Paul is really a libertarian, but just going under a republican banner- I'd 
really label him more a 'progressive' (one of the few) - He and Kucinich (as in 
candidates)  are the only ones who arent corporate sell out boys. 

I actually redid my voting status (as many others did)  so I could vote for 
Paul- He's probably our only hope. Everyone in the  'in the know scene' here all 
holds Paul in the highest degree. This is the first i'm hearing (outside of just 
mainstream head scratchers) that anyone thinks Paul is a 'loon'.
 Like you said-once you really give him some time and see what he's about, it 
makes sense- not saying one is going to agree with all his points. 

 I've met him, spoke with him on some matters and have it planned at some point 
to do an article with him on the Federal Reserve. 


I'm doing a story now on how the Food safety modernization act (implemented 
under the Obama era) basically puts the FDA in a position to shut down all small 
farms and organics if it wanted to. The feds can now go and shut a farm down, 
just with a suspicion, not even with any actual proof- the farm then has to pay 
with its own money (which would cripple them to close down) to defend itself 
against biased fda law judges- 

so we wanted "Change", we got it. 

 It's Ron Paul who sets up a special lobbying day and reception for us to go 
into senate (about a month ago) and speak out about this bill  to 
our representatives. The year before, he came down to the after reception 
and showed support -- He was fresh off the floor given a now famous speech about 
this war being such bullshit and the whole WMD thing (as you mentioned)- 


He's actually pretty punk.

Someone I know and have come to respect over many long conversations mentioned a 
speech by Ron Paul that he felt was spot on.  I was so surprised that I had to 
check he was talking about the Republican senator.  Anyway, seeing my disbelief, 
he sent me a link, and I watched the speech.  Remarkably, the man was talking a 
lot of sense.  I didn't agree with some of his conclusions - and I was also 
aware that there were areas where I just didn't know enough to agree or 
disagree.  But he certainly wasn't the loon that I'd always assumed him to be.  
(I was particularly surprised to hear him say that the Iraqi weapons of mass 
destruction thing was a lie.)
