A little 'out there,' but not a demagogue.

(111,336 posts)He just raves in that doctor's delivery that sounds so reasonable even when he's spouting utter nonsense.

(102,351 posts)less religious crazy (Santorum), less slimy (Mitt). If you weren't really listening to everything he says, but just how he says it, he sounds quite sane and reasonable.

(37,540 posts)he sounded the most reasonable of the 3 candidates. I didn't pay any attention to Santorum's.

(28,394 posts)At least compared to the other 3 candidates who are unbearable, IMO.
Paul has kind of a funny, folksy way about him that makes him kind of tolerable. I can understand why his fans like him. (But, I repeat, I am NOT one of them!!!)
LOL

At least Ron Paul sticks to the same message. He is sincere.

(11,936 posts)Even in the debates, he doesn't go out of his way to talk nasty about others, not even Obama. He keeps it cordial and that I respect, if not much else.

(131,084 posts)is that he does NOT get nasty or lie about PrezO and his policies.
With the others hanging around, its gonna be a LOOOOONG year, imo.

He's sort of the crackpot uncle who might be occasionally entertaining to listen to at family gatherings, and once in a while he even meanders to some opinion you agree with, but you know he's also a bigot, and you're thankful he doesn't really have any power.
