Hi! I had a friend write this to me and I was wanting input on how to debate that she is wrong. Can you guys help me? What she said is underlined bellow. Thanks! ~Rebekah
"Except that he raised taxes in Arkansas while he was governor. Also, His whole idea of doing away with the IRS actually came after Ron Paul presented the idea. Ron Paul will never make it… but he is a wishful choice."
"I have never heard of Ron Paul talk about fair tax. I would like to read or listen to it. Actually Huckabee never said he came up with it. In fact he said that he did not come up with it. and neither did Ron Paul. Georgia Republican John Linder first introduced the Fair Tax Act (HR 2525) in July 1999 to the 106th United States Congress. Huckabee and Paul just adopted the belief.
I have watched all the debates with Ron Paul and do not like the way he thinks. In my opinion Ron Paul opinion on the war is completely off. But I have to vote for someone who has more of a chance then Ron Paul and who is Dead set Against abortion. I cant waste my vote on someone who cant win and let McCain who has flip flopped on Abortion make it. Besides Chuck Norris told me too….hehe."
It seems that every on at this time likes to nit pick at every thing. Who cares who came out with a saying first.
People need to get real and stop this back stabing. There are more serious things going on in this country
that need the attention of the people. For instant how about our freedom being taken away a little bit at a time.
Big business that runs our government and the federal reserve that will take over our monetary system. I
could go on and on about the ways your rights are being taken away. You need to wake up.

You are right, that is why I feel like voting for Ron Paul was a wasted vote. He isnt really a republican, he couldnt have won, and he was taking away votes from people who could have gone up against Obama and won! That is why this debate was important because it is dangerous to waste a vote on someone who has no chance of winning... I was hoping to get that across to my friend.
Besides the whole point of the post was to get help on how to respond to her, not to get help on how to nit pick everything with her.
