Support Ron Paul!
Imagine an American presidential candidate who
- supports abolishing the income tax
- supports the reintroduction of the gold standard
- supports ending the “war on drugs”
- supports free trade, but opposes political pseudo-”free-trade”-organizations like the WTO
- supports the right to own automatic rifles
- opposes the welfare- and surveillance state
- supports individual rights against state control
- and advocates overall reductions of federal spendings and authority
Believe it or not, but such a candidate actually exists. His name is Ron Paul, he’s a the only Republican voting against both Iraq wars, and he’s running for office in 2008 with unusually intelligent positions. For obvious reasons, the mainstream media with their strong political affiliations largely ignore Ron, so it’s up to you to make a difference.
If you are an US citizen, or if you know someone who is, you should support Ron, and tell others about his campaign. He may be the last hope which exists to prevent the U.S. from turning into a total police state, which will definitely happen if there is no one standing up to stop it (and yes, they’ll take away your porn, too). Hey, if even European anarchistic smut peddlers like me tell you so, there’s definitely something about it. Check out these websites. Become an activist. Support Ron Paul.
Update: Since Ron Paul is a regular writer on LRC, I’d suggest reading his articles there, if you are looking for in-depth information on his positions.
