Ron Paul won't seek congressional term in 2012
Congressman Ron Paul told The Facts exclusively this morning he will not be seeking another term for the District 14 seat.
Paul, 75, will instead focus on his quest for the presidency in 2012.
“I felt it was better that I concentrate on one election,” Paul said. “It’s about that time when I should change tactics.”
Yep. He's all in. It's either the presidency or retirement. Hope he enjoys retirement.
Note, too, as in real life, his opponent holds all the aces!

Ron Paul is the energy behind Audit the Fed and a strong monetary policy. Ron Paul is the only man who repeatedly stands firm on the US getting out of foreign entanglements. BTW that was one of our founding father's platform planks. Ron Paul is up against high odds, but he is the only candidate who is willing to run the US by our Constitution. BTW that's the document that people swear to defend but turn right around and trash it.

Dave: I just hope you will use your enthusiasm to help get your second favorite man (or woman) nominated. RP is a lost cause.

Yes. We are quite aware of Paul's neo-isolationism. Those who would compare Ron Paul to Thomas Jefferson should remember who it was that sent the Marines to the shores of Tripoli...
