Greenwald links to pieces arguing the validity of citing Ron Paul's views, and more

[Uncle Joe]

57. I said some of his views, not all of them, ie; the corruptive, counterproductive, racist

dysfunctional, disenfranchising, draconian, unjust and Bill of Rights raping "War on Drugs" policies, turning what should be educational, medical, personal privacy issues in to criminal ones.

As I've posted before there is a huge tragic irony, when Paul; in spite of his racism is the only major candidate to come out strongly against a Drug Policy that is most definitely racist to its' core.

The problem with not addressing Paul's points when they're valid is that it more likely empowers him or someone of his ilk in the future to eventually make use of the twisted views that you speak of.

The lines become blurred to the American People between racists advocating an end to Big Brother, authoritarian racist policies and so called "centrists" firmly in the right leaning, authoritarian quadrant promoting or supporting a disastorous and unjust status quo.
