Ron Paul is a goldbug, supporter of real money, and therefore completely on topic here ... it's politics yes, but the sort of politics directly relevant to our juniors ... wouldn't do to let discussion of it turn to partisan bickering and bore everybody, but to such extent that this fellow can raise awareness of economic circumstances du jour he will have effect on our speculations
Can't have a blanket prohibition on politics - orebodies are rather geographically fixed by nature, very much subject to the turns of local tides ... markets for metals are subject to various political winds as well
'Paul's personal financial disclosures reveal extensive private investments in gold and silver, through equities and warrants in companies including Newmont, IAM Gold, Barrick Gold, Golden Star Resources, Golden Cycle Gold Corp, Pan American Silver, Great Basin Gold, Eldorado Gold, Freeport McMoran Gold & Copper, Apollo Gold Corp and Placer Dome.[34]'
