« Patenting yoga | Main | David Weinberger: Everything is Miscellaneous » Ron Paul's grassfireFed up with the pervasive, remarkably obvious corruption of the Bush regime and the promise of more politics-as-usual from the slate of presidential candidates offered so far by major parties, netizens are flocking to former Libertarian (and current Republican), Texas' Ron Paul. His stock rose after his recent performance in the Republican debate, where he argued that terrorism is a response to intrusive U.S. foreign policy. (A quote from the debate: "We overthrew the Iranian government in 1953 and their taking the hostages was the reaction. This dynamic persists and we ignore it at our risk. They’re not attacking us because we’re rich and free, they’re attacking us because we’re over there.") [Link] [Link to Ron Paul's Wikipedia entry] [Link to Salon article]
