SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Ron Paul has agreed to answer a few questions submitted by Syracuse.com readers before his visit to Syracuse next week.

Please leave your questions in the comments below and I will choose a few to ask during a telephone interview Friday afternoon.

Paul is the former Texas congressman who twice sought the Republican Party nomination for president.

He is scheduled to speak at Syracuse University Wednesday March 26. Paul is a guest of the College Republicans. The event starts at 7:30 p.m. in Hendricks Chapel. Tickets costs $5 for the public. It is free for students. Call the Schine Box Office at 443-4517.

Paul's Libertarian Party message is popular among students. He calls for limiting the size of government, strengthening civil liberties and shrinking America's involvement in foreign wars. He wants to repeal the Patriot Act and eliminate drug laws.

A visit to Cornell University during the 2012 presidential race drew more than 4,000 people.
