This is precisely why I had someone recently tell me they'd like to see Ron Paul get elected. He's someone who has been relatively consistent on his views throughout his career as a politician - often to his detriment. They said if he got elected and also did the 180, it'd surely be the nail in the coffin on the "facts of life" reading you mentioned being a reality.
- theorique 11y agoThey said if he got elected and also did the 180, it'd surely be the nail in the coffin on the "facts of life" reading you mentioned being a reality. You mean that he would have been corrupted? Or that there were secret truths that Presidents have access to that change their actions from what they claim in advance that they would do 'as President'.
- atom-morgan 11y agoNeither. They were implying that in the case of a 180 the President is a puppet.
