Dr. Paul hit it right out of the park.

www.v911truth.org

He basically said that the cover up was inspired by guilt as a result of ineptitude or incompetence, and in effect did not even answer the question about what he would do as president. This guy's not a truther or a real investigator, and is not even CONSIDERING any possibility of government involvement aka MIHOP, or even LIHOP.

Why would people be gushing over this?

Some of your posts have been way out of character lately, man. Did the body snatchers get you? Is this Ethan Hunt in a Robert Rice mask?

The guy can't go fully MIHOP yet and expect to stay in the race!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get it through your thick skulls, people!!!! He WILL do everything in his power as President to fix the mess this country is in!!! Why is that so hard to see? If that is not an honest man, if he turns out to be just another scumbag politician... I would expect hell to freeze over or the universe to implode or something. If Ron Paul isn't trustworthy, I'll be strining myself up by the neck, because I'd obviously be a hopelessly misguided person.

he has no realistic chance of winning, and thats not just "playing into their hands". Robert RIce is correct. if Paul wanted to make a real impact, he needs to do it while he still has some sort of a platform/soapbox. instead, he will go on to lose, go back to being a congressmen with not much of a voice and not a word of 9/11 truth would have been spoken on the campaign trail expect by the brave people that confront Giuliani and the other scum. Ron Paul would probably make the best president out of all of the people currently running. he also has a slightly better chance than Gravel at winning which is none. this is just the reality of things if you know anything about electoral politics in this country. sad but true. i know its nice to have something to believe in and it really sucks to have to sit back and watch the inevitable, a Clinton/Obama/Romney/McCain presidency, but that is exactly what we are going to get. we are NOT going to win this thing by electing a president. it just doesnt work that way, not while the system is broken. the system WILL NOT allow a Ron Paul to win. it simply isnt possible right now. by all means keep campaigning for Paul and keep promoting Paul. i mention him to people all the time, especially the obvious media bias against him but you cant bash Robert for telling it like it is. and be honest conciousness, for all of Paul's merits, you dont really think Paul will ever go MIHOP do you? hes more honest about 9/11 than any other presidential candidate except maybe kucinich but last time i checked he was telling Giuliani to read the 9/11 Commission Report and talking about the threat of islamic terrorism. he would make the best president but he wont win. this is a fantasy and ignores all evidence of how things work in this corrupt country. im NOT saying we should stop supporting Ron Paul but i am saying it should be ok to be realistic about this as well as Paul's tepid stance toward the 9/11 truth movement.

We need someone to actually speak up for 9/11 Families and a new investigation while they still have a platform and some spotlight! Dr. Paul is without doubt a great statesman and someone who would do right by the Constitution as President, but he is in NO WAY AN ADVOCATE FOR 9/11 TRUTH. (At least not so far.) I watched him for over an hour on C-SPAN last month and he never uttered a single word about it. He doesn't bring it up in debates. He isn't pressing for any action in the House of Representatives.

Like all Libertarian style candidates, Paul is good on some things and terrible on others. But can we honestly say he is a "hero for 9/11 truth" ?

That's my estimate of how long they would let Dr. Paul live after saying 9-11 was perpetrated by the US/Israeli governments. Ten days on the outside. Bob Graham, Max Cleland, and Bob Kerry all said the same things Dr. Paul is saying now, three years ago. He's not an investigative journalist, he's a Republican Presidential Candidate who knows just how far this thing has to unwind.

Ron Paul, wether you agree with his particular stances on the traditional left/right paradigm wedge issues, has been consistently vocal speaking out against the financiers and their stranglehold over the American government. Many people would not have known about this system were it not for his hard work. I have been consistently impressed with how he has spoken truth directly in the face of institutions such as the federal reserve.

While this may not seem perhaps as effective as calling for an investigation limited in scope to 9/11, I submit that bringing knowledge of this system to the people is at least of equal value to our cause of bringing awareness of the rogue network of the September Criminals (and why they are allowed to function) to the general public.

My "hit it out of the park" comment was more in context to his presentation at the airport with that group of supporters, but I believe it does apply here to our community as well. He and his political base now appear ready to take on larger issues, having escaped being pigeonholed as a fringe candidate. I think he's playing it smart, and playing to win. I know many people that I respect deeply may have a difference of opinion with me on this, but I believe his response to Guiliani during the debates, using what is officially on the record (a la the Commission report etc) was brilliant politically. For Guiliani to contradict the book assignment would have been for HIM to reject the official conspiracy theory. I also believe the exchange got more people to look a second time at the story, and further I submit those who research the history of the military/industrial/financial complex find 9/11 truth almost by default.

