lol, I like Ron Paul and all, I even voted for him in the primary but he in no way won the Republican primaries. I think he placed second in a couple states like Montana and Nevada but in terms of pure votes and more importantly delegates, he was way behind McCain, Romney, and even Huckabee.

I believe he's referring to the 2000 election, where Al Gore really won, but Jeb Bush (Governor of Florida at the time) made sure his brother won the election instead. It's possible that this scenario could occur yet again, though it's not very likely to happen.

Got any hard proof of that? Or do you just have a partisan hatred of Bush? I mean I don't like him either but ultimately the Supreme Court decided the issue with Bush v. Gore.

Your ignorance continues to astound me. Immediately following 9/11, a French newspaper declared, "We are all Americans." There was a worldwide consensus in favor of American military action. You're a fucking goddamn retard if you think Gore wouldn't have done the same thing as Bush (at least as far as AFGHANISTAN IS CONCERNED!)
It wasn't until Bush's unilateral invasion of Iraq, a war which was founded on entirely incorrect precepts, that world opinion turned against us.
Oh, and apparently you're not aware that the neocons CRITICIZED Bill Clinton for "wasting his time" trying to hunt down bin Laden during his administration. Once 9/11 happened, those same hypocrites turned around and criticized him for "not doing ENOUGH" to hunt him down.
Would you fucking get a grip on reality?
