56. Yes, I greatly admire Ron Paul!
Doesn't mean I would vote for him, send him money or support his candidacy; however, I respect his right to have a different position than me and admire the fact that he actually has consistent principled positions.

You can disagree with his positions, but he is one of the few principled politicans in DC and it is refreshing to see, no matter what side of the aisle you are on.

If there were more people like Ron Paul in govenrment, we could actually have REAL debates about REAL issues, instead of everyone trying to find nuanced positions that seeks poll approval.
