“A politician isn’t answerable for the antics of every one of his supporters. But there’s surely a reason, isn’t there, that racists, anti-Semites, 9/11 Truthers, and Holocaust deniers are so strongly attracted to the Paul campaign. They hear something. They continue to hear it too, no matter how firmly Ron Paul’s more mainstream supporters clamp their hands over their own ears.”

A similiar thing happened back in 1948.

Henry A Wallace was running for President as the Progressive Party nominee. Wallace was not a Communist but held views that were looked kindly upon by Communists. During the entire campaign, he was asked whether he disavowed the support of Communists. he refused to do so.

In 2011 and 2012, Paul has refused to disavow the support of Truthers, anti-Semites and Stormfront members.

It’s amazing how history keeps repeating itself.
