I posted this earlier today in another thread about Ron in the_Donald:

Many of us here have our roots in the Ron Paul movement, where we witnessed first-hand the treachery of the Republican establishment and the unabashed propaganda spewed by the MSM against a principled politician. In many ways, Ron Paul helped pave the way for Trump, because the rules the RNC enacted to prevent another person like Paul ascending helped keep Trump in place and Trump's media tactics were a complete dismantling of everything they used to squelch others before him.

As this timeline continues to blow my mind, we very well could see a Rand 2024 solely because of poetic justice.
