Ron Paul

Ron Paul é sensacional. Um libertário de verdade, inclusive a favor da legalização das drogas:

"All initiation of force is a violation of someone else's rights, whether initiated by an individual or the state, for the benefit of an individual or group of individuals, even if it's supposed to be for the benefit of another individual or group of individuals."

"Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it’s realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy. A few have, and others will continue to do so, but too many—both in and out of government—close their eyes to the issue of personal liberty and ignore the fact that endless borrowing to finance endless demands cannot be sustained. True prosperity can only come from a healthy economy and sound money. That can only be achieved in a free society."

Dificilmente vencerá as prévias do Partido Republicano, mas pode sair candidato pelo Partido Libertário e fazer um barulhinho bom a nível mundial, alcançando talvez 2 dígitos nas eleições americanas.

Curioso é notar que a cobertura da grande imprensa nacional nem ao menos menciona o seu nome. É como se ele não existisse.


Já elegeram um queridinho politicamente correto: Barack Hussein Obama.
