Ron Paul Spam Traced to Reactor Botnet

Withdrawing from international organizations... We have many of our laws dictated to us by multinational organizations. It's an attack on our sovreignty. Ron Paul is a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Economics... He got into politics because of his interest in economic theory. He's been on the House Banking Committee, the Joint Economic Committee, and the Committee on Financial Services. He delights in dragging the federal reserve chairman to the House to berate him for the secretive manipulation of the US$. And the Wall Street traders cheer him on.
