A Recruit for Ron Paul
A reader writes:
Thank you for the plug for Ron Paul. I had no idea he existed and I have been looking for a replacement for McCain since he sold his soul to the Christian Right. Thank heavens we have a candidate that espouses the philosophies of Reagan, Goldwater, and true libertarian conservatism.
