I was cruising through my online sources the other day, and stumbled upon something many of you will find surprising. A very conservative advocacy group has come out endorsing Ron Paul for President. I can actually hear the blood pressure rising in some of my staunchly Republican friends now.
In fact, this group made videos about their support.
In this first video, Molotov makes his actual endorsement for Ron Paul.
As you can see, he didn't go into a lot of details, he just made the endorsement. The reasons for the endorsement are made in this second video. He makes the point that Ron Paul is the most conservative of all the candidates. He also proposes an analogy that if Barack Obama is Jimmy Carter, then Ron Paul is Ronald Reagan.
I've spoken to many Republican Paul-haters, and their major point of disagreement seems to be foreign policy, especially his stance on foreign aid to Israel. Molotov deals with this question in detail, pointing out that Paul's foreign policy will actually HELP Israel. We fund Israel's (mostly non-friendly) neighbors TEN TIMES more than we fund Israel, and we keep trying to micro-manage their nation. Isn't it time we got out their way and stopped treating Israel like our "yarmulke wearing step-child?" If we respect them, then don't they deserve their independence... from us?
And if you are interested in words from Paul's own mouth, here's a short interview with him specifically on his foreign policy and relations with Israel. It's quite interesting.

So there you go, some really decent videos giving some solid reasons why Ron Paul MUST be the GOP candidate for President. Agree or not, I hope you enjoyed the videos. Hopefully, they gave you something new to think about.
