End of the Line for Ron Paul’s Insurgent Campaign

Ron Paul campaign strategy end

AP

Ron Paul’s plan for a delegate insurgency has reached the end of the line.

The Texas congressman won just two of Nebraska’s 35 delegates at the state party convention Saturday, dashing his final hope of having his name placed in contention for the Republican presidential nomination.

GOP rules require a candidate win a plurality of delegates in at least five states to have their name presented for nomination at the national convention. Nebraska, the last state to hold its convention, was Paul’s last chance to reach that threshold as part of his delegate-driven strategy. He was soundly beaten by presumptive nominee Mitt Romney, who won the other 33 delegates, the Omaha World Herald reported.

Paul’s loss means he will not be guaranteed a speaking slot at the convention in Tampa, Fla. next month, and will have to rely on Romney and convention organizers to grant him time instead. Paul said Friday he believes the Romney campaign is “insecure” about having him speak, possibly out of concern he would use it to rally his supporters.

According to ABC News, Paul’s campaign said it plans to bring about 500 supportive delegates to Tampa, guaranteeing his presence will still be felt. He is also planning to hold his own rally around Tampa, and his supporters have organized Paul Festival 2012, an independent event that will feature live music.

Think about it, the best the GOP has to offer for a presidential candidate is someone who has flip flopped on just about every issue that is important to “conservatives”. The best the GOP has to offer supports legislation that empowers the president with the tyrannical powers of arresting, detaining indefinately, even assassinating U.S. Citizens without charge or trial or even allowing legal representation. The best the GOP has to offer created the legislation Obama based his Affordable Health Care Act (ObamaCare) off of.

      You have shown tremendous insight except for this ONE issue. First step, get rid of Obama, Holder, Napalitano, Sebelius et al. Next step, hold Romney to a conservative small government standard. 3rd step, use these next 4 years to mainstream libertarianism. We should audit the fed, reform taxes and entitlements within this next four year period. That would set the stage for a 4th step within the decade. Remember, the left worked for 100 years to get us here as we are now.

      With a strong conservative/libertarian Congress and Supreme Court, Romney will do the right thing. Obama will only use his power of veto, fill the courts with more radicals, and CONTINUE to instruct Homeland Security, EPA, FCC, FDA, Federal Reserve, HHS, etc, etc. to do all his dirty work. He’s already using these thugs to change America, and with 4 more years, we the people will NEVER get our country back.

      Use your head not your heart Spud … You know a Ron Paul vote is a dead vote and is the same as voting for Fuhrer Obama. As a mother, I beg you to please protect my children and grandchildren from living under communist Obama rule.

      Americans are counting on Ron Paul supporters to kick Obama out of office. Even Ron Paul has stated that Romney is a much better choice than Obama.

      The campaign wasn’t just for the role of President. It’s a campaign to awaken Americans. It’s a campaign to restore our freedoms and to return to Constitutional Government.

      Whether or not Ron Paul becomes president, it is not the end of the road of the movement that was started. Ron Paul supporters are no longer just Ron Paul supporters. We are the fighters of freedom, the fighters against tyranny of the two party system. More of us are becoming active in politics, more of us will influence the nation.

      “[...] and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. [...]”

      ” [...] help turn the ship around and vote against Obama.”

      That’s making a huge assumption that Romney is capable or willing to actually TURN the ship around, which he has not even come close to demonstrating. What exactly has he presented as actual plans to turn the ship around? He doesn’t have any real solid plan, outside of riding the “ABO” crowd. We got Obama from the “Anyone But Bush” mentality, you think this is still the best method of finding the leader of our nation?

      Core principle. Honestly. The United States Constitution. Freedom. That’s who I look for in a President. Ron Paul fit the bill, I may not have agreed with him 100%, but I agreed with more of his core principles than I ever have with any other candidate AND he had a 30 year track record to back it up, so I know that what he says is what he’ll do.

      Flip Flop Romney, do you really believe that out of all the flip flopping he’s done, that he won’t flip flop from his campaign rhetoric like every other presidential candidate has done…. for a very long time….? How can you trust a flip flopper to keep his word, and the fact that his word is so…. vague, how can you trust that he will actually turn this ship around?

      I’m not buying it. I will be voting on principle. Not for the lesser of the two evils.

      @JUSTANGRY … Maybe you’re right. Ron Paul may have been our best chance to save America, and we may have blown it. However, our country has a process for selecting nominees, Paul gave it his all and lost pretty significantly. We’re now down to two – Romney and Obama.

      We may not like our two choices, but Obama has openly stated his desire for America to be just another country in the New World Order. Can you honestly tell me you‘re prepared to give up everything you’ve worked hard to earn to corrupt governments in other countries?

      I’m a Texan and very disturbed by Democrats trying to disenfranchise honest legal voters like you and me. They’re giving special interest groups and illegals an open invitation to stuff our ballot boxes and raise our family members from graves, so they can win the election for Obama and other Democrats. This makes me uncomfortable, and I would assume, being a principled individual as yourself, you’re uncomfortable with this activity as well. Whether we like Romney or not, he’s the better choice, and our common sense must prevail to prevent Obama from having 4 more years to destroy our country.

      With Romney in office, all will not be lost. I believe Conservatives and Libertarians will flood Congress this year, and they better use the opportunity to educate Americans. With Americans better educated, Ron Paul supporters can look forward to future elections (perhaps with Judge Napolitano as their candidate.)

      Another Vote For Obama! All of you blind sheep are going to be greatly disappointed in November when Obama does win a second term, but it will not be the fault of Ron Paul supporters, it will be yours. You people who just go along with the flow because you are afraid of losing your possessions. Materialistic bunch of whine babies if you ask me. You all come on here and berate Obama and grasp at straws to find someone to defeat him. We Paul supporters do not berate Obama so much because it is not Obamas fault he is POTUS, it is all oj=f your fault he is POTUS. You either voted for him in ‘08 or you nominated McCain as the Republican nominee. Either way you are to blame, and by nominating Romney, you will be to blame again. It is not like we have not told you what we are going to do. Some of us will vote for Johnson, some for Virgil Goode, some, like myself, will write in Pauls name. Romney cannot win without us, therefore, you all have made a poor decision as Paul would have won by a landslide. So on election day when you are drinking yourself into oblivion because you realize that your vote was wasted, think of me saying; “I told you so.”

If drugs were legal you would take the dealer out of the picture. All that money could benfit the tax payyers. We could make drug users look like fools. We could curb our gang problem. But neocons(yes you are truely neocons) like TIME hear legal drugs and he flashes back to the 60s were all those hippys were calling him a baby killer, and hes just never let that go.

Ron Paul endorsed the Constitution Party candidate in 2008, and that was knowing that he still had an upcoming re-election campaign and possibly presidential campaign…..Now, Ron Paul is retiring and has NOTHING to hold him back. I fully expect him to endorse Gary Johnson, UNLESS the republicans do a 180 and accept a lot of his ideas. Approving the upcoming Audit the Fed bill would be a good start.

We have gotten sooo far away from it and been conditioned to think otherwise that we can’t even see it anymore.

