Conservative Party of New York State:
You may remember Lewis E. Lehrman writing about the gold standard in the year before the ’82 campaign, when he ran on the Conservative Party line for Governor. Here’s a video of Lew talking about the gold standard on Fox Business News Wednesday night. (February 23, 2011)
You might also be interested in Lew’s take on Abraham Lincoln’s patriotism.
Or George Washington’s Farewell.
Lewis Lehrman served alongside Rep Ron Paul on the U.S. Gold Commission, appointed by President Reagan in 1981 to study the possibilities of a return to a gold-backed U.S. dollar.
Libertarian economists Murray Rothbard, Joe Cobb and others served as advisors to the Gold Commission.
The report of the Commission was published as “The Case for Gold” available online @ http://mises.org/books/caseforgold.pdf
