Hell in a handbasket!
Paul: Yeah i would think so. But, unless you look at their voting records. I mean, they really haven't voted that way. Even Obama has voted to support the war in their spending. And Hillary certainly has. So i mean, their rhetoric is certainly better.
[...] I think the Democrats are playing on some of the sympathies that i get, which is that we should back away from some of the commitments we have over there.
Wolf: If you had to pick one of those three right now, who would it be?
Paul: Meh. Well it would be a tough choice, because i see them all as about the same. But i would think that the one who would most likely keep us from expanding the war is probably Obama. But that doesn't mean that's an endorsement [laughing], because he'd spend the money somewhere else, and his voting record isn't all that great. But you asked me the question and I would say he would be slightly better.
Yep.
Glowing endorsement.
Paul "FAVORS" Barack.

Who said anything about endorsement? When someone says "I would say he would be slightly better", does that not mean he favors him to the other two?

Slightly better and about the same as Hillary and McCain.
That seems quite the step down from the usual pro-Obama posts around here
rejoicing in Obama's greatness. Most of you act like Hillary and McCain are hideous warmongers who will do anything they have to to get power.....and you're absolutely right. But posting something that has the opinion of Obama being about the same as that or only slightly different, really only enforces my already poor opinion of him.

and people still think he is a war monger that is lying his way into the white house
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
nothing will change some peoples mind. so it isnt worth trying.
saying that he's slightly better than the other 2 gets you this excited? the question was posed as which of the 3 mainstreamers he would prefer.

There was never much to go on in the first place. Obama = institution vote.

Slightly better than pure shit is the same thing I've been saying this whole damn time.
and it surely is not an impressive statement, to me. and certainly would not be enough reason for me to vote for someone. 'hey, I'm about the same but only slighty better than crap! Vote for me!'
I'll pass.

whoop whoop!!!!
it seems like paul was pressed to give an answer, not much of an endorsement, nor is kucinich's which he said was for that primary, not overall
he had a voice that was strong and loud and
i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
eager to identify with
someone above the crowd
someone who seemed to feel the same
someone prepared to lead the way
what di you call it?
i call it a flat out endorsement
just because it doesnt fit your views, doesnt mean you should dismiss what happened. he CLEARLY advocated for Barack Obama on the eve of the most important primary
"kucinish says vote for Obama" and you follow with "but thats not an endorsement"
if Obama was so evil as you guys have been trying to paint for months, then why would Kucinich EVER endorse him? why would he state that Obama is a candiate for change?
you guys are too funny
If you read the thread, you will see that no one is claiming that Paul endorsed Obama.

And your sig states why.
You don't have to tell us that. We already know. We've read the newsletters.
http://www.reverbnation.com/brianzilm
No but I did anyway.
Should read the article on these ass pirates. That Ron Paul newsletter had many writers.
Just a few weeks ago, I was part of a huge conspiracy of anti-racist activists - activists who, online and in public, were bent on the destruction of the Ron Paul Campaign. We used our websites and our online influence to spread outright false and misleading information. We began this online influence at least six months prior to the release of the Ron Paul Newsletters. We knew they were going to be released.
I was originally a Ron Paul supporter. I was stunned when I heard from other Anti-Racism advocates that Ron Paul had released such Newsletters. I was never shown actual newsletters, only told that they would soon be released. I trusted in my fellow activists. I had been working with most of them for several years; they had never steered me wrong before. Then right before the primaries, the Newsletters were released. Did you get that?
Right before the primaries the newsletters were released!
I felt used. Obviously the newsletters were old news, and an orchestrated release of information, in which I was but a cog in the wheel of the Establishment - an Establishment bent on the destruction of the man, bent on THEIR destruction!
Do not believe their lies. This man, Dr. Ron Paul, is NOT a racist.
I KNOW racists. I've lived amongst racists. I fight racism DAILY.
If a man is so publicly racist as to release newsletters so vehemently racist in their content, then he is racist in other ways publicly as well.
If anyone can come up with video or acceptable audio proof of Ron Paul making racist statements, like the ones found in those newsletters, I will auction everything I own on Ebay and give the proceeds to the candidate of their choice. That's got to be at least $20,000-$100,000 worth of stuff, depending on how the auction goes; maybe more.
I believe Ron Paul. I believe that even though those newsletters were released in his name, he did not author them. I have looked through that mans entire life. I can say indeed, he is no racist.
"This pile of fecus has less flies therefore it smells better... I think it's the best smelling."
I'm Ron Paul and I "favor" this message...
