Ron Paul vs. Romney: A Quick Match Up

By Zach Foster
 
Which is the better, more conservative, more consistent, and more Constitutional candidate in this Republican race?
 
-RON PAUL served his country.  Romney did not.
-RON PAUL understands the Constitution. Romney: "Ask our Constitutionalist over here" (pointing to Ron Paul)
-RON PAUL predicted the recession and opposed TARP.  Romney supported TARP bailouts.
-RON PAUL as a doctor delivered 4000 babies and was always pro-life. Romney supported Roe v. Wade for YEARS before deciding that opposing it was more popular among Republicans.
-RON PAUL gets the majority of contributions from working moms and dads and ACTIVE MILITARY members. Romney gets the majority of his contributions from WALL STREET.
-RON PAUL believed Netanyahu when he told Congress that mighty Israel doesn't need the U.S.  Romney doesn't think Israel can fight their battles without the U.S., even though Israel has been winning wars since before the U.S. turned them into a client state.
-RON PAUL is for a completely free market and no government intervention. Romney is in favor of federal subsidies (hmm, wasn't Solyndra federally subsidized?)
-RON PAUL will NOT provide incentives for illegal immigration.  For years, Romney was in favor of path-to-citizenship programs for illegal immigrants already in the U.S. before figuring out Republicans don’t like that…
-As a doctor, RON PAUL rejected MediCare payments and simply treated the poor for free, as a voluntary act of kindness. Romney favors individual mandates.
-RON PAUL voted against ObamaCare.  Romney designed it.
-RON PAUL has preached the SAME message of sound money, Constitutional government, and freedom for DECADES.  Some of Romney's many flip flops are documented on video at WhichMitt.com, and for a full day's reading, one need only Google search "Romney flip flops."
-RON PAUL’s views on national defense were praised by Ronald Reagan.  Romney’s were not.
-RON PAUL is an honest man, a consistent idea man, and a true Constitutional conservative.  Romney is a flip flopping big government phony conservative whose many many flip flops show that he’ll say whatever it takes to get elected (we call this lying)
 
RON PAUL 2012!

Ron Paul Campaign Releases New Pro-life Ad Featuring Some of His Former Patients

Women patients attest to Dr. Paul’s character, professionalism and commitment to life
 
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – The Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign unveiled its new prolife ad “Always on the Right Path” featuring four former patients of Dr. Paul’s medical practice in Brazoria County, Texas.
 
Dr. Paul, an Air Force flight surgeon and 12-term Congressman from Texas, is by trade an accomplished OB-GYN who personally delivered more than 4,000 babies.
 
The 60-second online ad will be shared via email and on websites with conservative, prolife, and values voter audiences beginning today.  It begins with a narrator describing Dr. Paul as a prolific doctor, a man of faith, and a man committed to protecting life.  However, the moving testimonials of his patients are what the ad features most prominently – and most effectively.
 
“Some people need to have a good word said about them.  Ron is the sort of person that his life is his good word,” former patient Laura Mays offers in the ad.  “Ron did not let Washington change him,” Ms. Mays later adds.
 
“He not only protects unborn life, but he also walks through journeys with women and he has for years,” Kara Gore proclaims in the ad.
 
“It’s not hard for someone who is a Christian and who truly believes to stay on the right path, and I think that’s what kind of person Ron Paul is,” Diane Wilson declares in the ad.
 
“This ad is unequaled in its authenticity, and in its capacity to convey the message that not only is Ron Paul the Champion of the Constitution, he is also a champion of life with particular emphasis on the unborn,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton.  “This is a clear case of credible subject matter serving as its own convincing message.”

Ron Paul’s Plan Preserves Seniors’ Benefits, Mitt Romney’s Cuts Medicare

LAKE JACKSON, Texas – See below for statement from campaign of 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul.
 
From National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton:
 
“Ron Paul’s ‘Restore America Plan’, which some have called the boldest plan to reduce the federal deficit, proposes $1 trillion in federal spending in the first year, and it balances the federal budget in year three of a Paul Presidency.
 
“The plan cuts spending by ending the costly unconstitutional foreign wars, and cuts foreign welfare, corporate welfare, and overgrown federal bureaucracy.
 
“These cuts are made so that those who are dependent on domestic spending programs such as Medicare aren’t endangered through a sudden change in benefits.
 
“Mitt Romney’s economic plan makes only nominal cuts yet it manages to cut spending from Medicare benefits, the same benefits on which many elderly Americans have come to rely.
 
“That’s a shame because not only are the cuts disingenuous but the protections seniors are counting on are absent from a proposal that Mitt Romney regards as ‘bold’ and fair.
“Ron Paul’s ambitious plan also cuts taxes, authorizes a comprehensive audit of the Federal Reserve, and reins in dangerous government intervention by curtailing runaway spending and regulatory overreaches.
 
“Today’s government-imposed economic weakness demands action.  Ron Paul is the only candidate with the experience and plan to get Americans back to work and create lasting prosperity.”
