And, more importantly, are they even aware of it?
Sometimes I mull that very question. A good friend of mine is a pre-med student at Dartmouth who recently drank the Ron Paul kool-aid. He's normally an intelligent, rational human being who avoid buying into the hype about candidates. Somehow, Paul's mix of isolationism and limited government has transformed him from politically ambivalent to a rabid Paul supporter.
Does Rep. Paul have the magnetism of a cult leader? He inspires cultish adoration from his followers. How can a diminutive man from Texas who's asserted that most young blacks are born criminals and the only way to fix the dollar is to dump the Federal Reserve elicit support from such as wide swath of people?
