Academics Join to Endorse Congressman Ron Paul for President
December 10, 2007
(Long Island, N.Y.) A group of professors from a wide range of academic disciplines have formed an “Academics for Ron Paul” group to declare their support for presidential candidate Ron Paul. The academics hold positions at national institutions including Northwestern University, University of Alabama, American University, The Citadel, Brigham Young University, Hillsdale College, Indiana University, Ohio University and The Hoover Institution.
In their announcement they wrote:
“Americans have lost faith in politicians, and for good reasons. Taxes, spending, and the national debt continue to rise, special interest bribes riddle the Congress, courts, and executive branch, and our schools are in shambles. Yet our government continues to wage a ceaseless assault on the American people’s rights to make their own choices. It has done so through the USA Patriot Act, the REAL ID Act, the War on Drugs, McCain-Feingold, and countless other initiatives. The endless and inept foreign policy of interventionism of the establishment politicians has put our country in grave danger not only of a destructive war with Iran but a new financial crisis.
“The 2008 election thus comes at a critical time in the history of the United States and the world.
“We endorse Ron Paul for president because we believe he is the candidate best able to solve these profound problems. We come from a broad and diverse range of academic fields and specialties. We unite under the banner of liberty and are proud to announce our support for Ron Paul.” The full endorsement can be found here: www.academicsforpaul.com

Got something to say?
If Ron Paul were AlGore he would now proclaim that the debate is over and a consensus has been reached!
Momentum is building and I think the tide is turning. The call for freedom is contagious. People all have the right to their own opinion, I just want more mainstream media coverage of Ron Paul so they have the oppurtunity to make a well informed decision.

Have’nt read that much about Paul. However, I do realize that we must vote out the incompetents now in the Congress. This country must get back on a level playing field before it is absolutely too late. Lets pray that it not beyond the point of no return! Too bad we can’t come up with another Ronald Reagan; or can we?

Ronald Reagan Loved and respected Ron Paul ,and he wasn’t shy about letting it be known! The good Dr. is the closest thing to the GREAT Ronald Reagan that we are likely to see again in our lifetimes.
