Watched an interview last night with Ron Paul on CSPAN regarding Kucinich

[inthebrain]

He was fielding a question from a caller regarding them running together. The basic answer in regards to that was a clear "no".

I was interesting that he mentioned support for DK's domestic agenda only if the money dumped into ridiculous foreign policey pursuits was hemmed back. He basicly stated that was the only condition he would give approval for it. His preference was that people do not become "addicted" to social programs.

Generally, provided that cut backs were made in the proper areas Paul stated he would get on board with not for profit healthcare system and expanding welfare.

But right now it doesn't appear anything like the rumor they are going to run together. As a matter of fact, it looks like Paul is willing to cave to DK's agenda should he win the presidency.

2. Not for Profit Health Care

Did he actually use the phrase "not for profit health care"? If so, what exactly does he mean when he uses that phrase? We already have such organizations (some Blue Cross plans, for example) but they obviously haven't solved our health care problems.
