It looks like I might be voting for a Texas Republican for President next year...

Rumors are that Ron Paul will be running for President in 2008.

A libertarian against the war in Iraq?

A_J and Ishmael will be along shortly to proclaim him a Libertarian in name only.

Some people don't know the difference between a neo-conservative and a Libertarian because neo-conservatives like to call themselves libertarians (small 'l') just like socialists/"progressives" like to call themselves "liberals" (again small 'l').

I am all for truth in advertising. Ron Paul is a Libertarian, has been for longer than most people here knew what a Libertarian was. He may belong to the Republican party so he could get elected to office, but as far as I know he has always acted and voted like a Libertarian.

Ron Paul is a good legislator. He is one of few who is not in the pocket of sombody. He is a libertarian, not a republican. I have met him. He is one of the few good guys in Austin.
