Here is What We Know about Ron Paul:
Ronald Ernest “Ron” Paul (born 20 August, 1935) is a paleolibertarian 10th-term Congressman, a former Air Force Flight Surgeon, a medical doctor (M.D.) and a 2008 presidential candidate from the U.S. state of Texas. As a Republican, he has represented Texas's 14th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives since 1997, and had previously served as the representative from Texas's 22nd district in 1976 and from 1979 to 1985.
Dr. Paul has delivered more than 4,000 babies. He and Carol, who reside in Lake Jackson, Texas, are the proud parents of five children and have seventeen grandchildren. Ron Paul is a Baptist.
In Congress Ron Paul has proposed doing away with personal income taxes, federal antitrust laws and the minimum wage. He advocated pulling the United States out of the United Nations, NATO and the International Monetary Fund. Republicans ignore him; most of his bills fail to attract a single co-sponsor.
However in 2009 he has attracted over 300 votes for his bipartisan proposal to subject the Federal Reserve to unprecedented scrutiny by allowing the Government Accountability Office to audit all central bank operations, including its decisions on interest rates, lending to individual banks and transactions with foreign central banks. He has a separate bill to abolish the Fed altogether. (He is the lone sponsor.)
Paul is a pro-life states' rights libertarian, also known as a paleolibertarian. Paleolibertarians advocate a limited role of government, low taxes, free markets, strict construction of the U.S. Constitution, and a return to monetary policies based on commodity-backed currency. He has earned the nickname "Dr. No" for voting against any bill he believes violates the Constitution.
Ron Paul is noted for his authorship of the We the People Act, an act which removed the ability of the US Supreme Court to hear cases involving discrimination based on sexual orientation or religion. He is also noted for submitting several bills banning abortion, and somewhat controversially was the only person to oppose the Darfur Divestment Act of 2007, a bill which disallowed the US government, corporations, and individuals from sending money to or doing business with the janjaweed rebel group of the Sudan.
Ron Paul's desire to secure U.S. borders remains a key topic in his 2008 presidential campaign. He opposes the North American Union proposition and its proposed integration of Mexico, the United States of America, and Canada. Paul voted "yes" on the Secure Fence Act of 2006, which authorizes the construction of an additional 700 miles of double-layered fencing between the U.S and Mexico. Paul opposes illegal immigration as well as amnesty for illegal immigrants.
That's about Everything that is Actually GOOD about Ron Paul. Now I Must Show You the BAD SIDE of Ron Paul that His Loyal Supporters Don't want You to Know about:

Trutheriness and Ron Paul • May 19, 2007 11:08 AM

Ron Paul is also ABSOLUTELY Racist and Anti-Semitic! Read this Blog and Decide for Yourself!
http://www.sundriesshack.com/2008/01/09/ron-pauls-racist-newsletter-and-the-libertarians-that-excuse-it/
The neo-Nazi organization Stormfront also provided widgets on its internet site to enable people to electronically donate cash to Paul's campaign. Stormfront's founder, former Ku Klux Klan member Don Black, also gave financial support to Paul's campaign.
Ron Paul wants to "reinstate the Constitution and restore the Republic." He rejects a welfare state or nanny state role for the federal government, and advocates a strong non-interventionist foreign policy.
He voted against the Iraq War in 2002 and has offered alternatives such as granting the President authority to grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and arming pilots. He is the only Republican presidential candidate to have voted against the Iraq War.
On March 5, 2008, Ron Paul was the only member of the house to vote against a bill "Condemning the ongoing Palestinian rocket attacks on Israeli civilians, and for other purposes"
Ron Paul seemed to have dropped slightly in the polls that followed the second Republican debate in Columbia, South Carolina, to 25 percent. This was probably as a result of his suggestion that weekly bombing of Iraq following Operation Desert Fox in December 1998 may have contributed sufficiently to Arab anger at the United States as to make the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks inevitable. Paul was excoriated by Rudy Giuliani, who said that this was the most bizarre explanation for the attacks he had ever heard. Other Republican commentators sought to explain Paul's continued strength in post-debate polls as the result of multiple votes by his supporters or voting by non-Republicans. In response to Rudy Giuliani, the next day at the National Press Club, Ron Paul offered Rudy a book list to read regarding the issue of American foreign policy. These books are Imperial Hubris by Michael Scheuer, Dying to Win by Robert Pape, Blowback by Chalmers Johnson, and The 9-11 Commission Report by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks.
Ron Paul makes Public Statements like these that are Anit-War that Conservatives Don't Agree with or believe:
http://www.votesmart.org/speech_detail.php?sc_id=637609&keyword=&phrase=&contain
America has gone on to WIN the War in IRAQ and this is no longer an issue to the American people.
The IRAQ War did Not Bankrupt America's Economy. Domestic Discretionary Spending is what is Destroying America's Economy.
Here's another Public Statements like these that are Anit-War that Conservatives Don't Agree with or believe:
Perpetual war is expensive.
http://www.votesmart.org/speech_detail.php?sc_id=633197&keyword=&phrase=&contain
Again, America has gone on to WIN the War in IRAQ and this is no longer an issue to the American people.
Many Conservatives DO NOT AGREE With Ron Paul on the Stated Issues Below:
Ron Paul Wants to Greatly Decrease Spending on Military Budgets exept for Pay for Active Duty and Armed Forces personnel training which He Would Support Slightly Increasing Spending in those two areas.
Ron Paul thinks America SHOULD have diplomatic relations with the government of Cuba.
Ron Paul says "No foreign aid is authorized in the Constitution."
Ron Paul Thinks The US should use military force only when the US border or territories are attacked or American citizens are in danger.
Ron Paul Thinks "The War on Drugs has failed. The Fed. gov should turn the responsibility over to the states."
Ron Paul Believes More in a Police State like the America nder Bill Clinton BEFORE 9/11. Ron Paul says about Terrorism "State law enforcement agencies should be more independent. Fed should have less jurisdiction."
Ron Paul Does NOT Support United States Military Action in Afghanistan.

