I don't agree with Ron Paul on a number of things, but I respect him. There is a difference between Paul and, in my view, many of his supporters (note that I exempted people on this forum), mostly the younger ones. To them he is just another Candy Man, offering easy access to drugs, debt relief, and freedom from military service--not all that different from Obama really. I myself believe that Ron Paul's message is a far sterner one, but I don't expect many 25-year-olds who grew up in a time of unprecedented stuff and license to realize that.
