Lower,

I'm rather surprised by that. I realize that the left might find him attractive because of his anti-war stance and libertarian views on most social issues. But I can't imagine any liberal on the planet agreeing with his economic and monetary philosophies. They are so far apart it would be cause for an automatic DQ from consideration for president. I think 90%+ of his money is coming from the right.

He is for abolishing the Fed, IMF, virtually all social programs, eliminating the IRS etc... (of course this is what I like best about him because I think all those institutions are inherently evil and/or typically used by intrinsically evil people to transfer power and wealth to themselves from the bottom up). Then again, I would suspect that many on the left don't really understand that. They only understand their feelings about the people those things are supposed to be helping, not the reality of the situation.

Sending them money only encourages them. <G> I have to admit that I like Ron Paul. He is saner than Mike Gravel and looks less like something from "Lord of The Rings" than Kucinich. But Dennis does have a hot wife. Probably looking for that leprechaun gold.
