Ron Paul on Winning the Primary: ‘The Chances Are Slim’

Congressman Ron Paul appeared on “Face the Nation” with Bob Schieffer this morning, addressing a question that has followed his campaign for some time: is he in the race to win the presidency, or just to make a point?  In response to Schieffer’s question, Ron Paul reiterated that he does not believe it is an “either/or” issue, but rather, “if you’re in a race to make a point, or to promote a cause, the best way to do that is to win…[but] do I believe the chances are slim?  Yes, I do…”

Congressman Paul also addressed the allegation that he is in “cahoots” with Mitt Romney, perhaps in exchange for a VP pick for his son, Senator Rand Paul.  In the words of Rush Limbaugh, “I’m just beginning to see huge advantages to Romney if Ron Paul stays in.  I can see Romney offering a plum to Ron Paul’s son…If you’ve noticed, Ron Paul never rips Romney…In fact, Ron Paul joins the chorus of those defending Romney sometimes.”  When asked if there was any veracity to the claim, Paul went on the offensive against Rick Santorum, saying he is “just trying to talk about something,“ is ”concocting conspiracies,” and that neither he nor his son would agree to it.

    His chances are not slim…they are non-existent. If he truly does care about this country he needs to do the noble thing and step out and support the fight against Obama.

      LOOK4D and RECON..

      Both of your statements simply state the truth and reality of the ‘Ron Paul’ foundation that he has been running for 30 years. I really don’t know how logical people can support him to the extent they have. It’s one of those anomolies that has not yet been explained. And people who support this tenured congressman refuse to vote GOP unless their ‘guy’ is on the ticket. These people either do not understand the gravity of our country’s situation or they are not conservatives at all.

      As for “the fight against Obama” comment. I’m totally against Obama, but let me explain something.

      The TEA party started when Bush was in Office. It has never been about Bush or Obama. It has been about restoring our Constitutional Republic and federal Union. In 2008, the Democrats proclaimed that our national problems were Bush’s fault, and, that we needed to elect anyone but Bush. Now, in 2012, the Republicans are blaming Obama for about everything, and saying, anyone but Obama. I’m starting to understand the folks that say that the two Party system is two sides of the same coin leading to destruction, established only to give We the People the impression of choice. Don’t forget, in 2010, it was ALSO TEA party candidates against incmbent Republicans.

      For your information, Romney was never a TEA party candidate.

      Incorrect.

      Ron Paul understands far better than anyone that imminent bankruptcy is on the USA’s horizon.

      We have been bankrupt since August 15, 1971 and have largely been financing our high standard of living since then through an illusion created by the Federal Reserve.

      The house of cards is extraordinarily close to crashing down soon and only Ron Paul wants to do something about it NOW. Romney, Santorum, and Gingrich all believe that there’s still a lot more money left in D.C. to spend….however, they are very mistaken indeed.

      “These people either do not understand the gravity of our country’s situation or they are not conservatives at all.”

      That’s the thing – most Ron Paul people have spent far more time researching the issues than the casual Republican voter, and many have showed up in mass to become delegates because of what they have learned. Who besides Ron Paul seriously wants to end the Fed (or even why that is a good thing)? Who besides Ron Paul wants to hold Congress’s feet to the fire over their sworn oath to uphold the constitution? Who besides Ron Paul really wants to cut up the national credit card, and has a plan to pay off the debt?

      You see – we want to restore the country – not divide it. We love Americans, just not what our Republic has become under this Govt. We must eliminate all the laws and agencies that in the name security rob our liberty. If not – what is America? Send the statue back to France – it doesn’t mean anything anymore.

      Let’s see, one commenter said, he’s not for term limits, then there’s that record that he was the first one to propose such legislation. Now, there‘s another comment that suggests Paul’s a hypocrite, but Paul has said he won’t run for Congress after this term. So, is this just grasping at straws? Maybe.

