    Default Are there any issues you disagree with Paul on?

    I support paul i even voted for him in my state but im wondering what areas people here disagree with him on. For me personally:

    1. Doesn't believe in Global warming.
    2. Doesn't accept evolution despite it being as factual.

    You might want to research your assumptions.

    Ron Paul's views are nuanced. He isn't a bumper sticker.

    He is religious but says his views don't preclude evolution, however, he resents questions about religious beliefs being raised as if they were a religious test for office. He also believes the earth does what it does in temperature. His belief in the limits on the federal government govern his views of law, so it doesn't matter whether he thinks humans are involved or not.

    Global warming differs from global climate change.


    You knew that right?
    Los Angeles County Republican Party (the largest GOP central committee in the nation)
    -57% of the executive board is liberty
    -43% of the executive committee is liberty
    -40% of the central committee is liberty

    Getting involved at the local level is the most important thing you can do to WIN

    be ACTIVE, be EFFECTIVE, be ORGANIZED, be STRATEGIC, be VICTORIOUS.

    I disagree on certain envrionmental issues.
    "Governor, if I had foreseen the use those people
    designed to make of their victory,
    there would have been no surrender at
    Appomattox Courthouse; no sir, not by me.
    Had I foreseen these results of subjugation,
    I would have preferred to die at Appomattox
    with my brave men, my sword in my right hand." - Robert E. Lee to Governor Fletcher S. Stockdale (D-Texas), 1870

    There are multiple issues where I disagree with Ron Paul on.

    I am opposed to cutting taxes during a deficit

    I do not want to eliminate public schooling.

    Although I do not want the US to to withdraw from NATO or the UN.

    I do not share his dogma that "government is always less efficient than private enterprise".

    and on that note, I am not completely opposed to public healthcare.

    If you wanted some sort of Ideological purity, you'll get none of that from me.

    Ron never even advocated ending public schooling when he ran on the Libertarian ticket in 1988. His stance has always been eliminating the mandate to attend public schools.

    Open borders is part of the UN agenda -- world wide redistribution of wealth, etc.
    How else can you create and close borders than with a government? You can't beat back a government when you empower it.

    "Open borders" is NOT synonymous with the UN/progressive agenda, anymore than being anti-war or pro-drugs is synonymous with the progressive agenda, or anti-tax exclusive to the conservative agenda.

So advocates of liberty must reject incremental approaches and fight boldly for bedrock principles.

    And returning education to the state and local level.

    To put it into perspective, If you agreed with Ron Paul on all the things I've listed, but disagree with him on everything else, You'd be Rick Sanatorium.
