Dr Paul challenge any candidates to ride a 20 miles in 100F heat in Houston to see who is older. I guarantee there will be no taker.

My Lord, that man looks great. Ride a bike 20 miles in 100 degrees? Unbelievable stamina. Most half his age wouldn't think of doing such a thing - I won't even walk my dogs in this heat. Ron Paul is awesome!

I was wondering, "ride what?" then I watched the linked video - a bicycle.

I kind of expected he'd propose riding a horse or his "velocipede".

And Chris Christie riding a bike 20 miles in 100 F, 100% Houston humidity? Maybe Paul is just hoping to winnow down the competition.

Well, that changes everything. Everybody knows that a candidate's ability to ride a bicycle in the heat is directly correlated to his/her decision-making skills.

What does it has anything to do with decision making skills? Because the only thing that these people can come out as negative for Dr Paul is his age. If you can beat this old man's challenge, then just **** on this old crap.

Same thing happen for Jersey governor Christie, the only thing that his opponents can come up with is he is fat. Sure he is fat, but he is the best governor that NJ has in the last 30 or so years.

Nothing. You seem to have grasped the point, well done.
