The man whose ideas and message and now his delegates are unequal footing to combat the establishment of the Republican Party. Here now Texas Republican Congressman Ron Paul. Congressman Paul, it's a pleasure. Congratulations on the numbers you achieved last night in Iowa. Thank you, Judge. Good to be with you. What is your road to the Republican nomination as you see it? I think you've hinted at us to what it is. I mean, it's getting the delegates and you have to win the primaries or win these caucuses. But there are some that are going to be more difficult than others. Some states are very, very big and then you're talking about hundreds of millions of dollars which we won't have although we have a very strong donor base but they are small donors. So we have to depend on that. So it is going to the smaller states and looking at the caucus state and then do our very best in all the states possible. But I think we got the boost that we needed and we're feeling good about where we're going from there. What can you do to remind Republican voters that you are the only game changer that all the other Republican candidates agree on in one form or another basically on the status quo as it is or as it was when George W. Bush was president. But you know what would be encouraging if you know our large rallies we had large rallies out in Iowa sometimes over a thousand sometimes 13 1400 people. In response is a lot of responses came on the foreign policy bringing our troops home the civil liberties at the Patriot Act they in Evolving it whether I was in a Republican group or independence or what they they know about the Patriot Act and they also know about this National Defense Authorization Act which really impressed me because so many would even bring it up and ask questions about it and the responses are fantastic but you don't hear that on the news you know they don't report that and if they would know that they would see that there's a bit of a difference because the rest are supportive of the status quo they're not talking about civil liberties they're talking about you know an aggressive foreign policy of moving troops around the war and occupation and changing the internal governments of other nations and you know even when they talk about fiscal conservatism they're not really talking about it they're talking about tinkering on the edges and cutting a little bit of the increases of course you know I have a proposal to really cut the budget. Your your your first is the only proposal that will cut the budget in fact you want to cut a trillion dollars in the first year if we cut the trillion dollars in the first year of your presidency you could probably run the federal government without having to borrow any more money if that were so what would that mean for the economy? Well I think you know there's a lot of psychology and economics and you know you need to restore confidence you have to get better policy that you restore you know the psychology and the confidence that would help. I think just changing foreign policy it would change the psychology if you all of a sudden they started seeing our troops here at home rather than going into Australia and these different ways and other adding countries into all over Africa and looking at Syria and Iran you know if that psychology would be changed and that we'd be spending either that money at home or letting the people spend that money I think I would give a real boost but we need to get the people spend the money we need to quit monetizing debt we need to market operate we need contracts back again right we need you know market interest rates all the things that we used to have but we gave up on about a hundred years ago. Last week I was off in almost every place I went out in northwest New Jersey a very conservative Republican area where I live people came up to me and said I like Ron Paul I like Ron Paul but I'm worried about his foreign policy if you had been standing next to me when those folks said that to me what would you have said back to them. Well I might have I might have started with a question and asking what are you worried about and what they usually talk about is they're afraid I'm not strong on national offense and I tell them that just spending money overseas is military spending it may may well distract from national defense and I would use Republicans like like Eisenhower warning about the military industrial complex and Robert Taft how he warned about getting into NATO and that we should be spending this money at home but the one the one thing that to pay more attention to is they think that if you don't vote for the money and for the war is everything you're against the troops but when you're given the statistic that I get twice as much money as the other candidates from active military duties I said why does that count for something and they pay a lot of attention to that. Congressman Paul congratulations on the victory last night we'll see you in the hamster thanks for joining us thank you that's for the other candidate
