I'm sure Ayn would have been grateful to see government money spend on ceremonies, monopoly post stamps memorializing her ideas & influence - by big-spending, ideological poseurs.
Ron Paul is the only person fit to participate
Rand visited the White House at least once (to see President Ford,) and was an avid collector of postage stamps from around the world. I don't think she would mind.
Ron Paul is foursquare against our involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, while Ayn Rand championed our military strength and our soldiers. Rand was a Taft Republican, not a libertarian in any sense, as she made it plain during her life.
