There is nothing to refute. None of what you said is even linked to Ron Paul.
You're the only one stuck on your claims.
Look at the links i posted, they show the original scans, from 1978 up to the early 90's. It was HIS newsletter, and he even admitted that.
But they're not his opinions.
When you're a fringe candidate, you're going to get supporters from the fringe. That doesn't make the candidate responsible for everything they say.
And right, wrong, or indifferent, they have the right to speak as much as anyone else, whether you might like what they have to say or not.
Here's an analogy... some people here don't like me because I tend to be confrontational and mock and be sarcastic to be people with silly, extremist, or strongly partisan opinions. But OTOH, I would never think to silence them. From Stormfront to the communist party, they have the right to speak regardless of whether I like what they have to say or not.
However, there are people who would like to silence such speech, either directly or (even worse) indirectly by holding people not actually responsible for such speech accountable by proxy, like you're doing here. And those are the people that I really don't like.
