Check out this great article: Why Ron Paul Won in 2008

Excerpt:

Ron Paul’s campaign has always been a bottom-up phenomenon. Secondly, it is a more purely philosophical and ideological agenda - rather than a pragmatic political one. While many have criticized that this is a bad thing - is it not more beneficial in the long-term to sacrifice an election in order to generate hundreds of thousands of individual awakenings to liberty?

Rather than being humble, Paul was being very honest when he said countless times that the campaign wasn’t about him, but about the people who supported him. Paul’s campaign jarred the intellectually lazy and cynical over a few months (which may have been all they needed), and made them take a moment to consider what freedom, consitutionalism and liberty really mean. He showed us what a free society should look like.

Hey Russian,

Maybe you can include the "Digg" in the title and the the Digg Link in the top of your thread. That might help as the Diggs has been very slow today.

Freedom Rules!

That was great!

I know self-bumps are a little lame, but here's a nice article with some positive news. I think we can all use that today...
