Ron Paul, muffled by Fox, wows Jay Leno?

t's not easy for a 72-year-old, 10-term congressman from Texas, who once before ran for president on the Libertarian ticket, to get much media attention. He's been polling a long time in single digits. But then a couple of things happened. Paul's thousands of outspoken, fervent followers set a new one-day fundraising record and reaped almost $20 million for him in the fourth quarter, likely more than any other GOP candidate. I believe this guy speaks for most of Americans who want change (main categories anyway). He's on the Republin card, but is an actual Libertarian. Any thoughts on him?

Here is the interview in case you missed it

    If media excludes from the debate a valid candidate who will develop $20M , you could wager they have an schedule. Their modern-day tries to smear him with allegations of racism are in basic terms considered one of their little tricks. Dr. Ron Paul is neither a kook nor a racist. He has a stable history in financial device and worldwide affairs and better of all, he did no longer lose his straight forward sense. With him, we would bypass via a recession, with out him we would be heading for a melancholy. think of roughly this: why do all the interior maximum financial specialists propose which you pay your debt, and yet our government borrows and spends like there is not any day after today? Are your tax funds spent properly? think of actually perplexing.

    Ron Paul is a walking breathing founding father. He has never wavered in any of his positions in 25 years in Congress. He has voted against every tax increase and every undeclared war. He strictly follows the Constitution on a level that Thomas Jefferson would be proud. Ron Paul will do away with the FDA and the IRS both agencies that have no Constitutional authority and are based on the fraudulent Federal Reserve act of 1913 and HJR-192 which removed the Gold standard on April 5th, 1933. Losing a Constitutional Republic can be traced back to the removal of the Gold standard and the common law.

    I agree with "Will" 100%. Ron Paul has some brilliant ideas, and I do believe that there is a place for him, but not in the Presidential Seat. His foreign policies are way too weak, and he is more sympathetic to the middle east than most liberals...which could be catastrophic.
