"He championed the Constitution, sound money and liberty like no other "
WASHINGTON Honoring one of the most inspiring and principled political careers in contemporary American politics, culminating in an extraordinary farewell address upon his recent announced retirement from the House of Representatives, WND has named U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, as its Man of the Decade.
In addition to his primary focus of keeping government within the confines of the Constitution, Pauls legacy will prominently feature his unwavering dedication to audit and ultimately abolish the Federal Reserve in a decades-long effort to restore Americas economy and monetary system to sound, constitutional principles.
He took no prisoners and abided by no political party dictates while trying to push America back to the ideas of its Founding Fathers regarding privacy, responsibility, limited government and freedom.
Pauls interest in politics developed in 1971, while he was still working as an OBGYN during the Nixon administration, when the United States went off the gold standard.
It was overall the whole thing about free market economics, individual liberties and the foreign policy it was my deep conviction that we were [going] in the wrong direction, he told WND.
Pauls rise into politics after these revelations.....

Better deserved than Times’ ‘man of the year’, that’s for sure!!
Thank you, Ron Paul, I learned a lot from you.
bfl
He is labeled as a low spender, but he sure can earmark plenty of dollars and send them back to Texas. He used our federal tax dollars as his campaign slush fund. He’s a joke. Too many people hear his words but don’t follow his actions. He’s as big a part of the problem as Nosh and most of the rest of these career types. They talk as conservatives, but blow our money. They may cut taxes, but they still keep spending.
Putting the “Nut” in World Nut Daily.
Ron Paul couldn't do that.
He voted for sodomy in the US military. Nothing more needs to be said about Ron Paul.
Problem with Ron is he’s all substance and no style.
LMAO...
