Ron Paul is the Only GOP Candidate Who Won't Add... →
Hmm… I wonder which GOP candidate would actually cut spending? Reports CNN Money:
Newt Gingrich’s economic plan would do a lot of things. But reducing the debt and balancing the federal budget aren’t among them.
Same goes for Rick Santorum’s and Mitt Romney’s economic plans.
Indeed, a preliminary analysis by the independent Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget released Thursday...

“VP” Rand Paul and the Imaginary Romney/Paul... →
The media speculation about some supposed cooperation between the Ron Paul campaign and Mitt Romney has gotten completely out of hand. Ron Paul is running for President of the United States. His son, Sen. Rand Paul, is supporting his father’s run for President of the United States. That’s all that’s going on here. There is no secret “conspiracy.” During a radio interview this morning in...

The Revolution Cannot Be Stopped →
The idea that America is in trouble and needs saving is nothing new. Liberals have thought this for sometime and have continuously sought salvation by growing government. Conservatives have argued that what America needs saving from is liberals and their destructive policies. Yet the Republican Party has been equally as complicit in expanding government as the Democratic Party. This is what...

Paul: U.S. "slipping into a fascist system" →
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul warned the U.S. is “slipping into a fascist system” dominated by government and businesses as he held a fiery rally Saturday night upstaging established Republican Party banquets a short distance away.
The Texas congressman drew a couple thousand standing and chanting people to Kansas City’s Union Station as the...

Ron Paul 2nd Place In Maine →
With 95% reporting, Ron Paul has over 36% of the vote in Maine right behind first place finisher Mitt Romney, who has barely 39%.
But when all the votes are counted will Romney still be in first place? Only 194 votes stand between Paul and a first place victory. Washington County is a stronghold for Paul and has yet to report. It might be a week before we know the final outcome there and...

Can I ask for your help again?
Ron Paul’s presidential campaign isn’t about a man who has a sickening desire for power and control. His campaign isn’t just about becoming president. Rather, it is about spreading Libertarian ideals that have not been gaining the momentum they should in the past 50 years.
Dr. Paul’s idols are Murray Rothbard, Lysander Spooner, Ludwig Von Mises, F.A. Hayek, and many other great Austrian...

Ron Paul's Ideological Roots →
In 1994, Murray Rothbard explained the Old Right:
The original right of which I speak, and of which I am one of the few survivors, stretched from 1933 to its approximate death, or fading away, upon the advent of National Review in 1955. The Old Right began in 1933 in response to the coming of the New Deal. It was “reactionary” in the best and most generous sense: it was a...

The Path to Peace →
Mr. Speaker, today I rise with gratitude to Edmund Burke and paraphrase words he first spoke 224 years ago this week. It is presently true that to restore liberty and dignity to a nation so great and distracted as ours is indeed a significant undertaking. For, judging of what we are by what we ought to be, I have persuaded myself that this body might accept this reasonable proposition.
The...
