Ron Paul is a very healthy man. Being a doctor helps :)

But his biggest problem getting elected, has little to do with age. The problem, is he makes the right calls. The right calls are political suicide.

Yes, the National Education System sucks, and the best way to help our kids learn, is to get rid of it, but for the masses that just sounds like crazy talk.

I wouldn’t say that he always makes the right calls because (at times) I believe his suggestions end up being a little too extreme; and it is likely that they would resolve existing problems by introducing new problems. 

The right answer would make more problems. That's because it's the right answer, and not the easy answer.

For example, if someone had gone to John Adams when he was president, and said "We have hundreds in Georgia going hungry", he would have been extremely upset. He most likely would have done something as an American to try and help. But it would not of even entered his mind that the federal government should come to the aid of these people.

It was never the federal governments job to make sure you eat. It still shouldn't be. That's the right answer.
