My administration will fight for requirements styled after the REINS Act (Regulations From the Executive in Need of Scrutiny) to ensure all new bureaucratic regulations are thoroughly reviewed and approved by Congress before taking effect. I also will cancel all onerous regulations previously issued by executive order.
I will move to abolish all corporate subsidies and end all bailouts.

I love Ron Paul because he's able to discuss these fantasies as if there was any chance of any of them ever happening (because he'll never be elected).
A lot of his supporters actually think the president has such power.
I do agree with the man on a lot of issues, as do many people, but fundamentally his idea of what government should be is at odds with the desires of the modern world. He wants to change society by changing government, which is exactly backwards. Government is a reflection of the society that it governs.

Not Sure says
All done with the consent of congress.
If Obama's last two years have taught us anything, it's damn near impossible to get anything done without congressional consent.

Gentle Readers,
Rep. Ron Paul is a symptom, not a cause. He is like a painful, swollen prostate gland. This is a symptom that indicates and underlying infection. A notable analogue to our current political, economic, and societal situation.
That being said, I've been preparing for a Zombie Apocalypse. If Rep. Paul is elected POTUS, I have approaches to the Family Manse dialled-in and firing assignments to cover these parsed out to family members. So far, this has been entirely an exercise on paper. Let's hope it stays that way.
Recommended Reading: Zone One.
Recommended Viewing: Dawn of the Dead (1978), Dawn of The Dead (2004) I should remark that Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine performs a cover of Down With The Sickness (org. by Disturbed). If you like sick, twisted, dark metal tunes, then give the cover and the original a listen - most enjoyable.
Regards,
Roidy
P.S. ... and yes, the election of Rep Ron Paul would be the Zombie Apocalypse.
P.S. FUCK YOU LARRY SUMMERS AND BEN BERNANKE! ..I.,

Gentle Readers,
Rep Ron Paul is no serious candidate for President. Neither are the rest of these idiots including POTUS Obama.
The reason they are not is quite simple: Our current candidates for POTUS do not fully understand the issues that we face.
No one understands. There are no adequate candidates for POTUS nor could there be. We would all be a lot better off if we as a society fully understood that we don't understand.
It is all our fault, too. We are the reason we are presented with an array of Fucktards that are not up to the job. It is why we got POTUS Obama and Sen. McCain to choose from on the last go-around. So we elect a neophyte over an old man who choose a VP candidate who is entirely stupid. Sarah Palin? Really? POTUS Obama then gets in and immediately chooses the same shit stains that were there promoting the mess in the first place: Larry Summers, TuroTaxTimmy, and that Christina Romer idiot. (Promote is not the same as caused.)
Fucktards one and all.
We are so fucked. We can't seem to do anything about it. We have candidates whose solutions and viewpoints are not worth a large bowl if shit soup. It's our fault, too.
Doesn't that make you get a warm feeling? Like you just pissed your pants?
Regards,
Roidy

Probably, you're right, but one of them will be US President in 2012. I'd rather hve this one to be Ron Paul.
