Another anti-Paul smear-hoax is now on its last leg --- if it wasn't already.by Dan Alba
(Libertarian)
The latest testimonial on Ron Paul's true social and political sensibilities is perhaps the most authoritative one, and is based on irrefutable empirical evidence.
I reproduce below, in its entirety, the story as published by the original source.

Austin NAACP President Nelson Linder, who has known Ron Paul for 20 years, unequivocally dismissed charges that the Congressman was a racist in light of recent smear attempts, and said the reason for him being attacked was that he was a threat to the establishment.
Linder joined Alex Jones for two segments on his KLBJ Sunday show this evening, during which he commented on the controversy created by media hit pieces that attempted to tarnish Paul as a racist by making him culpable for decades old newsletter articles written by other people.
"Knowing Ron Paul's intent, I think he is trying to improve this country but I think also, when you talk about the Constitution and you constantly criticize the federal government versus state I think a lot of folks are going to misconstrue that....so I think it's very easy for folks who want to to take his position out of context and that's what I'm hearing," said Linder.
"Knowing Ron Paul and having talked to him, I think he's a very fair guy I just think that a lot of folks do not understand the Libertarian platform," he added.
Asked directly if Ron Paul was a racist, Linder responded "No I don't," adding that he had heard Ron Paul speak out about police repression of black communities and mandatory minimum sentences on many occasions.
Dr. Paul has also publicly praised Martin Luther King as his hero on many occasions spanning back 20 years.
"I've read Ron Paul's whole philosophy, I also understand what he's saying from a political standpoint and why people are attacking him," said Linder.
"If you scare the folks that have the money, they're going to attack you and they're going to take it out of context," he added.
"What he's saying is really really threatening the powers that be and that's what they fear," concluded the NAACP President.
CHICAGO (Reuters) - A therapy using embryonic stem cells helped restore muscle function in mice with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, the most common form of muscular dystrophy in children, U.S. researchers said on Sunday.
They said the study is the first to show that transplanted embryonic stem cells can restore muscle in genetically engineered mice with the disease.
Stem cells are the body's master cells, acting as a source for the various cells and tissues in the body. Those taken from days-old embryos, called embryonic stem cells, can produce all of the body's cell types.
check out the jesus camp post and you will learn how mike huckabee and his supporters think. they have no respect for the rights of people that do not think like them.
A fellow member of www.hucksarmy.com was interviewed by her local media after she called them to report an "Unethical Campaign Tatic by Romney" After it was broadcast; someone placed it on youtube. It is a short video.
OldSchool, you might like the fact Susan pointed out Romney also left out your guy.
Huckabee by far dominated the GOP debate with the few times he was "allowed" to speak, same with ron paul. I love how Ron Paul pulled an Edwards and commented on the BS with McCain\Romney arguing semantics on who did what when its the issues that should be discussed
Huckabee has the qualities but its most likely going to be McCain who gets the nod. He has the votes and is prob the only legit threat to obama\clinton
