Would this make you a ron paul democrat?

1) On the war, he/she would pull troops out of 50 countries within 2 years. He would reduce the effort in Iraq and proportionally pull out from the middle east by at least 50% in the first term of office.

2) On debt & taxes, he would absolutely swear to have a fully balanced budget within 2 years, including war costs and of course not raise taxes.

3) On health care, he would encourage health savings accounts and prevent insurance companies from rejecting patients.

4) Spending saved on overseas troop pullout would be used to strengthen national security and prevent border crossings.

5) On illegal immigration, he would deport illegals that have committed crimes and fine the rest. People with US born children would not be deported.

6) Privacy and personal liberties would be like Ron Paul.

7) The candidate would be pro-choice.

8) Social security would be guaranteed to existing users, but new entrants would have the choice to invest privately.

9) Federal Education dept would be dismantled with all proceeds and staff going to the states. Same for dept of energy except for research.

10) EPA would be mostly dismantled except for research and setting guidelines.

11) NASA would be cut back to encourage private space ventures.

Those arnt really ron pauls views, i tried to make them apply to the democratic party as much as i could.

no rod paul for me either...

I'm not a fan of Ron Paul at all. Sorry to those who are:(

Sounds Like McCain to me .

Sounds more like a libertarian than a Dem. I agree with nearly all these policies.

Not sure why you are trying to build him up into a viable candidate. McCain is the guy nominated to be flattened by Obama. Rommey dropped out so he could try again in 8 years. Huckabee's supporters are that minority evangelical right who will never sniff power again. Born again Bush has killed the religious right and the conservatives both.

yet again, 11 reasons i would never vote for this nutcase..

Ron Paul, an OB/GYN, is pro-life and said he's never seen a necessary abortion to save the life of a woman. So nix out #7. He'd never go for it.

I agree with some of his concepts, but, unlike Mr.Paul, I realize that his economic/foreign policies are disastrous, and some of his domestic policies are clearly absurd.
Guess my answer is "no".

I like Ron Paul... best situation would have been for the Con party to put him up, but they didn't so I'll vote Democrat again. Can't give up my personal freedom anymore... Patriot act sucks.
