RON PAUL: PANDERER TO THE PARANOID?
While I understand you don't believe all of us are the paranoid fringe, remember that Paul's stance is essentially the same as the founding fathers; he believes that power has become too centralized, and as a result, the power that was originally placed in the hands of the people are now placed in the hands of those "in office."
I don't think anybody feels the brunt of that centralized power more than those whose beliefs are extreme and unpopular, such as the racists and conspiracy theorists... the racists have already become criminals by nature of their speech, and the conspiracy theorists, true to form, expect to be next.
Does that make their views correct? Probably not. Does this open the door to threaten other speech? Very likely. Is there a central conspiracy? I'd laugh at the idea that a massive group of people could coordinate that well AND remain hidden from the "general population."
Perhaps we should stop focusing on who agrees with the message, and pay closer attention to the message itself?
