ARLINGTON, Texas, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Former Texas Congressman and Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul said the demise of his son's presidential campaign is because voters listen to candidates with "magical answers."
"Conditions are different right now and unfortunately, people are scared and are much more willing to listen to people who have magical answers -- 'I'm going to take care of you, just listen to me and we know the answers,'" Paul told KERA on Friday. "There's a lot of demagoguing going on, so it's not easy to present the case of liberty where people assume the responsibility for themselves."
