Michael Alford builds a strong case that, in the 2012 Republican Presidential Primaries, Party authorities denied Dr. Ron Paul a fair chance to win the Party’s nomination. Mr. Alford goes from state to state to document how rules were changed, votes were either miscounted or questionably counted and Ron Paul supporters were subversively prevented from attending important meetings. All this and more was done by party hacks who apparently thought Dr. Paul would not be as strong a candidate as Mitt Romney.
Some people think that Ron Paul is against defense spending. Mr. Alford clarifies that with a good example. Dr. Paul is not opposed to appropriate military spending, but argues that, “Just because you spend a billion dollars on an embassy in Baghdad, bigger than the Vatican, you consider that defense spending. I consider that waste.” He is correct. Other than this example, Mr. Alford does not delve deeply into the positions taken by Representative Paul, and he does not offer a solution to the Republican Primary problem, but he does give a glimpse of how and why American voters seem to be deprived of good presidential candidates.
There were two other minor issues with this book:
1. If you want the photographic documentation of large crowds at Ron Paul rallies, get the book. My Kindle did not do these photos justice.
2. The author relied heavily on quotations from other sources that described with extensive details the abuses perpetrated on Ron Paul supporters. These quotations contained several grammatical errors which the author chose not to identify with “sic” references.
