At a speech today in the Sun Dome at the University of South Florida ahead of the Republican convention, Ron Paul said if he had been in charge 9/11 wouldn’t have happened.

Paul was discussing foreign policy when he said: “Somebody… said the other day on the Internet, ‘if those Paul people had been in charge, Osama Bin Laden would still be alive.’”

He countered that statement with a very strong message: “But you know what I think the answer is? So would the 3000 people [killed] on 9/11, be alive!”

What do you think?
