RP sponsors Sheldon which means he's anti-gay. PERIOD!
Dear Ron,
I cannot find where Ron Paul says he is "an ally" of the Traditional
Values Coalition. I see that statement in the Chronicle article, but
that is it. But, who knows, wonders never cease.
BTW, I agree with you that conventions determine path. Are you all
going to the LPCA convention? We are allowed 11 delegates. Easier
than starting a new political party!!!
