This isn't a Ron Paul clip, but he's one of the tags and I stumbled across it. Pretty decent summary for an 8 minute clip.

Also, RP has basically grown even with Thompson on the intrade lines. His range is 7.5-8.5 while Thompson is 8.1-8.3 (and both are about a full point ahead of McCain).

The fact that he's polling so low and a market still believes that for some reason there's an 8% chance he will win is pretty damn encouraging for the message of liberty.

I mean, to me it's exactly that, an 8% chance. Big whoop. But I'm confident that people sort of "get it" since the market sees his potential even though the polls are still bad. Although, the money has a lot to do with it. But still, I'm encouraged.

It is what it is.

To me an open betting market is as reliable of an odds maker as you can get. I'm not sure what you're getting at, or if this is some sort of joke or reference that I'm not getting.

That is pretty cool.
Problem is, it's only reaching the same Internet-savvy demographic that is already fully aware of Ron Paul.

I love Ron's analogy in Part 3:

Domestic Policy: We either ban or subsidize
Foreign Policy: We either bomb or subsidize

This is a really great interview. It's an hour long, but Ron Paul really gets into what he thinks about all the different issues. Anyone who has questions about or misconceptions about (*cough* Iron) Ron Paul's views would be much better informed if they can find the time to watch this.
