Ron Paul's 2012 Bid Wilts Under Newsletter Scrutiny

Lies! This article sucks. Ron Paul will win despite your uneducated smears. Why don't you write an article about the abbhorring NDAA law that is being passed right now- that would be actual journalism. YouTube Ron Paul - a man of compassion- that's how racist he is.people like you are tyrants against this country and you should be ashamed of yourself.

As far as the newsletters go, let me ask you a question. Suppose you were Paul, and became aware of the content of the newsletters long after they were printed. After reading them (since you knew the people that worked on them) you were able to identify to your satisfaction the person who wrote them, though you had no hard evidence other than the style in which they were written.

Fast forward another ten years. Your popularity is soaring, you're number one in the Iowa polls - even the media is being forced to admit you might actually win - and this newsletter thing surfaces.

Now, there's a simple way to make it go away. Betray your friend, point them out - shame them and subject them to the same humiliation you're receiving - hey they deserve it right? It may well cost you the Presidency to hold on to this point of honor and refrain from implicating them. It would be SO easy. NOW you have a notion of the honor and the principles of Ron Paul. He WILL NOT do what he believes to be wrong - not even if the Presidency is the prize.

Vote For The Man With A Spine - Ron Paul 2012!

When Paul haters aren't busy marinating in ignorance they are claiming how non-intervention is isolationism. Explaining how free trade and self defense is not isolationism, you say that sanctions and installing dictators is what isolates.

"Texas Congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul is not a racist and is being smeared as one because he is a clear threat to the political establishment" - Nelson Linder, Austin president of the NAACP."

Covering their ears while chanting 'la-la, isolationist, I can't hear you' you remember to expect the same amount of intellect when responding to charges of racism: ZERO.

Ron Paul owes his economic philosophy (Austrian Economics) to Jewish scholars like Ludwig Von Mises and praises MLK for his libertarian principle of non-aggression. As a doctor, he treated patients of all colors for free:

Either there is such a thing as a racist man with Jewish heroes OR corporate owned media is recycling smears in order to stop a man who's very presence condemns the sellout politicians who own them.

They know that as President, the troops would be home day ONE, along with non-violent drug offenders which, sadly, many of whom are minorities. They know that if Paul is President, the party is OVER.

I suggest you do some honest research before you are fooled into empowering another fraud.

Very large majority of Blacks will vote obuma. I don't know how wide spread these charges are know.

Put evidence and that tape side by side I doubt the video would win much of the time...

Does this mean the editor of your news will be responsibile for every single sentence in every single publication? The media and the hype. Why can;t you spend a little of this effort focusing on the real issues like the Federal Reserve and how they have robbed American workers to pay Wall Street for years. What about all of the bombing our country and coups of other countries our government secretly or not so secretly participate in that results in resentments and retaliation toward the citizens. Pull out your pen and paper and address something real for a change instead of harping on allegations without foundation to drive your personal afront to liberty and freedom --- what is so radical about abiding by the constitution? Ron Paul's bid is not wilthing, just your imaginations for spinning it into something it is not. The people are tired of this and it is time to reclaim our freedom. Either you are with us or against us, but with the internet on our side now - the truth will prevail.

Boris, all we have to do is read your bio to completely dismiss anything you have to say.

"Boris Epshteyn is a Republican political strategist, investment banker, and finance attorney currently living in New York City. He was a communications aide with the McCain-Palin campaign. He is also a regular guest on MSNBC, CNBC, Fox News, and radio programs nationwide providing analysis on topics including political strategy, financial markets, international affairs, future elections, and party relations."

Your kind's days are numbered. We the people are sick of you and everyone like you. This country is waking up and we're not buying your propaganda anymore. You're opinion isn't anywhere near as important as you think it is.

You said: "...neither of which Ron Paul denies"

It's cool though. We're happy to do your research for you. That's fine.
