My answer to his question.


I'd invite the only one that wouldn't try to make the taxpayers pay for his meal. Ron Paul of course.

My response:

Ron Paul because he is the only candidate that would talk intelligently about a number of things other than how great he is. The other candidates would probably just focus on their own perceived greatness. Ron Paul is such a humble, educated, and wise man. We need a scholar of history and economics to bring hope back to the people.

I'd invite Dr. Ron Paul. I think he would be the only one comfortable in the "free speech zone" of a large family setting. I'd also be hesitant to ask some of the candidates if they wanted gravy on their potatoes. Did they vote for the gravy before they voted against it? Please just pass your plate.

I told him I would ask the only candidate that would tell me about the Modern Day Money Changers (Federal Reserve), and why they need to be kicked out of DC. Like Jesus did, in the days of old.

This Thanksgiving I will be giving thanks to Ron Paul for restoring my hope for America. Having him over for dinner would allow me to personally thank him and express my gratitude for reminding us that We are the People. Plus, he's the only one that could engage the adults in conversation (instead of hitting them up for taxes), and play with the kids (instead of trying to draft them into the military).

Isn't this refreshing? Any other campaign would send an e-mail from the national office saying:

"Send this form letter to Cafferty saying: 'I'd invite [candidate name here]because he understands the challenges facing America.'"

Jack, there aren't many Presidential candidates I would allow in my home or near my valuables, let alone invite to Thanksgiving dinner. However, I would dust off the fine China and roll out the red carpet for one man; Dr. Ron Paul. So enamored am I with the humble and avuncular Congressman from Texas that I would not only consider it an honor to have him join my family this Thanksgiving, but I would insist that he carve the turkey, open the meal by saying Grace, and let us fatten him up with some of the best pumpkin pie and sweet potato casserole below the Mason-Dixon Line.

It would have to be Ron Paul. I'm not sure I would ask about politics though. I suspect there is much more in this man's collective wisdom than the often repeated advertisments for the nomination. It would be an honor and the chance of a lifetime. No other politicians running or not, would even come close!

Even Cafferty has constraints on his "free" speech whilst he is on the MSM. Here's a youtube of Jack talking about why third party candidates have no chance, because the two major parties have conspired to make it so. In it, he makes the throwaway comment "They only let me do one of these a year". One expose of the truth a year?!

That's a possibility. But there's a greater possibility that it's legitimate.
