News Bulletin: Ron Paul is a Huge Racist

that only proves he is a two faced liar, like any politician. The proof is he published and profited from racist Newsletters for almost 2 decades in the 80's and 90's.

Whatever you say, sir.

Thanks for the link...further proof this is complete BS. Political. None of this reflects his views, writing style or vocabulary. Clearly written by someone else. How about backing your claims from the mountain of 30+ years of RP video archive. Can you do that Vic? I bet you can't!!!

His name is on them. Blaming this on someone else won't make them go away. All the videos of him in the world aren't going to make these letters disappear. Your guy owes the American public an honest explanation.

Vic, I'm just saying I've read his stuff and I feel confident enough to say you have not. Had you, it would be clear this is not his language. It's a scan of a photocopy of a piece of paper with his name on it. If you could post something recorded which shows he's racist from the massive trove of material out there I would appreciate it. I need to know, if true this will seriously change my views of him. But I don't think you will because you can't. If so I'll apologize to you for being wrong and reconsider my support.

He certainly has a cult-like following to be sure. I just don't understand how they can defend what comes across as so blatantly obvious.

the only ass is Ron Paul! Why would anyone support a racist, misogynistic, homophobic, bible thumping little twerp like Ron Paul? The guy is a clown.

lulz

Yep. I hope you find this funny.

Really?

What does this prove?

That you're in denial.

The fact that these are in typed, and you've never heard Ron Paul speak this way, Is proof that this is bad propaganda. If you think racism is going to play a part in this presidential election then you are wrong. Good luck finding real dirt on Ron Paul. I challenge you to do so.

He's a politician. Just because he's not saying this now doesn't mean that he hasn't before. You can defend him all you want, but it still won't erase what was written.

He did not write these reports. If this is all people can find on Ron Paul, it proves this mans character.

The point being there is no video or audio.

Saying that he did not write these reports does not negate the fact that they bear his name. That he denies writing them or wiggles his way out of any media scrutiny aimed at him does not negate the fact that he made these opinions his own when they were penned under his name. That he won't just come out and discuss these letters openly and honestly proves much more about the man's character than you vouching for him.

RON PAUL 2012!

Vic_romano says, "everything I say are smart becaus i are smart prson!"
Uh oh vic anything you say will not make the facts above go away.

You can attack me all you want. You're free to vote for Ron Paul and spread his message too. However, you aren't going to be able to deny this. Those newsletters are out there for all the public to see with their own eyes, and they're more than capable of making their own decisions about them. Your guy has a lot of real explaining to do.

That is Ron Paul. That is the John Birch Society. I didnt hear a racial word come out of Dr Paul mouth. The JBS was against the civil rights movement in 1964, because it believed it had communist support. They openly accept any and all race, religion, and ethnicity's. They have not and do not push a racial agenda. It is almost 2012, and has been nearly 50 years since they opposed the civil rights act. A lot has changed in those years. Grow up, Ron PAUL is not a racist.

I'm a registered Independent, Buddha. Sadly, my state (Missouri) only allows me to choose one party's ticket to choose from in the primary elections. Because most Republicans on the ticket represent values which are wholly irreconcilable with my own, I refuse to vote on that party's ticket. And yes, Buddha. I do vote my values even though my choices are drastically limited by a two-party system that is, at its very core, fundamentally corrupt.

I am unaffiliated, and I have and will be voting for Ron Paul. He is no racist, and to play that card is childish. These letters are not his writings and never will be.

What's really funny is that no matter how much attention Ron Paul receives on Current, the overwhelming majority of users here probably won't support him in the Republican primaries. Why, you ask? Because we're not registered Republicans, and have no desire to affiliate ourselves with that party in any way, shape or form. And while a few states have open primaries where independents can vote for whoever they like, most don't. So it really comes across as comical when I read people like you defend your guy so adamantly. Good luck.

I don't need to know anymore about Ron than the fruit of his nuts ... Rand the Racist. Rand is too stupid or honest to hide what daddy taught him.

Defending Ron Paul now is nowhere near as bad as it was when nearly the entire website was defending Barack Obama and claiming that he was going to change the world and all of that nonsense.

Now that was comical. Perhaps if I get really bored later I'll go and bump some old posts from 2008 so you guys can see and hear how ridiculous you sound in hindsight.

I wasn't here in 2008, and I supported Dennis Kucinich before the media fucked his campaign. I ultimately ended up voting for Obama in the general election, but had no messianic delusions about him. He was a very moderate candidate if you actually paid attention to his messages--regardless of what the pundits were saying about him.

