Fed Foe Ron Paul Breakfasts With Bernanke at Central Bank ...

“He’s for the gold standard now,” joked Mr. Paul.
Too funny!

There was a comment someone posted recently comparing Paul's decision to change strategies and announce that he was in the way he did (leaving everyone wondering what was going on) to an internationally famous chess player and a particular chess competition. He also added that he would not want to play Paul in chess.

I also saw a comment from someone that said by having Paul at state conventions there would be a calming effect on the crowds. People would behave better and more delegates would be impressed by him and that would have an overall positive effect on the choosing of delegates for Paul.

If Paul is at the California and the Texas State Conventions, do you think the GOP establishment will try and pull what they have in every state so far?


I can see Paul pulling the microphone away from the Chairman and finding the circuit breaker to turn the lights back on!

The timing, and what was in the memo, and some other related events I find very odd. So I do think something is up, just everybody will have to keep guessing til new information surfaces.
