Tom Wolfe on 2012 Election: "I Wrote in Ron Paul"

|

Tom Wolfe, great journalist and novelist of American manners, chronicling at his best America's heroic pioneers of inner space (Electric Kool Aid Acid Test) and outer space (The Right Stuff) tells Reason Contributing Editor Michael Moynihan over at the Daily Beast who he voted for in 2012:

"The only times I have not voted with the American people–I don't know what that says about me–recently when I did a write in vote for first time in my life, I wrote in Ron Paul…who wasn't even running but i hoped that would start a kind of landslide…"

I wish it had, Mr. Wolfe.
