What concerns me about Ron Paul.
Ron Paul is not the man people pretend he is. I've had it with all the worship of a man who has a long trail of issues people tend to brush off.

Addicting Info: Ron Paul Supporters Claim He Opposes The NDAA, So Why Didn’t He Vote On It?
http://www.addictinginfo.org/2012/01/06/ron-paul-supporters-claim-he-opposes-the-ndaa-so-why-didnt-he-vote-on-it/
There is a whole lot of anger regarding the National Defense Authorization Act that President Obama signed into law last week. Civil libertarians in particular have been livid over the content of the law which they think allows the indefinite detention of Americans, even though the indefinite detention provision was changed, before President Obama signed the bill into law.
Not too long after the President signed the bill, rabid Ron Paul supporters vigorously claimed that Paul opposed the bill. There’s just one problem with that. If he indeed opposed it so much, why didn’t he attend a House session to cast his vote against it?
Ron Paul took an oath to execute his duties as a member of the House of Representatives, yet he failed to show up to vote against the NDAA, a bill he supposedly opposes. He didn’t bother to take a few hours out of his day to vote against something he considers dangerous to American rights and freedom. Instead, he decided to ignore his congressional responsibilities in order to remain on the campaign trail. You’d think a self-proclaimed libertarian would do his job when bills as important as the NDAA come up.
The fact is, a sitting Congressman cannot say they oppose a piece of legislation and not vote against it when it comes up for a vote. It’s just irresponsible, which is contrary to Paul’s constant calls for Americans to be responsible. Looks like he doesn’t practice what he preaches, which begs the question: Why do people still support Ron Paul?
See who voted for the bill, who voted against it, and who else besides Ron Paul didn’t vote on it at all; http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2011/roll932.xml

Ron Paul Supporter: “Assassinate N-Word Obama And Monkey Children” -This is th kind of thing that Ron Paul breeds. It’s not freedom, or unity, it’s discrimination and hate between people. This makes me ill.
This is not the first time a Ron Paul fan has threatened to kill President Obama. I really am concerned about this kind of mentality and these views being thrown around with out a single worry. I thought it was illegal to say you are going to kill the President? Here it is online! So if Obama’s administration is as evil as some people claim, then why has NO ONE taken action against this pig who said these things? Not just about him but him family? And to make it a racial issue? I just feel sick.
News One:
LOS ANGELES-Jules Manson, a former candidate for city council in Carson, California and enthusiastic Ron Paul supporter wrote “Assassinate the f#@#en n-word and his monkey children” in a Facebook post.
Manson is a Libertarian and a big Ron Paul supporter who would regularly post on Ron Paul’s website and Facebook page. It seems that there has been an effort to take away Manson’s online presence as his Facebook page and posts on Ron Paul’s website have been removed but several screen grabs and a google cache reveal his postings. On this Facebook Post on Ron Paul’s page, Manson says “I may be an atheist but Ron Paul is my God.” Here is a screen grab of Manson’s call to assassinate Obama and his children.
On the site RedpillLibraries, Manson has a picture of Obama dressed like Hitler and rants against the Federal Reserve, a common enemy of Ron Paul. On his LinkedIn Page, Manson list himself as a Mechanical Designer/Engineer and a member of the Libertarian Party. While most of Manson’s Facebook posts have been removed, here is one where he rants once again against the Federal Reserve, a common target of Ron Paul’s.
Manson is not the first Ron Paul supporter tied to racism. Paul famously took a picture with, Don Black, a former KKK grand Wizard and founder of the white supremacist site, Stormfront, who also raises money for Paul on his site, which Paul has refused to give back Paul has also been taking heat for his racist newsletters, written in the 80s and 90s which he has denied writing but given no reasonable explanation for.
Ron Paul is also a supporter of the John Birch Society, a organization that has produced several of the intellectual leaders of the white supremacist movement.

The War Is Over In Iraq
Guess who ended it? OBAMA, not Ron Paul.
Oh, now look at how Paulbots are complaining about the very thing their hero vowed to do if elected president. Hypocrisy at it’s worse.
