Ron Paul's Modest Proposal

EAT THE BABIES

1/19/2012 9:55:01 PM

In the Pac Never Got Shot timeline Tupac Shakur wasn't shot five times on the night of November 30, 1994. So he and Notorious B.I.G. stayed friends. December 1, 1994, Tupac was not found guilty of three counts of sexual abuse. He began studying politics at yale on September 14, 1995 and released his multi-platinum album Me Against the World. I. Marion "Suge" Knight, CEO of Death Row Records, offered to sign him up if Tupac would drop out of University. But Tupac refused. Instead he signed to Sean "Puff Daddy" Comb's Bad Boy Records. Biggie had convinced Puffy to Let Tupac study as well as sing music.

February 13, 1996: Pac releases his fourth solo album, The Golden Rule.

September 7, 1996: Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs is shot twice. He survives but loses his voice, ending his career as a rapper.

September 13, 1996:: Puffy's shooter gets arrested and is traced back to Marion "Suge" Knight.

November 9, 1996:: Suge is found guilty of conspiracy of murder.

December 11, 1996:: Suge begins serving his prison sentence.

June 30 1998: Tupac Graduates from Yale and announces he is leaving the music industry and announces he is running for Congress as a representative of New York on the republican ticket and a strict constitutional platform. During his political career he would be good friends with Ron Paul from Texas.

November 9 1998: Tupac defeats Sue Kelly by a slim margin for the 19th district of New york.

May 13 1999: Tupac and Ron Paul propose the Sanctity of life act which would set a mandatory cooldown time for abortion counseling at least 24 hours before the operation alongside capping the time of abortions to a maximum time of 18 weeks into a pregnancy. The bill is passed by a unanimous majority in both the House and the Senate forcing Bill Clinton to sign it. Planned parenthood immediately goes to the supreme court saying it is unconstitutional.

August 24 1999: the Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade by a Unanimous Majority saying in Planned Parenthood v Shakur and Paul that the Federal government has the right to regulate abortion. Massive protests occur which quickly subside when Tupac tells the crowds that he "never said abortion was made illegal, but there has to be something done about the massive rates of abortion in this country" as well as accusing them of hypocrisy by opposing the death sentence of murderers and rapists in one hand and on the other remaining silent on compulsory abortions in China adding that early feminists actually opposed abortion saying it is a symptom rather than a solution to sexism.

January 2000: Tupac proposes a bill that would repeal all gun control laws in the USA. That bill passes through the House and Senate, but is vetoed by Bill Clinton

June 16 2000 As a birthday present, Tupac receives a Harley Davidson motorcycle, which Pac uses everyday to gt to congress.

November 20 2000: George W Bush, on a ticket with Condoleeza Rice, wins the presidency by a very slim margin.

January 20 2001: Bill Clinton issues 142 presidential pardons on his last day in office. Controversy ensues when Tupac learns that Suge was also pardoned

May 3 2001 Japan, China, India, Pakistan and the USA sign the Asian-American space treaty that would enable them to cooperate on sending a crew to mars by 2009 and create a Missile defence shield. Shakur led the majority ratifying the treaty quoting Thomas Jefferson "peace commerce and honest friendship with all nations"

September 11 2001: 9/11 never happens because of the Airline Security Act and all the terrorists are apprehended after the planes make an emergency landing

January 3 2002: work begins on the Orion (which in TTL is designed to go to mars)

February 5 2002: Tupac announces a run for the senate, representing New York.

June 2 2002: On the way to Congress to propose a bill that would scrap the Federal Reserve, Tupac dies in a collision with a car.

