Did Ron Paul’s Team Sell Out?
I honestly don’t know what Benton’s end game ever was. From what I understand, he’s just Paul’s son-in-law. He ran Rand’s Senate campaign, but I get the feeling this is just a job for him. And for all his strengths, Ron has a real problem with trusting wrong people with positions in his circle of influence.
This guy never seemed to really be on board like “real” supporters were/are. I’m thinking of people like Adam Kokesh, Tom Woods, the DP guys…people Benton made sure were not included in the campaign in any way. (Tom hinted at this in the quotes and link mentioned here).
And if you follow closely, you’ll see hardcore Paul supporters were never really crazy about Benton either. And the recent statements he’s made are only a small sample of the countless examples of why.
I honestly want to know what’s in that guy’s head. I wonder how much he really favors Paul and how much he’s a typical neocon, afraid of Paul policies.
