Looking for interview I once saw with Ron Paul - speaking in practical terms about what he would do as POTUS

I once saw an interview with Ron Paul where the interviewer asked RP what he would actually do as president.

I want to find this one because Ron Paul sounded extremely practical in this interview. It seems like a good rebuttal to people who think he is an ideological-purist-pie-in-the-sky type.

In the interview he said that there was a lot he could do as Commander in Chief, but that a lot of other things he believes he would not be able to do because there isn't a public consensus. But he went on to say that public opinion had changed over the years though because there is now public support for auditing the Fed, and that wouldn't have had support years back.

Has anyone seen this interview?

BTW I am NOT referring to the one that comes up when searching for "What would you do as President Ron Paul" on Google. The Aaron Task interview is not the one I'm looking for.

Thanks.

I'm not sure what video you're looking for, but I always liked this article: http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul647.html

Hopefully someone has the video you're looking for, I'm intrigued.

The fact that information like this is hard to find speaks VOLUMES about what I would do differently with the RP campaign.

EVERY other person who ever ran for President constantly tells anyone who will listen "When I'm elected I'm going to...."

I have not heard RP say that once this go-around.

The problem with saying what

The problem with saying what a president will do is that the presidency as such doesn't have authority in practically any area that is usually trotted out in these debates. Congress is actually more important than the presidency in this respect. However, Ron has said what he would like to see happen. Plus he has some authority when it comes to foreign affairs.
