This is one of the few times you’ll find me agreeing with the NAACP, but this man is unquestionably right. You can find plenty of politically-incorrect or so-called “racist” opinions on the Right, but not from Ron Paul. Such issues aren’t even on his radar screen and for those truly familiar with Paul, it’s absurd to suggest otherwise. From the Lewrockwell.com blog:

NAACP President Defends Ron Paul Against “Recent Smear Attempts”
The Austin, Texas NAACP president, Nelson Linder, who has known Ron Paul for 20 ears “unequivocally dismissed charges that the Congressman was a racist in light of recent smear attempts, and said the reason for him being attacked was that he was a threat to the establishment.”
“Dr. Paul has . . . praised Martin Luther King as his hero on many occasions spanning back 20 years,” the NAACP president said.

Have to expect these crude smear attempts against Paul, the elite are scared to death, did you expect them to just roll over? Of course they will say or do ANYTHING to stop his wildly growing support base. As they say, you know you’re over the target when you start getting the flak.
It is the corrupt police state and the War on Drugs that gives us gang crime, corrupt police, judges, prosecutors, prisons, and a prison nation.
Ron Paul wants to end this tragedy and free non-violent offenders, the majority who are African-American.
How can someone who wants to give freedom and liberty to the smallest minority, that being the individual, be a neo-Nazi?
Dr. Ron Paul wants to place checks and balances on governmental power and have the power of the government limited because of the rights of the individual. Ron Paul recognizes that God-given rights supercede the power of the state, but the state continues to recognizes no limit to the power it continually awards to itself.
As the state becomes the arbitor of its own power and decides how much freedom it will allow the people, as opposed to the people deciding how much power it will allow the government to possess, state rule become more absolute as all branches of the government continue to align against the people.
The only check on the absolutism of the state is the Consitution. However, since the Constitution does not enforcement itself, the nation needs a leader that is willing to enforce it and instruct the people on freedom and liberty. Ron Paul is such a leader and hence feared by the parasitic classes who steal the peoples’ wealth and children.
Ron Paul did a great job defending himself against the liberal media’s obvious agenda. I am a black immigrant and will be voting for him even if I have to write his name in, in the general election to ensure that my vote is not wasted.
Hi South Carolina,
Please watch the linked video of David Walker (the governments top accountant for the last 4 presidents). This is the real issue in this campaign.

Sorry that link will only work if you type it on your browser…it is worth it.
This election is a rare opportunity to reverse this deeply disturbing trend, this death march to collectivist oppression. One man in the field of pesidential candidates wants you to be treated as an individual, not a member of a special intrest group.
