Ron Paul has the strongest understanding of the economic problems we face, we are in a financial crisis, so on that front he would be the most qualified also. The foreign policy is not to invade other countries with miltarism but to talk with them and have diplomatic relations. You prefer drone bombs..ok we have a disagreement. I happen to think that positive diplomatic and trade relations are better then military invasions. I would say that most people would agree on this actually, only neocons like karl rove would disagree. Foreign policy is the issue that most people agree with on and an issue that separates him from the other candidates.
To say that your in the majority as far as NOT wanting to bring the the troops home, I strongly disagree, most people want the troops to come home in my experience.

We have amazing trade relations...are you blind? Have you ever wondered WHY?!?!?! Umm...the dollar is the WORLDS reserve currency and safe international trade is guaranteed by the presence of the US Navy in international waters. The two, since Bretton-Woods, have been HOW we have managed what we have here today: the highest standard of living of a major power ever seen in history. So, even if RP "preferred diplomatic relations" (which the US has
how many fucking embassies across the world, the most in the world, btw), he would still depend on the US Navy to make sure that trade wasn't interrupted. You want to "bring the troops" home, great, admirable, but complete sloganeering that will never happen. Whether you agree with it or not, the US is the WORLD'S PROTECTOR. Since 1991, there has been, and will be no other. No other country can even come close to providing what the US does for the rest of the world....and the best part: Most countries FUCKING LOVE US for it.
