If Ron paul would have ran as a Republican and won the primary

He did run as a republican

RP is a puss and would not have survived the onslaught that Trump is going through.

1. Only one that was tough enough to get union votes and pick up some blue states was Trump. No other republicans would have beat Hillary
2. Voting libertarian will allow a very dangerous democrat to rule these days so vote republican because libertarians can get enough support to win
3. Paul ran as republican

Are you kidding? Ron Paul stood firm in the 2008 and 2012 debates when the morons in the crowd booed him for talking about blowback as it relates to foreign policy interventionism. I watched him tell a group redneck South Carolinians during a 2012 debate that using heroin was an exercise of liberty. I haven't seen someone with more steadfast principles in my lifetime. He wouldn't give two shites about the media onslaught.

Woohoo, debates.... He's a mathematical grandstand politician.

He's a pushover that needs attention to try to stand out but do nothing.

He's fake. He could never go through what Trump is going through now. He's a politician.

Ron Paul would have been assassinated if he came anywhere close to the Republican nomination, much less the White House.

I agree. Not only his foreign policy stance but he would have tried to take down the Fed Reserve.

Ron Paul was the perfect anti-establishment candidate. Unfortunately, you have to have a strong personality and the free media coverage that Trump had to win as an anti-establishment candidate. Ron Paul didn’t get either of those

quote:

He was more despised by the Washington establishment because of his deviation from the most ingrained American orthodoxy: foreign policy interventionism.

---

Even more so than that was his resistance to the Federal Reserve and the entire cartel finance system. He was the most dangerous candidate to the establishment and that is why he was not allowed to gain traction in the primaries.

Sure he could have been president. A lot of domestic policy would have been much improved over what we had. Of course, Osama Bin Laden would have killed 30,000 Americans in a dozen different terrorist attacks, and probably would be Ayatollah of Afghanistan now, his most prized possession being the file cabinet filled with letters of marque from President Paul.

Saddam Hussein would probably be dictator of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, with his own cabinet full of letters of marque, and gas would cost 12.00 a gallon.

All of the murderous thugs associated with the war on terror, who we sent to meet their 72 virgins, would still be beheading people for religious transgressions, whipping women in the street, and torturing people to death.

Assad in Syria would have simply gassed to death any of the men, women, and children who failed to sufficiently support his dictatorship.

Crimea and Georgia certainly wouldn’t have been much of a step for Putin. Chances are, Russian aggression toward other border countries would have been greater. What’s to stop them? More letters of marque?

Ron Paul is one of the few sane men in American politics and this video illustrates it perfectly.
