Veteran discusses voting for Ron Paul
We have here somebody who actually did just go vote for Ron Paul,
a first time caucus voter,
Corporal Jesse Thorson, who is 28 years old and you're active duty U S.
Army. Why did you vote for Ron Paul?
Well, I'm really excited
about a lot of his ideas, especially when it comes to bringing the soldiers home.
I've been serving for 10 years now, and all 10 years of those have been
during wartime. I'd like to see a little peacetime Army,
and I think he has the right idea. Now,
you have done two tours in Afghanistan, you told me.
You're going to go back for a third tour.
I mean, if you can see your neck right there,
what you have on your tattoo, 9 11,
remember, and a picture of the Twin Towers.
You know, some Republicans out there have been saying that Ron Paul would be very
dangerous for this country because he wants to bring troops like you
back from your post from all over
the world. Well, I think it would be even more dangerous to start nitpicking wars
with other countries. Someone like Iran, Israel is more than capable.
All right, we just lost our connection, unfortunately.
