pbnative that is one point, but it takes a lot more than just the support of the president to enact an anti-abortion law. If everything Bush was for/against was passed into a law, we might be clubbing you and dragging you around by the hair by now. No one candidate can be perfect for everyone. You must look at all the issues facing the nation right now and see how each candidate will handle it.
People get fixated on believing that one man has all this power and everything he wishes will come true. It’s not the case. It takes a combination of congress, the senate, the house, and all those other people you should be very familiar with before voting. If anything the president is highly symbolic in many ways. Just someone for us average Jo’s and Jane’s to focus on.
That being said, Ron Paul has extremely strong pro-life beliefs and as a congressman has even enacted legislation to overturn the famous Roe Vs. Wade case.

December 14, 2007 at 4:56 PM #117258blahblahblahParticipantHe will make sure that I cannot be allowed to have a medical procedure that he believes is wrong.
This is not true at all. He has made his position clear on this topic many times. He believes that this issue is for the states to decide. As long as you reside in a state in which the people decide to make this procedure legal, you’ll be able to have one if you choose.
The basic principle he applies in this case is that the more difficult or divisive an issue is, the more local the laws governing it need to be. This allows like-minded people to form communities in which there is general agreement. Trying to force everyone in a country of 300M+ people to adopt the same stance on an morally difficult issue like that one is simply unrealistic.

December 14, 2007 at 5:07 PM #117272andymajumderParticipantI think Washington insiders will always make sure that somebody like Ron Paul does not come into power. If he does a lot of people in Washington are going to loose their jobs. If there ever comes a time that somebody like Ron Paul has a realistic chance of winning the election, both democrats and republicans might unite against him.
