Ron Paul Congratulates the John Birch Society on 50th Anniversary


April 28, 2008

Congressman Ron Paul has endorsed the John Birch Society in a statement recently received from his office. Dr. Paul stated, “The John Birch Society is a great patriotic organization featuring an educational program solidly based on constitutional principles. I congratulate the Society in this, its 50th year. I wish them continued success and endorse their untiring efforts to foster ‘less government, more responsibility, and — with God’s help — a better world.’”

John McManus, president of JBS, responded, “We graciously accept Dr. Paul’s endorsement. He continues to demonstrate what an elected official should be doing … obeying the Constitution. We thank him for his continuous commitment to protect the freedoms of all Americans. There’s a reason why he consistently rates toward the top of the Freedom Index, our congressional scorecard rating legislators’ votes published twice a year in THE NEW AMERICAN magazine.”

Dr. Paul’s endorsement comes after confirmation that he has agreed to be the keynote speaker at the Society’s 50th anniversary celebration, October 2-5, in Appleton, Wisconsin.
