Ever wonder why the military supports Ron Paul over all the other candidates?
For those who don’t like Ron Paul, do you at least care about the message that the troops are trying to send home?
Here is a link with the numbers broken down:

The military supports Rupaul?
Maybe the Navy does, but i cant imagine the Marines liking him – or her – or it….

Just read an article in a newspaper that said most “grunts” or Army combat soldiers are swinging to Barack Obama because of his stand on going into Pakistan to capture Osama Bin Laden if need be. Who knows? The military is just as diverse when it comes to politics as the rest of America. Since my son returned from the Middle East, he says he will support whomever the Democrat nominee is and he prefers Obama.
they know a good man when they see one.
Because people in the military understand his national defense message the best. They understand that we are currently spread too thin. We are currently in 130 countries throughout the world. Ron Paul may cut some military spending but only to re consolidate things. We have more than enough money allocated we just need to spend it better. If we pull out of SOME countries that no longer need us we are actually going to have a stronger more unified Military to defend our country. At the same time many deployed understand first hand the concept of blowback. Years of the United States mingling in foreign affairs are building up hate towards our country. This helps insurgents gather support and ultimatly commit an act like 9/11.
Ron Paul’s comments on this “blowback” subject were spun by media/guliani to the general public. He simply ask that we examine the murder rather than just the victim. By knowing the motive we can help prevent an incident like this to happen again.
The CIA,9/11 commission report, and many other sources including Bin Laden him self all agree with Dr. Paul. Americans must understand that many places in the world do not wish to share our way of governement. Rather this is right or wrong we should not force it upon them “through the barrel of a gun”
Rather you agree with these comments or not realize we cannot afford this anymore. We are in a huge debt & it’s only getting worse. Ron Paul is simply using common sense. We have to balance the budge thus cut spending. We are currently borrowing millions a day from countries like China&Japan. China is essentially holding America hostage at this moment threatening to liquidate all of their holdings in U.S. Treasury. This would devastate the value of the dollar. We got to this point by spending more money than we collect. And there is no end in sight on either side of the party. Except RON PAUL.
