Whatever else happens, my own suggestion would be that Dr. Paul immediately hire an impartial
ombudsman--ideally someone who:
- Has experience in Republican presidential campaigns;
- Shares and can articulate Dr. Paul's philosophy in a way that makes it meaningful to the average American;
- Understands the bewildering array of grassroots constitutencies supporting Dr. Paul; and
- Who can command their respect.
That person should be given
full authority to implement
swiftly the best constructive criticism received from the grassroots. Whatever managerial problems there are with the campaign, they must be addressed
now--whatever that requires.
