The strangest thing just happened. I was just looking up…I don’t know what I was looking up, but I came across the “Americans for Ron Paul Blog” website. It seems as though people are really passionate about this guy. I do like him, so I have nothing bad to say. He is one of the two politicians I know who seem to tell the truth (Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich).
Anyway, after I looked through that website, which seems to be run by decent folk, I hopped over to Digg to see today’s news. Well, wouldn’t you know it, the first article was, “Ron Paul To Break One-Day Internet Fundraising Record.” Now, that is pretty neat. I guess the whole correlation between politics and money doesn’t hold water? As far as I know, Ron Paul is at the bottom of every national poll, among Republicans. Why the heck isn’t this guy climbing?
As far as Dennis Kucinich is concerned, even though I love the guy, I know why he is at the bottom as well. I guess the people of this country have really gotten used to the same old politics. It also seems like good ‘ol Dennis is only using the campaign to talk about his issues, which is fine with me. Al Sharpton has been doing that for years.
Opinions?

Ron Paul: REAL ID won’t stop terrorism, will violate your rights
Terrorism is the excuse given for virtually every new power grab by the federal government, and the national ID is no exception. But federal agencies have tried to create a national ID for years, long before the 9-11 attacks. In fact, a 1996 bill sought to do exactly what the REAL ID Act does: transform state drivers’ licenses into de facto…
