Ron Paul's Peace, Love, and Revolution Canvas
The United States is a country of constitutionalists: each one opposed to taxation, mass surveillance, the military-industrial complex, and the Federal Reserve. Unfortunately, our constitutionalists usually dislike the government so much that they would sooner mop fast food restaurant bathroom floors than pursue careers in politics.
Ron Paul is an exception. He was a captain in the Air Force, then a representative for two Texan congressional districts, then the Libertarian Party presidential nominee in 1988, and then a Republican Party presidential candidate in 2008 and 2012. He even fathered one of Kentucky’s sitting senators (who, despite his father’s politics, was not named after a Russian novelist).
Ron Paul is 87 years old and still sharp as a tack at the time of writing. Perhaps he will one day slip into advanced senility, at which point he would only be qualified to run as a Democratic Party presidential candidate. It is unlikely they would have him, however. Mr. Paul’s staunch opposition to birthright citizenship would deprive the Dems of one of their key sources of votes, and his enmity toward taxation is the purest form of evil in libs’ eyes.
Mr. Paul may have bowed out of politics, but you can continue his legacy. Keep the rEVOLution alive!
