Ron Paul is the Cynthia McKinney of the Republican Party.
I've always thought of Paul as "our" Dennis Kucinich.
I really don't mind Paul running for President, but he should be honest about it and run as a Libertarian. I also don't mind hearing his views as he does make a few good points here and there, but another presidential campaign means we are going to be subjected to his paulbot pot head, peacenik and truther spammer brigades annoying everyone on political, gaming, weather, business, etc, forums throughout the world.
