Ron Paul has pledged that as president he would like to abolish the Federal Department of Education, the IRS, and the Federal Reserve; in the end analysis, he's even more quixotic than Kucinich. On the less unrealistic but still highly controversial side, he'd like to see Roe v. Wade overturned and let the states decide about the abortion issue.

Thank you. People like to slurp him just because he is against the insane war we are in, which honestly, doesn't exactly make someone a genius.
