Like Jefferson Smith, James Stewart's character in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, so now goes forth Congressman Dr. Ron Paul, who has been referred to as "the one exception to the gang of 535". As he aims the spear of the living Constitution into the very heart of the American psyche, Congressman Paul is the leading advocate of the Constitution, in particular the Bill of Rights. Congressman Paul now takes his struggle before the quagmire of the GOP presidential elections; making his run on traditional conservative values, small government, and personal freedom of the American people.

- we must secure our borders and coastlines before any talks of immigration reform
- we must enforce existing visa rules
- we must ensure any immigrant who overstays their visa or commits a crime will be punished by instant
deportation
- we must have absolutely no amnesty
