Ron Paul's New Primary Goal Is "Internet Freedom"

Charliemopps writes "Ron and Rand Paul are shifting the central focus of their family's libertarian crusade to a new cause: Internet Freedom. From the article: 'Kentucky senator Rand and his father Ron Paul, who has not yet formally conceded the Republican presidential nomination, will throw their weight behind a new online manifesto set to be released today by the Paul-founded Campaign for Liberty. The new push, Paul aides say, will in some ways displace what has been their movement's long-running top priority, shutting down the Federal Reserve Bank. The move is an attempt to stake a libertarian claim to a central public issue of the next decade, and to move from the esoteric terrain of high finance to the everyday world of cable modems and Facebook.' This seems like welcome news to me. Let's see if they can get more traction here than they did with the Fed."

Equal pay for women, enabling bio/stem-cell research, cash for clunkers and a lot of military reform (openly gay is a-ok, not to mention addressing the body armor neglect controversy, the walter reed controversy, and ending iraq).

Also there's the whole Somali pirates and Bin Laden thing..

He was reelected 11 times, often by overwhelming margins. So it seems his constituents disagree with you.

His constituents disagree with everyone.

Do you have any idea who Ron Paul represents in Texas 14th congressional district? Have you ever been to Galveston?
