June 4, 2007

The much awaited appearance on the Daily Show went well. Jon Stewart was very supportive of Dr. Paul's ideas, and they discussed a variety of issues that most media shows tend to ignore.

They started the interview with the following discussion about Dr. Paul's positions and candidacy:

Stewart: You have accomplished no small feat. You're running for president, very much as an underdog, yet you've created a nice little buzz now about the Ron Paul candidacy. What do you attribute that to?

Paul: A good message, the philosophy of liberty, and people are still interested in being free people; living in a free country.

Stewart: Buy you're talking about America not spreading that liberty to other areas such as Canada.

Paul: Not by use of force. And I don't believe in trying to spread it. I think its a good message but I don't believe in spreading it with guns. We should spread it by setting a good example and getting others to emulate us, but not to try to force it on other people.
