Well put. And all the candidates of the two business parties - with the exception of Paul - are in favor of the US government's continuing to commit what Nuremberg called "the supreme international crime, differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole" - i.e., aggressive war, hence worse than terrorism.

But this view is outside the limits of allowable debate in the US, so Paul is labelled an "isolationist" by the liberals. It's not hard to choose him over them (although you'd think they'd have some shame, after Obama). --CGE
