Politics of Freedom Update - June 29th thru July 5th




Ron Paul 2012 Podcast show

Summary: How I miss the days of the Presidential campaign; the interviews were aplenty, hopes rode high and media coverage was abundant!  The campaign lasted many months- but it all went very quickly in hindsight. The podcast continues to evolve over the months, as I try to balance the coverage of politics with news developments and other activism. Ron Paul announced the rollout of his very own internet television channel at ronpaulchannel.com! Hopefully, it will provide additional content for your listening pleasure here at the podcast. The question is: is Dr. Paul himself trying to take over the market for all things Ron Paul?
