It is impossible to make U.S. borders 100% secure. And I'm not in favor of the federal government spending a lot of taxpayer money on social projects like a nationalized social security medical program or giving U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund government schools.

And it is not rational to think that U.S. voters would vote for someone like Ron Paul. The majority of voting Americans are not in favor of withdrawing U.S. troops from NATO and withdrawing from the U.N. The majority of U.S. voters are not in favor of pulling all U.S. troops out of Europe, the Middle East and the Far East. And the majority of U.S. voters are not in favor of retreating from the war in Afghanistan or Iraq. Ron Paul's plan to get elected is not rational, it is idealistic.
