Huge news!

Up until now, I have stayed away from politics on this blog. But this news is too big to ignore.
I just heard that Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) has formed a committee to explore a run for the Presidency on the Republican ticket. If it turns out that he does run, I may have to reconsider my "drop out" status.
There is one, and only one, person in the US today who can truly make progress in turning this country around and that one person is Ron Paul. In years past he's refused to seek higher office saying he can do better work at the Congressional level. This year, looking at the socialist candidate, Hillary, we have to seek out one person who can stop her. Ron Paul is that one.
I have pretty much given up any hope that the US can be saved. We've been crumbling into the socialist quagmire for nearly 100 years now. It's one reason I decided to drop out and become a "boat bum."
If by some chance, Ron Paul should become the next President, there will still be hope for freedom. It won't be certain, but it will be a hopeful sign. If he is not the next President, the country is doomed. Extreme opinion? Yes, but one born of long study.
I had the opportunity to spend several hours in conversation with Dr. Paul in 1988. He is an extremely bright man, and a very plain talker. He is an expert on the Constitution and an expert economist in addition to being a medical doctor.
If you oppose the War in Iraq, if you think Hillary would drag the country to its destruction, support Ron Paul.
