Ron Paul jumps in
This time it's from the highly respected Politics1 website...
RON PAUL JUMPS IN.
Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) last ran for President in 1988 as the Libertarian Party nominee, winning 400,000 votes and earning ballot status in all 50 states. On Thursday Paul filed federal exploratory committee paperwork to make a second run for
President, this time as a Republican. Still an outspoken libertarian iconoclast, Paul stridently fights to slash taxes and reduce the role of the federal government. He also has opposed the Iraq War from the inception and opposes the President's domestic surveillance program and the Patriot Act as unconstitutional. On many House votes -- even routine ones of seemingly uncontroversial matters -- Paul frequently casts the lone dissenting vote. That is why Paul, a physician, earned the moniker of "Doctor No." Paul's campaign chair concedes Paul is "an underdog ... but we think it's well worth doing and we'll let the voters decide" ...
