Growing up in rural parts of the American West, Nadja Adolf’s libertarian streak developed early on.
“When you come from a countryside that can kill you,” said Adolf, a Muslim convert in her late 50s, “there is a strong emphasis on individual rights, a strong emphasis on self-reliance, and an emphasis on helping each other out.”
That attitude is part of the reason Adolf is drawn to the presidential campaign of Ron Paul, the maverick Republican congressman from Texas who is fighting to stay alive in the Republican primaries.
While some political observers question whether Paul has the staying power and widespread appeal to win the nomination, his campaign has proven unique in one respect: he’s drawing serious support from Muslims.
After abandoning the GOP in droves during the George W. Bush presidency, some Muslims say Paul is the kind of Republican who could draw them back and seriously challenge their loyalty to President Obama.
Adolf, who converted to Islam in May 2001, learned about Paul in 2004 during the congressman’s opposition to the Patriot Act, which he argued allows the government the right to spy on citizens. Paul also opposed the National Defense Authorization Act, which was recently signed into law by Obama and allows the government to indefinitely imprison U.S. citizens suspected, but not proven guilty, of terrorist activity.
“I’m a fairly old-school rural Westerner, and I am a firm believer in individual rights, and I do not understand how a government can even pretend to have the power to detain a citizen or spy on them without warrant,” said Adolf.
Paul, a 76-year-old Baptist, couldn’t agree more....

Sounds like a ringing endorsement.
Well right there would end it for me with him. Plus the senile old fool is like what, 76? The pressure of being the POTUS would kill him in a week.
First Stormfront now CAIR. WOO-HOO!!!
You can’t pick your fans, but you gotta wonder why they like you.
I do not doubt it based on everything this loon says, however do you have another link to a different site for this information.
Of course they would love Boris Karloff, he would never go to war with them and he would stop aid to Israel. This is no surprise. We can always send him to Pakistan....one way.
Did you mean knell, or was that a grassy knoll reference?
The Paulbot Libertarians will go ahead and vote for him regardless of who endorses him.
A Muslim named Adolf endorses Ron Paul.. LOL, you can’t make this up. Are you sure this isn’t a DFU parody?
And the part about muslims leaving GW is pure fantasy. They never were and will never be for anyone who protects America.
There are a couple of ‘conspiracy websites’ that have worried me for quite a while....with their their hatred of Jews and so-called “Zionism” and anything they consider “Masonic”. Infiltration? Possibly.

TORONTO — As if it wasn’t enough that they want to blow up all the “Crusaders” and “Zionists,” now al-Qaeda has apparently chosen a new target: Freemasons.
A “secret” Canadian intelligence study newly-released to the National Post describes how Islamist conspiracy theorists have seen the enemy and it is freemasonry.
“Islamist extremists and the Freemasons” is the actual title of a Canadian Security Intelligence Service intelligence assessment distributed in December 2009.
It says extremist ideologues have taken Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code and the Nicholas Cage film National Treasure as evidence of a conspiracy against Islam.
They have been telling youths that Freemasons are: anti-Muslim; have close ties to Israel; and have been conducting secret paramilitary operations in Europe.
While most rational thinkers can tell fact from fiction, CSIS warns that we should not have such high expectations for the cave-dwelling sages at al-Qaeda HQ........
I assume it mainly came from the CAIR Twitter post and from facebook pages.
I can’t imagine why a devout isolationist would appeal to billions of Muslims across the planet, that hated the United States since it would sometimes stand up to them.
Eliminating that threat wouldn’t appeal to them? Why not?
This is why I think of him as Ron Small.
CAIR, Code Pinkos, OWS.....RuPaul could certainly challenge DUh-bama for the ANTI-AMERICAN vote!
There is no way you can make this stuff up! The KKK, Nazis and the Muzzies are Paulbots!
CAIR + Ron Paul = perfect match of loons.