1/20/2012 5:55:07 PM

off to vote in the primary. kinda disappointed in Paul's presence here in SC. I have 16 messages from Mitt Romney on my phone, some even with him or one of his lackeys saying "Hi, Bryan", which, though creepy, means they at least did some research to tie the phone number with the person that pays for it. I also haven't seen any commercials for Ron Paul, though I haven't been watching much TV this week. Even then, I've seen several Romney, Santorum and Gingrich ads or their PACs.

what also is troublesome is that he sends out a ton of "newsletter" type mailings, which are great at getting his point across, but you have to take the time to actually open the envelope to see any of his positions. Meanwhile, I've got seven or eight large post-card-type mailings from the other douchebags. I at least can see what they claim to stand for and can see what message they are trying to get across without having to go through the effort of opening a letter. It's a tiny thing, yes, but it could make a difference to some people. Then again, it's never been possible to boil Paul's ideas down to bulletpoints without taking out the substance of his points.

1/21/2012 10:52:43 AM

If I were Ron Paul I'd probably steer clear of newsletters altogether.

Haha they cut the old man off mid-word. To be fair, it had been three whole minutes since a commercial.

If you watch carefully at 3:18, you can almost hear the producer screaming in the anchors earpiece. At 3:22 you can see anchor literally swallow his pride. It's also interesting to note that the question takes up more time than the answer during the interview.

Doesn't this make you angry? Rage for me, Paulites. Be sure to use as much whine in your voice as he does. It's time to dump this guy and move on to something that will really change the country. Voting certainly won't, they'll just "lose" your ballots like they did in Iowa.

why care about voting for the winner. its not like you get some kind of reward if the guy you vote for wins. all of them are the same anyway. might as well not vote if you're only going to vote for the person you think will win

Because there's plenty of other candidates who support crushing and subjugating brown people both domestic and foreign.

If they billed themselves under one ticket the old racist coot vote would be finally united!

This is mathematical proof that Ron Paul supporters are more apt than the supporters of any other candidate to stand outside and hold signs, yelling.

For Ron Paul to win by a large margin would be proof that every single poll conducted up until now was manipulated.

1/30/2012 12:48:52 PM

yeah, seriously dude. the ron paul fanaticism is a little unbearable. i mean, it's cool if you want to vote for him and all, and i'll even agree that he's being largely ignored by the major media outlets, but they're not rigging the votes (because they don't have to - the strategy of ignoring him is working just fine).

paul fans seem to be pretty computer literate, so it seems like his support is high. but a large section of the republican base doesn't use youtube.

It would require more faith to believe that our elections are totally legit than to believe that they're being manipulated. Why in the world wouldn't elections be rigged? Do you really think TPTB are going to let a little thing like "elections" or "voting" get in the way of what they're entitled to?

1/30/2012 1:45:39 PM

you missed my point.

2000 wasn't that long ago. I'm saying that they don't need to rig the election against Paul, because he's not realistic threat.


oh, and using TPTB kind of re-inforces the notion that Paul fans are over-represented on the internet. I'm in my mid 20s and had to look that shit up.

Quote :

They don't need to rig the election because the media is doing the heavy lifting. I mean, watch any MSM interview with Paul, and the questions are all the same. "What about the racist newsletters? Will you support one of the other candidates?

The media narrative is very clear here. Paul cannot win. Of course, it ignores the blatant reality that Santorum or Gingrich can't win either. They're totally unelectable. If the media were not peddling the narrative that Paul can't win, he very well could win. Either media moguls are distributing memos to marginalize Paul, or pro-establishment sentiment is totally pervasive in media and they don't have to.

If every person that said, "I like Ron Paul, but he can't win" would stop saying that and just support him, he would win. The problem is that the media has been very successful in convincing everyone that he's too radical or whatever.

I'm not denying that. It's also true that atheists are over-represented on the Internet. That's because it's exceptionally harder to have your beliefs unchallenged on the Internet, at least compared to "real life", where beliefs are hardly ever challenged.

dude, did you not read my post directly above yours?

I'm agreeing with you that the media is ignoring him. But it's not because they are getting memos to specifically ignore Paul. It's because they're shitty journalists who have been trained to accept insider access in exchange for "friendly" interviews that are pro-establishment. This isn't a new or shocking revelation. American media, by and large, is controlled by a few ruling interests, and it's been that way for a while.

