Ron Paul, because he knew deep down he had no hope of being elected, was free to say the sort of things which he wouldn’t have said, had he been a mainstream candidate.

If nothing else he made people think, and hopefully he still will, as a Congressman.

I think Ron Paul just said what he has been saying for the last 30 years. It isn’t in his character to change it for any reason other than principal. He is a real man and tells the truth even when it isn’t easy.

Ron Paul has had the same story for years…because it’s the truth.

He’s far above being disingenuous. I saw a blog where an Iranian said “Dr. Paul is too honest for American politics”

PLEASE……the best tool for recruiting new revolutionaries is the latest issue of Republic Magazine, re: “The IRS Tax Scam”.

I ordered 100 to distribute to the ignorant masses, and it works almost 100% of the time.

Go to http://www.republicmagazine.com, order some and hand them out ASAP.

if you don’t believe that the IRS and Fed.Res. is a scam, you might be in the wrong revolution.

reply to Christopher above, who stated that Ron Paul spoke of the real issues because he was not a “mainstream” candidate, if Christopher and others like him would pull their head out of their rear-ends for 5 min (maybe do a little research instead of letting the TV spoon-feed them bs) they would notice that Ron Paul says the same thing he’s been saying for 30 years since he got into politics. Ron Paul doesn’t need or want advisors to tell him what to say, he says it like is and follows his words with actions, the rest of the candidates just spew whatever BS their advisors think will get them the most votes, then they do whatever they want once they’re in office. Until people like Christopher learn how to think for themselves and more carefully scrutinize those they cast their votes for we will continue to have more of the same until our ultimate economic collapse (which shouldn’t be far off at this point by the look of things). In the end, Americans get the government they deserve, and until more people are ready to embrace Pauls message of freedom and common sense (and follow our own law of the land: the constitution) they will continue to have a government that lies to them, cheats them out of their constitutional rights and robs them blind (then sends them the bill for the holdup)… enjoy America!

Third party run is out but the write-in vote could be huge if enough people can wake up! Absentee ballots are about the only safe way to vote these days.

FreedomFest 2008 – Congressman Ron Paul and Bob Barr have been confirmed as a speakers and they will join our 100 plus speakers and 1,000 plus attendees in Las Vegas on July 10 -12 at Freedomfest 2008. We look forward to their thoughts and insight on the future of the Ron Paul Revolution and his Campaign For Freedom.

Also we will also have Richard Viguerie, often called the “funding father” of modern conservative strategy as his direct mail efforts started the modern conservative movement. 2008 will be a watershed year in American politics in our fight for a return to liberty and limited constitutional government. We must continue the campaign to promote the Ron Paul Revolution of liberty, a return to limited constitutional government and free markets to the American public.

This is how a write-in campaign could work: Let’s say there are 1 million hard core supporters of Dr. Paul right now. Each of us must educate at least 10 others and convince them that a vote for Ron Paul is the only way to save our country. Then we must encourage them to educate at least 10 more. That would be 111,000,000. Enough to win. We can win this thing, and we must. If we don’t succeed, the whole world is f@*#ed. We have almost 8 months to accomplish this, and we must.

It’s Ron Paul or bust. Literally.
