Even if you agree with the "It's not our business if the rogue terrorist state has nukes" surely you recognize that espousing that view is political suicide right?
Okay. Here's what I believe, and it is very simple:
1. Ron Paul is not going to win the primary. God himself, had He descended on Earth and endorsed Ron Paul, could not make him win the primary.
2. I do not believe in isolationism. However, it is very very low on my list of concerns. Which segues into:
3. I believe the system of government that exists today in the Western world is unjust and morally wrong. It is a moral superior to previous systems of government or to the ones that exist now in, say, China or Iran. But it is still morally wrong. I do not mean to say that society has degraded morally or that we are about to collapse, or anything like that. I believe that the worst thing that could happen to us, in the long-term, is that this system continues permanently.
4. As a consequence of 3 and 2: In a hypothetical scenario, if anybody votes for a candidate that is 'strong' on Iran but is otherwise a RINO and a supporter of what we have, on the strength of that issue alone, over the a pro-freedom candidate who is 'weak' on Iran? Then this person deserves everything he gets.
In my view that person is worse than a socialist votes against the pro-freedom candidate on that basis.
Socialists at least genuinely don't know better. The person who chooses (hypothethically) Romney or some other mainstream candidate over Ron Paul based on the fictional Islamic threat, despite knowing fully Ron Paul (or a hypothetical candidate like him) supports freedom more than Romney does - he should by right know better.
