Sorry...

...Just watching the Florida Republican debate now, DVR yall.... This year I decided to go all in for Ron Paul, even though I have some disagreements with a few of his policies, but it's the fewest disagreements I've had with a candidate ever...But Ron Paul doesn't do a great job actually describing foreign policy, and in this debate it got my gaul more than others; but I don't know why.

....Maybe it's because he doesn't do so well with the argument that bringing people the benefits of capitalism to people WILL bring them freedom...

...Wait, that's exactly it...the more we trade with Cuba, the more free they will become; once people see the benefits of capitalism, they are more willing to fight for the rights those benefits afford...

...I think China has shown that the more we sell them the more free they become...total commies when we cut them off from trade, and in the 35 years we've traded with them they have discovered rights they never knew. now their citizens are fighting to defend the goods they have accumulated, and thus their own freedom. Now the Chinese government is talking about paying the people they confiscate land from; totally unbelievable before we started trading with them. If we had been trading with Cuba, they would be a free capitalist country by now...

...This is where Ron Paul lets me down, he doesn't articulate the power of Free Markets in the creation of FREEDOM...
