When you find an instance of Dwigfht Eisenhower giving aid to an enemy of the Republic during wartime, you can go ahead and compare Paul to Ike. Until then, Paul is the kooky traitor and Ike is the guy who won the European half of WWII. Try to keep them straight.
That is why I brought up Eisenhower, who also mentioned the military industrial complex. My post had nothing to do with comparing them or with WWII, or anything else you mentioned. Try to keep that straight.
