On The Religious Left, Great Expectations
The first priorities for Barack Obama's administration will be the economy and a variety of foreign policy issues. But the burgeoning religious left, which worked so hard to get Obama elected, expects some movement on its issues, including a robust White House office of faith-based initiatives, pove

Thanks for a very good interview. Dr. Paul had very thoughtful answers.

Paul has a 20 year voting record as a U.S. Congressman that backs up what he is saying. As Cheif Executive he would be able to eliminate much of the unconstitutional federal bureaucracy, among other things.
