Farewell to Ron Paul

[arora]

I'm surprised no one has brought this up, or maybe I just can't find it. Either way here is a transcript and vid of his last speech.

I have of course all sorts of opinions and such but I'll bite my lip and simply post a small quote.

Our Constitution, which was intended to limit government power and abuse, has failed. The Founders warned that a free society depends on a virtuous and moral people. The current crisis reflects that their concerns were justified...

...If the people are unhappy with the government performance it must be recognized that government is merely a reflection of an immoral society that rejected a moral government of constitutional limitations of power and love of freedom.

A great man who I will miss.

Listened to it.... not really possible to argue with anything he said at all. Congress, the US, is in desperate need of people who understand what is going on the way he does.

Well I know from past convos that you had reservations with him in regards to the POTUS election, I didn't want to simply build a moat either lol but I have to ask(setting perhaps unrealistic foreign policy aside), who did you vote for?

I'll show my cards and I don't actually expect you to share if you haven't or don't care to. I went with my hometown man Johnson, even while keeping in mind my strong belief in national defense and securing interests.

Yea, I didn't like Ron Paul for president, but he was the best candidate the republicans even remotely considered. If they had put him up I'd have had a really hard time not voting for him.

I voted for Johnson as well.