They don't ask any politician relevant questions that affect people.

Ron Paul may win more delegates this week than Gingrich, Santorum?

Quote :

"“Hold it”, you’re saying, “How can that be? Rep. Paul’s polling in single digits in Florida. He’s going to finish behind Gingrich and Santorum, as well as Mitt Romney, in Tuesday’s Florida primary. How can that translate into beating any of his rivals at all?” We’ll tell you how – because he’s not winning those delegates in Florida. He’s winning, or will probably win, at least a few delegates in Maine."

Quote :

"Paul took a quick two-day swing through Maine over the weekend, in case you didn’t notice. He met with GOP Gov. Paul LePage. He spoke to big crowds throughout the state – in Lewiston, apparently, event organizers had to expand his conference room to handle the people who showed up. He even landed the coveted L.L. Bean endorsement – that's Linda Lorraine Bean, heiress of the L.L. Bean empire and a lobster roll entrepreneur in her own right. She endorsed Paul on Saturday from her restaurant in the retail outlet mecca of Freeport."

Quote :

"Now Maine has only 24 delegates total, so it’s not like the Pine Tree State strategy is a springboard that will somersault Paul into the White House. Florida has 50 delegates, almost twice as many, despite the fact that it’s been penalized by the national GOP for advancing its primary. But Florida is winner-take-all. That means, if Gingrich and Santorum finish behind Romney, as polls currently indicate they will, neither of them will win any delegates. Nada. Zip."

http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/The-Vote/2012/0130/Will-Ron-Paul-win-more-delegates-this-week-than-Gingrich-Santorum/(page)/1

Take into account that Gingrich and Santorum aren't even on the ballot in some key states, and this is very clearly a two man race: Paul versus Romney.

There's no conspiracy in the media against Ron Paul, he simply just is not newsworthy.

What is newsworthy? And which candidates have made the news as a result?

A) A poll surge or collapse (Cain, Bachmann, Perry, Santorum, Gingrich)

B) High enough poll numbers that the candidate can be expected to be a contender (Romney, recently though breifly Newt)

C) Saying super controversial things (Newt, mostly. Bachmann and Santorum to an extant during their surges)


Let's look at Paul:

A) His primary poll numbers never climb nor fall more than 1 or 2 percent, he always has the same supporters and has no surge. In other words, his support is not dynamic at all, so there's never a story there.

B) This baseline support never reaches past 15% of the GOP, so he's never a serious challenger to anyone. In other words, he's never entered the "serious contender" territory.

C) He doesn't say particularly scandalous things. To be fair, his newsletters did, and he's getting coverage for it.


You don't need a media cabal conspiring to keep A TRU REVOLUTIONARY 4EVA down, there's very simple explanations for why Paul doesn't get coverage. There's no story to be had with him. The media is in the business of delivering news that its customers are interested in. When a candidate has no dynamism, mediocre (albeit consistent) polling, and very little that's shocking or outrageous about his rhetoric, he wont be covered. That's Paul in a nutshell.

Still, the defining characteristic of a Paul supporter is that everything, everything is attributable to grand conspiracies by the powers that be. What's hilarious is that their primary whines are over the media, who ignores Ron Paul for reasons that are entirely explainable through simple free market economics (which his supporters overestimate their own understanding of).


News organizations don't have to give everyone a fair shake. They are a business, and as such their goal is to deliver to the customers want the customers want. Media customers, by and large, don't want to be bored by a candidate who clearly has a small base, few converts among the GOP, no poll movement, and no ridiculous gaffes. Every single surge in media coverage for a candidate can be explained by the 3 points above, Paul has managed none of these points and as such gets almost no coverage. It's not hard to understand, but Paul fans are notorious for their ability to submerge themselves in a state of denial. That's the only way they could also believe Paul actually stands a chance of swaying GOP voters who weeks ago were lovin Santorum, Cain, or Gingrich.
