It was a big moment for Rep. Ron Paul, R-Tex, and his presidential candidacy when he appeared in late October on the Tonight Show, sandwiched between Tom Cruise and the Sex Pistols.
But Paul will take his libertarian-tinged Republican ethos in another direction Tuesday, when he marches straight into the henhouse.
He'll appear opposite Whoopi, Barbara Walters, Joy Behar and Kate Walsh of Gray's Anatomy and Private Practice fame, who co hosting in the absence of Elizabeth Hasselbeck on ABC's woman-oriented chat show 'The View' Tuesday.
Its unlikely that the Texas OB-Gyn has ever himself seen The View. He doesn't watch much TV and says he has never watched a reality TV show. Paul is more knowledgeable about the Austrian School of Economics and why the United Sates Treasury should not be printing money, odd topics about which to crow on The View.
The other guest on Tuesday's episode of The View will be Abigail Breslin, the child star.
Paul is not the first Presidential candidate to appear on the show, but he will apparently be the first Republican.
In October, Sen. Hillary Clinton kicked off a week-long "Women Changing America Tour" with an appearance on the show.

Some of the responses here are pathetic. Ron Paul goes on The View and articulates a pro-life message and all the people here can do is mock the guy? Drop your petty dislike of the man for one moment and congratulate him on a job well done. It’s a good thing that Ron Paul spreads the message of life to people who otherwise aren’t inclined to hear it, be they The View cast, watchers at home, or even Paul’s liberal college support when he speaks at campuses.
He also articulated a message of surrender to the islamofascists.
I would personally PAY to see Jesus pwn the women of The View, but I guess we’ll have to disagree on this one.
I’d personally vote for Ron Paul if he were pro-Victory.
Personally, if I were President Bush, I would fire the neocons in the administration. Those war-lovers are nothing but trouble. Victory in Iraq and, hopefully, a peaceful conclusion to the Iran crisis are what I would strive for once the neocons are asking people if they want fries with that.
