Gary Johnson Announcement?

I wonder how many of you folks that are so sensitive about a divorce were so bent out of shape about Ron Paul's racist newsletters...

Or did his voting record help to overlook that blight?

I don't know if I'm one of the people whom you think is so sensitive about divorce. But, speaking for myself, yes, I saw the newsletters as a major blemish for RP.

Assuming he actually wrote the newsletters himself (which he didn't), destroying a family for selfish reasons is a great deal worse than simply writing down your observations on a culture of people.

I agree with your conclusion, but disagree with the idea that it matters whether or not he personally wrote the newsletters. Of course he didn't, just as he didn't personally write The Revolution: A Manifesto, or all those emails and fund raising letters I get from him with his signature at the bottom, or his endorsement of Chuck Baldwin, or probably a great deal of the items you can read in the Ron Paul archive at lewrockwell.com. He's responsible for all of those, no matter who wrote them on his behalf. I suspect that the reason he didn't fall back on the "I had a ghost writer" excuse over all those years of answering the newsletter charge prior to 2008 was because he knew that that, although true, was a lame excuse.

Gary will start making the talk show / PR rounds here soon to lay the ground work for a Presidential run. If we can get him double the % that Ron got in NH, and have him come in 3rd in Iowa, then he might have a shot.



But I can't reveal my source, let's just say it's someone who is prominent, educated, and "in-the-know".

Well what do ya know?
