Here’s some updates on Ron Paul, his philosophy, campaign and other newsworthy items: Jim Cramer gushes over Ron Paul on CNBC’s ‘Mad Money’ On his "Mad Money" program on CNBC yesterday Cramer spent seven minutes interviewing and praising Texas U.S. Rep. , a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, for seeking to make market manipulation by the Federal Reserve into a campaign issue. Paul commented that the Fed is "more secretive than the CIA," adding that no one really knows if the U.S. government still has its gold Ron Paul raises millions in today’s Boston Tea Party event On Nov. 5, supporters of Ron Paul raked in more than $4.2 million in donations in 24 hours, mostly of them collected over the Internet. Today, they’re at it again. Hoping to detonate what they call a "money bomb," the supporters started fundraising at midnight Saturday and have already raised $2 million as of about 10:30 a.m. today, more than at this point on Nov. 5, according to figures they posted online. They hope to collect a total of $10 million by midnight Sunday. Last time, they tied their fundraising to Guy Fawkes Day, which commemorates a British mercenary who tried unsuccessfully to kill King James I on Nov. 5, 1605. This time, they’re seizing on the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party and converging on this snowy city to rally. There are also plans to dump some tea (or at least some boxes labeled tea) into the Harbor, though the details were still sketchy as of this morning. So who is Ron Paul? America Wants to Know Ron Paul wants to bring U.S. troops home from Iraq because what we are doing in Iraq isn’t working, and it’s long past time to recognize that and start doing something else. Ron Paul wants to make Social Security and Medicare solvent by reducing what we spend on overseas military operations in more than a hundred countries around the globe and using that money to fund our own safety-net programs. Other politicians say our only options are tax increases and benefit cuts. Ron Paul has a different idea.Ron Paul wants to reduce the size of the federal government, not just to save money, but because the more power the federal government has over every little detail of life, the less freedom we all have. Ron Paul wants to enact fiscal and monetary policies to stop the creeping inflation that makes the cost of living go up faster than your salary does. Ron Paul wants to abolish the IRS. As you scrape together your year-end statements and receipts to bring to your tax preparer, ask yourself if you’d like to hear more about that. If you care about freedom and individual rights, you should vote for Ron Paul. Would Ron Paul Be Endorsed by the Founding Fathers? Lawyer Says Yes… LawyerUCLA.com makes a firm case for Ron Paul as president of the United States According to the statistics provided on their website, 61 percent of the mentions of the Constitution at the 2008 presidential debates were made by Ron Paul. Assuming 10 total candidates, 39 percent of the references to the Constitution would be divided among the nine other candidates. If the total number of references were to be split evenly across the rest of the candidates, each candidate would roughly only contribute to 4.3 percent of the Constitutional mentions. So this means that Ron Paul is 14 times more likely to utter the words of the Constitution than the average candidate The most highly publicized quote by Ron Paul occurred when Ron Paul challenged Mitt Romney’s statement regarding needing to consult lawyers. "This idea of going and talking to attorneys totally baffles me. Why don’t we just open up the Constitution and read it? You’re not allowed to go to war without a declaration of war," said Ron Paul in a debate October 9 in Michigan.
