By necessity not choice .By choice he is the "Libertarian standard bearer" In the 1988 presidential election, Paul defeated Native American activist Russell Means to win the Libertarian Party nomination for president. Paul criticized Ronald Reagan as a failure and cited large deficits as exhibit A. As the "Libertarian standard bearer",Paul gained endorsers who agreed with his positions on gun rights, fiscal conservatism, homeschooling, and abortion, and won approval from many who thought the federal government was misdirected. This nationwide base encouraged and donated to his later campaigns.Kent Snyder, Paul's 2008 campaign chair, first worked for Paul on the 1988 campaign. According to Paul, his presidential campaign was about more than obtaining office; he sought to promote his libertarian ideas

Sounds good to me. What do we need allies for anyway? Is there some enemy we need allies to defeat? Do we need allies to try to dominate the world? Having allies implies that you're allied against something, that you have enemies. Lets be friends and freely trade with every nation, and be allies or enemies with none of them, and if other countries decide to start a war somewhere, let's stay out of it.
Possibly, BUT that in no way shape form or fashion changes the FACT that Paul is a Republican. You know, that party you're always poo pooing on.
Range Rover is convinced that it is actually the liberals who want to elect Ron Paul, not primariliy the conservatives. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=226306
