Latest communication, received November 27, 2007:
"Hello,
We would like to participate. I sent you Congressman Paul's statement of faith
and statement on life and liberty.
In response, I believe you sent us a questionnaire as the statements, I believe
you said, did not fit your format.
Please resend the questionnaire and I will forward it to the Congressman for
completion and get it back to you on time.
Thank you."

Ron Paul 2008
(Since the above email, we issued our statement about Mitt Romney's
Mormonism. Since then, we have yet to hear back from Congressman
Ron Paul campaign
even though the questionnaire was resent the next day and had been online since
November 3, 2007.)
Ron Paul is an
obstetrician-gynecologist who has served in the Congress three times for a total
of
18 years since 1976. He also served in the US Air Force and Air National
Guard.
Raised as a Lutheran, Ron Paul raised his own family in his wife's
Episcopalian church before attending Baptist churches. His faith does not appear
to be tied to a particular church or denomination. Ron Paul is staunchly
pro-life, the
death penalty included.
We have two issues with Congressman Ron Paul's platform. He is soft on gay marriage
and his proposal to simply and immediately pull our troops out of
Iraq and
Afghanistan betrays his lack of foreign policy experience.
While awaiting his answers, our rating of the Ron Paul candidacy for President
is a
C.