      DivineProvidence1776′s logic is the same as that which discredits Thomas Jeffersons philosophies on freedom and liberty because of the fact that he owned slaves. It is broken down to the simplest factors without taking into account the true feelings of the person and the arguments and efforts they made to end the very wrong that they were involved in. In Jeffersons case, slavery existed in Virginia since before his birth and he was born into a situation of slave ownership. However he knew that slavery was evil and used his position in government to constantly speak against the institution of slavery despite the fact that, at the time, his was an un-winnable battle. Ron Paul, likewise, uses his position in government to fight against the wrongs that government commit, even though he is often the lone voice in the wilderness. It is very simple to criticize these two champions of liberty… that is until you study their characters and morals and you then understand that in both instances they were doing what they could for the benefit of all. Jefferson and Paul are very much alike, and they are both much deeper that what you see on the surface.

      “I strongly support Ron Paul, we very badly need to have more Representatives in the House who understand in a principled way the importance of property rights and religious freedom.” Milton Friedman

      “Ron Paul is one of the outstanding leaders fighting for a stronger national defense. As a former Air Force officer, he knows well the needs of our armed forces, and he always puts them first. We need to keep him fighting for our country.” Ronald Reagan

      “Ron Paul is one of the most effective spokesmen for limited government, for the Constitution. We are delighted that he has spoken about us as the only no-compromise gun lobby group in Washington.” Larry Pratt, Executive Director of Gun Owners of America

      “Rep. Ron Paul of Texas has a perfect voting record on Second Amendment issues. He has sponsored legislation to repeal most gun laws dating back to 1968 — as well as, introduced legislation to get the U.S. out of the anti-gun United Nations. Ron Paul has an A+ rating with Gun Owners of America.” gunowners.org/ronpaul-gunrecord.htm

      “No member of Congress pays more attention to Second Amendment issues than Dr. Ron Paul.” – Dudley Brown, Executive Director, National Association for Gun Rights

I’d still prefer term limits because if it means losing a good member of Congress, well I’ll take my chances on that one. As long as the Congressman or Senator is fulfilling their oath of office and upholding the Constitution with their votes, I’m not going to worry about a guy like Ron Paul staying in office for 30 years. He obviously has not been corrupted by the system, unlike Santorum and Gingrich.

      @ENDtheFED2012 Here’s some food for thought:

      “I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them. It is not to inaugurate new programs, but to cancel old ones that do violence to the Constitution, or that have failed their purpose, or that impose on the people an unwarranted financial burden. I will not attempt to discover whether legislation is “needed” before I have first determined whether it is constitutionally permissible. And if I should later be attacked for neglecting my constituents’ “interests,” I shall reply that I was informed that their main interest is liberty and that in that cause I am doing the very best I can.” Goldwater

      “I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!” Goldwater

      “I told Johnson and old colleagues on Capitol Hill that we had two clear choices. Either win the [Vietnam] war in a relatively short time, say within a year, or pull out all our troops and come home.” Goldwater

      “Most Americans have no real understanding of the operations of the international moneylenders… the accounts of the Federal Reserve have never been audited. It operates outside the control of Congress and… manipulates the credit of the United States ”

      “Those who seek absolute power, even though they seek it to do what they regard as good, are simply demanding the right to enforce their own version of heaven on earth. And let me remind you, they are the very ones who always create the most hellish tyrannies. Absolute power does corrupt, and those who seek it must be suspect and must be opposed. Their mistaken course stems from false notions of equality, ladies and gentlemen. Equality, rightly understood, as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences. Wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism.” Goldwater

      “I’m the most underdog underdog there is.” Goldwater

      “It is a fact that Lyndon Johnson and his curious crew seem to believe that progress in this country is best served simply and directly through the ever-expanding gift power of the everlastingly growing Federal Government. One thing we all know, and I assure you I do: that’s a much easier way to get votes than my way. It always has been. It’s political Daddyism, and it’s as old as demagogues and despotism.” Goldwater

      I think “Mr. Conservative” would side with the Small Government candidate that stands for the Constitution, limited Government, private property, free markets, strong national defense, gun rights, sound money, personal responsiblity, and unalianable rights.

