Watch this interview. Its from 2007. I agree with him even though he is a republican . And I have to express my disdain about O'Reilly. He is so rude to Ron Paul. It is rude to not let people finish their sentence. I think he is pissed because Ron Paul basically has a different opinion on everything they discuss.

I think Ron Paul is seriously underrated. Or rather, I think he has been purposefully marginalized by the GOP and its supporters. They fear what they cannot control.

I like Ron Paul. He can get a bit wordy though. I do enjoy watching him grill Ben Bernake on the misuse of government money. Bernake never, ever flinches.

I agree with Paul on a lot of points but I also disagree with him on some points... comparing him to McCain/Obama... he is smarter than the both of them... but smarter doesn't necessarily means better... I would of wish Obama had reached out to Paul for advice but I think Obama is too ideologically prejudiced to do that...

He said "Al Quaida is growing because of our policy, the national security is threatened because of our policy." How do other republicans view him when his opinion is so unconventional?
I personally think he sees the big picture and he is absolutely right.

you do not live in our country and are basing your comments on one interview.

One interview or not ... going into someone elses country (house) and making policy (throwing the funiture around and spanking your kids) should be met with a resistance.

I suppose that if someone came into your house and started to boss you around and attemped to divorce you from your comfort and family, you would be fine with that?

Leave these other nations to their muse. The best way to disarm a spoiled child is to ignore him ... "Our Policies Do Make Things Worse". They would have no need to have to fight back if we weren't over there fighting them.

Why is it relevant that I don't live on your country?
Don't you and any other American have the right to speak about foreign politicians like Sarkozy or Kim Il-Sung?
Second, why do you think I am basing my comment on one interview?
I like what he said about Health Care (even though I have a different opinion...but I liked how he explained his views), too. Its not in the interview, that is why I didn't comment on it.

I Second that

In fact right now, ANY of the third party candidates would have been a VAST improvement over both McCain and Obama since we know that things would be no better under McCain. At least they all believed in repealing the Patriot Act, fiscal responsibility and protecting our liberties.
