Ron Paul like Ann Rand is a purist and he tends to take things to the extreme, that is fine for a author/congressman but presidents have to deal with the real world. And in the real world things are complicated. Libertarians annoy the heck out of me, but I'll take them over Marxists any day. At least Ron Paul knows that he stands for and why he stands for constitutional government. I like that in the man, but president, I don't think so.

I was making specific points about Ron, basically challenging untrue points, not trying to make a case for him.

(Pure) Libertarians like liberals live in imaginary world and Ron has many points that make no sense.

On the other hand he will say important things relating to the Federal Reserve that the RINO party wont because they are part of the system
