Is Ron Paul's foreign policy really THAT crazy?

Another original video from the boys at Politikal Pressure Media...
(The good stuff begins at 3:45)

Ron Paul rakes in $4 million in a single day

ThisNovember5th.com proved itself as more than a quasi-anarchist's pipe dream, but rather a major political feat.

The Ron Paul "money bomb" generated $4 million of contributions to Paul's campaign in a single day –– the symbolically rich November 5th. This successful fund raiser boosted Paul's overall haul for the 4th quarter to $7.1 million.

While the goal was an ambitious $10 million, the $4 million raised is a powerful testament to the growing strength of Paul's campaign.

Back in January, Romney successfully raised $3.1 million in a single day.

It will be interesting to see how many media outlets pick up this story.
