Ron Paul is an isolationist.

No he's not. Perhaps you may want to look at the definition of isolationism. Rep. Paul believes in trade with all and conversations with all. He's been quite clear on that. Because historically that's how you can change a nation's bent (i.e. Vietnam)

I see nothing inconsistent with my characterization of him as an isolationist in the military sense, which is exactly what I meant.

Iraq and the Middle East is not Vietnam. It has not been from day one, as much as some people in this country would like it to be.