      You can classify most of our founders as Libertarians, thus why we got a Republic, and if you want to try and save it Libertarianism is the only way that’s going to happen. So if you truly do then drop the GOP and or DEMS like they’re hot and get on board with being a Libertarian. Unless of course you like people going to jail for horrible crimes such as buying raw milk, selling lemonade, and smoking pot.

      The “lesser of two evils” argument is tiresome and does the user of it no favors. It is the mark of one that cannot stand up for their own princicples and lacks conviction. If your choice between president were Hilter or Stalin, would you still vote for the “lesser of the two?” Or, would you use your mind and write someone in. At least then you can tell your children that you had no part in helping the madness.

      To say voting for Ron Paul is a vote for Obama also does not stand, and on multiple levels. First of all, it is a vote for Paul, not Obama. Duh! Second,to say one must chose between the two that the parties have selected even though everyone seems to agree that the parties are thoroughly corrupt is an afront to the very nature of democracy! Do your own thinking and choose the one that reflects your principle.

      Lastly, a vote for Romney is more like a vote for Obama. They have so much in common. Romney can never call himself a conservative when he supports the Patriot Act (actually wants to increase its reach), supports the bailouts, and supports stronger centralized government. Just check out hi voting record.

      Never change your mind, just because a party or those with feeble minds tell you to do so.

      I, for one, will still vote with the greater of the choices and write Dr. Paul’s name in. And, best of all, it is the only vote I will ever cast where my consience is clean and I have never felt better about it. Not so for “lesser of two evils”

      The Republican Party, like all the others have a mix of views. Libertarians are in the correct party imo because economic freedom is paramount to Republicans. Republicans have within its party progressives and libertarians. The Constitutional Party has positivists and originalists. The Libertarian Party has Socialist-libertarians, anarcho-libertarians and classic liberals (libertarians or Thomas Jefferson libertarians). The Socialist Party has Leninists, Marxists and soft Communists. The Democrat Party has liberals, socialists and blue dog Democrats within the party. As you can see there are many views within the party systems. So to boot libertarians out of the Republican Party you would be marginalizing a lot of voters including many within the tea party movement.

      You remind me of a female in my local Republican Party that hates us Ron Paul supporters. She basically wants every Republican to fit in her box and see the world as she sees it. If you do not, you are not a “conservative” or Republican.

You see, Patriot, you and the others have one overiding goal–prevent Romney from getting elected. You would rather obama ruin this nation for another four years than “risk” Romney for the next four. That shows political fanaticism that is so universally rejected by conservatives. I truly feel Romney will be a better president that anyone can imagine. Reagan was also feared to be too liberal, but wound up being a great president, though I still recall paul followers berating him.

      After a recent article on Romney‘s religion I saw what most of you guy’s true feelings are, and that is you despise him for his mormon faith. I was fairly taken aback when I read posts from you and others that were so vehement and bigoted. I thought you just had political opposition to him, but your EMOTION was so intense it revealed the spirit of a bigot. SO, anyway, keep fighting as you want.

For example, he has said NOTHING about guns and the 2nd Amendment even though the UN is currently attempting to pressure the US into signing the so-called “Arms Trade Treaty,” which would ultimately lead to total gun confiscation in this country, and we want to KNOW how he stands on this subject.

      Are his constituents in his district not tax payers? Is every single person in his district on welfare and pay ZERO dollars towards the federal budget? Do they need to be fleeced? None of his earmarks AKA allocations (Congress’s job is to allocate funds, yes) added to the budget of money that would ALREADY BE SPENT ONE WAY OR ANOTHER!!! If Congress, or specifically Ron Paul, doesn’t allocate specific funds to go back to his district, you are giving the President a blank check.

      So are you for giving the President a blank check? Should Congress not have any earmarks aka allocations and just give President Obama a 70billion dollar blank check? That’s exactly what you are advocating when you criticize Ron Paul for creating such allocations.

      Reagan was right when he said the heart of conservatism is libertarianism. But sometimes you Paullowers and your self-righteous condemnation of anything not as pure as yourselves as you imagine makes me wonder where your true loyalty lies.
      You claim people who promise to make steps toward your own goals are traitors if they aren’t moving as quickly as you wish.
      You claim to be freethinkers as if Romney supporters are all mindless drones, when you yourselves are immune to evidence on matters (How many of you are still Truthers? How many still think Paul has a serious chance at the presidency? How many of you can’t distinguish between a candidate whose platform is government growth, and one whose principles shrink government’s role). Your willful blindness can be dangerous if you allow your disgust to inspire indifference in conservatives and independents.
      You talk about freedom and responsibility and how they’re inextricably linked so that self-govt is the only true form of govt, so govt should be limited and as local as possible: hence a fed const becomes so important.
      But you refuse your OWN responsibility to inspire Conservatives to insist on the freedoms you claim are so important. So now your answer is to stop making the only responsible choice left?

      @JSCIA You fault WEST COAST with not liking the religion of Romney.. I can tell you right now that West Coast had nothing to do with that..and though I respect any man’s right to believe as he wishes..Mormons take financial care of each other..and is a major incentive for people becoming Mormons..But Romney comes from a very very long line of Mormons..West Coast only posts the political similarities of the two men..Mormons on the other hand tend to go with the Mormon “End of Days’ and the “White Horse Prophesy”.. being that one of their own will arrive when the Constitution is in dissaray and will save the day..and will lead the whole world into a Mormon kingdom at the end of the world..This Mormon will rule by his ability to withhold or give food to the masses..this was all in the plan since Joseph Smith..A Mormon will be the answer..that is from an exMormon.. I have found that the Mormons and JWs went to the Rothschilds in the early 19 century for funding ..and think highly of them.. Obama’s and Romney stand together on issues of the taking of our rights..the Patriot Act NDAA Gun Contro. global warming cap and trade, big gov. and are financed by the same parties. What is the difference?

      JSCIAI, You are right that I do not believe in the Mormon religion anymore. I am baptized Mormon, and it was the beliefs that were taught to me while attending church that drove me from it, but I am not so shallow as to use the fact of Romney’s religion as my drive to not vote for him. It is his policy ideas from the past and the present, along with the fact that he is backed by the establishment along with Obama that will keep me from voting for him. Another thing is the fact that the vote was corrupted through the primary, and the fact that the Romney camp violated federal law in Massachusetts by forcing Paul delegates to sign a form under penalty of perjury to vote for Romney.
      42 USC 1971 (b) Intimidation, threats, or coercion
      No person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, shall intimidate, threaten, coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, or of causing such other person to vote for, or not to vote for, any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, presidential elector, Member of the Senate, or Member of the House of Representatives, Delegates or Commissioners from the Territories or possessions, at any general, special, or primary election held solely or in part for the purpose of selecting or electing any such candidate.

      It amazes me that people who are about as anti Obama as can be will either vote for a third party ticket — which has no chance at all of winning — or will sit out the election in protest or as a “matter of principle.” By definition they are voting (or not voting) pro Obama. Voting for a candidate such as Gary Johnson instead of voting for the one candidate that has a chance of defeating the Obamanation is taking a step toward the reelection of the Incompetence-in-Chief.

