President Ron Paul

[drewkitty]

Rep. Ron Paul from Texas is running for President. He had a rally here in Mountain View, CA on Saturday that didn't make the media. You see, he's not considered a "viable" candidate although he kicked quite a bit of ass in the Presidential debates. A thousand people still showed up.

He's got a bunch of qualifications:

He's a strict Constitutionalist.

He wants the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Education abolished.

He's pro-individual and anti big government.

He's viciously attacked the Republicans for departing their conservative roots.

Last but not least . . . he's been against the Iraq adventure from the very beginning

Finally, the Washington Post has written an article on him.

I don't agree with him on some of his ideas and positions.

So what?

He's a man of integrity and honor in a country that is critically short on both.

Carter has the issue that he's a good, card-carrying Tranzi...which is to say pretty much a Watermelon (Green on the outside, Red on the inside).

Worse, I think he really, really believes it...and will go along with the Pravda of the week.

Carter is a well-educated fool. And I suspect Ron Paul to be another.
