Ron Paul 2008 - ProfilesArchive

About Me

I am proud to say that I am the leading advocate for freedom in our nation's capital. As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, I work tirelessly for limited constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, and a return to sound monetary policies. I am also known among my congressional colleagues and constituents for my consistent voting record. I have never voted for legislation unless the proposed measure is expressly authorized by the Constitution. In the words of former Treasury Secretary William Simon, I am the "one exception to the Gang of 535" on Capitol Hill.

My Interests

..
I really enjoy bicycling, as I try to ride as many as 10-15 miles a day when time permits. I love to ride my bike in the mountains of Colorado. I also enjoy gardening, and I tend to my tomatoes and roses when I am at home in Texas. I love the water and boating, and the Texas Gulf Coast provides a wonderful opportunity for me to go boating with friends and family. I really enjoy spending time with my family. I have a large family and we often get together at our home to visit with one another. It is a very welcomed break from Washington, D.C. at times.

I'd like to meet:

Precinct Leaders and Door to Door Campaigners Needed.
Please go to: voters.ronpaul2008.com

Music:

I really love to listen to folk music. One of my favorite songs is Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant."

Movies:

Television:

I watch all the news stations and C-SPAN.

Hayek, and Human Action: A Treatise on Economics by Ludwig von Mises are just a few of the many books that I enjoy.
