Ron Paul Blog

Ron Paul atleast gets respect from moderates and the stupid Libs! Palin is laghed at by most of the country, even people in our own party! i can’t see us winning with her as the candidate in 2012, if she runs! don’t get me wrong i like her as a person, but i don’t think most of america will side with her on the issues or even take her seriously!

Am I the only true conservative that sees this?

I’ve seen where Pat Buchanan has said good things about Ron Paul. Pat has ran for President before and did well in New Hampshire in 1996(?) where Paul is gaining momentum. Would Paul chose Buchanan as a running mate?

Congressman Ron Paul (R) is seeking the Republican nomination. Why is it a good idea to support him?

Republicans support him:
You believe in abortion and immigration laws but still think thats its time the party of small government acted like it. Ron Paul has never voted to raised taxes and is the most economically conservative of all choices. He understands that every time the government spends money, yours is worth less forcing you to work harder.

Democrats support him:
Ron Paul has come out more against the war than even the front line Democrat candidates. He is also against the Patriot Act, REAL ID, and the NAU. If Ron Paul wins the nomination you have a anti-war candidate vs a anti-war candidate in the general election and the war will end.

Libertarian support him:
Your concerned about the fraud that is the Federal Reserve and government spending. You believe in freedom and peoples right to run their own life. You also support Ron Paul even though he is a quasi-libertarian.

People go from McCain to Ron Paul because Ron Paul is more conservative.
A lot of young people go for Obama because of the excitement. But when they learn about the issues, they switch to Ron Paul.
Ron Paul only suspended his campaign a month ago. He could still win.
1.2 million people voted for Ron Paul. Ron Paul ha 600+ delegate.

I think Ron Paul hit the nail on the head when he said this election is just a big charade. We have a choice to choose the lesser of 2 evils. Personally I am getting tired of this charade, aren’t you? So far all the candidates are just reading speeches wrote for them whether it is for the President or VP. Who ever reads the speech best seems to be popular that particular day. I am a Democrat but would be happy to see Ron Paul be President. McCain, no way, Obama , getting tired of same ol, same ol. How do you feel?

of all candidates I have researched about on the internet, I have seen Ron Paul have the maximum support, but unfrotunately in reality, i.e. during the elections primaries/caucus all that hype never translated into real votes or enough delegates – why did it happen like that? I mean he has consistently failed to secure any of the top three ranks in the state primaries, despite all the internet hype.

Regardless of what you think of Ron Paul, he is at least right about what motivates terrorists: US military basis and US dominance of Muslim countries. Most Muslims, including myself, agree with that assessment and think that other Republican candidates are less than honest about this issue. Can you agree with Ron Paul on this and disagree on other things?

It just seems like if the Republicans wanted to win and restore their party and image they should be looking at the one guy who matches the Democratic party and might actually pick up quite a few Democratic votes as well.

The Republicans are losing hundreds and thousands of votes because of Iraq. Ron Paul says he will end the war and bring home the troops immediatly. So wouldn’t it be smart for the Republicans to save their votes and party by selecting Ron Paul?

I don’t get it, the guys fundraising numbers are through the roof, the only signs and stickers I ever see are for Ron Paul but he is still at the back for the bus for poll numbers. My theory is that most of his supporters don’t have land lines cause they are a little more tech savvy and younger. Any other theories?

It seems like the media hasn’t really given Ron Paul enough time to explain all of his views in detail in order to not make him sound like a fool. At first his ideas sound really strange but some of his ideas don’t seem all that bad when you look at them in detail to many people.
I am still very skeptical over Ron Paul’s ideas though, most of them seem too quick in change (I think the word is radical) to me
