What will Ron Paul's new book be?

[coffeewithchess]

The last election RP hung around a good while after most had dropped out, and then announced he was releasing a book...

I'm guessing this same thing will happen again.

Any guesses on what topic it will address?

Fuck the GOP: A Manifesto

Fuck the GOP: A Manifesto

I'd buy two.

Hopefully he abandons minarchism and writes an anarcho-capitalist treatise. One can hope

 

[hardrightedge]

the end of an empire

[Johnny Appleseed]

probably a survival book

Yeah, just think how far he could advance the liberty movement if he did something like that. It would set us ahead by decades.

Join Me: Liberty and the Sea (adventures in seasteading)

I have a feeling he will steer clear of politics this time and make this next book some sort of cheap romantic novel

 

[nasaal]

Hopefully something with advice on where else in the world to live.

Move over Nicholas Sparks. Ronald Earnest Paul is about to get in touch with his emotional side.

Oh, I think he'll do that, for sure. He'll come out of the closet if he doesn't win. It might make more sense for the thousand-year plan (Rand, etc.) to keep it quiet, but then again, maybe not. He already basically has come out of the closet, for those who pay close enough attention and can put together the pieces. I don't think Ron has been a true minarchist for a long time, if indeed he ever was.

He'll do it in a respectable and intelligent way, and the MSM won't pay any attention, and so it won't hurt Rand's career at all, but as you say it would greatly advance the liberty movement.

Agreed. I've definitely heard some things he says lead me to believe that he is a closet anarcho-capitalist.

I don't see how Ron could possibly still be a minarchist after all these years studying economics, politics, and philosophy. Especially when he with such close ties to Rothbard, Lew Rockwell, and the Mises Institute which is almost completely anarcho-capitalist. I'd venture to guess that 75-90%+ of major Austrian economists are anarcho-capitalists. Plus, from my anecdotal observations, a large portion of people who start out as minarchists and then are exposed to anarcho-capitalist ideas through Rothbard, the Mises Institute, etc. come around to it after a few years.

My plan to run for Senate after being President
By Ron Paul

That would be awesome. Cleveland did that, right?

"Eh, I tried"- Ron Paul

How the Two Party System Fcuks the People from Both sides, while the Media cheered the Establishment Candidates !!

or

Let it Not be Said We Did Nothing, Neocons still Brought Down the Country !

 

[helmuth_hubener]

Nope, it was not Cleveland. John Quincy Adams was the only President to be in the House of Representatives after being President. And then Andrew Johnson was the only President to be in the Senate after being President. So Ron Paul would be the second one to follow the plan of your proposed book.
