Who else would inspire a video like this?:
Joe Klein reports from Iowa:
I watched Ron Paul deliver his stump speech–to large and loving crowds–twice yesterday and he did a very strange thing for a political front-runner. He emphasized the things traditional Republicans are least likely to approve in his libertarian appeal. He began each speech with a long, discursive section on foreign policy–citing George Washington, Dwight Eisenhower and George W. Bush, among others, on the perils of entangling alliances, the military-industrial complex and nation-building. He minced no words. He said the money we saved overseas could be used to bolster programs like Social Security and Medicare, until we transition away from them. Then he devoted another long section to civil liberties, to his opposition to the Patriot Act and the illegality–he believes–of assassinating Anwar al-Awlaki, an al-Qaeda leader who was an American citizen, in Yemen. This was not political comfort food.