In hindsight, though, I thought he would be a greater advocate for civil liberties than he has proven to be. And if he signs this indefinite detention bill into law, that will be the last reason I need to vote for a third party candidate.

Just go to Current's search engine, search "Obama 2008 Election" or something similar and have a barf bag handy!

Actually no it's because the majority of current users are liberal Obama supporters which means none of them actually know what they're talking about.

So that's all the reason to vote for Ron Paul you got?

LOL. Maasanova I used up all my barf bags :)

So let me get this straight... because he was a doctor, delivered lots of babies, and helped maintain women's health, sometime at no cost... He must be a pedophile?

Your acute choice of words in describing little girls makes me think you might the one with tendencies... You sure you're not a Neo-con?

Got his rocks off serving streetwalkers free medical checkups... in addition to getting his hands all over young girls in their developing years.

I know a little about "doctors" buddy. Slime away.

When a doctor "gives" healthcare at no cost to women he's making it somewhere else. Like a doctor I had in 2006 when I told him if he would just take a little extra time to help me with my medical issues I would be back to work, so he stood there said to my face MR. RILEY I DON'T HAVE TIME TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS.

But I started checking his bills he sent me and he was htting Medicare up for $200 a visit PLUS sending me a bill for another $100. He was taking my money & Medicare monies to help other patients, and leaving me disabled.

You live in a world of Oz buddy. Doctors are sheisters. They love standing on pedestals being worshipped by dunces such as yourself calling them heroes.

I know from experience what they really are. This doctor left me disabled when my 3 children and wife needed me returned to the workforce. You come on over to Roanoke Virginia and try living in Communist Land a while and they'll give ya the Van Damme treatment as his friend said in the movie => HE'S GONNA KILL YOUR ASS LIONHEART.

We'll see how long you last then.

But I won't flag your filthy comment towards me. I want your filth to stand for all to read, and to know what your heart really has inside it.

As I posted below, just because I'm completely dissatisfied with the current administration doesn't mean that I'm going to support a candidate who, for all intents and purposes, represents such a huge leap backwards in so many ways.

It could be because Obama is our president and Ron Paul is a possible replacement. Stop trying to twist things into something they are not.

How many times words are taken out of out of context. I do not believe it. Let's judge by the actions not by the gossips.

If you don't like gossip, you should share Misti's criticism of Paul. Did you hear all of the gossiping that was put in Ron Paul's newsletter about MLK? Judge Paul on his action of producing these newsletters in his name.

Very disturbing ....

Sure we can.

I hate trolls

Again,President Obama, in his book, is describing the racist attitudes of people where he lived when he was growing up. Given that he was three years old when the Civil Rights act passed, Barach would have been growing up in an America only very slightly after desegregation.
That people, both white and black, around him where he lived growing up maintained racist attitudes towards one another, therefore, is no great surprise.
Nowhere in there did i see or hear President Obama speak of himself as harboring any hatred for any person, white or black.
having read the President's book, i can save you a lot of time by telling you right here and now that no such passage exists.
When the President told Keith Olberman of MSNBC that he didn't know of Reverend Jeremiah Wrights videotaped comments before he saw the videos, he may very well have been telling the truth, and was definitely truthful in stating that he had not been in attendance at the church at the time that the videos themselves were made.
There is nothing in the brief passage from President Obama's book in whih he mentions Reverend Wright that the comments he writes that Wright was making in church about Sharpsville, (Pennsylvania?) and Hiroshima, Japan are the same as, or even similar in any way to, the comment Reverend Wright makes on the video regarding the Sharpsville Massacre of March 21, 1960 (the year before Barack Obama was born in Hawaii),
or the vidoetaped comments of Wright's likening America's Harry Truman's post-Second-World-War peacetime thermonuclear annihilation of the city of Hiroshima, (instantaneously vaporizing a hundred thousand innocent Japanese civilians on August 9, 1945, several months after the Japanese government's ultimately unsuccessful attempts to communicate their desire for a full and unconditional surrender to the United States)
to Osama Bin Laden's 19 Al-Quaieda hijackers' airplane bombings of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan, New York City on September 11, 2001, (murdering three thousand American citizens).

Listen he is talking about whites as a whole. That is racism when you refer to an entire race. I'm sure he was never there or ever heard Racist Reverand's racist comments in twenty years. Please

Yeah yeah go create another account so you can vote it down

What did i evade. Do you have a question?

