There isn't that much a president can really do about this issue except nominate pro life judges to the supreme court and support pro life bills from Congress which Ron Paul would clearly do.

Would Paul support a bill from the Congress defining the beginning of life at conception (which would overturn Roe v. Wade)? Let me doubt it. Such an act would make illegal stem cell research, and things like in vitro fertilization and the morning after pill, which again, Paul supports.

The way the US system works is for decisions like abortion to be decided on a state to state basis and not at the federal level.

That's not true, abortion is murder and the US constitution says it protects life, so it should be illegal at the federal level. The problem is that your Constitution (as all the other liberal Constitutions) is interpreted freely by politicians and judges.

If you see the 'system' as the US foreign policy. Then yes, Ron Paul is fighting the system. If you see the 'system' as something more, then they're all working for the system. But there's one guy that says that abortion from the moment of conception is murder and should be illegal.
