American Muslims, have you heard of Ron Paul?

Guys;

I can understand how Paul's advocacy of isolationism would seem attractive to the powerless, but if you think that if the world superpower simply declined to participate in international affairs the planet would be swept by gigantic fields of flowers you are painfully naive. What do you think about Russia or China as the world's superpower?

How long do you think the Gulf States would last against Iran?

And the next tsunami? Don't come whining to the US for help.

Their foreign policy is likely to remain unchanged. The doctrine of expanding American influence under the banner of exporting freedom and democracy and building a global hegemony is a key factor in US foreign policy :D

That gets to the question of who "we"(the U.S.) are and what we stand for. If we don't feel personal freedom and democratic government is worth promoting what does that say about us? One can argue about how the U.S. goes about promoting it, but I see nothing wrong with making that a vital element to U.S. foreign policy.

Not if Ron Paul can help it. He doesn't feel it's the responsibility of the US to get involved in the rest of the world. Thats why he wants to close foreign bases, retreat from Iraq asap, leave the UN and abolish all forms of foreign aid.

Not with Ron Paul. His foreign policy is strickly NO INTERVENTION so that we can focus on getting our economy back on it's feet. Instead of spending 2 trillion on the War in Iraq we can use that money to try and bail out Social Security. He's running as a Republican but he's really a Constitutionalist. He voted against the war. The only other politician to do that was Dennis Kucinich and he's not getting alot of support either. Dr. Paul has my vote and alot of other people I know--sadly, he won't win the nomination but he has woke up alot of Americans to how far away from the Constitution we really are.

You are completely right. He is not an isolationist really. He said he wants to diplomatically be in touch with every country and would like to trade with all of em. It's just that when it comes to WAR, he won't act on his own like Bush. He will either wait for the Congress to approve it or UN Security Council to approve it. So all these people out there who say that under RON PAUL a genocide can take place and he won't act are really dumb.
