Earlier this week, Ron Paul endorsed Constitution Party nominee Chuck Baldwin for president. Great news for Baldwin, of course, and terrible news for Bob Barr. But there are several implications that might not be immediately obvious; to wit:
1.) The “paleo” coalition lives. From the late ’80s until the mid-’90s, there was a great deal [...]
Up now at TAC, my article on Ron Paul’s Rally for the Republic — and what the Revolution might look forward to in 2012.
I met Johnson briefly while in Minneapolis for the Rally for the Republic and was impressed by what an unassuming pol he is. I occasionally criticized him back when he was governor of New Mexico, figuring he couldn’t be as libertarian as he seemed. And indeed, he’s not perfect (who is?), but he’s pretty darn [...]
I’m in town for the various Ron Paul events leading up to the great Rally for the Republic on Tuesday. I’ll be blogging a bit (most @TAC) about the public events. And I have some Willmoore Kendall stuff I might post here later tonight. For now, though, just a quick, content-free post while I check [...]
I’ve blogged some of my general impressions of the rally, which was yesterday, here. I heard a 6,000-attendee estimate from a couple of sources, though Kelley Vlahos may be right in thinking it was fewer. (I don’t really know what 6,000 or 2,500 people would look like.) In any case, it was a great [...]
A rather good remembrance of Kent Snyder, campaign chairman of Ron Paul 2008, in the Wall Street Journal. Scroll down below the Jeese Helms obit.
The widget in my post below isn’t working properly: it will take you to the donation page for Kent’s medical fund without any problem, but the counter isn’t updating the total. [...]
There are two good causes relating to Kent Snyder that need your support. First, Kent was very ill for over two months, and his family has significant medical bills. You can help his family pay off these expenses by donating directly using the widget below or visiting the Kent Synder medical fund website that [...]
I’m at a loss for words about the death of Kent Snyder late last week, which I heard about just yesterday. Kent was the campaign chairman of the Ron Paul Presidential Campaign Committee and had been involved with Dr. Paul since his 1988 Libertarian Party run. Kent was a spirit of tranquility on the campaign [...]
Answering the call of a good cause, I’ll be blogging a bit for Ron Paul’s new organization, the Campaign for Liberty, on top of my @TAC stuff and ye olde Tory Anarchist.
This story has come out of the blue: Bob Conley, a South Carolina Democrat who voted for Ron Paul in the state’s Republican primary — he quit the GOP over Iraq, immigration, and trade — won the Democratic Senate nomination. (Although his margin was so slim that it’s gone to a recount.) The first thing [...]
