The end of the week is a happy time for most, and I felt like we at NSP could share some of the things we’ve enjoyed this week with our readers. Those of you who read Ryan’s objectivist content tag will notice that he’s a big fan of Republican presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul. While Paul may make sense to the more economically inclined and intelligent parts of the electorate, he largely what amounts to gibberish to the average voter. His economic policies and opposition to governmental growth are often ridiculed by fellow presidential candidates, both in the debates and out on the campaign trail. College Humor has captured the essence of America’s understanding of Ron Paul by utilizing the music of Sean Paul. It’s a video well worth watching after the jump, along with more humor from the Onion.
The Onion also published a hysterical piece this week on the state of the current presidential race, with the satirical guise of a Jimmy Carter presidential run. It’s laden with curse words and not suitable for those not comfortable with vivid imagery, but it’s a funny read nonetheless.Thanks for reading, and we hope you’ll come back throughout the rest of this month as we continue to write about the current presidential race and other issues of domestic and international importance.

New School Politics » The Economic Candidate(s) | 12 01 2008[...] Zach may be right that Ron Paul sounds about as confusing to the average voter as Sean Paul sounds to–well–me, but at least he speaks in a more rational and candid manner–something which I would rarely accuse the other candidates of doing.
