Recepie for Success: Ron Paul President + Democratic Congress

Over at LewRockwell.com they offer an interview with presidential candidate Ron Paul. Some Democrats fear that his goals to reduce the size (and spending) of the federal government would lead to an attack on social services such as welfare and Medicare. Here Paul gives his word (even Jon Stewart from the Daily Show knows Paul is consistent on keeping his word) that Ron Paul can work with Democrats to achieve what's best for our country without cutting benefits for the poor.

Here is Ron Paul in his own words:

[On Working with Dennis Kucinich] I think I will continue to work with him [Dennis] the best we can. And you know, take some of the liberal welfare spending that Dennis might support more than I. But you know, I’m not hostile toward that. If I can save the money from overseas, put some of it against the deficit, end up with a net reduction in the size of the budget, at the same time stopping a war, I may well be very open to funding some of these programs. Because I’m not out to gut some of these programs that have taught people to be very dependent on the government, like medical care. I mean, that’s not my goal. I’ve never run for office with the goal of slashing [those programs] even though philosophically I don’t think it’s the best way to deliver services and prosperity to poor people.

'Nuff Said!

A Democratic Congress will never let social services get slashed. Working together with a Ron Paul administration we can finally see the dismantling of the Military Industrial Complex, the Federal Reserve, and the Big Corporate / Big Government scams that have been robbing the poor and middle class of their wealth and liberty for so long.
