Congress

As a matter of morale, I thought this article was worth reviving for those of you who were not yet onto our hero at this point in time.

Ron Paul is, in the words of respected writer Joseph Sobran ('The Honor of Ron Paul' - June 26, 2007) on Pat Buchanan's blog: "He may have become at last what he has always deserved to be: the most respected member of the U.S. Congress. He is also the only Republican candidate for president who is truly what all the others pretend to be, namely, a conservative. His career shows that a patriotic, pacific conservatism isn’t a paradox."

Thanks to Chris for the following: Ron Paul has sponsored H.R. 2755: To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes. Click the link for more details.
