Alex Jones has an agenda, and it isn't the truth. Do you think Nelson Linder knows about this? Do you think he'd approve of Ron Paul and the Conservative Caucus working with the KKK to deny women's rights? Alex Jones often talks about the "shadow government." Do you think he knows that Ron Paul was a part of it?

You let me know where you find a "shadow cabinet" in the constitution, ok? The US is not a parliamentary system, and even in parliamentary systems, those people are ELECTED officials...not self-appointed.

GOP Establishment? Like people who are involved with Bush? You'd better look up Lewis Lehrman, the co-author of Ron Paul's book A Case for Gold. He was an investor in Arbusto Oil, owned by George W. Bush.

In fact, Ron Paul had him before his committee this year.
