Paul will attempt to bring nation back to sanity

Why worry about candidates for president when the nation is on a destruct course? This destruction commenced with the decline of support for the U.S. Constitution. The national debt stands just under $16 trillion and the present administration is considering raising the ceiling another trillion plus before the November election. Funds sent to foreign nations and congressional spending increasing while our nation flounders and erodes.
We ask: Is it possible to recover and bring about a balanced budget in order to save the United States of America? On November election day, by selecting senators and a president who will conscientiously adhere to the U.S. Constitution, will it be possible to save our nation?
Listening to the candidates, Ron Paul seems the only one with an understanding and the desire to attempt to bring our nation back to sanity.