      Do I think Romney is great candidate — NO! I worked hard on the Ron Paul campaign up to this point. But now that he has been eliminated from contention I will vote for the candidate that has a snowball’s chance in heck to defeat Obama. Will he be able — or even willing — to stop the escalation of big government; I don’t know. But I do know that at least the rush to destruction will be slowed down.

      During the next four years the President will most likely replace 2 if not 3 retiring Supreme Court Justices. If Obama is reelected we can count on more Justices cut from the same cloth as Sotomayor and Kagin. At least Romney will nominate moderates if not conservatives. Gary Johnson, Ron Paul or any other third party candidate won‘t have a say in the nominating process as they’ll be on the outside looking in.

      If one is really anti Obama they will pinch their nose and vote for Romney. Otherwise, they’ll be doing what my mom used to call, “Cutting off their nose to spite their face.”

      Every election we hold fast to the establishment progressive paradigm setup by the two colluding main stay parties.
      Every time we listen to the argument that “the vote for someone not establishment is a vote for the worse of the two”. Sorry, not this time.
      Ron Paul supporters are united and passionate. The argument is correct, with out the votes of the supporters of Paul, Obama WILL win. Everyone knows this, and you are being told the truth by Paul supporters that they will be casting their votes for him regardless of the tiring threat of another Obama Presidency. Knowing this then, you better start believing, and believing fast, that a vote for Romney is a vote for Obama. Passion counts, the Paul supporters are passionate about their guy and are going to vote for him.
      I’m telling all true Independents and Republicans to vote Paul, stop thinking you will sway Paul supporters into voting for anyone else. You won’t. If we really don’t want another Obama Presidency, it’s up to the Romney supporters to recognize this and do the right thing. The ball is in their court, because everyone knows where Paul supporters stand. If Obama wins it’s not because of Paul supporters, it’s because you think that theirs a choice between Obama and Romney.
      Romney will overturn Obamacare? No he won’t. He’ll water it down in a perfect example of the Overton Window. It’s a lame argument anyway.
      What I want to know is, will Romney overturn the Patriot Act and the NDAA. That‘s what’s i

      David_Ross, You should listen to KevinTampa. I can say with 99.99% accuracy, that you were never a true Ron Paul supporter, if at all, or you would not be giving in to the establishment. You are trying to deceive people that cannot be deceived.
      We are fervent supporters of Liberty. Paul was the only candidate that believes in true liberty. You will not sway us no matter how much you try, you see, we believe that four more of a lame duck POTUS is better than eight years of Republican progressive policies. Ron Paul supporters have stuck by their candidate of choice from the beginning, packing in crowds at all his rallies, doing the footwork that was needed in his campaign, while Romney supporters just stayed home allowing the media to dictate who was best. This is apparent in the way the masses went from one candidate to the next until the media finally said Romney was the guy. It is also apparent in the low, low crowds that Romney had at his rallies. His supporters stayed home to watch it on the news. At no time did the media give Paul a chance as the establishment reporters did not want any of you to know the whole truth.
      Because of this, you will all feel the wrath of another four years and maybe, just maybe you will not trash us the next go around in 2016, and maybe, just maybe you might take our words serious the next time.

When watching the news Liberal stations are all about making Obama look good, and “conservative Freedom Lovers” have Fox making Romney look good. The news is not supposed to be there to make people look good or bad but state the FACTS.

Your stance does, however, tend to make most of us wonder if it’s really a matter of conscience, or a matter of cult.

      @WAKINGSHEEP:

      Ron Paul supports many good things in domestic policies and seems insane in international affairs.

      In terms of what he supports, Romney may seem to be a lot closer to the Obama-in-Chief than Ron Paul.

      But…

      The “but” is that Ron Paul has NO CHANCE to be elected (he’s got only 2 delegates out of 35; all others are with Romney).
      Therefore voting for Ron Paul means automatically voting for the Disaster-in-Chief’s 2nd term.

      If the destruction of the USA is inevitable, then it would be better if it happens under obama: better for the future of GOP.

      But if there still is a slightest chance to avoid the complete destruction of our country, then we have to prevent the 2nd term of this Socialist-in-Chief by all means.

You tell me M13 what are Mr. Romney’s beliefs, his core values. You do as you know you should do what is in your heart of hearts. Vote for your canadite with out regret. Not give your vote to someone just because he is the party favorite. In case you haven’t noticed the Republicans stand for nothing. They are not out for the interests of the american people.

      Ron Paul can do more for this country if he is named Secretary of the Treasury or to head the Federal Reserve. He has been trying to get a complete and honest audit of the Federal Reserve for many years. The Fed is not a bank, nor is it Federal, it is a corrupt private group that runs the finances of our country. Ron Paul knows how rotten they are and how they are destroying our country for the wealth of a few.

      Lillith70, You have huge blinders on. Paul is in no way in this for power. He has said many times that the executive order, that gives a lot of power to one man, is unconstitutional and he would only sign one on the first day, to repeal every executive order ever written and to never sign another through his term. Now why would a man in it just for the power even consider doing such a thing? You are just another lost American, listening to the establishment reporters on the media, believing everything they say as though they are gods.

      How about a vote for conscience? You guys think the lesser of two evils will save you and you’re dead wrong. Not to mention, you sorry sacks better take your yellow ribbons and “support the troops” stickers of your cars if you vote for Romney because you obviously HATE the military.

      I’m voting for Ron Paul. That is, if Liberals/Conservatives don’t outlaw it before November.

      The herd mentality is alive and well among Conservatives as they run off a cliff together/vote for Romney-Mormon-cult-member and watered-down socialist extraordinaire.

      All of this in order to not ‘vote for Obama by voting for Ron Paul’. Exactly how they make that work in this universe I will never understand.

      But the Conservatives have a habit of attempting to bend reality to their will. They scream, “Give me liberty, with a side of social safety net, or give me death!”. Heck, 70% of their Tea Party can’t bear the thought of being pulled from the government nipple (medicare). Which is it, Conservatives, freedom, or ‘free stuff’? I know you think you can have both, but reality will slap you down in short order.

      I think I will go have that cake, and eat it.

      Conservatives claim to detest Obamacare, but it appears as though their herd will stampede to the polls in November to vote for the cult-member who helped design the prototype. Well done, flag-waiving ‘defenders of the constitution’, well done.

      Ron Paul is the only rational person in this race. That he isn’t way ahead right now is a sign of just how lost Americans really are. It’s a bad sign.

      THEY’re the smart ones, and everyone else is either a sellout or a useful idiot in the machine of some conspiracy theory.
      THEY’re the only freethinkers able to see past the propaganda to conclude that Obama and Romney have no important differences, and that therefore the truly smart people must support either a write-in or a 3rd party with no chance of gaining any constitutional power.
      THEY’re the only pure constitutionalists and freedom lovers because everyone else: a. doesn’t back their candidate; b. doesn’t believe in legalizing drugs and other vices; c. doesn’t believe in the moral relativism of strict and blind non-interventionism; d. actually believes in convincing other people to back their legislative priorities.
      Since when was it logical to, in effect, stand OUTSIDE the metaphorical arena shouting at all the real players that they aren’t the true athletes?
      What GOOD does it do to the country, to the constitution, if you keep LOSING and never have the POWER it takes to get your IDEAS implemented.
      Libertarian ideas are good in their direction in defense of freedom, but you’re the proverbial kid crying on the sidewalk because no one wants to play by your rules. Everyone else is still playing the game without you!

