Ron Paul one of the more courageous candidates?

I don't agree with him on a whole lot. But he says things that take a lot of guts to say. He's one of the few in his party who opposed the wars from the beginning, he is against the war on drugs but not because he supports drug usage but because he understands the government needs to leave people alone. And he is also against the unconstitutional Patriot ACT. What do you think?
