Thoughts

Who the hell is Ron Paul? I decided to look him up on Wikipedia, and here’s some of what I found out:

Source of my information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul

He is a candidate for the Republican nomination in our next presidential election in 2008

He is a 10th term Congressman from Lake Jackson, Texas

He’s a physician, and earned the nickname of “Dr. No”, because he votes against any bill that he feels violates the Constitution

Mr. Paul supports free trade, wants tighter border security, and gun ownership.

He opposes abortion, the income tax, the federal War on Drugs and the federal regulation of marriage.

Those are just some of the things that stuck out for me in reading the article. I’ll be reading more on him in the coming days – this article goes back to his upbringing, and relates his military experiences and life in politics. He sounds pretty interesting.

More later…
