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

You were looking for concrete proposals, this article goes into some nice detail and specifics about some things.

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.

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.

I agree with this. Americans should be much more involved in preserving their own liberty.

I think Paul as a congresscritter can be more effective in furthering the cause of liberty and freedom than he could ever be as President. I only wish he was my congressman.

We give government the permission to use violence to enforce our laws.

Other than for defense against thieves and violent aggressors, he sees little or no need for violence, or the delegated violence of government.

Paul reminds us of fundamental principles. Good for him.

Fred Thompson says this is how fundraising should be reported. I agree. I hope Fred (and the other candidates) start doing these kind of live reports via internet too.

[Ron] Paul says Americans' freedoms under siege

Well, if Ron said it, it can't be true so don't give it another thought.

Of course, Paul want to be sure that our freedoms don’t “offend Islam.”
