John McCain is the only current GOP leader I’ve heard praise TR.

Ron Paul wants to dismantle the FDA in the name of “consumer freedom.” The rest of them are worthless and fall somewhere between.

There’s a good reason for that (and one I never tire of posting):

The man of great wealth owes a peculiar obligation to the State, because he derives special advantages from the mere existence of government. Not only should he recognize this obligation in the way he leads his daily life and in the way he earns and spends his money, but it should also be recognized by the way in which he pays for the protection the State gives him.
