Well, lets see what we got here.
The first article is about his foreign aid policy and that poor people do not pay for foreign aid. The rich pay for foreign aid, while poor people's tax money is given back to them (for the most part) and the middle class pays for stuff like social security. I find that to be highly idiotic. Every penny sent over (no matter who sent it) is less money that we have to work on our own country. Not to mention (according to this article) a large portion (around 75%) of the money sent over, ends up in the hands of people in that country who are already rich.
On to the 2nd article!! Well... I had a hard time figuring out if this guy is for or against Ron Paul. He agrees with Ron Paul through most of it, but disagrees on what would happen if Iran did manage to make Nuclear weapons. He thinks that Iran would take its power and run with it, gaining control of the world's oil and that the US would be powerless to stop them since we will not detonate a nuke no matter the circumstances. I'm not sure that this rag tag group would be able to stand up against the strongest military in the world even if they developed a nuke.
The 3rd article is about the internet thinks Ron Paul is ahead but actually the internet says Mitt Romney is ahead. Don't really know what to say about this to be honest. I don't really think this matters that much.
The last article talks about what to do with the military budget over the next 10 years and how it will change. This article was complete speculation and I honestly do not know enough about the military budget to make my own opinion on how it will change in 10 years.
