Bumping this because it's an interesting topic.

Ron Paul would've probably:

1) Done the "Marque and Reprisal" thing
2) Secured the border
3) Let Laisezz Faire economics take its course and destroy terrorism. "Peace is a powerful message".

How would Laissezz-Faire economics destroy terrorism?

Sarcastic jab at Libertarian anti-terrorism tactics (do nothing)

I kind of find the "Margue and Reprisal" idea hilliarious. I guess because it conjures up imagery of pirates and whatnot in my mind.
President Paul would create the American East India Company to deal with Al Queada!
