10. And he is trying to soften up his Domestic agenda..talking about slowly
phasing out entitlement programs and using money sent overseas to do it.

And of course, nothing about his being anti-choice.

4. first caller, GOP line
I really hope you win, the others are hopeless.

Paul is attacking Bush on Patriot Act, and civil liberties. From the libertarian point of view, but he has it right on this issue.

Second caller, You are my hero. Let's take our troops out of each and every 139 countries where they are based. China has no bases, and no one will invade them.

Paul "Foreign policy of occupation is the source of trouble, it creates fanaticism. We are less safe now than before. Most great died because of economic reasons. we see that happening here and now, just like it happened to the USSR."

9. Clueless voters, once again.
Ron Paul is a Libertarian of the worst kind. Totally against any Federal programs, regulations, etc. The buy yourselves some boots and then pull yourselves up by the straps, kinda guy. But, maybe he'll pull some of support away from their front runners, like Rudy or the Mitt. Maybe even a 3rd party run this time. Maybe even 4th if The Radical Fringe Right Wing forms their own party. :toast:

6. asked if he would choose Dennis K as VP,
he said too premature, but he and Dennis agree on many issues, and view the constitution similarly.
