His shoes aren't completely fabulous! I don't know if I can vote for him anymore, thank god someone pointed this out. Oh wait, my brain just kicked in again-it only means he's not gay. Hmm, can I vote for a non-gay candidate who would allow gay marriage in this country? Yeah, I can do that. Carry on. Holy crap you’re right! His shoes aren’t completely fabulous!

Some people ride around in golf carts so why dont you go easy on him until he becomes president and then you can judge his shoes when he is not walking miles every day.

"Avast! This man cares not about the sabots upon his feet... To hell with his foreign and domestic policy, a lack of fashion sense will surely doom us all!" I'm sorry, I'm an engineer. Some things in my life are more important than shoes.

No one in Congress imputes Ron Paul's character - his honesty, seriousness, and effectiveness as a congressman are among his most noted characteristics - so I certainly hope you don't base anything on his footwear. I'm with Hunter though; he'd probably wear a different pair if you suggested it (as long as it didn't hurt his knees). It’s saner to decide one’s foreign policy based on shoes?

I think that is a fully sufficient excuse for him to wear shoes that are aimed at comfort over style. But for those of you that find it to be a problem, how about you contact the campaign and find out his shoe size, then you can send him a sample of a shoe that you believe provide a more professional appearance while still offering him the comfort that he requires. I love Ron Paul!!!! --Hunter Ron Paul has had knee replacement surgery in BOTH knees. I think that is a fully sufficient excuse for him to wear shoes that are aimed at comfort over style.

Unless you are in an executive position, wearing a suit will only get you snickered at. At these companies, employees tend to work very long hours (50-60 hrs/wk is common, sometimes more). If I'm gonna be slaving away in front of my computer for 15 hrs straight, I damn well better be wearing something comfortable. But I do think that if you are in a position where you will be seen by customers/clients/media, you should at least make an effort to look presentable.

I was gonna vote for Ron Paul to help constrain tyranny and end international slaughter of the innocents but now i’ve changed my mind. Did you see how his Iowa supporters were wearing frumpy pleated shorts and dorky shirts? Its a good thing freedom is based on apearance. Not! I’m sure your hipness will help you survive the coming internment camps for freethinkers. Oh wait you don’t have to worry about that. Or maybe I don’t care because I’m a dirty hippie radical lefty who supports Ron Paul. Like ohmygod did you see how funy his legs looked on the abc interview the other day?
