The president and other government officials denounce school violence, yet still advocate for endless undeclared wars abroad and easy abortion at home.

If you can’t protect life, then how can you protect liberty?
Ron Paul

Scientifically, there's no debate over whether the fetus is alive and human.
Ron Paul

Income taxes are responsible for the transformation of the Federal government from one of limited powers into a vast leviathan whose tentacles reach into almost every aspect of American life.
Ron Paul
Image
What if the American people woke up and understood that the official reasons for going to war are almost always based on lies and promoted by war propaganda in order to serve special interests?
Ron Paul
Image
I'd like to think of myself as the flavor of the decade.
Ron Paul
Image
But whether the resistance against government tyrants is non-violent or physically violent, the effort to overthrow state oppression qualifies as true patriotism.
Ron Paul
Image
Back a hundred years ago, especially around Woodrow Wilson, what happened in this country is we took freedom and we chopped it into pieces.
Ron Paul
Image
Just think of what Woodrow Wilson stood for: he stood for world government. He wanted an early United Nations, League of Nations. But it was the conservatives, Republicans, that stood up against him.
