Wikipedia editors want to delete Dr Paul's campaign photo from his Wikipedia article.

Can anyone help me locate some kind of public release for that photo so we can show it's public domain and keep it there?

Geez, the Wikipedians are such a-holes. Someone just wants it taken down. A smaller version of that picture *IS* on his official campaign website: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/img/congressional-record.jpg. As an official campaign photo, it's in the public domain.

Not according to Wikipedia standards... :rolleyes: Dorks.

I emailed Dr Paul's grandson asking to post some sort of release document/statement next to the photo on just one of the websites.
