Military support for Paul

So we now know that, measured in terms of financial support, Ron Paul, the one GOP candidate who actually backs individual liberty against government power, is now ahead of Huckabee, Brownback, Thompson (Tommy) and Tancredo. He’s the alternative to the Big Three. But guess who are among his strongest supporters? The U.S. military. Paul has a staggering 52.53 percent of all military contributions.

I think we've already had this on here (or was it on another forum?) but it certainly deserves some hefty direct attention. As far as I can tell, Ron Paul has this basic plan for the war- - Work out a clear and achievable objective, eg. stabilise Iraq to the point of POTENTIAL functionality if the government takes the necessary steps. - Achieve this objective. - Leave. - If the objective isn't completed within a suitable timeframe, then consider future options, one of which might be a tactical withdrawal. This is the kind of thinking that soldiers like. It's how generals think. I know several people in the army, and they would ALL love some politician to take this approach. Soldiers are not policemen: they don't like directionless attritional operation for years on end. Soldiers are like builders: give them a well-thought out plan and tell them to do it, and they'll do it to the best of their ability. Ron Paul is a true soldier's kind of President because he's NOT using either pacifism or war-mongering to win support. He's just putting forward a rational approach and clear set of guidelines (didn't he propose a sensible withdrawal if the surge has not shown significant results by September?). It seems to me that it was this lack of cool-headed rational thinking that has led to the problems in Iraq. _________________ If you can't say what you mean then you'll never mean what you say God holds no fears Death no worries And while good is readily attainable Evil is readily endurable
