It’s interesting: Ron Paul keeps talking about how “we” — i.e. Republicans — won all of these elections by embracing anti-interventionist foreign policies. He cites Eisenhower’s promise to clean up Korea, Richard Nixon for pulling out of Vietnam and Bush running on a “humble” foreign policy. Two points: First, it’s interesting how he keeps stressing partisan victory as a priority. Second, it’s even more interesting how he leaves out Ronald Reagan — who certainly didn’t run on a humble foreign policy in 1980. I disagree with a lot of his electoral analysis regarding both Ike and Nixon, but I guess the lesson is it’s Reagan’s party after all.