      Why would Ron Paul or anyone else observe a law that was not yet passed, especially an election law? That would be unilateral disarmament. I try to imagine politicians who have been in office a long time quitting because Ron Paul retired and I just can not allow enough latitude to see how that could possibly happen. Is it Ron Paul’s fault that Ted Kennedy did not quit early? How about Robert Byrd? When was the last time a politician left because he was shamed by the honorable actions of another politician? I know people think Ron Paul is crazy but, they surely can’t think he is that crazy.

      I want a politician that quits voting for what polling says and starts voting with conviction. Not someone who says one thing and does another. I dont want a guy that was for something before he was against it. I am tired of politicians tell me “politics is a team sport”.

      Ron Paul is only losing because talking heads havent backed him. If Rush, Glenn, Sean, and Bill had practiced what they preached they would be in Ron Paul’s corner and this election would be over with the assault on Obama beginning. Too many people let them do the thinking for them, hence Mcain.

      I will be voting for Ron Paul in this primary and in November. I will not vote for another Mcain.

      yea, there are still the newsletters (a.k.a the greatest effort the media has put forth to smear a candidate). However at this point, he is fully vetted because this issue has been overplayed by the media. so the skeletons have already come out – know what i mean?

      I find it hilarious that they dug up those newsletters (from the 80s?)…which is about the same time obama was acting as a constitutional scholar at harvard law. Where are obama’s newsletters???

      Study the presidency of Calvin Coolidge. He is the last president who actually had the federal government shrink during his administration. He did it the same way President Paul would. Veto any bill that was unconstitutional, or grew the federal government. Just say no. If it causes gridlock, GOOD. The best thing the government can do right now is just STOP IT! KNOCK IT OFF! LEAVE US ALONE! QUIT DOING A THOUSAND THINGS YOU’RE NOT AUTHORIZED TO DO!

      I think Obama will run this country into the ground in his second term but we will not take the blame for it. The blame will be on the people who voted in a self proclaimed progressive that has been pro choice, pro gun laws, pro big government, pro bailouts, pro big banks, pro war, anti freedoms.

      I have food, guns, water, bullets, and supplies ready for it because I have no confidence in the American people to do the right thing.

If you had principles you would understand that you can’t make that kind of compromise, and if you had half a brain you would understand that you can’t use shame on people who know that they are on the right side. I can promise you that in the 2012 election, I will vote for no-one except Ron Paul and if Obama gets elected….. I’ll blame you.

Go ahead and vote with the unthinking sheep herd and the rest of us will know whose fault Obamas re-election really is.

      By the way for the majority of Blaze posters who happen to be reading this thread, I feel obliged to explain that I’m normally far more civil and less personal than I have been with Willie tonight. It’s just that Willies nonsensical, backwards logic and tiresome attacks on Ron Paul and his supporters need to be addressed as the garbage that they are. He posts this kind of arrogant nonsense on every story that mentions Ron Paul.

      Funny thing about Willie and his thinking is he blames all of this on Obama. “Obama is what is wrong with America”.

      That is absurd. Its progressives from both parties that have put us in this mess. We are 16 trillion in debt, we have had endless wars, and we are losing freedoms daily it seems. But hey, blame it all on Obama and look stupid.

      Yes its obama’s fault gas prices are so high… He hasn’t bombed iran and made them trade oil in the dollar again. Haha, Bomb everyone into submission.

      When did America become the sole savior of the world? Sorry folks, America can’t right every wrong in the world. Stuck our hands into a hornets nest and expected not to be stung or bitten.

      It’s like the old saying when you and your family are fighting, A annoying neighbor walks in and joins the fight, The family unites against the annoying neighbor.

