Dr. Ron Paul
While serving in Congress during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dr. Paul served on the HouseBanking committee, where he was a strong advocate for sound monetary policy and an outspoken critic of the Federal Reserve’s inflationary measures. He also was a key member of the Gold Commission, advocating a return to a gold standard for our currency. He was an unwavering advocate of pro-life and pro-family values. In 1984, he voluntarily relinquished his House seat and returned to his medical practice. He returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th district of Texas, serving on the House Financial Services Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee.Since his retirement from Congress, Dr. Paul has continued to work for limited constitutional government through organizations he founded, including the Foundation for Rational Economics and Education (FREE), Campaign for Liberty, and Liberty PAC. In addition to hosting the nationally syndicated podcast Ron Paul’s America, Dr. Paul has launched The Ron Paul Channel, an online network airing original programming on today’s most pertinent issues.Dr. Paul, the author of several best-selling books, most recently released The School Revolution: A New Answer for Our Broken Education System, offering a provocative look at how we need to change the way we think about America’s dysfunctional education system in order to fix it.
Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
Judge Andrew P. Napolitano is the youngest life-tenured Superior Court judge in the history of the State of New Jersey.

He has handled thousands of sentencings, motions, hearings, and divorces. He taught constitutional law and jurisprudence at Delaware Law School for two years and Seton Hall Law School for 11 years and was often chosen by the students as their most outstanding professor. Judge Napolitano returned to private law practice in 1995 and began television broadcasting in the same year.
Judge Napolitano joined Fox News Channel (FNC) in January 1998 and currently serves as the senior judicial analyst.

He is nationally known for watching and reporting on the government as it takes liberty and property.
He lectures nationally on the Constitution, the rule of law, civil liberties in wartime, and human freedom. The Judge is the author of seven books on the U.S. Constitution, two of which have been New York Times Best Sellers. His most recent book, Suicide Pact: The Radical and Unconstitutional Expansion of Presidential Power After 9/11, was released in November and exposes the alarming history of presidential power grabs performed in the name of national security.
