the guy whose platform is going back on the gold standard and abolishing embassies to other countries?
i'll give him credit for having a consistant platform and world view, but if he had his way we'd hand control of everything over to corporations -- and that's what his son is doing everything in his power to make happen.
The question wasn't who do you agree with that also writes good and can do other things good too, it was are there any politicians who write with the thoughtfulness approaching Jefferson (who would have agreed on the gold standard btw). Ron's ideas on freedom are excellent, they just aren't tempered with a strong understanding of market power and how it in itself can cause all the abuses the freedom from government he proposes is supposed to stop because there is little attempt to apply said freedoms to private companies who clearly have market power.
