Ron Paul Winning Primary…on Twitter

With the dust settling from two states’ primaries — Iowa and New Hampshire — and candidates looking forward to South Carolina, presidential hopeful Ron Paul has yet to officially win one. Or does he? According to Tech Crunch, if Twitter had it’s own ongoing primary, Paul is in the lead.
You may remember the important role Twitter and other social media venues played in President Barack Obama’s campaign, and with that in mind, a company specializing in social media analytics has figured out which Republican GOP candidates have the most positive feedback in the Twittersphere.
Tech Crunch states that from Jan. 6 through the end of the New Hampshire primary, Paul was the most actively discussed candidate on Twitter but not by much. Paul held 26 percent of the conversation while Mitt Romney weighed in at 22 percent. Of those percentages, 14 percent comprised positive tweets about Paul and 9 percent were positive for Romney.

The day after the primary, Paul was only beating Romney by one percentage point and only had two percentage points more positive conversation.

One the flip side though, analytics reveal that Romney has more “likes” and is more actively discussed in a positive manner on Facebook, according to Tech Crunch.
A longer term review of tweets from May 2011 through Nov. 2011 by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism revealed that Paul was winning during that time as well. Politico reported that during that period, 55 percent of tweets about @RepRonPaul were positive. Romney on the other hand had a 40 percent negative reception, while 19 percent of tweets were considered positive.
According to Pew’s study, Obama beat all the GOP candidates in terms of twitter conversation volume with about 15 million mentions on Twitter, but 51 percent of these tweets were negative.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 10:49amRon Paul is agaist Welfare. “Military Welfare” for other countries.
Why are we spending trillions to defend Europe, Asia, and the Middle East? Don’t they have their own money? The only reason they don’t build their own defense is because they know that we will do it for them using our hard earned capital and blood. Its like people not getting a job or working because someone else will pay.
It really is very similar in that the Government takes money from the public for some designated reason to help “others”. To make it worse it’s the “others” are not even in our country.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 10:52am@Black9897 I’m convinced that Beck and the establishment media and politicians have been briefed by a conference call to stay away from Paul. The foreign policy is sound. What is not sound is that I heard yesterday, in the media, that perhaps the Iranian‘s assinated their own nuke scientist and it wasn’t us…… In other words, listening to Paul closely will reveal the truth of what he speaks. If you listen to Romney he tells you he is ready for war with Iran. You know a trillion dollar plus war when we could just rent a motorcycle and destroy their nuke program bit by bit. huh??

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 12:08pmRon Paul is an evangelical Christian:
Dr. Linzey later stated, “Among the six remaining GOP hopefuls, two are evangelical — Ron Paul and Rick Perry. But the tell-tale sign of being qualified for the presidency is not faith, but loyalty to the Constitution which defends the open expression of faith. Ron Paul seems to be the candidate most loyal to the Constitution according to the records. So when other evangelical leaders endorse GOP contenders of other faiths and traditions, some of whom have received funds from special interest groups, and are not as loyal to the Constitution as is Dr. Paul, one must necessarily ask, ‘What is their agenda?’ because they certainly are not endorsing the most qualified nor the most evangelical. If evangelicals wish to make faith an issue, then they should take a closer look at Dr. Paul’s statement on his web site, ‘Let me be very clear here: I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, and I endeavor every day to follow Him in all I do and in every position I advocate.’”

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 12:53pmWhy force them out? I would never advocate for them to leave nor would I agree to a petition for them to exit the race. They can stay in it as long as they want, spend as much funds as they wish. The true message of Ron Paul is out there and growing. The revolution is here. For once, I’m actually hopeful that there can be a bloodless revolution to take back our country from the people that have been running it into the ground.
I want true freedom and liberty back. I want to be able to live my life the way I want to. I believe the rest of America, whether black, white or yellow…. whether christian, jewish or atheist….. whether a liberal or conservative, should be able to live their lives without interference from others.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 1:51pmHere is how I view Ron Paul’s foreign policy, where am I wrong. Is this not almost exactly what George Washington outlined?
Report Post »A reasonable foreign policy demands good faith and justice towards all nations; A nation that harbors a hatred, or a habitual fondness toward another nation becomes a slave to animosity or its affection, either of which is sufficient to lose its conscientiousness and lead it into bloody contests. The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith, and then stop.
If our national security is threatened then let the congress of the United States determine the exact threat and a course of action, for the expressed purpose of protecting American independence. Our military should be used for the above mentioned protection only. We should strive to avoid standing armies and cease policing the entire world.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 2:42pmThe Communist Stream Media, and as much as it’s painful to say, Glenn Becks NEWS group are hell bent on destroying America by demonizing anything that can actually stand up to tyranny.
With the resources Beck has it’s no longer a mystery why he would first defend Bachmann, then others. Bachmann isn’t “as” bad as the complete communist gingrich, or the french whore socialist romney, but she lacked strength of convictions, didn’t study her subject matter, and stood no chance of beating Obama. Anyone that doesn‘t know that BECK knew that Bachmann couldn’t beat Obama is deceiving themselves.
As Beck says, “Don’t take my word for anything, do your OWN homework”. You don’t think he knows that the tendency of people is to be lazy and turn to an opinion former instead to get their unfounded opinion?
Watch the “moderation” of this forum. They rush to defend islime, and eliminate comments that swing back against the global warming/climategate, and secular humanist drivel. The censorship in this forum has gotten obviously pathetic.

