The Thirst for Freedom

What do we do with Ron Paul? Some of what he says really resonates with me.

My main concern about Ron Paul is that he would just yank us out of Iraq. Regardless of whether or not we should be there, I seriously question the wisdom of that. All of us have to contend with the decisions those that have gone before have made, and even if we disagree with them, it would be smart to seriously consider the long-term credibility of the United States. Starting a war and then changing our minds is not good policy.

Your thoughts?

So, am I endorsing Ron Paul for President? Two videos in a row on him?

Not at this point. I just think he says some things that need to be considered by all. I am still learning about all of the candidates.

• Abolish the IRS and replace it with nothing…
• The Federal Government has no constitutional authority to hold States “accountable” for their schools…
• A general “non-intervention” policy that avoids “nation building.” (Sounds like George W. Bush when he first ran.)
• Putting money on an objective standard (gold?) – Abolish the Federal Reserve…

In some ways, he sounds like someone who believes in Freedom.
