Najzanimljiviji kandidat za Americkog predsednika je Dr. Ron Paul konzervativni republikanski kongresmen iz Teksasa. Vazi kao zagovornik vladavine bazirane na (originalnim) ustavnim principima na kojim je formirana Americka republika i primat individualnih prava u odnosu na tzv. "prava drzave (citaj birokratije)".



Nekoliko "kontroverznih" politickih stavova koje zagovara:

1. Ukidanje federalne takse i vecina federalnih tela
2. Povlacenje americke vojske iz svih baza sirom sveta
3. Napustanje Nato pakta i UN
4. Vracanje Americkog dolara na zlatni standard

Brief Overview of Congressman Paul’s Record: He has never voted to raise taxes. He has never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership. He has never voted to raise congressional pay. He has never taken a government-paid junket. He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch. He voted against the Patriot Act. He voted against regulating the Internet. He voted against the Iraq war. He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year. Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

Too often we give foreign aid and intervene on behalf of governments that are despised. Then, we become despised. Too often we have supported those who turn on us, like the Kosovars who aid Islamic terrorists, or the Afghan jihadists themselves, and their friend Osama bin Laden. We armed and trained them, and now we’re paying the price. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/war-and-foreign-policy

O nadolazecem ratu sa Irakom - February 26, 2002

Citat:

Let it be clearly understood- there is no authority to wage war against Iraq without Congress passing a Declaration of War. HJ RES 65, passed in the aftermath of 9/11, does not even suggest that this authority exists. A UN Resolution authorizing an invasion of Iraq, even if it were to come, cannot replace the legal process for the United States going to war as precisely defined in the Constitution. We must remember that a covert war is no more justifiable, and is even more reprehensible. Only tyrants can take a nation to war without the consent of the people. The planned war against Iraq without a Declaration of War is illegal. It is unwise because of many unforeseen consequences that are likely to result. It is immoral and unjust, because it has nothing to do with US security and because Iraq has not initiated aggression against us. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/articles/65/before-we-bomb-iraq/

Naravno Ron Paul nema teoretske sanse da postane predsednik jer i pored podrske obicnih gradjana (u delovima Amerike gde je poznat) on nikad nece dobiti finansijsku i medijsku podrsku koju dobijaju drugi "status-kvo" kanditati.

Posto je njegova kampanja i pored svega, pocela da privlaci sve vise paznje, lansirana je vest da je on rasist, da je opsednut raznim "zaverema", da podrzava desnicarske milicije i tako redom.

Citat:

On January 8, the day of the New Hampshire primary of the 2008 presidential campaign, The New Republic published a story by Jamie Kirchick quoting from selected newsletters published under Paul's name, mostly from between 1989 and 1994.[121] The story said that the writings showed "an obsession with conspiracies, sympathy for the right-wing militia movement, and deeply held bigotry." Kirchick noted that the newsletter article previously quoted by Charles Morris had also referred to African-American rioters as "barbarians" and suggested that the riots only stopped when it came time for "blacks to pick up their welfare checks". Other issues gave tactical advice to local militia groups and advanced various conspiracy theories.[122][123] The newsletter articles were often written in the first person and included personal greetings supposedly written by Paul himself.[124] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul

Buš stavio veto na zakon o zabrani mučenja zatvorenika

Američki predsednik Džordž Buš saopštio je danas da je stavio veto na predlog zakona koji bi zabranio Centralnoj obaveštajnoj agenciji (CIA) da prilikom ispitivanja zatvorenika upotrebljava metode koje neki opisuju kao mučenje.

Predloženi zakon je izrađen po uzoru na zakon koji jasno određuje kojim metodama američka vojska može da ispituje zatvorenike, a koji eksplicitno zabranjuje primenu sile i druge nasilne metode, kao što je simuliranje davljenja.

Zakon bi, ipak, mogao da bude usvojen jer predsendički veto može da se zaobiđe ako bi se obezbedila dvotrećinska podrška dokumentu i u Kongresu i u Senatu, što je malo verovatno, ocenjuju analitičari.
Buš se veto obrazložio time da bi ovaj zakon prosto vezao ruke agecniji CIA koja je primenom "specijalnih" metoda ispitivanja uspela da dođe do važnih informacija zahvaljujući kojima je osujećeno više terorističkih napada i spašeni mnogi životi.
Američki predsednik je dodao da se ti metodi primenjuju samo na najokorelije i najnasilnije teroriste na svetu.
Primenjeni su, između ostalog, prilikom ispitivanja Halida Šeika Mohameda za koga se sumnja da je osmislio napade u SAD, 11. septembra 2001. To je bilo 2003. godine i posle toga više nisu korišćeni ti metodi, rečeno je u Bušovoj administraciji.

malo offtopic, ali slicno donekle tvojoj prici NYC...

tako je jedna moja susjeda pustila u stan na kavu neke jehovine svjedoke i da malo proprica sa njima, da vidi sta je to... I oni tako dosli jednom, drugi put i poceli svracat nekoliko dana zaredom i napokon dok su bili oni unutrra dolazi muz doma....
I kad su se oni predstavili, oni im lipo i uljudno kaze da napuste stan, ali ne, oni da zele razgovarat i da nece ic...
Onda ih on malo manje kulturno zamoli da izadju, ali opet ne, oni nece, jer njih njihova sestra treba i on ih u tome nece sprijecit...
A lik onda vec popizdio i da ce sad prvo njima yebat mater, a poslije i njihovoj sestri...
