Prior to the CRA, Restaurant A had a “No Blacks” policy. Restaurant B served all customers regardless of race.

With passage of CRA, Restaurant A takes down its “No Blacks” sign and starts serving everyone. But, do we really think passing a law has changed the owner of Restaurant A from a racist to a non-racist? Of course not. Worse still is that black customers are going to now give Restaurant A’s owner more profits, while Restaurant B loses business, because Restaurant A’s racism is not gone, it’s merely covered up.

The only people obsessed with repealing the Civil Rights Act and opening up this issue from over 40 years ago are extreme left pundits afraid that his support could catch fire with liberals disillusioned with Obusha’s proven hypocrisy and Wall Street run policies, and who can’t really attack Paul on the issues of today because the last legs they had to stand on were kicked out from under them during Obama’s first term.

Obama turned out to be as much of a war monger as Bush. In fact, in all this talk about racism, I have yet to hear any liberals besides Wayne Madsen address the fact that the Libyan rebels Obama’s White House are supporting are carrying out a genocide of black Africans. This was happening even before the U.S. announced its support for them.

On the economy, even rabidly left Democratic Congressmen question the Federal Reserve’s policies and the fact that our money is being given away to foreign central banks.

We’re heading for a dollar crisis if we’re not careful and that reality is starting to be expressed in the mainstream, though the only answers being highlighted are more of the same big government policies that led us into this mess.

Though I can’t speak for the Paul campaign, the issue of racism was probably on the 2008 campaign site because people keep bringing it up and fear-mongering that Ron Paul is going to repeal the Civil Rights Act. (So of course he’s going to address it). The Civil Rights Act was a complicated issue with a lot of emotion attached to it, but unfortunately the media only appeals to this emotional part (that racism is of course bad) in order to stifle all intellectual debate and ignore the constitutional ramifications of well-meaning policies.

Like the argument Rand Paul made when Rachel Maddow tried to make an issue of this with him on her show: though racism is bad and the portions that prohibited discrimination on government property was right, the Civil Rights Act also sets the precedent that a bar owner in a locality where open carry is allowed who doesn’t want people to bring guns into his bar for obvious reasons can’t put in place that policy because his patrons have 2nd Amendment rights. Essentially this means that in the end nobody has real property rights.

Ron Paul does have an opinion on the Civil Rights Act based on these constitutional ramifications, not racism as people claim. However the only time he addresses this issue is when it’s brought up by liberal pundits during interviews as a mental sleight of hand in order to divert focus from the issues that he is actually actively attacking—foreign policy and the Federal Reserve. Even if people don’t agree with his intellectual opinion on the Civil Rights Act and/or even tremble at the misguided fear that Ron Paul is going repeal the Civil Rights Act when he takes office, ask yourself how he would be able to do that without an act of Congress…especially since he’s a proven strict constitutionalist.

Obviously such a move wouldn’t have popular support and couldn’t gain that support in the four years Ron Paul could realistically serve.
What he can do if suddenly placed in the position of commander in chief of the military presiding over several undeclared wars is bring the troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan, stop drone bombing people in Pakistan, and stop supporting the Libyan rebels that are killing black people left and right….which is his expressed desire.

Though you’ll never see Ron Paul march in a gay rights parade, he supported the repeal of “Don’t Ask, don’t tell” and doesn’t believe it’s the federal government’s role to define marriage.

The newsletter story has been addressed already in 2008. Rather than address it myself I’ll let him do it for you…

Vote for Obama if you want more war and the purchasing power of your savings to further evaporate. Otherwise consider a paradigm shift and stop fixating on contrived distractions.

If anything he want to do the Minorities a good favor by Repealing the WAR on Drugs, and Pardoning any Non-Violent offenders from Jails, which he understands is a majority of minorities.
