To Paul, freedom “is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference,” and any government involvement in a citizen’s life is “inherently coercive.”

Well, at least Ron Paul wants to go to war against somebody — too bad that somebody is our federal gov’t
To: MNJohnnie
You were looking for concrete proposals, this article goes into some nice detail and specifics about some things.

well, at least one candidate has it right that the Federal Government is our number 1 enemy, IMO.

The United States would be out of the United Nations. The U.S. Supreme Court wouldn’t be messing with state law. The Federal Reserve and World Bank would disappear. And there would no longer be background checks to buy handguns. And should the Texas Republican win the White House, as he’s trying to do now, the war in Iraq would end, as would the “War on Drugs” and the “War on Pain Relief.” Iran would be safe from U.S. attack. The Patriot Act would be history. Federal spending would fall dramatically as government bureaucracy (including the Pentagon) was slashed.
While running around being the world's policeman is a bad idea, withdrawing into a shell and pretending that the outside world no longer exists would be a recipe for disaster, both economically and militarily.
Further proof of just how out of touch Ron Paul is with modern day realities.

You do realize our military is part of the federal gov't and right this second they are defending your right to post asinine comments like the one above.
To: vbmoneyspender
Ron Paul is from the government, and he is here to help.

To: traviskicks
Paul is spot on with the minutae, but misses the #1 point of the Federal Government - to provide for the Common Defense. And in 2007 that means against Muslimist terrorism. A President who unilaterally dismisses use of the military to fight this enemy is not a serious candidate.
We could use about 230 Ron Pauls in the House and 51 in the Senate, but the White House isn't the place for him.

the Federal Government is our number 1 enemyThanks, Noam Chomsky.
I hope America's fighting forces appreciate your view that they - federal employees all - are "our" enemy.

To: traviskicks
To Paul living in freedom means to appease all of our enemies enough that they will not bother us. Then when that does not work we must surrender.
