I think that you missed it, I believe that Wrong would definately be included in the "they are ALL SHIT". I would consider him the tapered end that is pointing straight up. JMHO:thumbsup:

That's some pretty wishful thinking though! A little optomistic don't you think?:jointsmile:

And you claim they have a firm understanding of how government works and "really" know what Wrong wants to do and how he'll do it. It makes sense though that all his supporters ARE JUST the people that canvas for him. But that's not right either because you also have to account for ALL of his supporters that are between the ages of 13 and 17 too! Right?:wtf:

Hmmm.... Are you trying to imply that Ron is the only candidate who has people under the age of 18 supporting him? Ron Paul has the largest meet up groups online and we all talk and work with each other online, so yes we do have an understanding of what Ron wants to do and how he will do it. I don't know about you but I think having a Candidate who wants to follow the constitution and follow it strictly is something this country needs.

No I am not implying anything, I am flat out stating that most of his supporters are not adults, I think it's great that any of the candidates would get support from people under 18, but it is really REALLY irrelevant. You can't vote if you are under 18, which easily explains how he can win landslide txt msging voting and lose his ass in real elections.:thumbsup:

So what is his secret to winning the txt message polls?

I think Ron Paul has some really good points. I really like the little guy. I think he is running on the wrong ticket. Actually the way the other republican candidates laugh at him they must think he is on the wrong ticket too.

I like him. I just can't see him being tough. I want someone that will kick Pakistan's ass if need be.

Ron Paul doesn't seem like the ass kicking type.

Yeah, Ron Paul seems like the money saving and freedom restoring type...Which is exactly why I'm voting for him. The constitution means a lot to me, and a president who would expressly follow the rule of the constitution is a true American. Limited government is just what we need, I don't need the government to tell me how to fucking live, or how to spend my money, it's my body and it's my money, and I would like to do as I wish with both of those things. The government takes my money to rebuild bridges in Iraq that we're blowing up...And they force me to smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol, and tell me that I will be arrested for using marijuana, because it wont kill me or get me hooked. Fuck the government.

Ron Paul or noone at all.

Good for you! I am an Obama person myself but as long as you are involved in the process thats all that matters.

Obama also knows the need to respect our constitution. He has been defending it as a constitutional lawyer for a while. He has even taught constitutional law.

Have you read this paper by Ron Paul? Its really good.

The Original American Foreign Policy by Ron Paul

I really don't know why he ran as a republican...

He's been elected into congress 10x as a Republican and in '88 while on the Libertarian ticket he was still a registered Republican. Being in any 3rd party would have only gotten him less media coverage then he is getting now.

I'll write-in Ron in the primaries if he doesn't make it or get on a 3rd party ticket. I don't know if he will win but at least more people now know his positions then they did a year ago and his message will resonate to future elections. Ron has inspired many of his followers to get into politics at the local level to try and change things from the ground up. Maybe in 10 years we can look back and say Ron was on to something. If you don't believe me go check out his book "A Foreign Policy of Freedom: Peace, Commerce, and Honest Friendship ". Its a collection of all his floor speeches in the house of Reps. Compare what he was saying 10-15 years ago to where we are now today and you can see he was spot on.

Ron's got a new book coming out in April called "The Revolution: A Manifesto" which is currently #3 on Amazon and #13 on Barns and Noble. Apparently us spammers got ahold of a credit card. ;) The preface to the book can be found here : Ron Paul Book Bomb. I've got 6 books on order, one for me, three to be mailed to family members, and the last two will be donated to the public library.

right on

I think Ron Paul will make a fine president! I support him to the fullest extent. I don't know why, but alot of people just hate the thought of Ron Paul, while so many seem to adore him. it feels kind of strange...almost unreal. If you don't like the man then don't vote for him, at least let him get the little media attentions he deserves. With that said, since i support Ron Paul, and I am FAR passed the legal age to vote. (unlike most of Ron Pauls supporters) I will defently be voting for this man because he is a true Leader :woohoo: In your face!
