I couldn't believe I heard Ron Paul's name mentioned. Rick Santelli of CNBC, speaking about how the traders were cheering Ron Paul when he was speaking about the dollar. He of course qualified his statement by saying you might not agree with Ron Pauls views on things, but that when talking about the dollar, traders were cheering. He said you can't talk about inflation without talking about the dollar. It was really a breath of fresh air in the midst of all the fake news.

Ha! Never thought I'd be grateful to traders. Politics does indeed make strange bedfellows!

Bernanke needs to keep the paddle himself to get out of Shit Creek!

Rick Santelli is a straight shooter - he always calls the BS that the other dimwits on CNBC preach.

I think the VIDEO LINK is very, very useful and important. I would suggest to get that video clip out to all meet up groups and district leaders in OHIO, email this video as a Press Release that everyone seems to clammering about on the other thread! this is the best endorsement ever! No other candidate has such a piece of VIDEO from the CORE CENTER OF OUR ECONOMY, THE TRADING FLOOR!

In addition the testimony and clip out to all Texans! GO RON GO

Could we smell the re-enchantment for Paul's campaign? I think we might be in the last stage of the Gandhi plan (first they ignore you, then the mock you and then you win). And we should use the dollar as an issue for the campaign more than ever.

I think the response of the anchor sort of showed what the media outlets, and then the majority of America, get fed about Ron Paul. While traders who actually know their business inside and out are cheering Ron Paul because they know he is right, the public is obsessed with words like "gold standard" that imply Paul is a "relic."

Yeah I'm liking Rick Santelli more and more. Good for him for standing up to Leisman all the time.
