Default Ron Paul - Somebody enlighten me

Ron Paul seems to be some kind of cult figure on the web and seems almost certain there is always at least 1 article on digg.com about him when I go there. The thing though is I don't get it. How exactly is this old geezer gonna get the Americans their country back to what it was?

To me he seems like an old outdated man who can't figure out if he is a democrat or a republican.

check his cnn profile http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008.../ron.paul.html

like if you read his stands you'll quickly realize this guy isn't really for or against anything, he is more like covering his ass so that he will get more votes at least as far as i can see.

the "stands" that he holds and that makes him different than other republicans seems to be democratic views, so why not just vote and elect a democrat? so that you have president that is fully supported by his party? Because clearly Ron Paul is not! Anyway I'm not an American nor have I followed all of the debates but Ron Paul just kinda seems like the equivalent of Snakes on Plane hype for the presidential election.

Discuss!