      Good question on whether or not Ron Paul will endorse Romney. I believe he will and I’ll tell you why. 1. Ron Paul is not stupid. He know’s obama is capable of doing extreme damage to this county–even more than he already had. 2. Romney’s creds: though not a perfect candidate(they don’t exist) Romney does have the CEO experience in both the public and private sectors to take the reigns of the nation. Paul knows this. 3. Rand has already endorsed Romney and if Ron doesn’t it will make his son look like an idiot. 4. Romney has always been respectful of Romney, and visa versa. During the primaries Romney never abused or attacked Paul when others were doing so. I feel they have a mutual respect that will encourage Paul to endorse him. 5. Paul will realize the need to unite as many conservatives together as possible to defeat obama.
      Of course, I may be completely wrong in all of this, but it just feels right to me.

This seems to fly in the face of that so-called libertarian freedom yall seem to espouse. There is no religious litmus test to be president. And for you folks to faith-bash Romney just discredits you more. You see, Yall seem to give a pass on everyone and everything but don’t give Romney a pass on ANYTHING. Thus, you have NO credibility.
      Now, just for the heck of it I took your bait on that white mare/end of the world swipe you took at the mormons. I believe you should go to the source to find out anything, and in searching the official mormon website I could find nothing on those topics. It could be argued they are ‘hiding’ something, but when I ran searches for other controversial topics there was information listed. I must then conclude this is not official church doctrine. Shall we take a look at your church’s beliefs and see which are official and which are urban legend?(that is assuming you have tie to a religion.) It’s all smoke an mirrors intended to divide the conservative vote and get obama re-elected. I’m not falling for that and will push to get Romney in and obama out.

I do however think we are the ones who see the big picture and see past the “anybody but BO; we must get him out at any cost” attitude. In a way I don’t blame people. I’ve read “the Roots of BO’s rage.” I know what he’s about and don’t’ like him anymore than the rest of you. But going off of emotion and having the same attitude that got BO elected and just feeding the fire that’s burning this country to the ground won’t work.

      BO isn’t the one who has destroyed this country; it started long before he came around. It’s been a slow process over a long time. Of course he isn’t helping in the slightest, but that’s not the point. I know, I know…it’s the “lesser of the two evils” but since when should evil be a choice at all?? Going about this cycle of voting in the better master doesn’t make us anymore free. As Webster once said, “There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern.

In fact, that’s what the government was originally supposed to be only able to do.

      But for the Diddo Heads, Becktarts, Fox Numbots, and Mormon cultist, there is no hope.

      If Ron Paul does not end up with the nomination he should come out and support Gary Johnson.

      You are stretching just a bit there.

      Take a look just to right of the main story boxes and notice that it is still #2 in the popular stories section for all to see, with well over 700 posts.

      Let’s be real now, OK?

      Would any other Paul people like to take a crack at my question above to BLACK9897?

      It’s just a hypothetical question……..I may be proven 100% wrong?

      So many people in this discussion just don’t seem to get it. Everyone arguing about what one guy is/was going to change or save America. Guess what, Ron Paul is not George Washington. Even if he were, George Washington was just one man and would have been completely ineffective and would have ammounted to diddly squat if it weren’t also for Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Pain, Benjamin Franklin, etc. etc. No single politician be it Romney or Ron Paul can save America. The ONLY hope America has is not to be found in any politician, the issues they support, or their voting record but in mothers and fathers raising good, moral children who work hard and take responsibility for themselves. If America‘s families will not pull together then it doesn’t matter how constitutional any one candidate is because it is only a matter of time before the American people choose somebody worse than Obama and willing to go further than Obama ever has. I like a lot of the things Ron Paul said he stood for (but I don’t trust him any more than any other politician) but he would have made a terrible President. He is not a leader and he would need to be one in order to accomplish any of the things he promises. He would only be able to deliver on his promises by becoming the opposite of what he says he is. I would love to explain this in full but there’s a stupid character limit on these posts. That being said, Obama was raised by radical communists, Romney wasn’t. That’s a good start.

      I know obama supporters that jumped on the Paul wagon as well so he is stealing votes from both parties. So please stop the “3rd party just steals votes away from the republican party” rhetoric…its so old and not a valid excuse if you lose to the democrats.

Maybe then we will return to a Reagan or a Washington and truly heal this limping nation. You don’t “take” something back by sittin on the bench.

      @The-Monk,
      A formulation I’ve never before considered. PROFOUND rule, imho.
      @Black,
      Thanks for the measured response and clear presentation.
      I’ll be happy to agree to disagree with a reasoned opinion like yours on the few but important points where we diverge, and still welcome you and all Libertarians where their votes still make a difference.
      You see, you can’t escape using the word “mentality” when describing the choice we have between Obama and Romney (which you insist have no differences), but the reality is…well…that it’s not a mentality anymore: it IS a real choice in the real world and bears real consequences.
      If you persist in maintaining that you will not choose the lesser of two evils because it’s good or nothing, then it’s YOU who are describing a mentality and not a reality. It is not logical to insist on full payment when faced with a choice between partial payment or total loss.
      Maybe our error on this thread is to accept your terms: Mitt is NOT MERELY the lesser of two evils. He has a BUNDLE of beliefs, of which 90% or more YOU AGREE WITH. Therefore he’s a GOOD choice, NOT an evil of the lesser sort.
      The very fact that he wants to reduce taxes means the govt would have less means to maintain, ergo smaller govt. Isn’t that worth fighting for? Can’t you at least get behind THAT?
      I keep returning to sports metaphors, but it’s accurate: shouting you are winning OUTSIDE the game ISN’T WINNING IT, isn’t even playing it. Engage, brother!

      Here is just a simple, sample list-(and there is PLENTY more) in no particular order-we can say that:
      1) Romney is not a Marxist-communist. Yes I realize that statement will have some who just woke up after a *5 year sleep wringing their hands, shaking their heads, and perhaps even laughing. If you don’t get this one by now…what can I say, other than you’ve really been sheltered. (*5, because many of us knew this about a year prior to the election)
      2) Romney would not promise Russia “more flexibility” at all, including when he thought he could be sneaky about it.
      3) Romney does want to “fundamentally change” America. This is not the job of any President, so he shouldn’t. Why would anyone want to change the greatest country in the world anyhow?
      4) Romney would not trash the constitution, multiple times. Romney would not write a book criticizing the U.S. constitution saying “it didn’t do enough for people”
      5) Romney does not have a bunch of socialists, Marxists, communists, and even two Maoists working in his administration. He wasn’t reared buy them either. He didn’t have a communist father (Barack Sr.) or a communist childhood mentor (Frank Marshall Davis). Romney did not “seek out Marxist professors” while in college, and then write a book about it telling us he did so.
      6) Romney did not sit in a church for 20 years where a radical, racist, Marxist, anti-American so-called Pastor presided. Romney was not involved with three other equally r

      7) Romney doesn’t/wouldn’t try to divide people by both class warfare and racial issues. He would not do countless things to incite jealousy, envy and covetousness.
      8) Romney would not run up our national debt more than the first 43 U.S. presidents COMBINED, in ONE TERM.
      9) Romney would not get on national television to claim capitalism a failure, as Obama claimed “We tried the free markets (capitalism) and it failed” when in reality he and his administration have been sawing off it’s legs, only so they could usher in its replacement-some form of socialist government.
      10) Romney would not bend over backwards to please and appease Muslims both at home and abroad.
      11) Romney is far superior at running a business, while Obama was a “community organizer” (aka street hustler). Romney would be better for the economy in many ways.
      12) Romney would not be anti-drilling for our own oil, so we wouldn’t have to buy from terrorists who want to kill us.
      13) Romney would be much more likely to secure our borders.
      14) Romney would not advance the Gay agenda, the abortion agenda, and the Atheist agenda that has become so prevalent with liberals.
      15) Romney would not have the main stream liberal media covering up, or sugar-coating his every move-regardless of how dangerous it might be for the country. Quite the contrary we’d know once again, if Romney sneezed crooked.

