[Toronto Star] Ron Paul: 2012 witnessing the rise of a guru to the downwardly mobile

The Toronto Star is the number 1 paper in Toronto and notoriously left-leaning. This is the first feature article I've seen about Ron Paul in Toronto news.

Mixed opinions about this article... the title itself is nice and demeaning and the tired addages of kooky and crazy still float around, but there are some great jabs at the media and Fox News.

"Add in Paul’s unbending opposition to the freedom-squelching Patriot Act and the U.S. war on drugs, all in the name of individual liberty, and the Republican establishment was in eye-rolling overdrive, with American conservative media outlets dutifully following suit.

No worries, Fox News reassured its viewers. If Ron Paul won Iowa, the Iowa caucuses would be meaningless. If Mitt Romney won, well, that’s different. "

In an article I read a few days ago, in the comment section, the first dozen or so comments were from people with engineering degrees of various types, including a couple of PhD's. All those comments were pro Dr. Paul.