Now, with this exchange, he has again affirmed that he believes the Commission to have been a coverup, and is skeptical about the possiblities of accountability being delivered by any "independant" body to investigate without being able to choose the right people for the job.

We should not pin all our hopes on any one individual. But it brings sincere joy to my heart to see a country whose values I deeply admire rally in such awesome numbers behind a candidate who is, by his own record, honest about protecting them. I believe the political system can work if it is made to work for and by the people.

PS: I apologize to Congressman Kucinich and his supporters for my flippant post title, I do respect his call for Cheney's impeachment and a new investigation, limited in scope or otherwise. Even the 9/11 Commission inadvertently allowed a vast amount of important information into the public domain.

Robert you are so Right!!!!! It will get buried just like everything else. I say: "Webster Tarpley or Bob Bowman for President" But, even if that ever happened, they would get assassinated. Remember JFK and what he was proposing to do before the dreaded day. It's time to impose the Declaration of Independence once again, IMO.

Dennis is genuine. He wants peace. He is the ONLY politician who is actually GOING to do something in regards to some of the unanswered questions of 9/11 (besides Cynthia McKinney's hearings a few years ago).

To say he is a fascist NWO shill is pure ignorance.

You listen to Alex Jones? I can tell by the negativity in your posts.

Me too, but I haven't for a few weeks because my stupid ipod isn't responding.

You are mistaken, however about Dennis. I don't agree with his recent bill about banning handguns. He's an idealist and a peace advocate, and I respect that. Plus, he has stated on several occasions that he will be investigating aspects of 9/11. Would a 'fascist, NWO shilling WHORE' dare touch 9/11 while in Congress? No.

Unfortunately, dick, you make yourself sound irrational with posts like the one above.

Let's keep our eye on the prize here: Getting down to the bottom of 9/11. Dennis Kucinich is making more efforts than ANYONE in Congress.

How is the anti-corporate, anti-NAFTA Dennis Kucinich a "fascist, NWO shilling whore"? At least make your insults logical. While I'm less enthused about gun control than I was pre-9/11 Truth, I still respect those who honestly think it's better for the country. And I think Kucinich is honest about thinking it's a positive thing. Would you have called MLK a fascist, NWO whore because he used peaceful resistance? I think it would be great if human society could get to the point where we don't need/want guns anymore. I just think we're a bit further away from getting there than Kucinich does. But this does not bring him anywhere near Cheney and Bush. So stop the character assassination.

In any case, you're gun won't do shit for you if the guys you're against actually decide to go after you. You're better off putting the money into a nice casket.

So Ron Paul admits there's a cover up of... ineptitude. Not of murder, insurance fraud or any of the other crimes we are convinced were committed. Just ineptitude. Big whoop. He keeps going back to how we can do better with intelligence to avoid future attacks- That's a great idea, but there's not a word about looking into the real cause of death for all those innocent people. Therefore, I don't see Paul as a great champion for the crusade for truth. Is he the best republican? You betcha. What appeals to me the most about him is his integrity. He's probably got enough integrity to staff a real, independent investigation if he had to. BUT, he is a republican and I swore I would never vote republican because of their anti-abortion plank.

So, I looked at Dennis Kucinich. Actually, I looked at Dennis because Ron said that Dennis was the only other candidate whose views were similar to his own. (I thought it was amazing that a republican would recommend a democrat.) I hadn't looked at Dennis is a long time because my first impression of him from months ago was that he was so lacking in charisma that he was doomed. But, being desperate, I looked at every video on his site yesterday. I think he's hired a new speech writer or something, but I am now wholly convinced that he's the man we need in the white house. He's got the stones to file impeachment papers on Cheney (!) and I believe he's got the integrity required to look again at 911. Best of all, with Dennis we can also get universal, single payer health coverage plus the other democratic ideals that I cherish (right to choose, worker's rights, etc.).

I'm sure there's a reason that the truth movement seems to have abandoned Dennis in favor of Ron, but I must have missed it. If there's a substantive reason to think he'd not look into the truth, please let me know. Until then, GO DENNIS!!!!

Dennis Kucinich going for impeachment is pretty obviously a political move to get votes and some attention. Pelosi already said and keeps repeating that it's off the table. As for the 9/11 mini-investigation, I doubt he would get the support he needs to do anything.
I respect the man and before I saw Ron Paul in action, he was my favorite. But the guns ban goes against the constitution, and something I think the democratic party has it wrong.
I'm not democrat or republican. I can't even vote 'cos I'm not a citizen yet. But I do believe in the genius behind the constitution, and the only candidate running to follow it to the letter, is Ron Paul.
