    A superb article that gets to the REAL story about Paul

    What an amazing story. This is the story I've been wondering about for so long.

    You know, wondering things like: why hasn't the media truly picked up on the Ron Paul Revolution yet? Why are they still asking about Paul's Libertarian Party run in 88? Why are they constantly repeating the old "will you run as a third party candidate" line? Why is it that every single interview spends half of the alloted space talking about how he's "harnessed" the internet?

    I kept wondering when a hungry reporter was going to get out there and do some REAL journalistic reporting on the grass roots inferno that is the Ron Paul campaign. The story is in the boots on the ground, the multitude of supporters from Oregon to Ohio, the massive freedom movement that's spreading across this great country, not with the official Ron Paul campaign and the questions he's answered thousands of times before.

    Well, I have to wait no longer, because you Mr. Scherer have finally done the Paul campaign justice with this brilliant little piece. Kudos to you!