      17) The Romney administration would not act as protectionists for the radical racist New Black Panther Party. The New Black Panthers had endorsed Obama, and at one time their seal was on the White House site.
      18) The Romney administration would not give thousands of guns to Mexico, to create the illusion that tougher gun laws are needed. (Fast and Furious)
      19) Romney has no plans at decreasing our nuclear weapon stockpile.

      23) Romney would not appoint radical, anti-constitution judges to the Supreme Court.

      Hey man, I’m doing well. The problem is I just don’t trust Romney and can’t see him doing anything but put a band aid on a giant gash. What I mean by taking it is non-violent non-cooperation. No matter who wins, even if RP won I don’t need his permission to be free or anyone to make it ok/legal for me to do something I know is ok.

      @HAPPYSTRETCHEDTHIN

      What if the “partial payment” is still the total loss? Even if I agreed with 90% of what he did the many things I don’t like about him outweigh the rest. That’s great he wants to reduce taxes. Two things: 1, I don’t believe him and 2, taxation is theft so he should get rid of all taxation. Simply because he wants to lower the amount of money that is stolen from us doesn’t make him any less of a crook. If he was for ending the criminal organization known as the FED, then there’s a good chance he’d get my vote. This whole pay or go to jail thing we have is a giant part of the problem.
      It’s hard to engage in the political system when it’s as messed up as ours is. Just because I’m not in the voting/political “game” doesn’t mean I’m out of the real game or can’t do something.

      As I told 4TRUTH, no matter who wins I don’t need their permission to be free. I don’t need them to make laws, take away laws or tell me it’s ok. I would encourage everyone to start if they haven’t in non-violent, non-cooperation.

Then again, he is a politician and as much as I like him and love his consistency, great ideas, and constitutionally sound beliefs, he is part of the gang of killers, thieves, and liars called “government.” Not that I think he’s a bad guy or dishonest, just the problem is bigger than one man.

      Thanks for your compendium and clarity. FreedomFighter is right that much of it is speculation, but at least it doesn’t distort his promises, positions, and record. FreedomFighter can’t do that or he would be forced to confront his own illogical position. And in the end YOU’RE the one who argues correctly. I’m sure Winningside thinks he scored some rhetorical points, but his analogy to judgment day is flawed: there’s only ever been ONE righteous “man”. On judgment day, God will be asking more like “I put you in a land where you have responsibility for your leader, so why did you not use your power? I will take your power away and give it to the ones who used it wisely.” (sounds suspiciously like a parable I know…)
      @Black
      IF you’re right that the partial payment turns out to be the same total loss, you’d be right. A lot is at stake on that decision then. What I‘m saying is that you’re misreading BOTH Obama‘s AND Romney’s records if you can believe your assertion. Realist has compiled some CLEAR differences, so make your balance sheet, and pick the one MOST closely matching your philosophy who CAN change SOMETHING the way you want.
      Now on taxes, you DO understand that Congress DOES have SOME taxing power, right?
      Now on the FED, you DO understand that the alternative is allowing politicians to make monetary policy, which leads to hyperinflation, right? (Zaire, Zimbabwe, Weimar Republic, etc.) It needs audited, YES, but the idea is sound.

      Yes, I’ve looked at what Realist has put.

      I know. But that doesn’t mean taxation is right. Why’s that? Why can’t the alternative be a true free market where people can choose who to give their money to, based on a voluntary transaction? Instead of being forced to give money.

      Do you think a service or product should be offered on a violent basis? (Taxation). The fact is the FED IS a criminal organization, no different than the mob or any other criminal on the street. The only difference is an “agent of the government” wearing a suit emails you his demands that unless you pay (under threat, duress, and coercion) they will violently throw you in a cage. Sounds like the land of the free to me; where you are forced to pay for services, forced to serve on a jury and, if “needed” forced to join the military. As Frederic Bastiat would put it, that’s “legal plunder.”

      I have been in touch with a member of the RNC Rules committee over the past 4 days and have been able to confirm a few FACTS about the nomination process.

      1. For a candidate’s name to be placed into nomination at the RNC you DO need a plurality of delegates from 5 states.

      2. Binding and Non-binding distinctions DO NOT have an affect on nominating a candidates name. If “binding” is allowable by rule, (it is not) it would only pertain to a vote taken on the nomination, not the process of placing a name in nomination.

      3. The Ron Paul campaign HAS the majority of delegates in the following 5 states: Nevada, Maine, Minnesota, Louisana, Iowa. He MAY have the majority in Massachusetts and Colorado.

      I know he won the majority of delegates in Oregon! You all better start tracking the number of actual Paul delegates across the nation!

      Yo Black9897:

      Glad you are doing well … also glad to hear of the non-violent approach ( I was wondering a “little”). I know what you mean about the trust factor … feelin the same. I do KNOW this I have NO trust in the current occupier of the presidency. True freedom is in a mans heart given over to God (as you know). But I’d like that freedom to extend out the front door of my house also. I really don’t want to end up in Babylon pulling weeds for the king.

      @Black,
      I hate the character limit on these posts sometimes. I get the sense you could connect your arguments much better without that limitation (me too!).
      Am I right that you find the IDEA of giving up a little money to support the essential functions of govt to be right and good, but that the govt has taken it too far by spending where it shouldn’t (eg. ed. dept) and taxing more than it should (eg. the unratified income tax amendment)?
      Am I right that you think a fiat currency off the gold standard converts the currency into a promissory debt rather than a positive valuation?
      You’re right about all that. But what IS the role of govt in the economy? Is it not to ensure fair standards and prosecute cheating? How is it NOT the role of govt to ensure a currency we can all use? The problem is that it‘s ALSO the govt’s role to SPEND money (on constitutional things only, of course), so what if it gets into debt? Can’t it just print more money and pay itself off? That would devalue the currency.
      So what’s the solution, then? Do away with the Fed and you leave the printing presses in the hands of the same people who run up the debt, no?
      I know, and you’re right: that’s what we already have. But inflation is MUCH more stable BECAUSE of the Fed than it was in those other countries I mentioned.
      How else can it be done?
      That’s a serious question!
      What’s the Paullower solution?
      p.s. Bastiat wrote against monopolies and socialism, not conservatism.

