He has relinquished his Government pension and many of the perks only accepting his salary . The only one that truly earns it . &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The citizens of Texas are very , very fortunate . We all should raise holy cane about him not being invited to the Iowan debates . The major news media have a block on him . He's gaining on the pack in spite of all of the suppression efforts .

He has introduced a lot of good legislature.&amp;nbsp; Yes, it may not get much support, but it shows you that he isn't afraid to act alone in Washington.&amp;nbsp; That takes a lot of courage to stand up like that against your fellow congresspeople and THAT is the type of president this country needs. Not some coward who changes on a whim.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I started a &lt;a href="http://vote-ron-paul-2008.blogspot.com/"&gt;small little blog&lt;/a&gt; on Ron Paul's presidential campaign.

Libertarians come up with good ideas which are promptly taken over by Republicans leaving Lib nothing to tout.&lt;br&gt;2. Lib Party is where all the non-socialist, non-coke head kooks gravitate to because the Repub Party doesn't suffer fools gladly.&lt;br&gt;3. When the Senate votes 99-1 it is Ron Paul who is the one. He is a very bright guy who is demented because he reads the Constitution without reference to the 200 (more or less) years of Supreme Court interpretations of every word in the Constitution which in turn becomes the law of the land. Dr. Paul refuses to understand the reality of politics being the art of the doable. He is in short, a nut.&amp;nbsp; Nobody in the Senate takes him seriously. He is not invited to political events or social parties. He is not consult&lt;br&gt;4. Such an example is the Lib..n brilliant notion of killing off the IRS. They really believe that this would solve a problem, any problem. Asked who then would collect taxes, they respond, do away with taxes. Asked then how do you pay the police, fire fighters, army, navy, marine corps, air force and the FBI, they answer you wouldn't need them in a peaceful society and if you did need them you could hire them as private forces. Asked exactly how that would work, they stop answering. Asked how you would secure a peaceful society, they ramble on with insane platitudes that have no relation to the plain facts of life such as that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4. To be a member of the Libertarian Party requires that you surrender all hope of actually accomplishing anything useful because Libertarians are dead set against any kind of coercion or violence except in self defense. So if an arab muslim murderer had you, killing him would be wrong until he actually did you harm, such as cutting your throat.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Conclusion: Joe Mercola would be wise&amp;amp;am&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=99209" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Ron Paul Introduces Legislation to Limit the FDA's Authority Over Supplements</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/05/18/Ron-Paul-Introduces-Legislation-to-Limit-the-FDAs-Authority-Over-Supplements.aspx#99208</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 May 2007 12:59:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:99208</guid><dc:creator>limelemon</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=style-section-head&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MARK YOUR CALENDARS &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;CNN Republican Primary Debate&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;June 5th&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

I live in his District and he is my Congressman. I used to work in his office here in Texas. He is a Constitutionalist really and has the greatest voting record of and for the people in Congress. He even gives back part of his office Budget for the US Treasury and has voted ever time against pay raises for members of Congress. I am a Democrat but this man is so true to his voters I have decided to vote for him. If anyone is interested they shoud visit his webbsite for 2008 Presidential Race. The man is in favor of closing the IRS, Supplements (He is a M.D.) and he wants to do away with the Federal Reserve Bank.

I was thrilled because even though little was said about him, his name&amp;nbsp;was mentioned.
