Ron Paul is the biggest joke in US politics and he is no chance of winning the Republican's Presidential candidacy. Paul is just a Tea Party radical pushing conspiracy theories without any evidence/proof to back up their claims. |
Ron Paul (really) isn't that extreme, his problem is that his greatest strengths are on issues that people are too ignorant about to really understand what he is saying (or to care) ...
For example, I don't think anyone can actually defend the existence of pseudo-governmental private businesses (like the Federal Reserve, Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac) that are implicitly backed by the government ensuring the privatization of profit and the socialization of losses; and the only reason Ron Paul doesn't get the opportunity to wipe the floor with the politicians that are in the pocket of these organizations is that the typical voter would be bored by a substantive discussion of real issues.
