"Redpills appear to have either seen glitches from the Matrix (i.e. a book continuously respawning on a shelf, regardless of attempts to remove the book), or have such a nature and/or awareness as to question their life within the Matrix, and refuse to dismiss the strange events - basically those who have figured out the illusion of the Matrix."

Are You Feeling Ill?
Does your stomach churn when you pump your wallet into your gas tank, or when you sit down to spend hours telling the IRS about your income so they can decide how much you get to keep? Do you feel queasy when you see jobs moving offshore, and wonder if your job could be next? Does the fact that the President declares he can ignore the laws of the land by issuing Executive Orders make you hot under the collar?
Are you sickened by the sight of rows of caskets returning from Iraq, or the photos of burned and dying children you see on the evening news? Does the thought of launching a pre-emptive nuclear strike against Iran make you nauseous? Does our ever-expanding empire in over 150 countries make you see red?
Do your palms sweat when you get an audit letter from the IRS, or when you see a police car following you in your rear-view mirror? Does the fact that we are borrowing billions of dollars from China to finance a growing overseas empire give you a sinking feeling?
Do you get shivers when you read of SWAT teams accidently invading the wrong home, sometimes shooting innocent occupants? Do you feel a sense of malaise settle over you when you see our children's abilities falling, and hear of the violence and promiscuity in our schools?
If these symptoms describe you, you are suffering from a recently discovered disease called "Big Government Syndrome." Thankfully, a group of researchers have discovered an effective and immediate cure for this horrid and debilitating disease.
Nothing cures a case of "Big Government Syndrome" faster than making a positive effort to return our country to the Constitutional roots established by our Founding Fathers. Learn about Dr. Ron Paul, the ten-term Congressman from Texas who is running for President, and you'll be feeling better in no time. Over 100,000 active supporters exercise their political rights every day, and all of them notice a marked improvement in their feeling of well-being.
Note that he has never voted to raise taxes, never voted for an unbalanced budget, never voted to raise congressional pay, and never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
Dr. Paul's prescription will let Americans keep more of their own money, end the IRS, and stop the Federal Reserve's "Inflation Tax." He will end our financial dependence on China, Saudi Arabia, and other countries, and end trade agreements like NAFTA, CAFTA and GATT that make it easy for our jobs to move away from us.
His prescription also includes dialing back the militarization of our police forces, and restoring our civil liberties by ending the Patriot Act. He'll stop the spread of "Big Government Syndrome," securing our borders and ending illegal immigration, and bring our troops home, not only from Iraq, but from over 150 countries.

Ron always says it's not about him - it's about the message.
So, perhaps along the lines of:
"Dr Paul's message is the red pill."

You haven't taken the red pill. And you refuse to do so. The NAU is a conpiracy theory. Imagine what other Alex Jones conspiracy theories turn out to be true? Like the NSA spying on us. Fema camps. Bin Laden's dead. NWO...etc.
In the first Matrix movie the hero, Neo, is originally a part of the Matrix. Early on he meets Morpheus, who offers to show him the truth. He gives Neo two choices. He can take the blue pill, which will knock him out and he won't see him again. He can go on the rest of his life believing whatever he wants to believe. If he takes the red pill then Morpheus will show him the truth about the world. After a little hesitation, Neo takes the red pill.

I have always put the tagline "Another Take the Red Pill Production" in all my Youtubes. It is sad that there is a single American that hasn't seen the first Matrix movie in it's entirety. 
As to the OP - Lleppard, I think that calling Congressman Paul ANY kind of pill would be picked up and used by the opposition.
Since the Red Pill represents the truth, maybe a better angle would be:
"Dr. Paul prescribes the Red Pill" or "take two red pills and call Dr. Paul in the morning". Sadly based on the posts in this thread there are a lot of people who don't understand the meaning so I am not sure how effective it would be.
I have always felt like taking the red pill is akin to the quote about wanting to know the truth, no matter how bad it is. Better the harsh truth than a comforting lie that leads to false security.
