What I'm trying to explain Paint, is that the only way to meet what seems to be your idea of self defense is not practical, or effective, or even defense. If you feel that Ron Paul's anti-war stance would lead to a situation where the US might be able to meet this definition, you're being naive, and this isn't at all what Ron Paul is talking about when he puts forward his "anti-war" positions. Ron Paul is "anti-war" just like the rest of the candidates, which is to say that he is against wars he does not agree with, not all war.
Political doublespeak. "I'm anti war, but pro defense". Meant to drag the net across both sides of a hot button issue, which obviously, it has.
