In aggregate, it is from the extreme left side of the political spectrum from which the local Salt Lake press reported Paul's strict adherence to the Constitution and limited government, his call for abolishing the Fed, the IRS and the Department of Education, and non-interventionism into the affairs of other nations as extreme.
This is a telling admission as three of the Communist Manifesto's 10 planks (numbers 2, 5, and 10) call for:
* a central bank (the Fed)
* a progressive income tax (which is enforced by the IRS)
* and centralized control over education (which the Department of Education seeks to expand every year).
Had the local media in Salt Lake City told its viewers the truth, they would have reported (with some exasperation): "Ron Paul wants to repeal three out of the ten planks of the Communist Manifesto! That's extreme!!"
