Sarah Palin: Ron Paul ‘Is The One Americans Need To Listen To’ On Domestic Spending

VIDEO
» 138 comments

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin joined Eric Bolling on Fox Business Network’s Follow The Money Wednesday night, and chimed in on several hot-button GOP issues, including the Donald Trump debate and Newt Gingrich‘s rise in the polls. But her most interesting comments came when Bolling got into the weight that her endorsement may carry.

“You know the endorsement that I’m most interested in?” Palin asked. “Ron Paul’s, to tell you the truth.” Palin said she didn’t agree with Paul’s foreign policy, pointing out that he wasn’t even invited to the Republican Jewish Coalition’s summit this week. But she said that he was “absolutely right on” when it comes to his stand on domestic spending issues.

“He’s the one that Americans need to listen to when it comes to dealing in reality about this bankrupt path that we are on,” she said. “So Ron Paul’s endorsement — not saying he won’t get the nomination, but in case he doesn’t — who it is that he chooses to endorse will give us a clear indication of who is on the right path with domestic spending that needs to be addressed. I’m very interested in hearing what Ron Paul thinks at the end of the day.”

As far as the Trump debate on Dec. 27, Palin thinks that candidates skipping it do so at their own peril. Not because she’s necessarily a huge fan of Donald Trump, but because he could bring in an audience that hasn’t been exposed to the stable of GOP candidates yet:

“It’s very important that independents and those who are not obsessed with inside baseball partisan politics — which is most of us — we would like to hear more of the message of each one of these candidates, and perhaps Donald Trump would be able to attract the diverse demographic that maybe has not been as interested in this horse race, this primary process thus far.”

She added Mitt Romney should attend the Trump debate because, “We can’t just be preaching to the choir.”

    Jon,

    Will we be hearing anything funny tonight about the latest Rogues Gallery parade of corrupt Democrats taking place in DC?

    I speak of course to the Holder and Corzine hearings.
    This following the recent sentencing and convictions of Blogo and Tony Rezko.

    Democratic Party = Crony-Capitalism & Culture of Corruption!
    - and those are two of their more innocuous proclivities.

    Agreed. Palin should be irrelevant. Her opinion which supports going to a Trump debate is very wrong. 

    However, Ron Paul is very truthful and vocal on wasteful spending and unnecessary wars. Ron Paul ftw

    yawn.

  • nupe777

    Exactly how could anyone reign in spending and salvage those who depend on SS, Medicare and Medicaid without reigning in the military empire or with starting new wars. Even if you don’t believe in the philosophical points of Ron Paul’s foreign policy, how can you dispute that its the only one truly affordable? We can no longer afford to be the caretaker of the world. How can we justify giving money to countries in better financial standing than ourselves when we have to borrow over 40% of what we spend? 

    People are waking up to this whether the MSM and the Political Elites like it or not.

    Let’s do something crazy and extreme, like fixing our own problems for a change. Ron Paul 2012

Sorry Sarah, anyone who doesn’t participate in Trump’s debate actually has some dignity and integrity and is not an ass kisser. Kudos to both Paul, Romney, and Huntsman. As I understand it so far only Gingrich and Santorum are comitted to the clown who eats pizza with a knife and fork.

    She is right about the debt!
    All the other candidates plan on piling on 8-10 Trillions more debt over the next decade.
    Ron Paul is the only choice once you acknowledge that debt IS the problem.
    Americans need to choose what is more important.
    “Militarism” and 8-10T more debt – or – Ron Paul.
    “The media says he can’t win” and 8-10T more debt – or – Ron Paul.
    “Federal involvement in education” and 8-10T more debt – or – Ron Paul.

    More and more Republicans are waking up to Ron Paul’s message on the economy and our financial policy. They are surely waking up, but do not yet understand the full scope of how these issues are connected to our foreign policy. They will in in time… don’t let up. Ron Paul is the Barry Goldwater of his day. Even if he doesn’t win (which I believe he has a very good chance of doing), we are bringing the party back to it’s senses.

    I know Palin sounds ditsy and shallow but she proved an able campaigner against the establishment in Alaska and was extremely well-liked as governor prior to being tapped as McCain’s veep candidate.  Obviously some of her opponents grievously underestimated her.

