Pauls disaffection started early in Reagans presidency. Ronald Reagan has given us a deficit 10 times greater than what we had with the Democrats, Paul told the Christian Science Monitor in 1987. It didnt take more than a month after 1981, to realize there would be no changes.
“I want to totally disassociate myself from the Reagan Administration”- Ron Paul

MR. RUSSERT: You’re running as a Republican. In your—on your Web site, in your brochures, you make this claim: “Principled Leadership. Ron was also one of only four Republican Congressmen to endorse Ronald Reagan for president against Gerald Ford in” ‘76. There’s a photograph of you, Ronald Reagan on the right, heralding your support of Ronald Reagan. And yet you divorced yourself from Ronald Reagan.
You said this: “Although he was once an ardent supporter of President Reagan, Paul now speaks of him as a traitor leading the country into debt and conflicts around the world.
“I want to totally disassociate myself from the Reagan Administration.” And you go on to The Dallas Morning News: “Paul now calls Reagan a `dramatic failure.’”
Your spamming is getting old. Reagan and the screwball anti-Semite Ron Paul have little to nothing in common. And as has been shown to you countless times, RP totally disassociated himself from the Reagan admin. early in the the latter’s first term. Time to give the BS a permanent rest — no one’s buying.
Wow, how different these two men were.
A giant of history and a pipsqueak weirdo.
.Just because you are photographed with the President doesn’t mean you are in any way in his “inner circle” or that you are close to him in any way, really.
It really doesn’t say anything at all, except that you were physically in the same room with the man, at a photo-op.
Ru Paul should very grateful that Ronaldus Magnus condescended to be photographed with him.
Yet he called Ronald Reagan a failure..
