Nowhere in this statement does Paul indicate the writer was fired. I wonder where the above poster got his material. In fact, judging by the above denial, Paul would/should have no executive authority to fire anyone under the circumstances as stated. The whole implication being that whoever did this did so beyond the scope of Paul's control.

And not beyond the scope on his control over one or two issue, but a decade and a half to newsletter sales.

‘ghost writer's’ writing over more than a decade, not ‘ghost writer’, singular.

Why hasn't he identified them? Presuming they're supporters, why haven't they come forward to take him off the hook?

You take my point to another level. 'Presuming they're supporters' is almost academic. If they weren't, Ron Paul would have quashed this at the beginning. And since Ron Paul himself admits he's denounced this for over a decade, their coming out now to take the blame would look like what it would be; a cover up.
