We don't know yet if Walker supports so-called free trade agreements. i would like to know Walker's position on the UN. Has Rand, like Ron did previously, pushed forward a Get US Out of the UN bill each year? The National Review had a hit-piece out on Walker, but any criticism out of that neocon rag I take as a positive for the person they're criticizing. I agree that the MSNBC article you posted above on Walker & bombing ISIS & ground troops is a major concern. I'm sharing that with my JBS friends who told me Walker is the best of the bunch for their take; maybe they'll reconsider Rand.

    If you are worried about neoconservativism, then you have no reason to even think about Walker. He is worse than McCain.

    walker lol
    I'm a moderator, and I'm glad to help. But I'm an individual -- my words come from me. Any idiocy within should reflect on me, not Ron Paul, and not Ron Paul Forums.

    What are we going to tell our kids? Finish high school, don't go to college, and one day you can be President? It may work for a Governor but with the national media (especially if it's a Republican we're talking about) they will never hear the end of it. Not having a college degree is already an issue among Republican radio personalities, let's not make it an issue among our Presidential candidates.
    Your fathers company is simply poorly run.

    A lot of the biggest companies in the States were founded and run by people who weren't graduates.
    In New Zealand:
    The Coastguard is a Charity
    Air Traffic Control is a private company run on user fees
    The DMV is a private non-profit
    Rescue helicopters and ambulances are operated by charities and are plastered with corporate logos
    The agriculture industry has zero subsidies
    5% of the national vote, gets you 5 seats in Parliament
    A tax return has 4 fields
    Business licenses aren't a thing
    Prostitution is legal
    We have a constitutional right to refuse any type of medical care

    Ok, let me get this straight to you guys, I don't want your opinions. I just want facts. Provide proof to Walker being neoconservative. PLEASE, please no offense, but less of your own words, and more direct links to what the man said and how he voted. I don't have much time to read your opinions.

    I don't want to reinvent the wheel. If you have facts about Walker, provide the quotes & votes along with a link(s) so that it will save me time in doing research. Thanks.

    Benjamin Franklin didn't even make it to 'high school.' I'm not going to admonish someone for not being to endure the linear, boxed approach that typifies most universities.

    I'm fine with voting for lawyers who are not slimy though.
