    thanks to dp via someone's ad laden twitter account. (I didn't incorporate that)

    It's a great video, though.

    Is this the MacNeil/Lehrer segment Ron was referring to?

    probably so, I should think...

    @ 3:15 Ron Paul explodes with some amazing liberty-fu. So boss.

    I'm only 5 minutes into it and I'm loving every second of it. It's a real testament as to how far this movement has come. This is sit-down required viewing for every Ron Pauler outthere. For an early chuckle, check @ 01:50.
    "There was madness in any direction, at any hour. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning.

    And that I think, was the handle. That sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave." ~ HST

    bump because Ron discusses how he might come around to thinking taking matching funds is ok if you are not running for one of the major parties in answer to one of the questions. Besides, it is just a good video.

    Thanks for posting, sailing. What a great 49 minutes of pure vintage (libertarian) Ron Paul!

    He said he'd never campaign again. I guess that why he doesn't speak in absolutes anymore. lol

    I like how he said at the beginning of the cycle, he'd have like 15-20 people show up, and by the end before the election, he'd have 150!!

    Ron Paul: "The debt is two trillion, and it can't be paid."

    Another 14 trillion later, how right he was.

    I can't imagine he'll be completely out.

    Lots of insight on how RP feels about the Libertarian Party.

    Things have become even worse than they were in 1988, privacy-wise and police-state-wise, imo.

    This is one of my favorite old videos of Ron.

    I wish Ron was young again so he could run again in 4 years.
