The New York Times reports during his “20 years in Congress,” Rep. Ron Paul has staked out the lonely end of 434-to-1 votes against legislation that he considers unconstitutional, even on issues as ceremonial as granting Mother Teresa a Congressional Gold Medal.” Now “it appears others are beginning to credit him with some wisdom — or at least acknowledging his passionate following. After years of blocking him from a leadership position, Mr. Paul's fellow Republicans have named him chairman of the House subcommittee on domestic monetary policy, which oversees the Federal Reserve as well as the currency and the valuation of the dollar.” http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/13/us/politics/13paul.html?_r=1&ref=us added by: Radical_Centrist
