Ron Paul Salute to Veterans Rally

At the Rally for Veterans, hosted by Ron Paul on Wednesday evening in Des Moines, Iowa, the Ron Paul movement was on full display. Even the MSM reporters had bemused looks on their faces. What’s going on in America when a real discussion of principles and a vocal challenge to the status quo draws thousands to rallies across Iowa? Nary a soundbite to be heard.

I’m starting to wonder if it’s actually the Republican party that will make itself irrelevant if they continue to blot out Ron Paul–contrary to the media’s mantra that “Iowa will become irrelevant” if they hand Paul a victory on January third.

Those who agree with Paul love him fervently—one Iowa couple dressed their child up as a Ron Paul-themed super hero for a rally on Wednesday. The zealous Ronulans and Paulists, as they’re called, hail his consistency, candor and respect for the Constitution; even new-comers to his rallies say Paul’s respect for the holiest of American political documents is the most genuine in the field.
