But Ron Paul didn’t want to declare war on AlQaeda either.

We don't declare war on ideologies or cliques. Wars are decleared, by definition, on nation states.

“We don’t declare war on ideologies or cliques. Wars are decleared, by definition, on nation states.”

Ron Paul used that rationale to justify the fact that he didn’t want to declare war on Alqaeda. His nutty solution was Letters of Marque and Reprisal.
