Former Rep. Ron Paul is lashing out at Ted Cruz, calling the GOP presidential contender too close to Wall Street.
"People are liking Cruz. They think he's for the free market, and he's owned by Goldman Sachs," the former Texas lawmaker said on Fox Business Network's "Varney & Company," according to Politico.
"I mean, he and [Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton] have more in common than we would have with either Cruz or [Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump] or any of them so I just don't think there is much picking," Paul added.

I don’t know, plenty of people around here are willing to give credence to Jimmy Carter including St Ted.
At least Ron Paul is not Jimmah!
“Pretend libertarian”?
Who else speaks for libs except RoPaul? Who else is the better example of what a libertarian is except RoPaul?
The Clintons are probably worth $150 million or more.
The $760,000 is pocket change for the lady who campaigns on income inequality, of which she is very knowledgeable.
So, Goldman Sachs made him filibuster against 0bamaCare?
Go, Goldman Sachs!
I guess it is a lot easier to lob stones sitting back on top of the fence.
Somebody needs to let this old fool know his boy is no longer in the race after he got his ass beat by Ted Cruz.
So sit down and stfu old man, your boy is a loser.
I would add GS's 71K is a small fraction of Cruz's 40 million dollar PACs.
How idiotic. Trump is the guy who supported the TARP bailout of the banks.
Read post #27 if you want to talk about pocket change.
The NutCase is still with us!
“Somebody needs to let this old fool know his boy is no longer in the race after he got his ass beat by Ted Cruz.”
Oh he knows. Hence the screed.
Old Crank is more accurate.
Rand/Ron... what’s the difference?
Like my daddy used to say; “The nut don’t fall far from the tree”.
Ron Paul the “Libertarian” that never passed on a full meal of PORK!
Suffering from ButtHurt for his boy.
I wish someone would offer some evidence of this "ownership".
I swear I've never seen so many absolutely fact-free accusations leveled at one guy.
Related to Hitler?
Hahahaha
As Danny Blather once proclaimed it’s not the facts of the case, but rather the seriousness of the allegation that matters.
The thing that get’s me is I didn’t realize there were so many “conservatives” that agreed with that mindset.
“It’s interesting that Goldman Sachs is giving its money to other candidates.”
Isn’t it though...they give to Hillary, LOTS to Jeb...in fact they give to ALL the open border candidates.

He warned you that they would come at him with everything and anything they could come up with before the Caucus in Iowa. It appears the Press has given up on Bush and gone full throttle for the Cuban Con Man-Marco Rubio.