There’s exactly 1 Constitutional Conservative in this race, and if ANYONE would make just the tiniest effort to research the subjects they would know who that is.

If you think that Obama is ignoring the laws, Constitution and Bill of Rights of the country right now, just wait and see what happens if he is reelected because of a split Republican vote. Without the threat of an election looming over his term in office, he’ll do whatever he darn well pleases. And Congress will do nothing to stop him, just like they’re doing now.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 2:39pmI WOULD RATHER HAVE FOUR MORE YEARS OF OBAMA THAN ROMNEY and I will explain why. Conservatism is obviously the smarter and more rational ideology right? Then why is the county half and half? Why not overwhelming support for conservatism? How did Obama get elected in the first place? I’ll tell you how. It’s by conservatism getting a bad name from people like Bush, McCain, Romney, Newt, and Santorum. When people think of conservatives they think of them and that is sad because they are far from it. Yes compared to Obama they are a little to the right but they just slow down the decay of American and its economy. Conservatives are supposed to be principled and follow the Constitution all the time not only when it suits them. A big government democrat is just as bad as a big government republican. When people think of conservatism I want them to think of Ron Paul. I want them to know exactly where someone stands on the issues, not think of a flip flopper like Romney and Newt. A conservative should have a record to prove it not just promises of their plans that are contrary to their record. Trust me people, when we offer America an alternative to Obama it better be a dam n good one, not a Bush McCain Jr. or there will be another socialist back in the white house in four more years. I don‘t want Romney to win the nomination because I don’t want America to think that all the Republican Party has got to counter Obama is Obama light.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 2:52pmI can make it through four more years of Obama until a true conservative can win the nomination. Plus, by then people will be dying to get their liberty back, maybe literally. I have guns, ammo, food, and shelter. If you are not prepared that is you own fault. Sometimes I think Obama is the best thing that ever happen to this county because people are starting to wake up. The sad thing though is freedom is so easy to lose but it is a bitch to get back. I understand it won’t happen overnight and no one man can do it but Ron Paul would be one hell of a good start, simply throttling down the government machine a notch won’t work. We need someone who will reverse course and I believe Paul will.

If the losers in this race will drop out then Paul can Win Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Texas, and California. The Grinch will vote for Obama if Paul wins, nuff said.

The supposed democrats that are supporting Paul do consist of “broke back mountain democrats”( those that have bent over by the democrats and republicans in Corruption DC. What you fail to understand Spanky is that if We could just have the primary’s with the contenders (Paul and Romeny) then Republicans, by majority, would support Paul over Romney. So any democrats that do support Paul are only gravy to help the Right beat Obama. So in other words, Paul can beat Obama with the Conservatives and Befuddled previous Democrats.

Oh, and you are damn right that us Ron Paul voters would rather see Obama in office than see Romney, Gingrich, or any other party line Republican. And don‘t think it’s because I like Obama. Seeing the votes tally up when he won the last election is probably the largest reason why I went from a 3 year Sergeant to a 5 year veteran. I could not stand to have that man as my commander in chief.
The truth is that Paul is the only one who would make any difference in how this nation operates on a federal level and he is the only one who would use his veto power and executive authority to make this nation a better place. If it takes 4 more years of Obama to get a man like that elected, I’ll deal with it while people like you sit in wonder at how your candidate could have lost when 1/4 of the Republican base goes to the polls and writes in Ron Paul in November.
We won‘t blame ourselves if Ron Paul doesn’t get the nomination because we know that the truth is that the majority of our nation is made up of people like you who don’t take the time to read history or actually look into the records of the men you vote for.

