According to the Houston Chronical (http://www.chron.com/content/chronicle/aol-metropolitan/96/05/23/paul.html) Ron Paul published a newsletter in the 80's and 90's referring to blacks as essentially criminals and made references to "Zionist" conspiracies.
According to a May 24, 1996 article by the Associated Press titled "Newsletter by Paul attacked" Ron Paul circulated a political newsletter to some 7,000 subscribers since 1985. The AP article noted that, in 1992 Paul circulated a newsletter that made comments of the sort
If you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how
unbelievably fleet-footed they can be.
The AP artcile continued:
Citing statistics from a 1992 study produced by the National Center on Incarceration and Alternatives, a criminal justice think tank based in Virginia, Paul concluded in his column: "Given the inefficiencies of what DC laughingly calls the criminal justice system, I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi criminal or entirely criminal."
"These aren't my figures," Paul said this week. "That is the assumption you can gather from" the report.
He also wrote: "Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market, individual liberty and the end of welfare and affirmative action."
Paul continued that politically sensible blacks are outnumbered "as decent people."
Such comments are not only racist and immoral, but are also just plain stupid. Such comments make him unfit for the position of Commander-in-Chief. I cannot vote for this man.
