  2. Ron Paul doesn't have many faults, but we veterans of 2008 and 2012 have always questioned his judgement in keeping that worthless sack of poop on board.

  3. I agree Capn Mike. Always grateful for what I learned from Dr Paul, shoot just the books I've read because of him. Goes to show that good people should stay away from politics and politicians really are all scum. I wish I could have every dollar back and about 3/4 of my time back (still hold on to the other 1/4 for the aforementioned knowledge).

  4. I agree and would say that the Good Doctor was more interested in the message of liberty than the actual politics and was used by those close to him. Going to be some awkward family gatherings.
