Interviewer, Erik Forman -- Congressman Paul, thank you for providing time for this interview. With your permission I would like to skip the formalities, as my readers are fully aware of your Libertarian ideology and your platform. I would specifically like to talk about certain powers in our government that, to the thinking of a growing band of Constitutionalists, seem to have taken control of the political system itself. First question: do you believe there are secret forces at work that are attempting to dismantle the Constitution and the Bill of Rights?
Congressman Ron Paul -- I don't know what the best word is, but secret is pretty good. They're certainly not known to a lot of people; it's actually what they're doing. But then again, it's not absolute secrecy. If you look around you can usually get the information. There was a time when nobody even knew who was a member of the CFR or the Trilateral Commission. I think it's a bad sign that they're not as secret as they used to be. They're bolder now. They get on television and they give interviews. But there is an agenda. They're behind the scenes in many way -- very secretive. And, that was certainly the case on those individuals who planned and pushed us into the Iraqi War. Full Article

IMHO the Libertarian party is a dead horse. Libertarian party members should drop out of the LP and join one of the 2 major parties for the purpose of getting candidates with a libertarian philosophy into office. Ron Paul is no less a libertarian by running as republican, but he can elected as a republican whereas he would have no hope of getting elected as a Libertarian.
