What does "man of integrity" mean? I'm willing to tentatively accept that Ron Paul didn't write material like this:

I've been told not to talk, but these stooges don't scare me. Threats or no threats, I've laid bare the coming race war in our big cities. The federal-homosexual cover-up on AIDS (my training as a physician helps me see through this one.) The Bohemian Grove--perverted, pagan playground of the powerful. Skull & Bones: the demonic fraternity...

I'll even grant for the sake of argument that he has some more-or-less good reason for not revealing the name of the staffer(s) who published this in his name. But if I were John Stewart, hearing Paul say it's enough for him to have a smaller base who "gets the message", I'd have to ask about it and give him a chance to say that he'd never hire anyone like that for his hypothetical administration. Assuming that he does want to lose the white supremacist vote.
