Here's an item from Paul back in December from a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee email:
It was one of my life's proudest achievements.
More than the films, more than the awards - finding out that I was on Nixon's Enemies List meant that I was doing something right.
Nixon didn't like my campaigning for Democratic presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy. But then again, he didn't much care for debate, dissent, or the Constitution either.
I was proud to stand with Democrats against an imperial president back then. And I am proud now to stand with a new generation of Democrats against a president who poses what I believe to be the biggest internal threat to American democracy in my lifetime.