      I think Ron Paul’s biggest problem is his supporters. I agree with a lot of what Ron Paul has to say but when I have gone on Ron Paul sites to try and discuss where I disagree instead of a reasonable discussion I was subject to personal attacks a charges of treason. If you are not willing to explain your position to people who disagree with you in part how do you expect to win an election?

      I have no problem with giving money for services. It’s not the “what” that I have a problem with; it’s the “how.” I would certainly agree printing more money only causes the already worthless paper to become even more worthless.

      Paullower ? lol. Good one.

      Well, I don’t know if you’d call it a Paullower solution, but it’s one where people have the freedom to choose what to do with their money.

      As I’ve said, right now it’s pay or go to jail, and I think most honest people don’t think that a service or product should be offered on a violent basis. So instead of being forced to pay for something we simply need a TRUE free market where a group of people can offer their services on a voluntary basis. This is done every day with other things. Does subway or Wal-Mart make you pay for their food and products? Of course not. Why should protection (military, police, etc) be any different?

      Due to pay or go to jail we can be treated in any way. Bad or good, right or wrong. Why? Because no matter what they still get our money, so it doesn’t matter how they treat us. That’s why you see so much corruption, police brutality/violating rights, laws that should never be approved/enforced, etc. I don’t ask myself why there is corruption, I ask myself why not? There is no way I can withdraw my support (well, besides leaving of course) because it’s all coerced. With a private company such as Target If they are corrupt with bad products, bad service, etc and I get treated bad or don’t like what I’m getting I can simply leave and never give them another dime as long as I live, so they either change or go out of business.

      @Black,
      Thanks for the straight exchange!
      I’m totally with you as far as coercion in a free market is concerned. When people are left free to choose for themselves what products and services to buy, they generally make the best choice for themselves, and both buyer and seller get something valuable from the exchange, prices stay low, but wealth gets created because people are acting on their own resources. As soon as govt force enters the equation, markets get distorted on both ends and the result is both loss of freedom and loss of wealth-buyers have less means to make their own choices, and sellers get less value for trading, therefore less incentive to trade.
      I’m just wondering if you REALLY think things like a national military and police (from local to national) don’t form part of the BASE CONDITIONS for freedom, and free markets. If there’s no institution to put evil-doers in fear of punishment, what will prevent rampant cheating?
      If you don’t have security of life, how can you pursue your happiness?
      If the govt doesn’t guarantee the right to property, how can we have liberty?
      These things ARE what the constitution DOES ask the govt to do. That IS the correct limit on govt. And govt SHOULD have just enough coercive power to compel people to support those functions with money so we all pay our fair share of it.
      The rest is an argument about what “fair share” means, no?

      the vote was corrupted through the primary, and the fact that the Romney camp violated federal law in Massachusetts by forcing Paul delegates to sign a form under penalty of perjury to vote for Romney.
      42 USC 1971 (b) Intimidation, threats, or coercion
      No person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, shall intimidate, threaten, coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, or of causing such other person to vote for, or not to vote for, any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, presidential elector, Member of the Senate, or Member of the House of Representatives, Delegates or Commissioners from the Territories or possessions, at any general, special, or primary election held solely or in part for the purpose of selecting or electing any such candidate
      As I understand..in the Russian Revolution.. when Russia tried to establish a democracy..this is what the Marxist/ Communist Lennin did to the delegates in the Democratic Parliament… With Mitt’s supporting of the taking of our Constitutional rights..through support of NDAA, SOPA , the Patriot Act.and gun control. and his being run by the Communist Federal Reserve..

      That’s good to hear. Exactly, well put!

      Oh, I do believe in a strong national defense and a justice system and a way to keep people accountable. Yes, that’s what it’s supposed to do, and if that’s all it did I wouldn’t have a problem. However, when people are forced to pay it causes less accountability and instead of doing business with a handshake it’s done with a gun, which I think is morally wrong. If a service is so good (which I think military and protection are good things) then why make people pay? I think 99% of people would voluntary pay for protection. I know I would! There’s an obvious demand for protection in the market, and that demand can and should be met with voluntary supply.

      You hit a raw nerve with the neocons. They are going to tell you how important it is to vote for the national socialist versus the international socialist. They put themselves in this predicament by ending up with the guy who “has progressive views” (his own words) and was the architect of the individual mandate (Oh, it’s OK at the state level they will tell themselves). I guess trillions down the rat hole and precious lives lost on Iraq, or no-child left-behind, or prescription drug benefit, or how about the TSA groping you at the airport, or many of the other wonderful statist policies and programs that came out of eight years of “compassionate” George Bush “conservativism” wasn’t enough? Half-assed conservativism that doesn’t solve the problem and at the end of the term the idiot leftists point to the charade and say “see, liberty/conservativism doesn’t work?” you have only yourselves to thank.

      A vote for Romney is a vote for Obama since they are the same essential thing with different rhetoric glazed on top to give you the false impression of choice in the puppet pageant. Now, go and do what you have done best for the past several decades and vote for the guy the oxycontin drug addict says to vote for.

      You seriously don’t have the slightest clue what the issue is, do you?

      We do want to save this country, and that is the reason we won’t vote for Romney.

      See… spoon-fed partisans like you, are so deeply programmed, that you can only think in terms of Democrat/Republican. You keep deluding yourselves that Democrat=Liberal, and Republican=Conservative.

      This is all you can see, exactly what we are fighting against, want you to see.

      But… we are Libertarians. We’re not bogged down with that programming, and think and reason for ourselves.

      It isn’t about Dems/Reps for us… it is about Progressives vs Libertarians. We don’t operate on the same broken and totally inadequate left-right scale you do. Our left-right scale is, Progs on the left, Libs on the right. On the left of our axis, is authoritarianism/totalitarianism.

      This is our fight.

      Those of us who understand what being a Libertarian is, and understand what a Progressive is, see both Obama, and Romney, for what they really are.

      Progressives.

      They both have admitted they are, as have many of the other upper-echelon players in the Dems and Reps wings of the Progressive movement.

      It isn’t the least bit about Dems/Reps for us.

      It is about the Progs.

      No way in hell, will we be voting for a Progressive. To us, they are the biggest threat to the nation.

      Now do the math. Independents and his core supporters will vote for him, but not Romney. Had he gotten the nomination, it would be a shoe in because people like you would vote for “Anyone But Obama”. Romney will not get our vote. So if the GOP really wanted to win, they wouldn’t have marginalized Ron Paul. Or perhaps they underestimated our loyalty to him and to freedom. They may have thought we would fall in line with Romney and the GOP. Nope, we sure won’t. If Obama wins, don’t blame us. Blame yourselves and the GOP for marginalizing his campaign and his supporters. We are no longer the type to vote for the lesser of two evils and our numbers are GROWING.

      I’d rather have the devil I know, then the devil I don’t know, in office. I’d rather Obama be in office when our dollar collapses and the economy goes down the toilet then to have Romney in office when it happens. I know it will happen with either of them in office. I hope I’m wrong but I doubt I will be. The only way I’ll be wrong and not be happy that I was is if they manage to band aid the issue for at least one more election cycle. How many times can be band aid our problems?

