I like those ideals in libertarianism, but Ron Paul is a fraud and a hypocrite. He mouths libertarian slogans, but his true position on some issues, especially those having to do with personal liberties, are about as far from being libertarian as you can get. He's further to the right on social issues than Romney or Newt, and changes his position frequently to boost his political changes.
Absolutely no way I would ever consider voting for him. Still waiting for a real libertarian to run.
