Why Are Ron Paul's Supporters So Angry?

When Glenn Beck interviewed Congressman Ron Paul a few weeks ago, he said that he had received death threats from people purporting to be Ron Paul supporters. I have heard other journalists make similar accusations against Congressman Paul's supporters. Of course, I have no way of knowing whether any of this is true or not. And neither does anyone else.

Why Are Ron Paul's Supporters So Angry?

Personally I think there's a big movement to discredit Ron Paul as he's perceived to be a threat to the powers-that-be.

And that these violent threats are simply invented. Remember, they also wanted to call him a "nazi" because he accepted a donation from the leader of the pro-white Stormfront.

And they have done their very best to keep him out of TV and the newspapers. + also manipulated popularity polls in Paul's disfavor.

I believe Paul is the only good candidate out there. If I lived in the U.S I'd vote for him. All the others are corrupt crooks in my eyes.

Ron Paul is the only good candidate running for US president. That's why they work so hard to smear him or ignore him.

Yes, I agree!

After looking at their voting records and where they stand on issues, he is by far the best candidate. I've told so many people about him and they were all like: "Who?" The media darlings: Clinton, Obama -- McCain, Romney & Huckabee. I find it hilarious that they make Hilary/Obama a white and black thing as if Obama is the only black candidate running. Many aren't even aware of Alan Keyes. This race is a joke! I'm surprised McCain has the shot that he has thus far? For weeks I've been thinking that its going to be Obama vs. Romney in the end. As of now, It looks like Clinton vs. McCain, ugh! This is worse than Bush vs. Kerry! People are too lazy to research on their own.

I too feel that he is the only repulican candidate worth voting for, tho I am not sure if he has my vote just yet.

Nice to see something we can agree on, Ben-Ariel!!

I'm surprised if Ben-Ariel likes Ron Paul. Ron Paul is not the most Israel-friendly. My position on Israel I've stated before; I'd like to see (that evil regime) wiped off the map.

(the regime/state, not the land/people.)

I think everyone here understends well the fact that there is a smear campaign out to discredit Ron Paul.

I am a supporter of revolutionary change, internal and politcal, so I therefore support the only obvious canidate that has a real plan to exact the kind of change needed.

This parallels gnosis and psuedo-gnostics as well. The way some people want to change but don't, and the way real gnostics realize change is important and bear their cross.

The other canidates get up there and talk about change because that's the catch word of the day, but in the end have absolutely no plan to exact it.
Just as there are groups of "almost" gnositics that intellectualize and vainly theorize over change, but never go about taking up their great work and changing, there remains the majority of the sad, lost population that will never actually change and will always cause the true revolutionaries to suffer all sorts of injustice and hardship.
Suffering.
Such is the path to liberation.

Well put, Apakhana, and spot on about the 'almost' gnostics....
