I written a number of posts concerning Ron Paul’s newsletter problem over at OTB over the last couple of week. My basic conclusion in regards to Paul (whom I flirted with considering voting for in the primary) is as follows: the bottom line is this: absent an especially comprehensive and satisfactory explanation, the newsletters utterly disqualify Paul from the nomination, let alone the White House. Having spent a substantial amount of time researching, reading, writing, and arguing concerning this matter, I can reach no other conclusion.
All of my posts on this subject, for those who are interested in my reasoning and/or wish to examine the evidence for themselves are as follows (in chronological order):
