Count me in, but I'm simply referring to Rep Paul's contributors.
If there's one place that the Palin camp loves the Paul People, it's on fiscal and monetary policy. Well, probably State's Rights federalism first, but fiscal and monetary policy second.
Palin's our girl. She's got the grass-roots on her side; she's plugged Ron Paul back in 2008 and endorsed Rand Paul in 2010; and on domestic policy, she's cited Rand Paul as an examplar of her own beliefs.
We're going to get our crack at the Fed, Captain. We shall ride to power on the coattails of our very own Republican Liberty Caucus-endorsed Governor Sarah Palin. Starting with the Senate seat we're about to win in Kentucky.
Truth be told about Ron Paul. He's more of a Bircher than a Libertarian and he's certainly NOT a Republican.

Ron Paul endorses . . . the John Birch Society
Dr. Paul stated, "The John Birch Society is a great patriotic organization featuring an educational program solidly based on constitutional principles. I congratulate the Society in this, its 50th year. I wish them continued success and endorse their untiring efforts to foster 'less government, more responsibility ... and with God's help ... a better world.'"
Dr. Paul has also agreed to be the keynote speaker at the Society's 50th anniversary celebration, Oct. 2-5, 2008 in Appleton.
The time has come to stop distinguishing Ron Paul from his tin foil hatted supporters. He is not above them, he is of them. He agrees with them, he joins them in their gatherings, and he cheers them in their spreading of nutty conspiracy theories. This is the real Ron Paul.
This is the same John Birch Society that accused President Eisenhower of being a Communist. The one that William F. Buckley, whom many of us remember today, rightly threw out of the conservative movement.
If the sheet fits, I am sure that Ron Paul will wear it!
Seriously, did you read that blogger's babble? Do you think that the Fed is responsible for every single check that went through a bank in the last century?
And no, I am not just joking around. When Ron Paul talks banking conspiracies, he is very definitely talking about the Jews. He knows it and so do his followers.
The JBS never called Eisenhower a communist, he was called an agent for communism, and it had to do with among other things, Eisenhower turning his back on the Hungarian freedom fighters in their fight against the Soviets when he blocked other nations from aiding them. Eisenhower also ignored clear warnings about Fidel Castro and his intentions, and had no problem with Castro taking power.
Eisenhower was no communist, but at times he sure didn’t show an interest in helping to stop it.
Ron Paul would have more credibility if he would stop making kooky comments particularly on 9/11 and foreign policy issues, but he does make many valid points on domestic and constitutional issues.
JBS founder, Robert Welch, circulated a letter calling President Dwight D. Eisenhower a “conscious, dedicated agent of the Communist Conspiracy.”
So you say Ike was only a Communist agent, not a Communist? That’s big of you.
So everything that goes through a bank is the fault of the Federal Reserve?
Take your time.
When I watch his (and Grayson's) idiotic questions I want Bernanke to say, "WTF are you talking about"?
Evidently, you have a reading comprehension problem. I was not commenting on Fed policy or prior actions.
While I am not a “Ron Paul follower” (more of a Duncan Hunter guy), I do know a great deal about Paul and know many of his supporters. The suggestion of anti-semitism is a smear.
While the Fed is only responsible for every check insofar as it oversees check clearing, I have no views at all about some possible Fed involvement in Watergate. FWIW, even if there was some Fed involvement in Watergate (and I am not saying that there was), the Fed is probably involved in much more serious and recent wrongdoing. That’s where the focus ought to be, not on something that happened 38 years ago.
Yeah right. Jews like Paul's two main heroes, Murray Rothbard and Ludwig Von Mises. Go back to the sewer.
“So you say Ike was only a Communist agent, not a Communist? That’s big of you.”
“Agent” isn’t a word I would use. Stooge perhaps.
