Reasons to Support Ron Paul
I would like to encourage everyone who reads this column to consider supporting Congressman Ron Paul in the upcoming Presidential primary. While the mainstream media have done their best to ignore him, Ron Paul raised almost $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 – more than any other Republican candidate.
Why is Ron Paul worthy of your vote? Here are a few highlights of his experience during ten terms in Congress. Ron Paul:
Never voted for corporate welfare, a tax increase, an unbalanced budget, or to raise congressional pay. He even declines to participate in the lucrative congressional pension plan.
Supports the First Amendment, the Second Amendment ... in fact the entire Bill of Rights (especially the Tenth Amendment), personal freedom and privacy, a free and unregulated Internet, and a return to sound monetary policies that will bolster our sagging economy and strengthen the dollar.
Opposes intrusive government regulations, domestic spying, the (horribly misnamed) PATRIOT Act, and any form of a national ID card.
Voted against the Iraq War, opposes a pre-emptive attack on Iran, and will end the U.S. role as world policeman and bring our troops home.
Unlike many of the other candidates who are lawyers, Dr. Ron Paul is an obstetrician who has delivered over 4,000 babies. He is pro-life and pro-family; Ron has been married to the same woman for over 50 years and they have 5 children and 18 grandchildren.
Ron Paul's reputation for honesty and integrity is unmatched in American politics. Even one of his current opponents, Senator John McCain, once told a Ron Paul staffer: "You're working for the most honest man in Congress."
The primary election is February 5 – less than a month away. Early voting runs from January 16-31. Find out more about Ron Paul now at RonPaul2008.com and you will see why the "Champion of the Constitution" deserves your vote.