Mark Levin's 5 million $ challenge to Ron Paul
This is a Challenge that Mark Levin KNOWS with NO DOUBTS that He’ll Never have to Pay because Ron Paul is Unbalanced and Unreliable.

Ron Paul is not just anti-war, but he has adopted some of the more obnoxious and inflammatory rhetoric from the Left about the war that is extremely grating. Hell, according to Paul, Iraq is a war for oil and empire, engineered by neocons, and in Paul’s book, we deserved to be attacked on 9/11. That is not Conservative at all, and quite frankly disgusting.
In this Youtube Video Interview, Ron Paul can't Help but continue his message of Blame America for all of the problems in the middle east. Just watch how many Times Ron Paul says it's America's Falt int his Interview. This is Important because it's SO WRONG!

Ron Paul voted against the Rosa Parks medal and then lied to the public and said it was tax payer funded. Paul cosponsored the Boy Scouts Commemorative Coin Act, that would give $3,500,000 of the proceeds to a homophobic organization. Hypocrisy? To add to the BSCCA, Paul also attempted to introduce legislation to give every cold war veteran a gold medal. The cost of this? $240,000,000. And unlike the Rosa Parks medal, these medals actually would have been tax payer funded.

Paul held a fundraiser for Bill Johnson, another one of Paul's White Supremacist friends; who he endorsed for the Los Angeles County Court. It turns out Johnson wanted to have all non whites deported from the US. "Coincidentally," Ron Paul wants to end birthright citizenship, therefore spitting on the Constitution he claims to admire. We all know the easiest way they scan immigrants! It's usually based on skin pigmentation.

OK I Think I've Shown Enough Proof about just HOW and WHY Conservatives Won't Support or Vote for Ron Paul for President. Not Now! NOT EVER!!
Bottom Line on Ron Paul:
Some Conservatives say they Agree with Him about 90% of the time and actually Like the Guy as a Person. I’m NOT One of those Conservatives. I Find Myself in Agreement with Ron Paul to be somewhere around 70% on Ron Paul’s Best Day.
Ron Paul is Who he hangs out with. Ron Paul is Fine with Associating Himself with Racists, Extremist and Anti-Semites. Even IF He’s NOT Any of those things Personally. The Rotten Apples DO Spoil Him because they’re Funding Him and Propping Him up as the Savior of America. What America? What kind of America Would that look like? IF the Saying is True about “You are Who You Hang out with” than Ron Paul Will Never be able to crawl out or Away from the Dark Shadow of Followers Who Support Him. Never. They’re Fanatics and Zealots of the Worst kind. He Refuses to distance himself from these people. That’s Morally and Ethnically Wrong in My Humble Opinion.
Ron Paul doesn’t have to accept Contributions or Endorsements from ANYONE or ANY GROUP that He’s Uncomfortable with or Disagrees with.
Has Ron Paul Openly and Publically Denounced ANY of the People or Organizations that I have Mentioned above? If so, When? Where did he do this? I’d Argue He hasn’t and He Won’t. Those are HIS PEOPLE. America Rejects Ron Paul’s People and Him.
One Final Point about Accepting/Rejecting Ron Paul as a President.
What may be Great and Passes as Acceptable as a Congressman/Senator or even Governor of a State is NOT the SAME Bar or Standard We Should use to Decide IF they are Solid Quality Presidential Candidates or NOT.
What May Work for Any State or District a Candidate May be representing is Definitely NOT the same as Representing ALL AMERICANS as President.
We Need to and MUST have Much Higher Standards that We Hold Presidential Candidates due to the Fact that Whoever Finally Wins the Nomination Will be Widely Considered the Most Powerful/Influential Person in the Modern Free World and the Added Responsibility of Commanding the World’s Most Powerful Military as Commander in Chief. This is NOT to be taken lightly!
It Requires a Well Rounded Candidate that has More Qualifications than just being a Good/Decent Congressman/Senator or Governor.
Executive Experience does count and makes a difference but it’s NOT Everything.
The Same can be said of Ideology/Philosophy.
My Presidential Candidate MUST be as Conservative as Possible meaning He/She MUST have Solid Conservative Principles, Values and Morals to Win My Support, Endorsement and Vote.
Ron Paul is Terribly lacking in some Key Areas that Conservatives Demand.
Without the Conservative Base behind Ron Paul, He can’t Win the Nomination or Against whatever Left Wing Radical Liberal Democrat that the Democrats all line up behind.
John McCain has taught America this Great Modern Day Lesson of Needing the Conservative Base of the Republican Party to WIN the Presidential General Election. And to do that, HE MUST be More Conservative which at this stage of His Life and Professional Career, He is Unwilling to do.
