Why Is Ron Paul Still In Prez Race?

To gauge how far Ron Paul and his libertarian revolution have come, consider the GOP candidate’s role in the 2008 Republican National Con­ven­tion in St. Paul, Minn. : Mr. Paul wasn’t invited to speak and, along with 10,000 of his supporters, held a counter-convention in protest. This year he’s angling for a spot on the coveted speakers list. This much is clear: This time, the Grand Old Party can’t dismiss Paul outright. Thanks to a confluence of crises central to his platform (a record level of federal debt, mounting concern about deficit spending, multiple foreign conflicts), Paul and his anti- Federal Reserve , anti-interventionist, small-government message are keenly relevant in this year’s election conversation/ Husna Haq , Christian Science Monitor.
