Ron Paul's In-Our-Face Foreign Policy Ad

By Steve Clemons

Dec 22 2011, 9:59 AM ET Comment



Ron Paul's supporters* offer a stinging critique of US foreign policy in this provocative campaign ad that should win some sort of prize for making a serious policy point with more than a talking head.

For more interesting writing on Ron Paul, also check out my Atlantic colleague Conor Friedersdorf's deep dive into a "racist newsletter" controversy that deserves some discussion.

*  I originally noted that this was an ad produced by Ron Paul's team.  It was instead created by a group of grassroots individuals and then promoted by RevPac, a Ron Paul supporting SuperPac.
