In one of the best interviews in recent memory, Ron Paul was interviewed for over 18 minutes today by Glenn Beck on his radio show. He was the lead-in interview for the show. Beck normally will always mention the caveat that he disagrees with Ron Paul on foreign policy. He didn’t do that this time. Instead he allowed Ron Paul to articulate many of his own views on the devaluation of the dollar, even agreeing with him on the topic.
Ron Paul was able to promote both the Campaign For Liberty and the Rally For The Republic. This, I believe is the first time he was able to do so to a main stream audience. Pay close attention at Ron Paul almost slipping up and saying what the Rally truly is, an alternative convention. Beck brought up the idea of the move towards the “Amero” currency first. Sometimes I feel that Glenn Beck is the main stream version of Alex Jones with the very large exception of foreign policy. Beck also asks Ron Paul if he will vote for McCain. Paul reiterates that he will not and then they delve into libertarianism and the “lesser of two evils” argument. Paul says voting for the lesser of two evils is “the dumbest thing”.

I saw the Ron Paul ruination article the other day and I have to say it was pretty hilarious. Because I kind of had the same thought except my problem was that I just didn’t really like any of the libertarian nominees and even though i’m glad they went with Barr i’m still a little bit dissapointed with the nominee. First of all he’s very polarizing among libertarians and even though he’s gotten all of this media attention I don’t think he’s really used it that well overall. So anyways, a few weeks ago I saw a speech by Rand Paul (Ron Paul’s son) and I was just thinking about how he would’ve been the perfect candidate. He would’ve gotten a lot of attention for being Ron’s son and he’s also just a really good speaker. Here’s a link to a really good speech he gave: http://youtube.com/watch?v=rx-3X8gGASw
