MOREThomas DiLorenzo: The American Tradition Of Secession
"This country was born through secession." Leftists and neocons in the media who tend to agree on the propriety and desirability of an ever-growing welfare/warfare/police state were predictably apoplectic when Ron Paul recently stated on his House Web site that secession is "a deeply American principle." Congressman Paul ... MOREJohn Stossel: About That Fiscal Cliff
It's less frightening than the bankruptcy cliff. Yikes, we're headed toward a fiscal cliff! It will crush the
economy! Or so the media and politicians tell us. The "cliff" is a series of tax increases and budget cuts that automatically go into effect Jan. 1 unless Congress acts. Will Congress act? It will! I see the future: The politicians will meet ... MOREGary North: An Anomaly In American History

by Charles Mahtesian. There hasn’t been a single poll out of Colorado this year that’s shown Mitt Romney ahead of Barack Obama. Tuesday’s Public Policy Polling poll is no exception: Obama leads Romney in a head-to-head matchup by 49 percent to 42 percent. But add libertarian Gary Johnson to the mix and the numbers are slightly different: Obama leads ... MORE

MORERon Paul's Delegates May Have Loud Voice At Convention

MOREKatrina Trinko: Paul's Delegate Scramble
Why Ron Paul's delegate count remains relevant. Mitt Romney was declared the initial winner of the Iowa caucuses. Then, after a recount, Rick Santorum was announced as the actual victor.

Chris Moody: The Libertarians' New Choice For President
Gary Johnson is back. You might remember him best as the scrappy long-shot Republican presidential candidate who made a "dog poop" joke from the far end of the debate stage in Florida last year.
