As someone from england who is not really connected with US politics, I have a couple of questions.

Is this guy really generating the sort of buzz it looks like he is? I know 2+2 love him, but he looked written off until I saw the text polls on fox saying he won the debate.

Secondly, how the hell did someone like that get elected, and how can we get more people like him over here.

He's generating a tremendous amount of buzz. It won't translate into success in the polls though because the pollsters are constructing the polls to marginalize him.

He got elected because he's from an obscure district in Texas.

This is a video about the Fiat money system and is quite good and has snippets of interviews with Ron Paul. It is a documentary.

I had never heard of him until Thursday, when I heard I heard a talk radio guy talking about how his campaign was effectively over. Then I saw the discussion of him here, and, when I looked into it, I found out that I agree with almost every one of his positions.

I still haven't seen any discussion of him in the main stream media except for the breif interview on CNN.

He was just talked a lot about on the View. Definitly becoming more mainstream.

Was that Jay Severin on 96.9? I actually heard him seriously lauding RP's foreign policy after the debate.

Bill Maher called Dr. Paul his hero tonight after his performance in this weeks debate. He also called out Chris Dodd for distorting what he said in the debate in an interview with him.
Maher said he wanted to get Paul back on his show and I'm guessing he will get treated better this time around.

[/ QUOTE ]

Here's the link for that section of Maher's show

I love how Maher actually smacks down Chris Dodd when he also tries the straw man attack on Ron Paul.

Of course, Maher still isn't going to like RP's position on healthcare and education but at least he's backing him up on the foreigh policy front.