      I’d rather Obama be in control when the economy goes the way of Greece. After so many years after Bush, you can only blame him for so much. Then socialism and over spending government will be at fault. Under Romney, capitalism and free markets will be blamed for the collapse.

He is for more federal regulations on certain things, he is for auditing the FED but, he is for trying to reform the FED, not abolish it. He is also federal regulations for gay marriage, and I just do not see that as a viable course. All these matters are for the state and the citizens who live in that state to decide. How we moved away from the Constitution is by federal regulations, which in turn allowed states to make laws against their citizens voices. All of this has to stop and it must be made clear that the Constitution is the law of the land, and any law, be it federal or state, that violates the rule of law, is an unjust law and must be removed. We need candidates that will guide us back to the total rule of law and end the tyranny. Dr. Paul is the only one that is willing to fight for this. NOONE but PAUL 2012.

      West Coast, my only concern with a write in vote is whether it will even be counted. I really want to be part of a great election experiment to see whether or not ANYONE’s vote actually gets counted. That is why I believe getting behind ONE candidate who is on everyone’s ballot — that is not one of the two false choices — just might be the show of force that will rock this country back to its core . . . the Constitution. I am keeping my mind open and will be watching to see what transpires next month in Tampa.

    I am not a Ron Paul supporter. His nonsupport for Roe and his ideas that what is not good on a federal level is fine at a state level makes me conclude that he is not the libertarian he claims to be. That said, he is at least a different voice in the game, something that we desperately need. He’s been sidelined by the pundits and the media, all of whom are slaves to the two party system. Governing this country is not a game with only two teams, but it is a sad and disgusting fact that that is the way the majority of people in this country see it. There are other parties in this country including the Libertarians and the Greens, but you will never hear anything about them from the media, beccause that would actually get people to think beyond D and R, something that people in power can never allow. We need 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th parties to break up the system. Winner take all for one party is just another way to ensure single party domination. If you want change in this country, don’t play the two party game.

      Spot on. The two parties have rigged the system to prevent any 3rd party from ever gaining traction. The ‘winner take all’ system where a candidate can win a state with <50% of the vote is a complete sham. In most democratic countries, they do not have winner take all….They have run-offs and coalition governments. The two parties have perverted the system to their advantage

      So you really think creating complete choas with multiple parties will bring Washington under control?

      Without a clear majority vote, you have no mandate for change, and a parliamentary system is a joke. We are a representative republic, not a pure democracy, folks who advocate such are delusional that they can do anything except make sure nothing ever gets done.

      Most folks would rather start another revolution than be ruled by the idiot greens or Paulites.. that is why you never win elections.

      More bitter sour grapes from the sub minor parties nobody listens too. You can’t win a clear majority, or anything remotely close, so you want to ruin the system and pray it crashes.

You must be happy in your little world, nothing to challenge you, nothing to think about, the party will do that for you. Freedom is risky, nothing guaranteeed and the reason people don’t like it is that they are scared. Libertarians are willing to take their chances, in life and with society, without worrying about what others will think.

      But sure, vote for the single party Dem/Rep. They will protect you from the evils of the world, whether it be the nasty corporate raiders or the evil muslims.

If Obama is cut off at the knees by congress and the senate, he’ll be a lame duck, but putting Romney in guarantees at least 8 more years of liberalism. If people like me fold, nothing in the future will change.
      When Obama was elected, we all got fired up and the tea party started. Look at what that got us – Romney. Apparently, America isn’t done drinking.

Shoo Ron Paul and take Lew Rockwell and Alex Jones with you…

      As far as the Convention goes… why does Paul deserve to be given any further recognition by speaking at the GOP Convention? Romney is there to accept the nomination and give us HIS vision and his plan on beating Obama? As far as I’m concerned, Paul has done more for Obama and should go hang out at the Democrat Party Convention in place of all the Dems that won’t be attending. Heck, maybe Obama would have a beer summit with the old angry fart and strategize Paul’s continued vote splitting Dem support.

      Paul hates Republicans and the GOP anyways… so why give him a continued platform to just drift off into the atmosphere with more nonsense and hate mongering?

      Paul has had his shot, he had a campaign, he had a stage and he lost it… and lost most Conservative Americans in the process… again.

      Screw Ron Paul… again. This beotch-slap of Paul should take the oxygen out of his space helmit and would be a perfect ending to his useless political career…

I used to be where you are TIME..but I try to learn..I figure if you take everything that you think you know for granted that it is true..and don’t investigate it for ourselve..then how can we get beyond any untruths that we have been taught..say like the Muslims, the Catholics or the Protestants or any reiligion for that matter. We need to seek the counsel of God almighty..to learn the truth..and be open to it..God knows all and there is a reason for everything that has happened in our history..although thanks to a Zionist/Communnist owned media..we have been shielded from knowing the truth..
      The truth is Time is that the Federal Reserve is our President..the man who bears the title of President is just the Spokesperson.. Amschel Rothchild..”give me control of a nation’s money..and I care not who is the President..

      @time, yes, you are counting on Obama’s minion’s not getting off the couch. If you threatened to take social security away from seniors, do you think they would get off the couch? With healthcare, the threat of losing a freebee will get the minion’s up, it may be the most work they do all year, but they’ll get up.
      You are quick to discount my vote, yet all of you establishment types are out here telling us a vote for Paul is a vote for Obama.
      I will repeat myself. My vote is all I have for influencing this election. Many men have died to give that right to me and I will honor them by milking my one vote for all its worth. Romney doesn’t deserve my vote, he has to earn it. It’s nice (for guys like Romney) that you give yours away so easily.

      Time_2 is one of the biggest sheeple on this site guys. His only purpose was to bash Ron Paul every chance he got. He, in my opinion, is what is wrong with America today. He can bash me all he wants, he can bash an honorable man and praise an un-honorable man all he wants. We Paul supporters must stick together, write in Pauls name whether it is allowed or not and show these idiots how powerful we really are. Maybe after another four, they will listen to us a little bit more in 2016. Stay the course, vote for the only candidate that is for Constitutional principles and we will win in the long run. We will take over the GOP and kick people like Time_2 out.

      Hey Barber,
      Newsflash–these anti-romney obamatons and in the game for one main reason–They hate Romney being a mormon. Plain and simple. That really is the only reasonable explaination. They have moved the debate from ‘differences in politics’ to ‘obama is the lesser of two evils.’ Give me a break. There was a recent article on Romney and religion and these guys posted the most vile and disgusting comments that revealed them for what they are-religious bigots. Once you jump that shark there is no turing back or reasoning with them.

      I feel most folks that are Ron Paul fans do not have that type of bias and will be more than glad to get rid of obama by voting Romney. The hard core bigots, of course, will not. They will vote for the devil himself before Romney. I guess they kind of are.

There are three reglarlar posters who support RP that believe Zionism is an issue, I’m not sure they consider Zionism and Judiasm the same, and one RP supporter that has spoken out about Mormons being a cult. Whereas the last poll conducted by the Blaze; 85% of the folks on here would not support a nonbeliever as president. And for the record, I’ve openly disagreed with both, although I’ve been unable to disprove their claims. So take your Al Sharpton tactics and shove it.

