I think Tunk makes a perfect point that illustrates quite clearly that you are wrong. Again, if that is the case, why has Ron Paul been saying the same thing his entire political career, whether it helped him in the polls or not? I think it’s quite clear if he would just support the warmongering and the establishment position on Israel, he’d be a shoo-in. Listen to them whine and all but admit that on Fox News. I think this was even more true last time around. He’d probably be President right now if he would have simply changed a few things to more “mainstream” rhetoric.
Also, on the racist issue, addressed by Ron Paul himself, here.
