Super Paul: PAC Selling Ron Paul Action Figures
Kyle Leighton
Its a bird. Its a plane (with passengers never screened by the TSA). Its Rep. Ron Paul!
A super PAC supporting Paul, Revolution PAC, is selling action figures of the candidate to raise money for their efforts. There are two options seen on the website the Commander-in-chief Ron Paul model, complete with a snug fitting black suit and a rolled up copy of the US Constitution in his hand, and Super-hero Ron Paul, in which the congressman wears a blue and red suit like Superman.
And yet, even this bit of fun doesnt pass without the political. Barack Obama certainly doesnt have a corner on the action figure market, remarks Revolution PAC chair Gary Franchi in a release. Ron Paul proved he could go head to head with Obama in the Jones Soda bottle ballots during the 2008 campaign. Im quite confident that hell be competitive in the collectible toy demographic as well.
