"Mutually Assured Respect offers a policy of respect, trade, and friendship, and rejects threats, sanctions, and occupations." ~ Ron Paul

Ron Paul’s suggestion to follow a foreign policy of Mutually Assured Respect, or a foreign policy based on the “Golden Rule,” may be the most revolutionary idea he has brought into the public spotlight. Treat other countries how we would want them to treat us. Trade with nations, talk with nations, travel and engage in cultural exchange; embrace freedom! These are ideas that could change the world and pave the way for peaceful relations between all nations.

Ron Paul’s legacy will be built upon his efforts to bring about true and lasting peace both domestically and abroad.

Why the Military Supports Ron Paul (11.11.11) http://davidkretzmann.com/2011/11/ron-paul-veterans-for-peace-11-11-11/ http://davidkretzmann.com/2011/11/ron-paul-veterans-for-peace-11-11-11/#comments Fri, 04 Nov 2011 15:16:02 +0000 David Kretzmann http://davidkretzmann.com/?p=824 Of all the 2012 presidential candidates, none is more mocked and misunderstood when it comes to foreign policy than Ron Paul. Ron Paul’s non-interventionist foreign policy is repeatedly misinterpreted as a radicial isolationist view. Interestingly, the military donates more money to Ron Paul than any other candidate (including President Obama).

So far in this election cycle, Ron Paul has received more than $100,000 from active duty military personnel. Obama has brought in nearly $69,000. Military donations to all other GOP candidates combined still comes up short of Ron Paul’s tally.

Surely the people accusing Ron Paul of being a radical and fringe thinker with foreign policy aren’t going to accuse the troops of the same thing. There is a reason the military supports Ron Paul. Here are two videos I made to help explain why.
