Congressman Ron Paul at Loyola University of New Orleans

My other political hero, Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) was a guest in the Pelican State last evening at Loyola University of New Orleans.  Bayou Buzz reported Paul was greeted like a “rock star” and NOLA stated that the attendance was “nearly 1,000 students and community members on Loyola’s campus.”  NOLA reported the audience was excited and enthusiastic:

The Texas congressman, speaking in shirtsleeves and interrupted frequently by applause, said the country could cut down on spending by ending wars and downsizing government.

Those interested (and I recommend all my readers do so!) can go to the Daily Paul site and listen to the You Tube version.  It’s a great speech.

I promise more on Huey Long!  Stay tuned.
