Ron Paul in Cohen’s Bruno
So evidently Ron Paul makes an appearance in Sacha Baron Cohen’s new movie, Bruno. The movie is about a gay Austrian fashion commentator. In the movie, Bruno drops his pants in front of Dr. Paul during an interview. Of course, Dr. Paul very quickly storms off the set.
I’m not sure why Cohen picked Ron Paul. Possibly having to do with Austrian economics (seeing as how Bruno is supposedly Austrian), which Ron Paul thought the interview was going to be about. But who knows, even though the scene is rather disrespectful and seems to make a mockery of the serious nature of Dr. Paul’s ideals, it might help with exposure. I guess it just depends on what lengths you’re willing to go for publicity.