    Why Paul supporters believe they deserve to have such a prominent voice, when they were such a tiny section of the electorate, is beyond me. Nationwide, they were lucky to average 15% of the primary voice. In Nebraska they only received 10% of the primary vote, compared to Romney’s 70% and Santorum’s 14%. IF Paul’s supporters had been successful in hijacking the NEGOP convention, it would have been a travesty, where the minority trampled on the rights of the majority.

    Saying that, I do believe that the GOP convention should be a place for ALL conservative voices to be heard. Not just Romney’s, and not just Paul’s. But it should not be based on who can gather a few handfuls of people that will shout the loudest.

      You’re out of your mind if you compare the GOP to the Soviet system… Just because you delusional Paul lost in a classic curb stomping, doesn’t make your hateful hyperbole real. He lost because he is A. a colossally bad candidate, and he has this insane need to screech “warmonger” at those who disagree with him.. which is just about everyone.

      When you loose as badly as you did, with a miniscule amount of supporters.. maybe you should rethink just who the deluded one is here. People vote two party, because the democrats have the left wing vote locked up,.. and the sane have gravitated to the GOP.. and really you decry the two party system, only after your boy resoundingly lost in it.

      That’s bitter sour grapes from the lunatic fringe, nothing more.. if there were a rational sane third party, it would win.. when you find one let us know.. the libertarians aren’t sane, or the greens, the conservative party hasn’t had time to build traction yet, but we will see about them.. but I doubt you’d vote for them.. too many Joos for a Paul voter.

    1. Eliminate the income tax. Pitting the individual against the Feds where money is concerned is an extreme example of social injustice.
    2. Protect both southern & northern borders
    3. Audit the fed then arrest it’s owners and return to the gold std.
    4. Bust up every company & bank that is too big to fail, monopolies are already illegal.
    5. Eliminate department of education,TSA, BATFE, IRS on income tax activities.

      I’m not crazy about Romney, but between our two choices, Romney offers a better chance of fulfilling your demands than Obama. With a Conservative/Libertarian majority in the House and Senate, and a non-Marxist administration, I have to believe our country still stands a chance to recover.

      Vote Romney into the White House and the TEA Party will hold his feet to the fire. If Romney’s NOT elected – we’re doomed. Obama will veto everything that crosses his desk, continue to abuse his power, pal around with our enemies, radicalize the court systems, and strengthen the power of all the departments you/we want dismantled.

      Now a word of thanks to Ron Paul and all of his supporters. Thank you for waking up America and standing firm on your convictions! You have stopped many of us in our tracks and forced us think. We may not agree on everything, but we agree on one thing — our country is in trouble. I hope we can set aside our differences long enough to get Obama out of office. You may recall, during one of the early debates, Ron Paul stated that anyone on the stage would make a better President than Obama. ……. RON PAUL WAS CORRECT – and I agree with him 100%.

    Lying, deceiving and manipulation are natural talents for Sociopaths. Given their glibness and the facility with which they lie, it is not surprising that Sociopaths successfully cheat, bilk, defraud, con and manipulate people and have not the slightest compunction about doing so. They are often forthright in describing themselves as con men, hustlers or fraud artists. Their statements often reveal their belief that the world is made up of “givers and takers,” predators and prey, and that it would be very foolish not to exploit the weaknesses of others.

    Some of their operations are elaborate and well thought out, whereas others are quite simple: stringing along several women at the same time, or convincing family members and friends that money is needed “to bail me out of a jam.” Whatever the scheme, it is carried off in a cool, self-assured, brazen manner.

    Makes you wonder why this wasn’t a big story all along. We had to hear about it after it’s over.

    Why the hell do you guys want Romney. He will not restore anything, he will just fix the mistakes Barrack made and we will go back to 2007.

    What you people failed to realize is that Ron Paul is our best chance to get the people back on track. Good job confusing them into thinking Ron Paul is an enemy of our best interests. Not one of the big Republicans had the balls to step up to the people who really hold the power in the republican party and support Ron Paul.

    Limbaugh and Beck should of supported Paul. He agree’s with them on more things than the other 2. They just don’t like how he views Iran. Which is basically them saying that the people who have control over me told me to support Romney.

    All of them said they wouldn’t support anyone until it was clear who the republican presidential nominee would be. They know the popular vote doesn’t mean much, and that its the delegates who count. So why did they support Romney after all the other candidates stepped out and it was Romney and Paul? Romney is Obama without the Health Care law.

    ALSO Ron Paul has the best shot at convincing Obama supporters that they were lied to. Example he convinced me and many of my friends(Ex-obama supporter in 08). So republicans you really messed up this time, you had the key to our nations future and you decided to destroy his reputation instead.

But, I have heard in some news casts in the recent past as well as read on other sites, that some of his supporters are asking him to run as an independent. Just because I do not support this man, does not mean that I am ignorant of his theories and policies. I am aware and simply do not see things his way. Like I’ve said here before a number of times, had he become the candidate I would vote for him. Somewhat reluctantly, but I have had to do that before with some previous Republican candidates. If that is not good enough for you to give you my opinion and you want to continue to call me ignorant because I don’t see things your way, then so be it.

      With the failure of the Ron Paul campaign to make a difference in the republican platform (lets assume the convention is a non-event), it appears incrimentalism is not going to work. The only way to have a successful revolution (political or ideological) is to overwhelm the system in order to bring about change. The socialists have used it to their advantage but for some reason, the constitutional wing of this country cannot get it done.

      @PROGRESSIVESLAYER ….

      Early in the race, I was a Ron Paul supporter, and believed him to be our George Washington. But the more I watched him in debates, the less I liked him. He tends to speak only to his base and not to all Americans. He failed to connect with enough people to vote for him in the primaries, so he lost …. as did my choice, Santorum.

      What done is done. Belittling people who voted for Romney instead of our choice is beating a dead horse. Santorum would have a better chance at the convention than Paul, but it’s not going to happen. Romney won the race and is the candidate running against Obama … and Romney is NOT the same as Obama (even Ron Paul agrees.)

      America is a republic, not a dictatorship, and our president has limited powers. Therefore the time has come to direct our energy to supporting conservatives and libertarians for Congress and offices throughout the country. Ron Paul‘s vision doesn’t have to die in 2012 … find candidates with his vision and get them elected. With a strong Constitutionally Conservative Congress we can hold Romney’s feet to the fire.

I get the feeling you’re a hippie hanging out with the Ron Paul crowd because it feels like a “cause” and you like to be part of a “revolution” and you want to be able to get high without any legal penalties. Your past statements that OWS is pretty much the same as the Tea Party shows that you have a very poor concept of what the Tea Party is about and have a poor concept of what Liberty is actually all about (it isn’t anarchy buddy) and I wonder if you have ever really even read the Constitution or know anything about the founders. This is what makes it hard for a lot of people to support Ron Paul, because it means they are standing next to people like you. I support the Constitution but Ron Paul is not the way. Neither is any one candidate. This country was established by a whole congress of good men, it can only be saved by such a plurality. Ron Paul’s biggest problem is that not only is he just one man, he‘s just one man that nobody likes or works with and that wouldn’t change no matter what his elected office was.
