Brad was a bright student, a dedicated liberty activist, a forum member (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/member.php?19797-rootboot), and a friend of mine.

Brad Peterson loved Ron Paul.
In fact, senior political science major Andrew Napoli said Peterson traveled to a conservative convention last year and met the well-known libertarian politician, calling it “one of the highlights of his life, no doubt.” Peterson had a way of getting things like that done, Napoli, a friend and colleague, said.
Peterson, a 20-year-old junior in Fox School of Business, passed away in his room in 1300 Residence Hall, last week.
...
“There is nothing I cherish more than doing the things I love with people I care about,” a student named Michelle wrote. “Every moment fighting for liberty and every smile that resulted from spreading our love for it, is something I will always treasure. You were my friend, Brad, and I’ll miss you every day.”
Please join me in remembering Brad and hoping that he rests in peace.

Rest his soul. What on earth did he die of? It doesn't sound like a suicide.

Tip of the hat to a young man that in 20 short years probably did more to bring liberty to his country than most men 3 times his age.

I believe I had the privilege of meeting Brad at the last Spring Fling I attended. We spoke briefly, but it was clear he was really enthusiastic about spreading the message of liberty.
RIP, very sad.

At the bottom of the current version of the story: Update: Jeff Moran, a spokesperson for the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office, has since said the cause of death was an accidental drug intoxication.
