Actually Dennis Kucinich when asked who he would choose for a running mate
said he would consider choosing Ron Paul
Precisely because of what John mentions here....the pincer movement.
Peace,

Subject: Re: [Peace-discussion] Must read.
Actually Nader has spoken approvingly of Paul - and vice versa. Neither is
a socialist in the old 19th century sense of the word - but neither am I and
neither is the GP.
I do not want to be rude BUT all the points you raise are almost the
standard ones that trip off the tongue of Leftists - all very predictable.
I am not proposing that we support Paul - but I would damned sure vote for
him before any one of the Dems in the field including Kucinich.
I find that there is a failure on the "Left" to rethink things in a serious
way and form alliances that are not across the board but may exert a pincer
movement on the parties of war, death and empire.

Ron Paul does not deserve the support of any Green in
my opinion.
To begin with, he opposes every consumer and
environmental protection that Nader has ever worked
for as he feels all those government regulations are
unduly burdensome on business.
He opposes carbon cap and trade and most all
government regulations of pollution.
He opposes all forms of public education. In fact his
chief campaign organizer in Iowa is a guy who is paid
for by a conservative think tank that believes public
education undermines parents religious rights by it's
mere existence and at least since he is tied up with
the Ron Paul campaign he not touring the country
trying to defeat public schools systems funding
referenda.
He opposes civil rights laws and regulations as an
undue monitoring of what he sees as personal morality
by the government.
He is part of the southern Milesian tradition of
libertarianism which often draws white supremacists
and those sentimental for the days of the confederacy
and which tend to be far more socially conservative
than their Cato Institute related brethren. For
example, Ron Paul, for all his libertarian
credentials, believes the government SHOULD use it's
force to restrict abortion and other post
fertilization forms of birth control so he is
decisively anti-abortion and even opposed to numerous
forms of birth control.
He doesn't support government protection of the right
to unionize either.
He doesn't support current social safety net programs
such as welfare, medicare, medicaid let alone fully
opposing Green objectives such as universal single
payer healthcare.
And his immigration policies are as backward from
Green positions as those of the infamously rascist and
anti-immigrant candidate Tom Tancredo.
Is it allright to work with him together on the
singular issues we do agree with him on such as
opposing the war though from very different reasonings
and frames?
You betch ya!
However, this should not translate into a campaign in
favor of so so many things which we heartily oppose
and opposed to so so many things we support.
If that's a "sling or arrow", I hope it's hit it's
mark.
