Ron Paul's support for health freedom scrutinized

Who are you voting for President next year? If you're into freedom of health choices, you may want to turn your attention to candidate Ron Paul. This isn't an endorsement of course, but a look into his health care proposals.

Paul looks to support health freedom through his support of the "Health Freedom Protection Act." This act of Congress (literally, heh) seeks to end censorship of nutritional supplement health claims while providing scientifically accurate information as it relates to natural health products outside the pharmaceutical industry's "drug" approach.

What do you think?It's amazing to see what can't be published about natural health products while manufactured, synthetic products claim health benefits all over the place. Is Paul the right person to restore equal access to public information without some industry meddling in the muck? What do you think?
