Ron Paul and buddy Don Black, a former American Nazi Party member.

Not one Republican candidate has mentioned this photograph, circulated via social media by an #occupy protest group last week:It shows Paul posing with Don Black, a former American Nazi Party member turned KKK Grand Wizard and owner of the white supremacist Stormfront.org. And it’s not just a matter of unfortunate photo ops.

Bill White, founder of the American National Socialist Movement, claims that Paul’s disavowal of white supremacy is insincere. White opened a recent blog post noting that he felt “compelled to tell the truth about Ron Paul’s extensive involvement in white nationalism.” He writes:

… Congressman Paul and his aides regularly meet with members of the [white supremacist] Stormfront set, American Renaissance, the Institute for Historic Review, and others … in Arlington, Virginia, usually on Wednesdays. This is part of a dinner that was originally organized by [white nationalists] Pat Buchanan, Sam Francis and Joe Sobran, and has since been mostly taken over by the Council of Conservative Citizens.

I have attended these dinners, seen Paul and his aides there, and been invited to his offices in Washington to discuss policy.

For his spokesman to call white racialism a “small ideology” and claim white activists are “wasting their money” trying to influence Paul is ridiculous. Paul is a white nationalist of the Stormfront type who has always kept his racial views and his views about world Judaism quiet because of his political position.
