Ron Paul’s “South Was Right” Civil War Speech With Confederate Flag

20.01.2012 - Ron Paul has made no secret the fact that he thought that the South was right in the Civil War. Here he is giving a speech in front of a giant Confederate Flag about why he believes the North was wrong in the Civil War and why the South was right.

Ron Paul is a neo-Confederate, and proud member of the Ludwig Von Mises Institute, which has been labeled as a neo-Confederate organization. In the video he claims that the North should have paid to buy slaves from southern slave owners to avoid the war, rather than the South renouncing slavery. Paul also fails to bring up the fact that it was the South that started the war by attacking the North in 1861.

Ron Paul was also was the only member of congress to vote against honoring the Civil Rights Act Of 1964 on its 40th anniversary in 2004. Paul would also claim that he wouldn’t have voted for it at the time, putting him on the side of the racists in both the fight against slavery and the fight against Jim Crow segregation, the two defining struggles of Black people in America.

Several Ron Paul supporters have asked that the video be taken down, from the pro-Confederate channel, Patriot Review but Patriot Review believes that the video could help Paul win South Carolina. If they do take it down,  Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs has downloaded a copy of the video.

Jesus fucking Christ.

I’m regretting those two lunch sundaes, because I’m starting to feel them come back up.

I couldn’t get through this, and I doubt my followers will be able to, but it’s important that everyone sees it.

He is.  A racist.  Homophobic.  Sack.  Of.  Dicks.

People will still support him because “this was s long ago” and “he wants to legalize drugs”. Some people refuse to see the truth.

i just need people to note that this happened on 

JANUARY 20, 2012

This is not some skeleton from his past. This is 6 days ago.

Fuck Ron Paul, and fuck anyone who supports him.
