I hold out hope citizens aren't the only ones that start to see the method in his madness. Could you imagine if congress got on board and woke up? We would have an entirely new (actually old, heh) republic that actually functioned.

Apparently Dr.Paul does not realize that slashing pending during a hard economic time the economy will get far worse. There is a reason that no sane person takes him seriously.
Dr. Paul's understanding of economics comes from his study of Friedrich Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, and Milton Friedman, all clearly insane . I'm pretty sure Dr. Paul has at least an order of magnitude better understanding of economic principles than you, as observed by your comment.

You're a fool.
Try the Austrian School of Economics for Ron Paul.
This is comparison to Keynesian Economic's that the Democrat Party (US) and the Labour Party (UK) worship...

Amen. Dr Paul may be this nations last chance for survival. If things continue as they are the coming financial catastrophe will destroy us. Honestly though, I do not see TPTB allowing Ron Paul to get elected. If he somehow did, they would kill him and blame Al-Queda or something.

All republicans love Keynes too, Ron Paul is the only Austrian that I can think of and maybe Gary Johnson, but I'm not too sure about Gary though.

It only affects the bloated government employees.
They are living on Tax money now, what difference if they are on unemployment or welfare?
Only someone who cares nothing about this country would continue spending and increasing the size of government.

So.... if RP is fighting for the 'old republic'..... does that make him a Knight of the Old Republic?
Ah,..there's no sin in ignoring politics, I was the same until I realised that Politics is about US our future our lives but when we realise that these dudes cannot be trusted, everything changes.
joking aside...
I never really cared about politics until about..... 8 months ago or so. I've never trusted the gov. I guess you could say I've lived my life in a 'semi-anarchic' way... I say that because I have always done what i wanted to do regardless of what the law is or what the rules are... but i still have **some** respect for 'authority'. When I started reading more and more about what is really going on.... I really think RP needs to be president.... as long as he isn't lying through his teeth and honestly means everything he preaches, I think he would do alot of good for this country.
I've been able to vote for 2 elections so far in my life, didn't vote in either one... but i'm voting in 2012.
