That is their choice.
The older I get, the more I find myself subscribing to the Ron Paul isolationist viewpoint.

It sounds like you're moving in a good direction.

Perhaps as you get older you'll realize that Ron Paul's viewpoint isn't one of isolationism. That is simply what the blind detractors of his viewpoint like to let roll out their mouth due to their lack of understanding.

Don't let them convince you of their viewpoint. It is based firmly on ignorance.

But that's just me...

It's not just democracy. We have a constitution promising freedom of thought and expression. Even in so called democracies there they do not protect religious freedoms and choices like we do here

Well, when we say "democracy" we are assuming that democracy is protected with some sort of manifesto, contract, constitution.

Coadie,

President Obama's policy is to lead America away from her role as the world's police officer-- a policy that was mandated when he was elected by most American Democrats and many cross-over American Republicans.


He's not somewhere watching teevee!
