In this 2012 election Ron Paul is the lone voice of reason. You won't hear much of him on the news and you certainly won't hear of any big corporate backing or from lobbyists.
If you want to give Ron Paul, read this book. You don't even really need to read this book. You can watch videos of his on Youtube. But this book sums up perfectly well what Ron Paul stands for
Without sounding too much of a fan, i seriously think EVERY person, even if non-American should listen to him from a neutral point. Forget if you are a Republican or Democrat, Christian or Atheist, rich or poor, white or black, he will speak to people from all groups
