Ron Paul TV Ad: Immigration

Ron Paul has joined the anti-immigration movement. For all of the unique and quirky essence he brings to the Presidential race, he falls short on this issue. There is an old Chinese proverb that says, "A man who sits between two stools easily falls." Perhaps Ron should make up his mind where he stands, so that hopeful supporters can stop wasting their money and their energy on his campaign.

Justin Raimondo, editor of AntiWar.com, a blog Paul regularly contributes to, called the ad "disgraceful."

"Rarely has a more ignorant proposal been advanced," he said. "And it is made even worse by the fact that this is Ron Paul we're talking about."

He and other angry fans accused Paul of pandering to the conservative base of the GOP, specifically border-security voters who backed presidential candidate Tom Tancredo before he recently dropped out of the race.
