Doug Wead, a born-again Christian who worked for George H.W. Bush and whom Paul has tasked with rallying Christians nationally for his candidacy, has helped Paul to craft a message tailored specifically to religious conservatives.

Paul quotes Proverbs 22:7--"the borrower is servant to the lender"--when discussing his Israel policy. He cites Deuteronomy 25:15, which commands a system of "honest weights and measures" to argue for sound monetary policy. And he often tells the story of how Jesus drove the money lenders out of the temple to illustrate his outrage over his belief that the Federal Reserve dilutes the value of currency.

When Paul was on stage that night, a man who claimed to work for the Paul campaign was caught slipping anti-Gingrich flyers under the doors of the pastors' hotel rooms. The campaign says the man is not involved with the candidate in any capacity--the flyers said they were printed by a mysterious group called "Iowans for Christian Leaders in Government"--but the insinuation couldn't have helped Paul, who already was perceived as an outsider out at the conference.

Regardless, Paul's team saw having access to Lane's network of Iowa religious leaders as a major breakthrough.

"The bottom line," Wead said, "is that we are now battling for the evangelical vote too."

Well Paulites I've been telling you about Ron Lawl's ties to Christian Reconstructionist for weeks yet you refuse to see. Ron is associated with the likes of Gary North and Chuck Baldwin who is a Pastor which Ron endorsed for president in 2008.

Christian Reconstuctionists wish to destroy the US by undermining the US government and make life so horrible for Americans that they would accept a Christian based government with the Church in control. I feel that is the reason Ron Lawl is hell bent on ending the FED in these vulnerable economic times.
