A few months ago, Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, came under heavy criticism for a racially charged newsletters, produced under his name. Paul has denied any wrong doing, claiming that he knew didn’t write the articles and furthermore, didn’t know what was in them.
But people close to Mr. Paul are speaking out, and they are disagreeing with Paul’s recollection.
He was deeply involved in the company that produced the newsletters, Ron Paul & Associates, and closely monitored its operations, signing off on articles and speaking to staff members virtually every day.
“It was his newsletter, and it was under his name, so he always got to see the final product … He would proof it,’’ said Renae Hathway, a former secretary in Paul’s company and a supporter of the Texas congressman.
