Here's the press release. I added the links.

(PressMediaWire) ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA – Republican presidential candidate and Texas Congressman Ron Paul’s campaign has been endorsed by legendary folk singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie.

Guthrie, known for a series of hits including “Alice’s Restaurant,” issued the following endorsement of Dr. Paul:

“I love this guy. Dr. Paul is the only candidate I know of who would have signed the Constitution of The United States had he been there. I'm with him, because he seems to be the only candidate who actually believes it has as much relevance today as it did a couple of hundred years ago. I look forward to the day when we can work out the differences we have with the same revolutionary vision and enthusiasm that is our American legacy.”

We love your songs and would love to see you put together a tour with Ron Paul.....after all, Huckabee may have Chuck Norris..McCain has Stallone....but WE have the one and the only Arlo Guthrie!! They can't compete with that.

Sure would love to see you add Alice's restaurant to your song list!!
