Would be funny if he announced a run for the presidency when everybody is waiting for ron to announce.
I have a good feeling that John is gonna be a complete douchebag tonight.

I dunno, John went easy on Rumsfeld, so he'd better go easy on Rand.
It could go two ways. Either Jon just keeping trying to make Rand out to be nuts. OR, they both just hate on establishment Republicans the whole time. Jon will bring up Sarah Palin. Rand is say that he appreciated her endorsement, which will make him look like he's grouped in with her. That's why I like Ron. He gives the interviewer nowhere to go. Rand understandably plays politics. Which I think hurts him with the general population IMO.

Stewart is not the kind of guy to say that there is "something wrong with what your saying...I just don't know what".
He will be very succinct in replying to Rand's positions. Rand needs to focus & be prepared for what could possibly
happen.

Attacking Palin who did nothing but help him in the Kentucky election would be classless. I don't think it's the time nor the place to appeal to the Daily Show audience. They're going to hate his guts regardless. I'm already reading some on the comments on the daily show forums as well as the show thread and they're bordering on the atrocious.

Jon Stewart has been very fair with Ron Paul in the past, so why would it be any different with Rand?
"No matter how noble you try to make it, your good intentions will not compensate for the mistakes that people make; that want to run
our lives and run the economy, and reject the principles of private property and making up our own decisions for ourselves." -Ron Paul
if modern agriculture continues to follow the path it's on now, it's finished. The food-growing situation may seem to be in good shape today, but that's just an illusion based on the current availability of petroleum fuels. All the wheat, corn, and other crops that are produced on big American farms may be alive and growing, but they're not products of real nature or real agriculture. They're manufactured rather than grown. The earth isn't producing those things.. petroleum is! -Masanobu Fukuoka
Yeah, I suppose that's it. This is still one of Ron's best interviews ever:
http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tu...-2009/ron-paul
"No matter how noble you try to make it, your good intentions will not compensate for the mistakes that people make; that want to run
our lives and run the economy, and reject the principles of private property and making up our own decisions for ourselves." -Ron Paul
And here's Ron's first appearance on the Daily Show... one of the best early interviews:
http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mo...-2007/ron-paul
"No matter how noble you try to make it, your good intentions will not compensate for the mistakes that people make; that want to run
our lives and run the economy, and reject the principles of private property and making up our own decisions for ourselves." -Ron Paul
I'm pretty sure Rands ideas for Social security of raising the age and especially means testing is right up Jons socialists ally and he'll probably get praised.
Someone on DP said they saw a trailer for it while watching Tosh.0, and that it looked unfriendly. I have no idea what that means. I went back just now to find it, but didn't - the post topic had dropped off the front page and I couldn't find it in Rand's forum there.

The daily show writers are basically Obama lackeys. I'm not sure Jon Stewart has the will to resist such a high-profile target, with his staff drooling behind the scenes.
The only way I could see the interview turning sour is if they talk about Wisconsin, and Rand adopts the general Republican position instead of his more nuanced opinion. Rand believes that public unions should have the right to collectively bargain, but in most Republicans don't think so, and Rand hasn't really been vocal about that difference in recent interviews.

Stewart has been ripping into Obama for quite a while now:

Rand has a considerably different image with much of the public than Ron does. Many average Americans got their first exposure to Ron as the sole war-dissenter and defender of civil liberties at the Republican presidential debates, which garnered a lot of love from the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert crowds, while the similar "first-major-national-exposure" event for Rand came in the form of the whole Civil Rights Act brouhaha, followed by the BP comment controversy, and they know him as the figurehead of the hated Tea Party; thus, even though Rand is really very similar to his father on virtually all major national issues, his image in the minds of many liberals is far more negative.
^very true, and many of the Daily Show writers are indeed not as independent thinking as Jon. But since Jon is the one doing the interview, I'm thinking the interview will be fair and thought provoking.
