake oil salesman. Most of his policies are peddled to cater to folk wisdom and economic old wives tales and other foolish prejudice.

Anyway, why don't we talk about Ron Paul's occult ideas about precious metals being the only sound money.
