I had a ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington’ experience as governor.
Let’s end the unworkable marijuana prohibition and put our money where our mouth is. Let’s solve the problems like border crime. We can do it with pot legalization.
I’m asked, what about criminal prosecution of those on wall street? You know what, it’s probably because none of them committed any crimes. They just made some incredibly bad decisions.
We’re on the verge of a financial collapse unless we balance the budget, and that means some really, really tough decisions.
I’m finding myself really angry over spending and the deficit. I’m finding myself really angry over what’s happening in the Middle East, the decision to stay in Afghanistan indefinitely. I’m angry about cap and trade. And I’ve been on record for a long time on the failed war on drugs.
Regardless of my legislation, spending has to be stopped.
I don’t smoke marijuana anymore. I don’t drink. Marijuana is a handicap. So is alcohol. Alcohol is a terrible handicap. But in spite of being a handicap, it shouldn’t be criminal.
Balance the federal budget now, not 15 years from now, not 20 years from now, but now. And throw out the entire federal tax system, replace it with a fair tax, a consumption tax, that by all measurements is just that. It’s fair.
The excitement right now is coming from the Liberty movement. And the Republicans want a piece of it.
I think libertarians need somebody who can articulate getting from A to Z. But you know, if G is achievable, how about it? Let’s get there!
It’s not 2038 that Social Security is bankrupt. It’s now.
Regardless of who wins, an election should be a time for optimism and fresh approaches.
Life’s a party. Invite yourself.
Having a debate right now over whether or not to legalize marijuana is kind of like having a debate over whether the sun will come up tomorrow.
Ron Paul’s revolution isn’t a fluke. It’s the future.
How simple life is. We buy a fish. We are fed. We sit close to each other, we talk and then we go to bed.
Immigration is a good thing. We should make that as easy as possible.
Tonight was a great opportunity to take on the political status quo that has given us trillion dollar deficits and put millions out of work. Our objective was to inject some common sense into the conversation among Republicans at a time when business-as-usual simply won’t work.
I’m absolutely a Ron Paul fan.
The current prohibition laws are forcing drug disputes to be played out with guns in our streets. We need to put a stop to this criminal drug element in our country.
