In my opinion, the loophole is the laziness and willful ignorance of the American people.

BWAHAHAHA
He claimed that USMC embassy and consulate guards were military bases.
He was the leader of the incel brigade. I saw them en masse in 2012 GOP delegate elections

Ron Paul always has been and will be one of my political idols. He’s one of the few moral and philosophically consistent politicians. Time will prove him right.

Patrick Henry was 1,000% correct. I wish we had his version of the Constitution.

This would be true of anyone that that has a shred of principle when it comes to politics and it is 100% where the media puts its thumb on the scale as an agent of the Uniparty.
Bernie Sanders had a stump speech "Millionaires and Billionaires control the government, they need to be taxed, free everything" and he pivoted every question, even softballs, back to it and was never called on the carpet.
"Bernie what do you think about War in Afghanistan?"
"The millionaires and billionaires won't even let us have free healthcare."
"Bernie what do you think about police brutality?"
"In Europe they pay you to masturbate. In America, the millionaires and billionaires won't even let us have free college."
When you look at Ron Paul where the media and Uniparty were out for blood, his questions were insanely antagonistic and he was never allowed to deflect.
"Mr Paul, you say American military presence abroad is immoral and dangerous, why do you hate the troops AND also what if Iran nuked Ohio, should we respond then or would that be immoral AND why are you in favor of police brutality?"
"Mr Paul you want to legalize drugs, well what about pedophilia?

I wanted Ron Paul for President over RINO fake Mit Romney back in 2012.
But the state run media brainwashed the sheeple into believing he was "unelectable"....that's "just crazy ole uncle Ron"
State run media, as in the Republican Party?
The LAGOP and Louisiana Tea Party folks (or the ones who eventually hijacked the tea party "movement) HATED Ron Paul. Seriously. They labeled many of his followers as cultists and simple-minded.
Many of those same folks today within the LAGOP and former LA Tea Party worship the ground Donald Trump walks on just like they accused and laughed at Ron Paul supporters for doing.

It is always someone else's fault. The United States founders said themselves that it would only work with a people who were morally similar. Today we have half the country who believes in God, and believes in a higher moral authority than themselves, and who believes in individual responsibility like the founders. The other half believes in moral relativism and that anything goes as long as it makes you feel good, and also the government is there to solve all their problems.
Is that the constitution's fault? No. These two groups cannot coexist because they are fundamentally apposed to each other at every level.

well done.
he stunk in the debates though.

Sorry, but I just couldn’t get completely on board with Ron during his runs for president.

He specifically mentioned our embassy in Baghdad, which is almost the size of Vatican City and cost $750 million to build. But go ahead and keep supporting the empire. You and your family can die happy knowing that Pelosi, Feinstein, the Bush family and the Cheney family made another billion off your blood.

remember when this board cucked for Romney back then?
I wonder how a vote on the board would go with:
'Who do you like better, Romney or John McCain?'
I prefer McCain by a lot. Because he's dead.

I used to agree with Ron Paul 85 to 90 percent of the time, but thought he was too kooky on the remaining 10 to 15 percent.
While I still think he's kooky, either I'm getting more kooky as I get older or he was less kooky than I believed at the time.

I never thought Paul was a kook, but I was more focused on electability in those days. Shows what I knew.

It failed because no GOVERNMENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD has ever limited its own power. It was doomed to failure. IT CANNOT WORK. It is an impossibility. It is merely a matter of when it is to fail. If Patrick Henry foresaw exactly what would happen with it 250 years ago, you can’t claim it wasn’t foreseen. It is a simple matter that some of the Founders wanted an empire and were willing to run the risks and face the consequences and they got their way. They got their way because they got tricky enough with drafting a document so as to fool and convince those who were skeptical that it would be able to hold the power of unlimited government at bay while delivering the benefits of limited government. They knew it would t work then. But they simply valued government over liberty.

I’m gonna guess the 10-15% has to do with Iran or something.
Conservatives talk about conserving, but don’t seem to like his idea of drastically reducing the size of federal government as well as the worldwide military presence. Sure there would be consequences mostly for the former, but pray for rain and there’s always gonna be mud.

Dude, he specifically mentioned all those military bases around the globe which happen to embassies and consulates with USMC personnel who serve as guards.
