Except for the ridiculously long "racism" bit (hopefully it will at least put this issue to rest), this interview looks like it's going to be good. Most of these questions are so simple and can be answered by the 10th Amendment alone. Piece of cake. As long as Ron gets his rest and is able to speak clearly on the interview, he's going to dominate.
 
The number one question will be "Will you run third party when you don't win the nomination!" EVERYONE else has ask it!!!!
 
Great job thinking of all those questions. I certainly believe Ron Paul is well-prepared for it!
 
I would love it if Russert asks Ron Paul why he did not participate in the NRA's candidate questionaire process. That would give him a audience in the millions to boldly proclaim and expose the NRA as being worthless appeasers of our second amendment rights.
 
The one he will get hit hardest on is the taxes/IRS thing, because he has had somewhat conflicting/bad statements on it. This will be the toughest on him, I imagine. We already had a discussion on the meet the press and talked about this.

I wouldn't doubt the Don Black, old newsletter, prostitution, anti-drug war, etc will all be brought up, but Ron Paul is pretty damned good with those questions. The tax one is the one that will come out making him look the worst. I hope he answers right off the bat that getting rid of the individual income tax/IRS is what he would like to do, but the best he could probably accomplish is cutting taxes and perhaps reforming them because he will have to work with congress. I hope old statements on taxes don't come back to bite him in the ass. Seriously, I think this issue is the one that makes him look unrealistic. He has to handle this one well or he will be a laughingstock.
 
I think he's gonna go after Paul on global warming and ask him if he would abolish the EPA, etc.
 
I'm not over-optimistic or over-confident, but Ron Paul will put MTP studio on fire with his authentic, straightforward answers.

Next thing you'll see is Ron Paul will take over Russert's part as the host of the show.
