Ron Paul's Voting Record

P.s. Just because I don't worship a sociopath doesn't mean I'm a pro-war freedom-hating American.

I seriously doubt it; he had a gay campaign adviser last election.

Did Ron Paul ever hold racist views? Almost certainly; he was born and raised in a racist society, but he appears to have moved far beyond it.

When I detected the grumble of booing rising to greet the Golden Rule, the first thought (after my uneasiness) that crossed my mind was that he had moved so far beyond his own party, they could not identify the morality, that they have always claimed to support.