      Also on the voting note, Can you really go home after voting mittens and be happy? He will just compromise on everything, It’s not like hes going to veto anything. What happens after two years? When the gop does NOTHING and democrats regain control of the house and senate? God forbid they don’t get re-elected.

      Haven’t you guys heard? It‘s not Bush’s fault anymore, it‘s Obama’s fault now. Obams is to blame for everything now. Dejavu? Those who think that getting rid of Obama will solve all our national problems, don’t understand why the TEA party started in the first place, nor do they understand how we got into this mess. Obama wasn’t the start of all our national problems, he has only helped to publicly expose our national problems by his own failures.

      Here’s just one example. Remember Waco? Remember how the ATF raided the place? Biden and Holder were both involved with the investigation conducted in Congress after that event. After the Waco incident, Bill Clinton helped pass the Assault Weapons Ban. Guess who’s working in the federal Government now, under Obama’s administration? Biden, Holder, and Hilary Clinton. Biden has labeled TEA party folks “domestic terrorists”. Clinton is on a UN crusade to disarm the US by an international treaty. Holder is involved in an ATF scandal to blame Americans for illegal arms trafficking to Mexico. ETC. ETC. ETC. These are only THREE FOLKS, but there are many more. The hole runs deep and wide. The destruction of our nation has been going on for decades. What Obama has done in these last four years is nothing compared to our past. Obama was that one mistake the global elitist regret now. They did not intend to expose their agenda so publicly. At least the American people are waking up now.

      HALF of RonPaul‘s ’supporters‘ are ’legalize weed’ numbnuts who were going to vote Democrat anyway; of the remainder, half are too young to vote/ or are too bat-crap crazy to find the polling place with a map, GPS, and a seeing eye dog…then you have to eliminate the ‘Stormfronters’, many of whom have lost their voting rights due to felonies…that leaves about, what- 50 guys?

      I think Glenn must have had a brain hemmorage since this was made. He listened to Pat Gray and Stu also. The two fake Conservatives that help guide Glenn. They talk a good gane at times, then they attack the only one wanting to follow the Founders…sad

      Glenn has obviously sold out. Shame, I used to enjoy his show but there is no way someone that studies the founders as much as he does could possibly support anyone other than paul, so the only conclusion is “sell out”

      In 2008 AFTER Mccain was nominated, i remember glenn being frustrated with the guy we chose to run against obama. He said he would never sit by and watch another moderate become the candidate. More importantly, he said he was “more ron paul than sarah palin”. So what has changed? Seems to me like events over the last 4 years have done nothing but tip in ron paul’s favor

    yes, there are some unsavory people who like ron paul. ron paul brings people of all types together – that is why the left is scared of him. You should realize the media will always portray the worst of a group of people. Remember the tea party coverage? They made it seem like every tea party person was some white trash gun crazed person…The fact that the media has done this should tell you that it is a genuine movement

    Anyone who uses the excuse “I won’t vote for Ron Paul because of Alex Jones” or because of anyone else who has shown support for Paul, is just silly. Sure there are some Paul supporters who are controversial, but there are many, many more who are intelligent, civil, and honest conservatives, who want nothing more than to change the course of the country back towards the Constitutional Republic it was meant to be. Every candidate has supporters who are controversial, but it is never used against them. I believe the reason for that is that there is so little else that can be used against Dr. Paul. He is absolutely the only honest candidate (with a record to prove it).
    You’re not voting for the supporters, you’re voting for the candidate.

    Bryan,

    I challenge you to find a single instance of either Soybomb or myself saying anything anti-semitic or even slightly hateful towards Jews. You can‘t because it doesn’t exist. It’s pathetic when you have to lie and slander to try to prove your point. Your false anti-semite accusations are as bad as Al Sharpton’s prolific use of the race card towards everyone who disagrees with him.

    If you have a shred of decency you will apologize to both Soybomb and me for this patently false accusation.
