Anyone who listens to just the video would come away believing that Ron Paul is exactly the kind of individual we want in politics.

Nowhere does he focus on racism, fear of black people, hatred for Israel, etc.

He just talks about his experience in DC, a vague description of his economic concerns, and his distrust in career politicians.

He doesn't really even talk about his newsletter so much as mentioning his educational foundation and all of the work that it did, including the making of several educational videos.

I don't know what the real fuss is. Ron Paul should have known what was in a newsletter under his name. If racist and antisemitic material was allowed to be published over years without him putting a stop to it, then it shows that he is at least incompetent and insensitive.

However, the charge that he is some sort of crazed racist, antisemitic radical cannot be sustained by the video.

There’s little doubt that Paul wrote whatever is in his news letter. The issue is his lying about who wrote it instead of just coming out and defending it. Its a bit like Weiner claiming his Twitter account was hacked...
