They include tancredo, and kucinich... yet, somehow leave off Ron Pauls 2 books... interesting.. "gee, I wonder why?".. I guess that writer from the washington post is just another uninformed reporter who doesn't take their job too seriously.

I guess a mention of a book on Foreign Policy wouldn't be too wise for those who want the war.

AT least 2, "The Case for Gold" and "Foreign Policy of Freedom"

Uh... guys, have you tried looking it up on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul#Books_authored)? He authored 10 books, some freely available in PDF format.

EDIT: ok, emilysdad looked it up. :)

Given that he as authored 10 books, I find it funny that the Washington Post excluded him from the candidates who are authoring books. Friggin so irritating...

Dr. Paul isn't profiting much from his books these days--most of the ten are freely available as PDFs!

We should have an archive of all these blatant omissions. One day this evidence will be useful.

e-mail the writer and let him know how worthless he is.... or just lodge a complaint about leaving the good doctor out.

That's what the AP website says.. Or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.

A version of the story that I saw posted, crediting the AP, included Ron Paul and mentioned his 2007 book. So, try not to piss off the AP reporter because people who picked up the wire story chose to edit Dr. Paul out of it.

I found this version of the story when doing a search on the AP site.

I find no mention of Ron Paul.

I believe the Books page in the Ron Paul Library has a more accurate list of his books. You can also download many from there for free.

Wikipedia (bless their hearts) has some incorrect information. For example, A Republic If You Can Keep It, is a speech, not a book.
