Correction: This man is BETTER than the hypocrites and liars that founded our national government. Washington was a tyrant who actually sent federal troops to collect the treacherous whiskey tax in Pennsylvania and lobbied the Continental Congress to grant him authority to execute "deserters" in the Revolutionary War. Franklin made his entire fortune off of royally granted printing monopolies including fiat paper currency, the hated stamp act stamps, etc. Jefferson was a brilliant political philosopher who became drunk with power as president and imposed a massive blockade on English goods and did everything he could to start a war with England - something his buddy Madison was able to do successfully once he took his place. Don't even get me started on Adams the corporatist Federalist.
Ron Paul is a singular exception in the entire history of this nation.

Ron Paul is the best ever. Not to undermine the vision of our founders, but they had various shortcomings... slavery comes to mind. Economics has been advanced since then, and certainly has helped the good doctor have a better understanding than even possible in the Revolutionary period.
great speech. i wonder if anyone will ever address the subject of 9/11 truth though.
i'm tired of hearing the lie(s) of arabs on a plane...

Great speech and as always 100% on point. isn't it amazing that it is the year 2009 and our population exceeds 300 million, yet to have common sense and dignity makes us the "fringe"? The main stream seem to know what our leaders need to do to correct many major issues where they have failed, and the tea parties and protests prove this, yet when anyone suggests our leaders carry out these often time simple corrections, and actual "fix" something that is broken, the very same people label you a "kook". Well if respecting what Dr. Paul says and means makes one a kook, then my goal in life is to be the kookiest of them all.

In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.

That chamber looks empty!!! One more example of our man's integrity, I guess.

Now here's a hero who's not afraid to stand for principles that matter. If only Rand had the intellect and balls his father has.
God how I love this man!

THE GREATEST STATESMAN IN GOVERNMENT...
THIS is the kind of man who created our country in the first place.
I believe Dr. Paul is one of the VERY FEW men in government today who I could say that about.
He is cut from the same fabric as Wahington, Franklin, Jefferson and John Quincy Adams.
I've never seen anyone else who is so correct on every point.
Ron Paul for president 2012.

I agree

Thank you for the 90th time for opening my eyes to this philosophy of non-intervention. Will look for the book, March of Folly too.