I'm not next question Why are you a blind worshiper of Obama who is incapable of speaking intelligently?

"he is talking about whites as a whole. "
President Obama writes in his book, and i quote: "I was learning that black people could be mean and then some."
The rest of the passages the video quotes from the book are what another black man is telling young Barack ABOUT white people.
It is therefore not President Obama's point of view at al, but rather someone else's.
So how, exactly, does this sin some bizarre way prove the President is racist?

"I'm sure he was never there or ever heard Racist Reverand's racist comments in twenty years."
He never said any such thing.
What he told Keith Olberman was that he was not present when the videos were being made, which was true, and that he had not heard the specific comments that reverend Wright makes on the said tapes until he saw the tapes themselves himself, which may very well have been true as well.
Once more again, i fail to see how it is that any of this at all proves in any way whatsoever that the Democratically-majority elected President of the United States is, has ever been, or ever will be a racist.

"Why are you a blind worshiper of Obama"
"worship" is a word with far too many theistic religious cult implications for my tastes, but i will say that, at this point, at least as far as the 2012 election goes, one would pretty much NEED to be blind in order to NOT be a supporter of President Obama.

I was just saying I don't believe he never heard Wright make a racist comment in thirty years. Just, curious do you think Ron Paul is a racist?

" I don't believe he never heard Wright make a racist comment in thirty years."
He never said that.

Yes, Ron Paul is a racist, as well as a sexist, a misogynist, and a homophobe.
But his blind ignorant bigotry matters less to me than the fact that he is a reactionary regressive anti-government ideologue and zealot

He shouldn't of allowed racist comments in a book he wrote

And these things in this newsletter are someone elses view not ron pauls. I think you are starting to get what I am doing here, don't you?

I said that, i don't believe he didn't hear Reverand Wright make a racist comment

What did Ron Paul say that was racist?

Yeah worship may have been a bit lite, Yikes I'm sorry you couldn't see what I was doing and I'll stop messing with you so you don't have to waste any more time with those long post. I did get some comedy out of it. :)
Have a good night

" i don't believe he didn't hear Reverand Wright make a racist comment"
He never said he didn't

"He shouldn't of allowed racist comments in a book he wrote"
It was his autobiography.
He wrote what actually happened.
That's why they call NON-fiction.

"What did Ron Paul say that was racist?"
H.R.5842:
A bill to make all Iranian Students in the United States ineligible for any form of federal aid.

Wow . That is racist . How could he even consider thee thought ?!

President Obama stating that his grandmother's racism was "typical" of the environment in which she was raise is not a racist thing for him to say. Given that Obama's grandmother was raised in the Jim Crow era prior to the 1964 Civil Rights Act, prior to racial desegregation and reintegration in America, the racist attitudes that Obama describes his grandmother as having had when Barack was a young child WERE, in fact, typical of the Pre-desegregation Jim Crow era in which his grandmother grew up.
So stating that his grandmother's racism was "typical" of her environment is not racist, but a fact.

What would you say if a white person said a "typical black man". Would that be racist?

That guy is just a typical black guy. Is this not racist?

Why can't you answer the question?

President Obama was not referring to his grandmother as being typical of all white people.
He was characterizing his grandmother's attitudes as typical of white people of her generation.
His statement, as i have already pointed out, was a historically, geographically, and sociologically accurate representation.

If you were to categorize the attitudes of a black person toward white people in South Africa under apartheid, or in America under Jim Crow, as being "typical" of the attitudes of black people being oppressed toward their oppressors, i would have to say that no, that statement would not be racist, as it more likely than not would be at least based upon accurate information, in that oppressed peoples throughout history do, indeed, tend to have very much the same, or at the very least strikingly similar, attitudes toward their oppressors, regardless of who, where, or when they might happen to be.

So i do suppose that it would depend greatly upon what it was that you were saying that the "black guy" in question was typical OF, as to whether your statement might be racist or not.

typical of white people of her generation is still racist. He was referring to all white people. Do you think ALL white people were the same?

He should of said Some white people

It seems we have different definition of racism

"Do you think ALL white people were the same"
A "typical" white person does not need to be the embodiment or personification of every single white person.
A "typical" white person need only share the key, telltale signature, and/or distinctive distinguishing characteristics of the majority of the "white" racial and/or ethnic sociological demographic.
That's what "typical" means.

"He should of said Some white people"
He never said all white people.

Who decides what a typical white person is? He never said some so I assume he is referring to all

"He never said some so I assume he is referring to all"
Well, You know what they say happens when you assume.
