Whatever you call it, this is a problem when the country is being attacked by foreign terrorists. There's a difference between "avoiding foreign entanglements" and protecting yourself.Ron will never get the nomination. He is too much against the status quo. Keep in mind that he is opposed to the military industrial complex, the "war" on drugs and the existing corporate power structure which has contaminated government on all levels. I would dare say that he is the most libertarian of all candidates including Obama.
This is why the elite will never let him get the nomination. I would guarantee that once he pulls ahead the corporate media will do their best to destroy him the way they did with Howard Dean.
I would like to get back to the second part of my question, which is to say what candidate would best support academic freedom. In this respect I would say that Ron Paul seems to be the most opposed to the concept of uber government.
