re: #409 Charles

For one, I don’t know if Ron Paul is a member, but he gave the keynote speech at the John Birch Society’s 50th anniversary meeting. And Ron Paul’s son just got Sarah Palin’s endorsement for the Senate.

Also, he’s not a politician, but he has a huge influence on the right wing — Glenn Beck promotes Bircher ideology regularly on his show.

I’ve been posting articles for months showing the resurgence of the John Birch Society.

I know you have, I simply wanted to know if anyone knows of any major GOP politicians that are actual members. I was trying to find some and I couldn’t.

For me, the jury is still out on how much influence the JBS society is going to have in the next two election cycles.
