Asked about the John Birch Society Society by the New York Times, Ron Paul responds, “Is that BAD? I have a lot of friends in the John Birch Society. They’re generally well-educated and they understand the Constitution. I don’t know how many positions they would have that I don’t agree with.”

In sharp contrast to Ron Paul channeling his inner Sterling Hayden, Rudy Giuliani sews up both the nomination and the general election in a single highly strategic endorsement. Not to mention locking in the votes of both Thomas "Big Tom" Callahan and his son Tommy.
