If one were to actually listen to what he has to say, you'ld come to realize that the certain policy changes he talks about has everything to do with the economy ..
While Paul is strong on the fudamental economic problem of The FED, I think Paul is weak on bringing back manufacturing, business development and job growth plans. At least, I haven't heard him speak on those specifically other than to say "free market". Has he addressed China at all?
Politicians do not bring back manufacturing, develop businesses or plan job growth. People do that and they do best in an environment free from crime and government

Reason: rude
This nation is going down the toilet and you're worried about charisma? ..
The "real problem" is that no one bothers to really listen to what he has to say ..
No, Paul does not have charisma. No, Paul is not
warm and fuzzy. But I would wager to say,
our earliest presidents, or even Lincoln, for that
matter, was not the life of the party. But Paul has
a message - listen

I'm a realist and I understand that the "American Idol" youth-zombies who voted in the last election, or may be voting in the next one for the first time, they will likely not hear any message if it is not delivered with charisma.
Actually Paul has quite the youth following.
Maybe they are smarter than you think
I saw he had a following of 30 somethings in 2008. I can't say I saw many 18-25 yr. olds. Obam on the otherhand had a significant portion of the youth vote. So, how does Paul capture that? How does he capture the vote he missed out on in 2008 beyond those who have finally woken up and are fed up with both the RINOs and Progressive Democrats?

Your right, it was the youth vote that pushed
obama over the top in 2008.
Obama has already lost that vote when he just continued the policies of Bush.
The ones that voted for him last time, have now
graduated from college. Graduated to no jobs,
graduated to continued wars, and new ones.
Graduated to a larger deficit.
A recent Harvard Political Review Poll of young, likely-to-vote Americans, Obama’s approval rating is down nearly 20 points from January 2009. Additionally, according to this poll, nearly 40% of young Americans believe the country is generally on the wrong track.
