Ron Paul's isolationism is a foreign concept (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0607/4477.html)

Rep. Paul can find success by framing his noninterventionism not as a corrective for America's sins, past or present, but as the way forward to restoring America's independence and sovereignty.

Politico makes some decent arguments about how he could better shape his message for the "middle-American" crowd that might be receptive to our non-interventionism.

If he could find a way to articulate in a way that says "we are never going make those sand monkeys behave, so we best just let them sort out their own crap"...... he would be broaden his base.

Politico.com is in bed with the NeoCons.

FOX and them were hand in hand at the FOX sponsored debates and had 'FOX news contributors' ragging on Dr. Paul about him getting 'knocked out of the park by Rudy Giuliani.'

Screw Politico.com, don't let them pander to you.

That article is a lot more complimentary than it seems... the worst part is probably the title...

yea I did not see this as a negative article towards paul. It was not a essay of endorsement, but really it was fair.

That's what people are waking up to... Ron Paul's ideas are good ideas, they just have been so ignored for so long that nobody can believe they are legitimate. That's what this article is warning about. We have been led astray.

The author who wrote the Politico article also wrote the American Conservative cover story about Ron Paul.

I think it's a good article. It just points out that Dr. Paul talks with words people don't understand and his jargon doesn't resonate with most Americans who are used to talking in slogans rather than in sentences.

If you want a great example go to the Hannity board for the stupidity that gets masqueraded as patriotism. They have hearts of gold, but brains of mush.
