You’re really sticking with the GOP establishment? We’ll have to part ways here. In the recent absence of true conservatism, my lurking libertarianism has reared it’s head, so I’m somewhat reluctantly supporting Ron Paul.

Ron Paul is not a “libertarian” he is a kook fringe candidate who has no hope of being elected. He has no business experience, and if you had followed the “investment” advice that he has peddled since the 1970’s you would be ahead less than the rate of inflation. Now if you had followed Romney’s lead, you would be a millionaire.

Now if you really want to be a millionaire by following Ron Paul’s advice, follow his foreign policy. The only problem is that the millions would be the dead bodies of our friends across the Globe.

Even if I am dead wrong in my assessment of his policies foreign and domestic, Ron Paul has no constituency in the Congress, the Executive or the Judicial branches from which to govern. Being President is about governing, and you cannot do that alone.
