i used to vote ron paul, until i heard him suggest selling the fort knox gold supply. then i realized hes the illuminati alternative.
my fix for congress: public financing for elected officials, and term limits

Aj, glad Im not the only one that caught that about selling the gold (assuming there is gold in there!)
If the gold were sold you know who would buy it, the elite. And then the american public would be stuck with nothing but TP.
He who has the gold has the power.

You guys realize that politicos sometimes make rediculous statements to highlight the rediculousness of the situtation, don't you? He made this comment within the context that there are still people that believe that there is gold in Fort Knox, and that it underpins the value of the US FRN. If that were so, then attempting to sell the gold would naturally require an audit of the reserves. He knew that the powers-that-be would refuse any such thing, but Ron Paul also knew that some of their own supporters would then think "hell, why not?" and a very small percentage of them will be started down a path to revelation.
