Endorsing Ron Paul, and Why Progressive Dems Should Support Ron Paul
Ron Paul is my first choice for a Republican candidate. There. I've said it. Of all the Republicans, he's the one I think is the best. His positions on the constitution, on the war, on globalism on nation building and interventionism are ones I can get behind. He's not perfect, but he's far, far ahead of any other Republican in the race. This publisher of one of the top five progressive media sites (based on traffic stats from alexa.com) is endorsing Ron Paul for Republican presidential candidate. .

Detention center program offers chance to hope, cope, learn
Baker takes a concept, finds a hands-on way to teach it and adjusts it for each student, more challenging for some, less for others.Learning the concepts is important, he says, but he measures success in other ways."When you see a kid who used to be so polarized against the world and he’s making statements where he’s leading others in the pod … does it mean they get on the outs and run for Senate? No."But once they get to that place where they open their mind, they can’t go back."Nancy Campbell calls it the Happy Circle. The class is designed to help students see themselves in a more positive light, to learn empathy.Each student takes a turn around the circle, saying something positive that’s happened that day. Their comments are framed by the realities of limited freedom and the looming presence of the justice system."I might get to go home today.""I got to eat a piece of chocolate.""I’m alive.""I went to court.""They lowered my bond."Then, Campbell spreads laminated cards on the floor and the students pick one that shows how they really feel.Sad.
