Default Ron Paul on the economy, military spending and gay rights

Quote:
On the night of Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2011, I had the privilege to ride with presidential candidate Ron Paul on his trip to the airport to fly home. For about 30 private and unscripted minutes, I had the 12-term congressman to myself. The results of that interview comprise more information than possible to convey in a single column, so the story has been broken into segments, of which this is the fourth.

Sitting there with Ron Paul, even in the dark as his driver took us to the airport for his return flight home, you could see the genuine worry on his face. Party ideology aside, it's clear that this is a man who cares about his country. Dr. Paul is a free market economist of the Austrian school, so I asked him what specifically he believes the government has done to hurt the economy...

Ron Paul is pretty much a boss. Sometimes silly but overall, a boss.

the man who wants to destroy all the powers of goverment, pass it over to the rich, and expect that we wont revert back to what the founding fathers were fighting against.

It'll certainly make the 2012 US Presidential Election a lot more fun to watch if he wins the Primaries.

It would also make the election more fun if the Loch Ness Monster won the primary. And both events are roughly equally likely.