    I don’t much like Palin’s foreign policy stance but I think she realizes America and the global economy are heading through the slaughterhouse chute and that our next president needs Paul’s level of understanding of the causes and magnitude of the situation.  Paul is another who is easily underestimated by listeners but his writing (he’s penned three best-sellers in the past four years — check Amazon) is crystal clear and easily conveys his grasp of history and the issues.

    Sure, he  may make smoking pot legal, but if you try to buy it from a dealer other than big pharma or grow it at home without paying Monsanto royalties your ass will be locked up.

    I think you meant the plural “Americans”. I’m sure you did not mean the singular possessive “American’s”.

    In your last sentence, you use “he” and then change to “they”. Who is “they”? The President, an individual, can’t be “they”. The “government” is a collective, so it can’t be “they”. Please rewrite your sentence and change “they” to either “he,” if you were referring to our President, or “it,” if you were referring to our government. I’ll be interested in finding out to which you are referring.

    By the way, “Bowling” is a colossal ignoramus.

  • nunyabizness71

    Nonsense? Maybe I need to use smaller words.

    The actual national debt is over 115 trillion. This is not nonsense.

  • nunyabizness71

    The outstanding public debt is 15.1 trillion. 15.1 trillion after the USA has been liquidated.

    Palin should take some of that PAC Money and hire a hair stylist before she goes on TV, other than that, who cares what she has to say.

    No, your words are fine. You just fail to understand that the millions of acreas of land that our country owns is worth something. According to your calculation, the value of what the federal government owns in land, and assets, a figure that is at least thousands of trillions, is simply ignored. Thus, you erroneously, like Sarah, believe our country is near bankruptcy. As I said earlier, if you do not like the China debt I am pretty sure that the Russians would be happy to assume it in exchange for Alaska. But then that would be a bad deal for us because there is probably 100 trillion in untapped natural resources there.

    I don’t think that is what they are saying at all. I believe they are equating some of the current administration’s economic policies such as HCR as socialist.

    The truth is, the China debt is very important to us, geo politically, because, though we are happy that China is doing better, etc., we still do not trust their leadership. The China debt is like a collar around China’s neck, and the US is holding the leash. How so? Simply put, China needs America to remain committed to its debt and any real funny business by the Chinese is therefore quite risky to them. They could not easily survive a US default. And unfortunately for China, we both know that.

    Indeed !!   If Palin, the Tea Party and the Republicans endorse Romney or Gingrich.., they are through.

    Ron Paul is not going to endorse Romney or Gingrich ( and why should he.., he is the superior candidate ). If there will be blame to go around.., it will be her and the religious right who can not see past Israel ( a country which is fully capable of taking care of itself.

    Actually if we started bringing the troops home from both wars and ended payments to company’s like Halliburton and allowed the Bush Tax Cuts to expire. But until the TPers get voted out we will have problems.For some reason they believe that allowing a Tax Cut to expire means it is really a tax increase.

    And here I thought that the Ethiopian Jews were black. And the Ashkenazi Jews were Russian, who move to Israel not because they are Jews but the fact that they’ll be given land to live on. Unfortunately, the land they get is Palestinian Land, 1967 borders.

    Come on , Palin, Trump, Gingrich, Bachmann…they call Obama socialist every day…read above…she said it again last night. Somehow when she taxed the oil companies and passed around the money, it was not socialism at all. Somehow when she got millions of dollars from the federal government for Alaska, that was not socialism either.

    It was good for Newt. Just like Palin profitting on lying about everything is good for….Sarah.

    Really? It’s the GOP who has blocked every jobs bill put forward. Every one. 
    Your government control meme belongs to the GOP…who is putting forward the personhood amendments? GOP. Who is taking over towns in Michigan with ‘emergency managers?’ the GOP. Who is making teachers out to be greedy slackers who need to give up their rights to a pension and health care unless they pay more? The GOP. Now, who wants us dependent on teh government again? That would be the GOP. 
      Who was responsible for the biggest growth in government? St. Ronnie. Who was responsible for driving us into debt? St. Ronnie and the Bushes. Who balanced the budget? Bill Clinton. Who trashed it? George.

    Good God. The man ran against Hillary. Do you not think that the Clintons would have found and used every skeleton in his closet? It’s really not our fault that you GOPers were asleep during the Democratic nominating process in 2007-08. Why don’t you crawl back into bed and let the grownups fix things again.

    So when does Israel have to stop killing Palestinians and encroaching on their land? Some democracy…they kill children, bomb homes, hold up water and food supplies…maybe you should find out what is really going on over there before you declare your undying support.

