Worker's Power article on Ron Paul.......

Enjoy. This shows WHY Ron Paul is NOT a candidate for any person with left wing views even on those issues you might THINK that you agree with him on.

http://www.workerspower.net/ron-paul-a-bigoted-reactionary-enemy-of-the-99

His "left wing" positions flow out of his fetishism for the Constition as orginally written, NOT from a philosophical committment to those individual positions.

for the Republican nomination and, as such, deserves discussion on a political web site. Could he become POTUS? Probably not, but as a viable candidate for one of the major political parties, he must be exposed for what he is. This article does that.

Should be the campaign slogan for Ron Paul.
His vision of America is one where only the strong survive, and those who fail must rely on family and friends.

NOT very libertarian. As I understand libertarianism, you're fist's freedom ends where my nose begins. But if you allow a business unregulated freedom, you kill people. Literally.
