[1]Dr. Clark Carlton [2], author of The Faith [3] book series, as well as several good essays and articles around the net and podcaster [4] for Ancient Faith Radio [5], has sent an open letter (pdf) [6] to fellow Orthodox Christians about the presidential election of 2008. Being Dr. Carlton, he does not leave ancient Orthodox history out of the discussion, but the discussion ends up coming to the same conclusion that I have: “We need a Ron Paul in the White House more desperately now than we ever have at any time in our history.” Read the open letter (pdf) here.

I haven't seen consensus building around a presidential candidate, this enthusiastic for a long time. For those of you in the San Francisco Bay Area, Dr. Paul will be here at Charleston Park next to Google [8] headquarters this Saturday at 10:00 AM. See details here [9]. Geek Orthodox Pilgrim's Blog will cover the event.
