This smacks of incompetence at least. I guarantee if anyone asked to publish something under my name purporting to come from me, I would definitely read it before it went out. I find it very hard to believe that this newsletter was published under his name without him knowing what was in it. At any rate, he should have known what was being said in these newsletters being distributed for a period of several years. I could see if it was a one-off occurrence where an editor left a racist comment in one issue by mistake, but this was deliberately going on for years. If Ron Paul wins the presidency, is he going to have a press secretary sending out statements and press releases without personally directing him to or even checking them first?
Still its 20 year old newsletter. Fucking Perry used to be a democrat you don't see them bitching about that. And Romney did "socialized" healthcare and they still don't care. So give me a break.
You are grasping here.... Ok he was incompetent 20 years ago.. sorry he didn't have better control on a newsletter with his name on it. Again actions speak louder then words. No one is 100% perfect in life, but this is such a small issue, and it seems like the only one people can keep bringing up, so IMO thats pretty good if this is the only kinda dirt they can dig up on him.
Still remember to compare all this to our current leaders. I will shut down Guantanamo. (Still going) I will stop the wars. (He started more wars).
