Not a Ron Paul fan but I myself have said that the attacks on him are the wrong way to go.
He’s a symptom of a problem that the GOP doesn’t want to face and eliminating him won’t make the problem go away.
I have said Ron Paul would be the perfect candidate if he just understood the nature of Islam and looked at defense as something other than looking for warships with sails and cannons attacking the coast. Times have changed since then.
Ron would have to understand those days are long past. He needs to get that.
