    He was in politics, just not as a politician.

    Yeah, tough to claim that somebody took part in an official Senate campaign debate at the age of 21 was never in politics before.

    Nope. Which really surprises me that no footage has been dug up yet. I would pay to see that.

    IIRC, he had to go back to DC for a vote.

    'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988
