Jesse Benton of Ron Paul’s Campaign for Liberty forwards this statement from the former presidential candidate.

In light of the danger American ships face, and with the Obama Administration now considering military action against pirates in Somalia, I thought you might enjoy Dr. Paul’s new video on the subject.

We’ve heard a lot about Somalia in the mainstream press over the last couple of weeks with talk of pirates near the Horn of Africa, and mortar shells being lobbed at US Congressmen.  But a different side of the story has emerged in the independent media.

President Barack Obama’s financial stimulus package does nothing to change one fundamental problem with the current economic crisis: It fails to hold accountable the greedy bankers who caused the financial meltdown in the first place.