I would ask you to answer these most basic of questions.
Would you be willing to vote for a candidate who literally backs the NDAA, the Patriot Act, and who is unwilling to condemn the outrageous abuses of the TSA?
If you wish to save the Republic, does voting for a NWO candidate forced upon you by the powers that be do any good, or does it simply continue to reward them… and lead to your own enslavement?
You do know virtually all of the Republicans voted for the NDAA…right?
The ONLY was to get us back on track is to let these NWO types lose, as this is the only way to force them to listen to the concerns of the voters who they expect to draw support from.

Yes, it may very well be a very costly choice in the short term, but in the end the results would be the same anyway, so by taking a stand and forcing their hand, we might just get some candidates who actually stand with us…and not the NWO.
Another point being…when all of this comes crashing down around them, if we placed their kind in power, who do you think will get the blame?

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 9:38amI’ve heard that Ron is appealing to the younger crowd (teenagers, college age, young adult) due to his “freedom” theme. Who doesn’t want freedom? Being on the internet doesn’t necessarily make a person more informed or educated. It depends upon what sources they’re reading, checking, researching, etc. And I’d not rely on the Internet alone for all information.
So since he is appealing to this younger crowd, that likely accounts for his “Twitter Fame.” It was the same thing for Obama–and Obama knew how to utilize it all to his advantage (or at least his campaign team, did). Same with Ron Paul’s team, it may seem. Although I think it’s likely due to simply appealing to the younger folks who “love freedom” (who doesn’t?) and “less or no rules” (legalization of all drugs, prostitution, etc.). But I don’t think Twitter represents “mainstream America.“ Best to leave these results to the actual polls rather than some ”virtual” ones!
But still interesting–and confirms what many have felt about the “younger crowds” liking both Obama (or did) and Paul.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 11:20am@the truth none of that is the truth. That‘s exactly the kind of blind hatred this country doesn’t need. From you or anyone. It’s the kind that leads you by the nose. Romney is free to believe as he sees fit. The US Constitution 1st amendment protects that right. That and you are repeating the same rhetoric that was spewed before Kennedy was elected. That in no way helps anyone here. If you will hate a man for his beliefs than you will sooner or later hate everyone that isn’t looking back at you in the mirror every morning.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 9:11amThe reason Ron Paul is so popular online is because internet users are more informed, they can view many different sources, as opposed to relying on the MSM. I used to consider myself conservative until I did a bit of research and realised I was actually a neo-con. I learnt about the founders foreign policy ideas and the Republican party’s traditional foreign policy, and how the GOP was infeltrated by progressives, hence our current progressive foreign policy of foreign aid, spreading democracy, protecting europeans etc.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 9:30amThe problem is…This is not 1776. The world is a much different, more dangerous place. Take Iran. If they get a nuke they will USE it. Period. There is no question about this.
The founding fathers created an almost perfect government. It has become very corrupted through the passage of time, but it also performs many necessary functions the founders could not have conceived of. The answer is not to rip everything down and start over, but rather to fix the problems that exist.
Remember too, we all have different ideas of what this government should be. Everyone has an equal voice. That includes libs, neocons, libertarians, black panthers, KKK, and anyone else you can think of. The founders were very aware of this, but it seems the polarized America of today has forgotten.

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 10:03am@troll no this is not 1776. however the weapons of war at the time were just as big a threat in their percpetion as nukes are to us today. they wrote the Constitution based on over five hundred plus years of historical examples. what they found was that people DO NOT change. nothing thought of today is different than has been thought before. people react the same now as they did then. to claim nukes nukes nukes is to be afraid of the cold war mentality still. get over it. while i agree perfection has not been had in any manner (unless you’re christian and believe in Christ) throughout history, the Constitution is as close as you can get. it’s principles are still sound for this day and age as it is written. a brief look through history with perspective in mind states this over and over and over and over. every civilization had it’s doosday weapon, not different there either (only our perception of it is)

Posted on January 12, 2012 at 10:43amTroll, I disagree. What makes you so sure they’ll use it? They know if they attack us or Israel we’ll turn them into dust within minutes. I would rather they didn’t get one, but it’s not our concern. There’s no way they could hit the US with it. If Israel deems them a threat then Israel will take them out. Period. Israel are already dealing with Iran, another nuclear scientist was taken out yesterday. I have to agree with Ron Paul on this. Leave Iran alone, they’re no threat to us. If Israel deems them a threat they’re more than capable of dealing with Iran.

As for his record of “not accomplishing much”, why does that matter. I would much rather have someone who spent 30 years trying to slow down and stop the Big Government train unsuccessfully then someone who jumped on board so he could claim such accomplishments as expanding Medicare, doubling the size of the Department of Education, and racking up trillion dollar plus deficits.
