it was fun... especially when you have the other crazies counter demonstrating them (John Birchers)... but both had gold standard crap, just different take on it, on their tables.

I listened to far more CTs in one afternoon than I have heard in years.

It was fun though. You hardly get to mix with that many crazy uncles in an afternoon. (And I mean in the 20K estimated figure)

Oh and this needs noting. Ron Paul is an extremely charismatic speaker... as in very. If his son is even half as charismatic as dad, could be a problem. And this is to the photography crowd, he also photographs well.
