Interview of Ron Paul on Fox News Sunday. Paul did an excellent job.
Ron acquitted himself very well in this interview & as of now, I think he's the only one likely to do the very radical things necessary to reign in Big Gov't. I know his chances are slim, but there it is...
I agree, Paul did an excellent job with that interview. I was particularly impressed with Wallace allowing him to talk.
I, too, enjoyed Paul’s interview. He is so refreshing. His foresightedness and his age work against his electability to the Presidency.
Mark Belling subbed for Rush last week. He had an excellent suggestion: if a Repub is elected President, he should name Ron Paul as the Director of the Federal Reserve. Simply genius.
I’d put him almost anywhere in the next Administration - maybe even chief of staff, so he can be sitting right there telling Perry or whoever what is constitutional & what we ought to be doing!
I still like the idea of Team America - choose one to be President & VP & then each of our candidates pick a cabinet post they’d most like to deal with. All of them have their strong & weak points. We need a unified force to go against Obama.
I know. It’s a nutty idea, would never happen. But still...
Fantastic job Ron Paul.
I hadn’t heard that idea - I think it’s excellent. Sarah Palin for Secretary of Energy. Paul Ryan as economic advisor. And, of course, my favorite, (again) Ron Paul as Director of the Fed Reserve. After watching his interview yesterday (Ron Paul), I’d like him to double up, do the Fed, but also be Director of FEMA (he he).
So do you really think we were attacked because of our Freedom?

The problem with Ron Paul is that he’s surrounded by serious kooks and he does not always know where the edge of the cliff is in the fog of kookdom they create.
Guarenteed, if he got power the kooks would hate his guts within two months.
I agree.
If Ron Paul blames the victims who died in 9-11, thats news to me. All Ive ever heard or read about Paul and 911 that it was he said is was blowback, from our Mideast policies .
Precisely. But what should you believe? Your own eyes & ears or the demagoguery against Ron Paul? Many on FR would wish you to believe the latter.
When Ronald Reagan said in his memoirs that he most regretted losing those 200 soldiers in Lebanon and that he should have "stayed out of the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics", Ronald Reagan was a great statesman and hero. When Ron Paul promotes that same policy of staying out of the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics, then he's supposedly to be considered as "anti-Israel" and "a surrender monkey".
You can't argue with that kind of blind vitriol that defies reason.
