I have to admit that I kind of like Rep. Ron Paul. Partly it's that we're both from Pittsburgh, and both began our careers as paperboys for the Pittsburgh Press. More important, Paul is something unusual in politics. He appears to believe in something. His fundamental views have not changed since 1971, when he decided to run for Congress in Texas because President Nixon abandoned the gold standard.
I do not think he will run,people are looking for someone younger that has the values,ideas and principle that Paul has.His followers are getting behind some House and Senate candidiates,trying to elect those who's views are close to Paul's.
Ron paul only runsd as a republican for the money and the organizatinal support it give him. Domesticall he makes Goldwater look like a liberal. he is bascailly a wallace staes rihgts candidate but ven walllace din't want to abloish most of the federal agencies.He is old islationist reublican from pre WWII ;on foreign ploicy but then at that time the USA was not teh leader of the westerm world.

He's not really an isolationist. He encourages trade and peaceful relations with other nations. Non-interventionist is the word.

I have to admit that Ron Paul seems to be the most honest politician. That is why he is a pariah.
