Chris Goodin, from Vancouver, Wash., and a friend sell chocolate-covered gold coins to raise money for Paul's Campaign for Liberty.

Paul has been probably the most severe critic in the entire U.S. Congress of the Federal Reserve, which he says is responsible for running the printing presses, devaluing the once-mighty dollar, and causing the recent spike in inflation. He advocates a return to a gold standard, which limits a central bank's ability to expand the money supply.
