I know two Jewish people who are members of “Jews for Ron Paul,” so there are definitely some actual Jews in there. You can also be Jewish as a race and not be Jewish as a religion– you could be Jewish genetically and be Buddhist or agnostic.

Maybe Ron Paul isn’t as interested in talking about conspiracy theories regarding Democrats because he’s not one. Bush has done incredible damage to the Republican Party, and all Republicans have suffered as a group for that.

I have personally found it interesting that people are so willing to believe that Middle Easterners and terrorism are behind everything that happens today, but dismiss out of hand the idea that they could have influenced the Oklahoma City bombing. I really have no opinion on that, though. McVeigh was upset about Ruby Ridge and Waco, which were complete oversteps by the federal government (especially Ruby Ridge).

That’s not the point libertarian girl. The point is Ron Paul chooses his conspiracy theories selectively.

Notice he never, ever talks about the cover-up on the Oklahoma City bombing. There is far more evidence, and 10 times as many witnesses that McVeigh and Nichols did not act alone, as there are on the Kennedy assassination. But Paul, never talks about it.

He absolutely refuses to accept the notion that Middle-Easterners were involved or that evidence indicates that Iraqi Intelligence officers advised Terry Nichols on bomb building in the Southern Phillipines 5 times the year before the bombing.

Similarly, you never hear Paul talk about Clinton and the Mena, Arkansas drug-running operation. Or, the cover-up on the Vince Foster murder.

Any conspiracy theories against the Left or the Democrats are not of interest to him.

Only conspiracy theories that indict fellow Republicans like Bush, are highlighted and talked about ad nauseum by the Doctor.

I can tell you straight out, while he’s not an explicit Anti-Semite, he’s about as close as anyone can possibly be, without stepping over the line. He uses code words like “Jewish bankers” instead of explicitly anti-Jewish words, like “Dirty Jews.”

I was there at all those fringe meetings. I met the attendees at these meetings, none of whom knew I was Jewish. They just talked to me like I was a fellow non-Jew, and talked quite openly about all their conspiracy theories, most of which involved some sort of Jewish banker conspiracy in one way or another.

I’d add, that Ron Paul’s Campaign “Jews for Paul” organization was recently exposed for being a complete fraud. Turns out the leader of the group, was a Budhist/Agnostic and not at all Jewish.

Many people are interested by the Kennedy assassination– there are scores of books on it. I find it interesting myself, and my grandfather reads most books about it. That doesn’t make someone kooky, just interested in the happenings of the world.

I worked for the guy for 12 years. I used to have to drive him for hours on end to events. He wouldn’t shut up about kooky stuff like the Kennedy assasination, UFOs like the Roswell thing, and most especially the Tri-lateralists, Bilderbergers, CFR, Jewish Bankers, et.al.

But what’s worse about Paul is he’s a selective Conspiracy theorist.

I once asked him about the Oklahoma City bombing, and Radical Islamic connections to Tim McVeigh and Terry Nichols. He just shut up. Didn’t want to get into that subject at all. It didn’t fit his anti-American/Pro-Pacifist Lyndon Larouchie template.

That’s when I lost a lot of respect for him.

He’s all into conspiracy theories, but only supports those conspiracy theories that support his narrow view.
