It talks about Bachmann, Romney, Gingrich and most of all Obama, but only approves of Obama and this guy:
Far more effective is the strategy taken up by Ron Paul, long recognized as one of the main voices of libertarianism in American politics.
On Nov. 21, Occupy Wall Street crashed a New Hampshire rally and began heckling the GOP primary candidate. Paul however, waited until they were finished before delivering this quip: "Do you feel better?"
Paul then went on to express his solidarity with the Occupy movement. "If you listen carefully, I'm very much involved with the 99," Paul assured the demonstrators.
He even co-opted a popular OWS chant for his final words. "People on Wall Street got the bailouts, and you guys got stuck with the bills, and I think that's where the problem is."
Paul's support for the momentum behind the Occupy Wall Street movement is nothing new. Back in early October, Paul told the National Press Club that he admired OWS, calling the protesters part of a "legitimate effort" of "civil disobediance."
The recent "mic check" of Ron Paul proves however, that Paul is sticking by that claim, and may explain why the man so many initially dismissed as a Third Party write-in has become a force to be reckoned with in the Republican presidential race.
