REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE RON PAUL on NPR
No, he has not dropped out of the race. Republican Congressman Ron Paul is still campaigning, even though Senator John McCain has a virtual lock on the nomination. Ron Paul, the author of a New York Times number 1 Best Seller, The Revolution: A Manifesto, joins us to talk about why he soldiers on and what he hopes to accomplish. Will he form a third party? NPR political editor Ken Rudin joins host Neal Conan, as he does every Wednesday, for the latest on the presidential race and other political news. And we'll ask a world-renowned graphic designer, How important is a logo to a political campaign?
It's a live call-in show on NPR -- people who are interested in listening live should consult their local NPR station's schedule -- otherwise it can found www.npr.org, and navigate to the Talk of the Nation page)

"WIll you run in the general election"
Closing line in the interview:
NPR: "WIll you run in the general election?"
Ron Paul: "No."
Who are the socialists sitting in on this show?
Every question is questioning him being in the Republican Party. He's fighting them like a champ, though.
What Do You Expect?
It's essentially government (funded) radio.
Besides, the GOP power structure is doing its level best to self-destruct. Unless the Paulian faction in the party is able to take over, it will be Limbaugh showing prescience on this one point: if McCain is elected it will be the death-knell of the party. Boo-hoo!
When the government fears the people, you have liberty. When the people fear the government, you have tyranny.

"...are you still running?"
"...well, right now I'm sitting!"
Call in now!

I'm tuning in.
It should be written like
It should be written like this:
"Ron Paul, the author of a New York Times number 1 Best Seller, The Revolution: A Manifesto"
Good Edit
Thanks
I made that change;

Thank you for the link
I am so proud of him. I am also proud of Lake Jackson because he lives there and gets elected and yet is allowed to be a regular human being there. I think the way he lives physically, his house, etc., is a very inspirational. When people see where he lives and how he lives, it is so much more interesting to them to listen to him speak. He is the genuine article.
I am disgusted with your newspaper and I wish someone would buy it who is a true American. Is it owned by the establishment? If not it sure cowers to them.
well
Fortune Favors the Bold
he is well known in his district, and was even before he got elected. Of course, his world fame is new. But to the people who've known him all these years, I mean, he hasn't personally changed.
REPUBLICAN
party is a 3rd party isn't it, and it will be getting lots smaller after the convention.
Someone record!! :D
