I think its great that the young such as myself see that Ron Paul is the best candidate for president.

With the way the other candidates use the media to cause nothing but drama I often feel like I am watching a soap opera on TV, and when in reality I come to reality to see that I am watching the Presidential Race I actually want to throw up.

For too long already have people that TALK the good words come to power where they never DO the good actions. Instead they just make their own asses warmed up without any care for the middle and lower classes.

Ron Paul is an Intellectual, and a wise man we need in the White House DESPERATELY.

Many of the young voters realize we are on the wrong track and they see through the status quo scam whereas old people spend much more time sitting in front of the TV being mesmerized by the media. Guys like Romney and Obama are the media's darlings and will be promoted while you have to do some actual thinking to understand Ron Paul's message.

Ron Paul a 12 term congressman whom has NEVER ONCE voted to increase taxes, has had consistent policy positions from the start. The other candidates simply say what the voters want to hear. Ron Paul warned us about the housing bubble, the debt crisis, the collapse of the US dollar, the high employment and recessions; basically, the entire collapse of our economy. He is the only candidate who can get us out of our mess.

Ron Paul is a patriot who has honorably served his country as a flight surgeon, defends both the constitution and civil liberties, and is for peace and prosperity. Paul has the wisdom, foresight, honesty and integrity to be president.

Mitt Romney does not where he stands on any issue; Michelle Bachmann is just very angry; Rick Perry does not know very much; John Huntsman has worked for Democrats for many years; Rick Santorum is an extremist; and Newt Gingrich is philosophically unanchored, an unstable element.

America Needs Ron Paul.

Of course old foggies want like the big spending war mongers. More SS and medicare spending for them, and they're too old to get shipped off to war. In 30 years when these paranoid people die off, we'll get back on track.

Ron Paul vs the Warmongers (chickenhawks like Romney, Gingrich, Santorum, Obama; too chicken to serve and too careless with the lives of others). Only Ron Paul is pro-peace, pro-freedom and anti-bankster-bailouts. The Troops and Veterans like me can't stand the ChickenHawks that want to play Commander In Chief.

And I thought the older generations were supposed to be the wise ones. Ron Paul seems to be one of the few from the older generation, who still maintains common sense. Good thing the younger generations are awake!

Former CIA Chief in Charge of bin Laden Unit Endorses Ron Paul

Foreign policy and national security expert Michael Scheuer regards Paul as the presidential candidate best able to keep America strong and secure

LAKE JACKSON, Texas – 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul was endorsed by the CIA’s former lead agent in charge of tracking Osama bin Laden. The endorsement was made in a recent column Mr. Scheuer published on his website.

The former high-ranking intelligence officer Scheuer and the 12-term Congressman from Texas, both with decades of experience working on and witnessing the costly interventionist foreign policy of the past decades, agree that a foreign policy that puts America first keeps America safest.

The endorsement by Michael Scheuer is certain to cause a ripple effect of discussion throughout the political establishment, especially in foreign policy circles where policymakers promote endless U.S. military involvement and subsidization of global security as the solution to conflicts often having an unclear connection to U.S. national security. An endlessly interventionist foreign policy like the one practiced by the Obama administration is certain to result in bankruptcy and increased hostility toward the U.S., a prediction Mr. Scheuer and Dr. Paul both make and endeavor to share with the American public.

“We’re pleased to have the endorsement of Michael Scheuer, who is the world’s leading expert on the notorious terrorist Osama bin Laden and who like Ron Paul understands the connection between U.S military adventurism and emerging threats against America,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton.

“Michael Scheuer understands that only Dr. Paul will put our national security first and stop the foreign wars and nation building. Our campaign is very proud to have his support,” said Mr. Benton.

Mr. Scheuer is a former CIA intelligence officer, American blogger, historian, foreign policy critic, and political analyst. He currently serves as an adjunct professor at Georgetown University’s Center for Peace and Security Studies. Throughout his 22-year tenure with the CIA,he served as the Chief of the Bin Laden Issue Station (aka “Alec Station”), from 1996 to 1999, the Osama bin Laden tracking unit at the Counterterrorist Center. He then worked again as Special Advisor to the Chief of the bin Laden unit from September 2001 to November 2004.