    Palin couldn’t be more correct.  Let’s see Romney and Newt when the audience is not a Conservative one.  Up to now Romney knows he has been talking to the “Choir”.  Let’s see what he has to say when he has to speak in front of those who aren’t laying out to pay the Bill to take down Obama.  The Reagan Democrats want to hear from Romney and Newt which side of the Tax Cut to the rich, Global Warming, and Medicare they are committing themselves.  However, Trump should announce he is not running for President before questioning his competition.

    Socialism is when you take from peter to pay paul aka “The American Relief Act” which took $1trillion tax payer dollars and paid big unions to do unneeded work/$500mill to solyndra/$500mill to Fisker car company(which took the money and moved shop to finland) and now the incumbant want’s to spend more tax payer money? The bank bailouts…that is socialist, and obama supported TARP. Also, I would love to opt out of SS/Medicare because the politicians dangle them over our heads and use them as a scare tactic. Also, they are taking money out of the trust funds. I know what to do with my own money, why should I pay into something that will not be there when it is time for me to benifit? Also, you have to pay for a plot in a cemetary so I really got a good look at your IQ. Another thing, TSA/Homland security/doj are crooks. DOJ launderd $300+mill to drug cartels while smuggling them thousands of weapons. TSA treats every American like a criminal and walks all over our bill of rights, and homland security wasn’t there before bush, why do we need it now? And I can make a pretty good argument that the CIA causes more harm than good. The Shaw of Iran is a good example. Oh lets not forget the pupet government in Egypt. Can’t leave out the puppet Saddam, or Gaddafi…all installed by the Crooks In Action. Also, the military is to defend the USA, how is that socialist? You have BEEN BRAIN WASHED!

    Roger Ailes should require her to come on set at least once a month for the $1 million she pulls in salary. As well as requiring her to look not like someone who just rolled out of bed. Even on FoxNewsSunday 5 months ago, she appeared on screen. That’s a lot of money to pay an idiot who steels the talking points of other Fox Commentators. I still can’t figure why Ailes gave her a contract through 2013. She’s a freakin joke.

    You believe Sarah Palen to be a fool, so if she says something right, you reject it
    because of your preconcieved notion.There is an old saying that goes, Even a fool can give good advice. Well, I believe that Sarah was not cut out to be a politician
    but based on her ability to make money I would not say she was a fool either. The
    fools are those who do not recognise good advice when they hear it. Ron Paul knows that if the country continues on the present path that your money will become as valuable as that of the Weimar Republic in the mid 1920′s which was essentially zero. You could buy nothing with it and that is what he is trying to save us from.
    He is not in it for the money or the fame. He is a humble honest, highly intelligent
    person that I would trust with my life. I could not say that about any of the others because of what they have done or said in the past. If you care about your Children
    and their future, Ron Paul is the only person to vote for,

    The fact that you can point out a very corrupt Republican does not excuse a very corrupt Democrat and if he is one degree less corrupt does not mean that he should not be removed from his position. As the highest officer of the court he should be impecabable but he is so corrupt  that he would not even qualify as a janitor on a civil service job and by chance if he was a janitor and knew of this illlegal gun running they would lock him up and throw the key away so why should he be treated differently. He should not be..

  • et

    Your thinking ability matches your username very well. It really is baaaaad.
    Only a Collectivist/Communist would look at the Constitution with such disdain. The regulations that we pay big tax dollars for and then watch industry bribe the regulators so nothing is done anyway would go away but that would not leave the violators free to polute as there would be private law
    suits if a person is damaged. That is how it is supposed to work. You already have robber barrons in this system. Under the strict application of the constitution, you will not be locked up, you will have your rights and they will be protected. Unlike it is today as a 14th amendment US corporate citizen.
    You have been misinformed all of your life and want to stick with the only thing you know but you are sitting on a stick of dynamite with a lit fuse and don’t see it coming. The only down side to honest free market capitalism, you can not vote to have government steal from your neighbor and give it to you, You will have to actually work. A new concept for sure.

    Corzine was the governor of New Jersey! He has elected officials all over him. He’s a liberal and a Democrat so he’s allowed.  Did he confront corruption in his state or contribute to it. But as a private citizen, joke, he’s still corrupt afterall he knows he’s protected by the media and Eric Holder’s partisan justice department. Typical among Democrats, accuse other of what they master in doing.
