More of the Same in 2007
Leave a responseby Ron Paul Today we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace. In Iraq, however, war rages on with no end in sight. The midterm congressional elections are over, and the Iraq Study Group report is complete. Many Americans are unhappy about the war and want a change in policy. But what [...]
The Original Foreign Policy
Leave a responseby Ron Paul It is our true policy to steer clear of entangling alliances with any portion of the foreign world.

Who Makes Foreign Policy?
Leave a responseby Ron Paul The Iraq Study Group released its report last week, giving the president several recommendations to consider in prosecuting the war. Similarly, the incoming Democratic leaders in Congress promise to urge the President to take a new course in Iraq.

Gun Control on the Back Burner
Leave a responseby Ron Paul For most Americans, guns are not a political issue. People buy and own guns to protect their families, not to commit crimes. The truth is that even millions of Americans who support and vote for gun control own guns themselves, because deep down they share the basic human need to feel secure [...]
The NAFTA Superhighway
Leave a responseby Ron Paul By now many Texans have heard about the proposed “NAFTA Superhighway,” which is also referred to as the trans-Texas corridor. What you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are moving forward without congressional oversight or media attention. This superhighway would connect Mexico, the United States, [...]
