A Strong Defense Starts with Secure Borders
U.S. Border Guards are currently sent overseas to places like Iraq while our own borders remain porous and vulnerable. As president, I would make securing our bor-ders against a possible terrorist threat the top defense priority. No one seeking to do us harm should be allowed to cross our borders.
What Happened to Capturing Osama bin Laden?
I would refocus the efforts of our military and intelligence services on locating those individuals who planned the attacks on the U.S. and who remain at large. It must be made clear that the United States cannot be attacked with impunity.
No More Nation-Building.
It’s Time to Protect America.
While we keep our focus on Iraq indefinitely, bin Laden remains free to plot his next attack, and can continue to portray us as occupiers and recruit more volunteers to his cause. A foreign policy of non-interventionism will be the first step in reducing threats to the U.S. It will also enable us to focus our resources where they belong: in defense of the United States and the American people.
FOR A STRONG NATIONAL DEFENSE
1 (877) RON-PAUL

Authorized and paid for by Ron Paul 2008 PCC
Ron Paul has received more donations from active duty and retired military than any other presidential candidate. (FEC Records)
Congressman Ron Paul is serving his 10th term in the U.S. House. Dr. Paul has delivered over 4,000 babies as an OB/GYN. He served his country as a Flight Surgeon in the Air Force and the Air National Guard. Ron has been married to his wife Carol for 50 years, and they have five children, 18 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
Ron Paul Will:
- Issue letters of marque and reprisal, naming private sources who can capture or kill our enemies. This method works in conjunction with our military efforts, creating an incentive for people on the ground close to bin Laden to kill or capture him and his associates.
- Allow pilots and specially assigned law enforcement personnel to carry firearms in order to protect airline passengers. Pilots must have the choice to carry weap-ons as a last line of defense against future hijacking attempts.
- Prohibit the issuance of student, training, vocational, and diversity visas without presidential review to anyone from a country that repeatedly supports terrorism or does not cooperate fully with U.S. antiterrorism efforts.
- End our interventionist foreign policy and follow the Founders’ advice to have, “Peace, commerce, and hon-est friendship with all nations – entangling alliances with none.”
An America-first defense policy will not go abroad seeking monsters to slay, but will deter through strength and lead by example.
