Ron Paul To Keep White Supremacist Donation

[Douger]

Could one of the Paul-Browne-Libertarian haters please give me the direct quote and page number from Browne's book where he advocates letting "relatives starve"?

Libertarians don't advocate letting people starve. What they prefer is to place it in the hands of the private sector rather than the government, which tends to muck things up. They don't claim such a solution as a panacea, only a better solution than the current one.

Sorry, I'm not really against Paul, I was just making fun. I know where he stands and it makes sense to me.

The Civil Rights Act was an attempt to legislate morality. It forced many businesses into situations they didn't want to be in for compliance. For example, I have a friend who runs a larger family business, but had to hire outside of his family to be compliant. It is sad, because many in his family could use the jobs.

Some parts of the CRA are truely about rights. No one argues with that. Other parts are about force; forcing private entities to do things. This is what people take objection to. Title I and III, no one batted and eyelash at them. Title VII has made many a lawyers rich, broken many businesses, and done little for race relations.

Ayn Rand is the original Libertarian, so they tell us. In her novel The Fountainhead, her Libertarian hero is Howard Roark. Roark is so much against charity that he will not take one dollar from another person even when he is starving for lack of work.

That is Ayn Rand's ideal: No charity.

It sounds like you have the Civil Rights Act of 1964 mixed up with Affirmative Action, which didn't get started until the early 1970's.

YES, somebody elses money WOULD be refunded! The monies were received at DIFFERENT times.

And I've noted that you completely failed to respond to the well-documented fact that liberal Democrats have made tens of millions of dollars in campaign donations (as well as giving him their votes election after election) to "former" Ku Klux Klansman Robert Byrd.

I firmly believe that people can change. A Byrd quote from Wiki:

"I know now I was wrong. Intolerance had no place in America. I apologized a thousand times ... and I don't mind apologizing over and over again. I can't erase what happened."

"Why do the racist crazies want Ron Paul to win?"

Presumably they agree with his views on immigration. They probably also agree with his conservative/libertarian economic views.
Ron Paul has also been accused of being an isolationist, although he prefers "non-interventionist."

I'd assume too, that a very limited government would be favorable to those people, being that any even semi-moral government would be against what they promote.
Though I don't agree with Ron Paul, I definitely don't think that he wants limited government for reasons like that, but the crazies might see an opening there, whether real or not.

Ron Paul is a Republican Representative from Texas who is running for President, in case anyone doesn't recognize the name.

A man who runs the Stormfront White Nationalist Community website, and uses the motto "White Pride World Wide," has donated $500 to Ron Paul's campaign. Paul is going to keep the donation, he has resisted the suggestion that he should return it.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul has received a $500 campaign donation from a white supremacist, and the Texas congressman doesn't plan to return it, an aide said Wednesday.

I can understand why people were alarmed by discovering this donation, but I think that Paul answered their concerns eloquently. I don't think that it would only be liberals trying to find dirt who'd be interested in this issue, but also Libertarians who aren't racist who have supported Ron Paul. It's good that he was able to clarify his position.

No, the Civil Rights Act. I was taking a law class at the time for an advanced degree and we studied it in depth at that time.

One can be found to be in violation of this law if you discriminate in your hiring practice, even if not on purpose. This includes things such as hiring your family members, who in many cases bear the same race/religion as you.

There is a provision exempting small businesses- ie. family business- but that size is too small for his case.

Here is what Ron said about it.

You are too innocent not to recognize it's another dirty trick of election. Feds used to plant negative contribution to candidate so they have an issue to attack these candidates.

The similar way they do to Clinton by Norman Hsu's contribution.

It seems GOP is skilled in those dirty tricks. You also saw Swift Boat Team attack on Kerry in 2004's election.

Ron Paul is a disfavor of GOP. So once again, GOP's tool - FBI plays trick to tarnish the most hopeful candidate. The two most fearsome rival for GOP are: Ron Paul (Repblican) and Hillary (Demo). So the attack concentrate on them.

Who control those organization: Communist Party; supermacist; peace movement; even ACLU and other groups? FBI.

"I have to bare my heart and soul to the good folks of the movement, although this is hard for me to say, I must tell the truth. I Rick Spring have been working for the FED's for some time now and I am sorry," Spring wrote in an email today.
