Next Wednesday, former Texas US Rep. Ron Paul will formally announce the creation of a new foreign policy think tank. It will be called the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. According to the former congressman’s office: “The neo-conservative era is dead. The ill-advised policies pushed by the neo-cons have everywhere led to chaos and destruction, and to a hatred of the United States and its people. Multi-trillion dollar wars have not made the world a safer place; they have only bankrupted our economic future. The Ron Paul Institute will provide the tools and the education to chart a new course with the understanding that only through a peaceful foreign policy can we hope for a prosperous tomorrow.” Paul will be the CEO. Daniel McAdams, who served as a foreign policy adviser to Rep. Paul for several years, will be the executive director. Serving on the board will be Fox News judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano and Faith Whittlsey, the former ambassador to Switzerland under President Ronald Reagan. Also on the board are US Reps. Walter Jones of North Carolina and Jimmy Duncan of Tennessee as well as former Paul staffer Lew Rockwell. Another adviser on the board is former Ohio US Rep. Dennis Kucinich. Although a Democrat, Kucinich frequently worked with the Republican Paul on numerous common causes including the defense of civil liberties, restraining presidential war powers, opposition to drones, and Federal Reserve transparency. [sic] Paul is expanding the reach of his philosophical worldview through other educational endeavors. In addition to the announcement of the foreign policy institute, earlier this month the former congressman unveiled a libertarian-themed home school curriculum that will eventually include K-12. Paul will reveal more details of the foreign policy institute at a press conference on Wednesday, April 17 from the Capitol Hill Club in Washington DC. Poster Comment: Another outreach project that was started in February: RON PAUL'S PODCAST NATION “It will fill the growing demand for information on foreign affairs from a non-interventionist perspective through a lively and diverse website, and will provide unique educational opportunities to university students and others. . . .
The two-time presidential candidate shares his thoughts and opinions on the issues of the day in minute-long commentaries twice every weekday, and in his weekly 10-minute podcast exclusively available on Podcast One.

I was a Ron Paul supporter for twenty-five years and have little doubt that his first presidential run kept me from becoming an out-and-out anarchist. But after three, pretty much inconsequential, presidential runs I've written Dr. Paul off. In 2012, he was given the opportunity to expose the massive vote fraud and theft of elections going on in this country every election cycle and what did Dr. Paul do with this opportunity, not a damn thing. I wish him well in this latest endeavor but should he, or his wishy-washy son, Rand, send me an email asking for a donation, they can go pound sand.
well said. and in case you missed this: Ron Paul officially promotes his Israeli-smitten son Randy for President 2016

He isn't perfect and I don't agree with him on everything but he's made great strides for America just since February -- by magnitudes in comparison to others less concerned with our best interests. He's already established a Communications format, an alternative school system for us with an Education in America's foundational principles and sound Economics too, as well as a Foreign Policy Institute for Peace and Prosperity to repair our Constitutional Republic. In my view, he's still a champion track star and triumphant home-run achiever.
