Brian Tracy Acknowledges Von Mises

For those who don't know who Brian Tracy is, here is a short bio: 

Brian Tracy has traveled and worked in more than ninety countries worldwide. He has started, built, managed, or turned around twenty-two different companies and produced more than 300 audo and video learning programs for individuals and corporations in forty-one languages. Brian has written 38 books which are distributed worldwide. He has worked with more than 1,000 corporations and addresses more than 250,000 people each year in the U.S., Canada, and forty other countries.

I've looked up to Mr. Tracy for over a decade now. I've ready many of his books, have seen him speak several times; and even had the pleasure of briefly meeting him once. I've always found value in his teaching on personal responsibility.

Not long ago, before reading one of his most recent books titled Something for Nothing, I happily noticed the following in the acknowledgments: 

"First and foremost is Ludwig von Mises, perhaps the greatest thinker of the twentieth century, whose commitment to liberty, freedom, and the ideals of the free society have had an impact that my have brought down the Iron Curtain and assured the blessings of liberty to more people than anyone else." 

Being that Mr. Tracy speaks to hundreds of thousands each year, it would be great to see him endorse Ron Paul for President.
