LRC readers may enjoy my article "The Ron Paul Evolution" in the April 21 issue of The American Conservative, in bookstores now. It includes some of my own reminiscences about the campaign, but more importantly, it also looks at some of the promising developments that are arising from the revolution -- not only a cadre of principled Ron Paul Republicans running for Congress (and the Senate, in Murray Sabrin's case) but also a new nationwide youth movement and other institutions that will keep the revolution going longer after the November elections. As Ron Paul's 16 percent showing in the Pennsylvania primary and the incredible demand for his new book demonstrate, this movement for peace and liberty isn't going away -- it's just getting started.
Paul revolutionaries should also check out Bill Kauffman's new book, Ain't My America: The Long, Noble History of Anti-War Conservatism and Middle-American Anti-Imperialism. Dr. Paul himself blurbs the book thus: "For those who have been neoconned into believing that conservatism means unquestioned support for the warfare state, Ain't My America is the perfect way to show that real conservatives defend peace and liberty."
