Quote

How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building don't police the world. That's conservative, it's Republican, it's pro-American - it follows the founding fathers. And, besides, it follows the Constitution.

Close Dept. of Education, but don't dismantle public schools.
Ron Paul
Image
Congress remains in total denial as our liberties are rapidly fading before our eyes. The process is propelled by unwarranted fear and ignorance as to the true meaning of liberty. It is driven by economic myths, fallacies and irrational good intentions.
Ron Paul
Image
Foreign aid is taking money from the poor people of a rich country and giving it to the rich people of a poor country.

One thing is clear: The Founding Fathers never intended a nation where citizens would pay nearly half of everything they earn to the government.
