I sure wish he would have talked more about how he differed from Kucinich. He mentioned it in passing, but...

I was the woman from Dover NH. I mentioned how China does not have military bases all over the world, yet they are not considered weak and vulnerable...quite the opposite.

This was a very telling conversation. They don't see eye to eye economically, but they're good friends. This ability to be close friends and have differing views was the only reason our country could even be formed. Those men were statesmen.

Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison did not see eye to eye on everything, but they were all close and more importantly there was an underlying trust which went across the federalist anti-federalist lines.

I think it's critical that Ron Paul has this same type of relationships!

Some of these people calling in aren't real!!! They're plants by the Ron Paul campaign!!!!!! It's all a set up! It's one big conspiracy!!!!

Seriously though, the calls are good. I liked yours about China, QA! And I liked the one about the transition period of getting rid of federal programs/agencies! After this show is over, DONATE! Let's beat yesterday!!

IF they mention 9-11 as inside job,there either dumb or neo-cons planted.IF THEY MENTION 9-11 inside stuff on the call,then your gonna lose votes and they are not supporters or just plain idiots, for mixing the message.they can only attack ron paul with this 9-11 inside junk because a supporter isnt thinking.

HOPEFULLY THESE CALLERS WILL NOT MIX HIS MESSAGE WITH THIS CRAP,IF YOU WANT TO WIN THIS ELECTION

I do too. I'm just concerned about how it's going to be interpreted by Republicans.

I wanted to call in and pretend to be the average citizen and say something like "You are sooo unamurikan sir...you sit and quote our fonding fathers verbatim like they actually did anything for us. What have they done for us....And you think the constitution really matters? This is a new world sir...what has the constitution ever done for us???"

Just a thought...
