GOP Debate - Ron Paul Quieter, Eloquent

In one answer, he directly attacked President George Bush and suggested that were he to win the presidency, he would request that the current president never "darken his door" again.

Ron Paul's most eloquent moment may have come when he branded the nation's main moral failure as its new policy of "pre-emptive engagement" which he said has taken the place of the ancient, Christian idea of a "just war."
