Before you get on the Paul train, I suggest you look into his protoge, Gary Johnson.
He shares about 85% of the same views, but held the governors office of New Mexico. He vetoed 750 bills that attempted to expand the size of NM government.
He had a live twitter chat, answering any on-comer's question(s), which even some random guy like myself was able to get a question about his candidacy answered (asked him about foreign policy on Cuba).
Add in the fact he's a lot younger, and looks like he could pummel Obama into a pulp, and I think you have a guy that shares the values of Paul, and advances them as he has a track record of going against the GOP and Dem establishment in tangible ways - far beyond what even Ron has done.

Ron Paul faces an age issue and does lack executive exerience. In regards to Paul vs Johnson:

It would be worth posting a link to how they differ though.

Don't go putting "age issues" or "experience issues" or "race issues" or "belief issues" into how you vote. Vote for who you think is the best candidate, screw the "unelectable because of" bs. Ever consider maybe those with the lack of experience might be good presidents?

I am looking at the practical reality of electability in this. Ron Paul's age is a factor here, as would be the executive experience angle.
So, do you consider Obama's lack of experience prior to getting into the White House a source of strength?
