Ronald Ernest Paul (born August 20, 1935) is a 10th-term Congressman, obstetrician (M.D.), and a 2008 presidential candidate from the U.S. state of Texas, seeking the nomination of the Republican Party.
As a Republican, he has represented Texas's 14th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives since 1997, and represented Texas's 22nd district in 1976 and from 1979 to 1985.
Paul advocates a limited role for the federal government, low taxes, free markets, a non-interventionist foreign policy, and a return to monetary policies based on commodity-backed currency. He has earned the nickname "Dr. No" because he is a medical doctor who votes against the bills that he believes conflict with the Constitution.1 In the words of former Treasury Secretary William Simon, Paul is the "one exception to the Gang of 535" on Capitol Hill.2 He has never voted to raise taxes or congressional pay, and refuses to participate in the congressional pension system.3 He has consistently voted against the USA PATRIOT Act, the Military Commissions Act of 2006, and the Iraq War.

Person 1: "Here's a tough question: name a person currently in our government who actually upholds the constitution, is incredibly intelligent, and listens to the wisdom of the founding fathers."
Person 2: "HAHAHA!! Everyone knows no such person exists anymore, they all died with our freedoms and liberties."
Person 1: "Actually, there is one person left who represents those characteristics-- his name is Ron Paul, and he's running for president."

A very simple minded man who knows very little about how the actual world works, but some how gains followers that share his simple minded ways.
Did you see Ron Paul during the Republican debate?
Yes, he seemed really smart!
You think that because you could hardly pass the 9th grade.

The moral and constitutional obligations of our representatives in Washington are to protect our liberty, not coddle the world, precipitating no-win wars, while bringing bankruptcy and economic turmoil to our people.

He's not going to win an election.
So in 2012, don't vote for him.
Becuase if you do, you'll be supporting Palin, and nobody wants that.

A batshit insane politician who presents himself as Libertarian fringe candidate, but in reality is no different than your average Conservative-Republican. Claims to be a champion of personal liberty when he has voiced opposition to gay rights and separation of church and state and has come out as rather hostile towards immigrants, minorities and pretty much anyone who isn't white. People who support him are mostly college kids and young adults who jumped on the bandwagon when they heard he wants to legalize drugs or ex-republicans who still wanted to hate the left and the government.
If you support Ron Paul, I urge you to read a little more about him, and think for yourself if he's truly that great. I'm not saying don't support him, I myself actually agree with him on some issues, but don't just join a political movement just because it's becoming this cool new thing to do.
