...advocate voting for Ron Paul,
or even anyone who claims to "like" him.

There are a couple of other issues where he takes the right position,
and I would LOVE to see the Democratic Party incorporate them, or explain why not:

*Slashing Military Spending

*Dismantling Homeland Security

*Restoring Civil Liberties and Constitutional Restrictions on Executive Power

NOBODY should vote for Ron Paul.
THAT would be a disaster.
EVERY Liberal democrat should petition the Democratic Party leadership to co-opt Ron Paul's position on these important issues.
