He was on my plane from Washington Reagan to white plains NY this evening. He boarded first with the secret service, they have to check in with me because i'm the captain and they are carrying a gun. Anyways I went back and introduced myself and asked it he would sign my book The 5000 year leap. He said sure and asked what it was about. I told him it was about the constitution and the gold standard (had to throw that in). He then asked if I was sure I wanted him to sign it. I said of course. Then he says you know I don't believe in that stuff. Not sure if he just meant the gold standard or the Constitution too. Anyways he signed it, I told him I was a libertarian and he made a comment that didn't really make much sense to me and I decided I should leave him alone and thanked him.

I wish I would have though to question him about HR1207, ohh well. The secret service agent didn't look like he liked me talking to him. Sure was nice to insinuate to him I didn't approve of his economics. Actually , it felt awesome.

wow awesome! that takes balls, you know he was thinking he didn't want to piss off his pilot for the upcoming flight by not signing your book, even though its obviously against his beliefs =]

haha nice score

Thanks, I mostly just lurk here. But thought you guys would get a kick out of this today. Sure wish I could meet ron paul someday like this instead of a turbo tax cheat.
 
lol that's awesome man.

T-Geith cannot escape the Revolution, anywhere!
 
Awesome! if he got that everyday it'd change his mind - or it better!
 
Am I the only one surprised that Geithner has Secret Service protection?

I thought it was just the President and Vice President and their families.

But yes, it's very cool that you shared with us!!! How tall is he?

Ron Paul got Alan Greenspan to sign a Pro-Gold standard thesis. (The Pro-Gold Standard thesis was written by Pre-FED Greenspan)
