Laurie, a. k. a. my better three-fifths recently invested some Internet hours in search of the truth about 10-term Republican Congressman Ron Paul of Texas. The woman is relentless when on a quest. A new Oreck vacuum could never keep up with her capacity for gathering information. Paul’s philosophy intrigued her because he appeared to be the only presidential candidate genuinely devoted to states’ rights, upholding the Constitution and getting growing federal intrusions out of American lives.

Congressman Ron Paul now has twice as many YouTube subscribers as all of the other Republican candidates for president combined. Here are the numbers: Paul - 12,103 Romney - 2,059 Giuliani - 1,429 McCain - 1,291 Hunter - 413 Huckabee - 342 Tancredo - 211 Brownback - 111 Gilmore - 60 Thompson - 0 Total - 5,916 Congressman Paul also has twice as many YouTube subscribers as Barack Obama who has 5,988, and nearly four times as many as Hillary Clinton who has 3,517 subscribers.
