I was a tea-party guy for several months. I attended the first rallies long before the general elections. The gatherings consisted mostly of Independents, with smaller groups of Libertarians, those goofy religious Constitutionalists and a tiny number of republicans, no democrats unfortunately. Soon after Obama, the movement became neo-con central. I left after feeling threatened because of my support for Nader and the single-payer system. I'm against war and our tax system, not common sense.

Hey Paul: Corporations show not be able to do what the average person can't do.

funny how she got tough after he was off the phone.. if you really believed that strongly, why not put your values up to scrutiny like ron paul's have been? ugh.. it was a decent interview, but the post commentary was a hatchet job

@liknital07 Bless you for seeing through the madness. It amazes me that so many don't.

The TEA party was infiltrated with despots, period. Ron Paul did not create the TEA party himself, the people did. Better off calling it the "Constitution Party". That may weed out the despots. Either way, no other person than Ron Paul will ever hold the title: "The Champion of the Constitution". He earned that title with his unwavering consistency and voting record, throughout many years of battling corruption.

Title is a bit misleading...

The gold standard is not needed. You can end the fed and the money mandrake mechanism. Then end the national debt. As the bonds come due, pay them off in treasury notes. When all the notes are gone no more national debt. There would be no inflation as the money is out there anyways. Then mandate full reserve checking accounts. all other accounts would be non-insured. She said she lost it all in mortgages. I don't believe it all mortgage bonds are still worth something.

Randi Rhodes is the problem. She believes in spending blowing the public money on the unions, NPR, post offices workers, teachers, ... while the poor and homeless die on the streets. Her solution die early. google villaraigosa layoffs. Why pay taxes if it is just going to be wasted on boondoggles and unions.

[scarcastic]

Love her....but she was a little tough on him in some post commentary.
