holy crap, it's like they put Ron Paul in a time machine!
Born 1963...
I can seriously see a LOT of RP fans getting behind this guy. Espectially as he can consult pops on issues. Could a senator from KY be the repub's guy in 2016?
Paul is a critic of the erosion of civil liberties, the Federal Reserve,[7] the Patriot Act,[28] and the federal government's bailout of Wall Street. He is, like his father, a self-described traditional or "real" Republican, favoring significantly smaller government and balanced budgets, and opposing the Department of Education, the war in Iraq,[27] and the federal income tax.[29] He encourages legislators to pledge not to raise taxes,[20] and fought the failed plan to raise hotel taxes in Kentucky in 2000.[22][25]
Paul is also involved in health care reform.[15] In a 2007 Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons, he advocated eliminating the Medicare fee-splitting provision for postoperative ophthalmic care, regarding it as a "kickback scheme" from ophthalmologists to optometrists, and adding, "True reform also would require an infusion of ethics, something that can't be taught or purchased".[12]
