    Ron Paul is a doctor himself and if I remember correctly he had some specific ideas for health care reform, but I can't remember what they are and I'm guessing his campaign website is now defunct. I think a lot of his ideas hinged on charities helping out the less fortunate with their medical bills.

    I think it was "They should work for cheaper" and he apparently offers a lowish rate and sometimes does free work. Don't quote me on that, would need to googlefu to confirm.
