He's brought up Spooner several times, I am sure he did it on Cavuto.  How many statists mention Lysander Spooner as a "hero"?

I admit that I would actually be tempted to vote at all if Ron Paul grew a beard like one of the following: Spooner, Hess, or Tolstoy (or myself!).  Haha.

I think this campaign season has definitely proved the point in No Treason about unaccountability and the Constitution having no authority.  Though, as I said... Ron's always said that he has always had extremely low standards.  I doubt he is surprised by the revelation that No Treason holds more truth today than even then.

Well, I think Harrison had a sweet beard, but that wasn't exactly a perfect presidency: http://cache.viewimages.com/xc/3203068.jpg?v=1&c=ViewImages&k=2&d=C037F202D99E309937BAE22F5277B6DEA55A1E4F32AD3138

But you are right: RP would DEMAND respect with a grizzly flavor savor.  On that note, might be time to let mine get finger length again.
