As to motivation to get out and vote....These are the same people that have contributed donations, enough donations to break records. They show up not only at their own candidates appearances, but at other candidates appearances. They wave signs at street corners...
I don't think it will be a problem motivating them to get out and vote. ;)
Barack Obama, asked on 60 Minutes about using military force to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, began a discussion of his preference for diplomacy by responding, "I think we should keep all options on the table."Quote:

There aren't that many of them, certainly more than what the polls suggest, but I don't believe for one instant there are more Ron Paul supporters than supporters of other candidates. But Ron Paul supporters are all going to vote when the time comes, the other candidates supporters aren't that interested and will most likely forget to go vote....this is why I believe he has a very good chance at winning.Quote:

I think I posted something like that earlier, but im too stoned right now to go look for that post lol
Just donated tonight to Ron Paul by the way....I've been sitting staring at his website waiting for my name to come across but there must be a glitch because it's not showing, it did for nov 5th :(
oh well, anyway just 15 minutes left to donate for this quarter (ends midnight eastern time, 9pm pacific time) SO GO DONATE RIGHT NOW :)
He will only remove the federal restrictions on it becoming legal. Under a Ron Paul presidency it will ultimately be at the decisions and laws of the states.Quote:

The federal government is behind much of the lies surrounding marijuana, end the lies and people will see there is nothing to fear about this harmless and natural weed.
Well, as much as I want him, do any of you think he may have even a chance of being president?
To me, it doesn't look like he has much of a chance....
I am voting, publicly endorsing, and donating for Dr Paul.
In fact, in response to Faux News' exclusion of Dr Paul from the upcoming forum, I sold what shares I owned of NewsCorp. I also cancelled my service with Nextel due to it's affiliation with Faux News. My New Years resolution is to be 100% Murdoch-free. Why doesn't he go back and fuck up his own country, anyway? NWS is going south for the winter.
And to those that say he doesn't have a chance....
My prediction is that Dr Paul will SWEEP THE MAP. ALL of the polls that show Dr Paul in the single digits are very flawed. For one, if you look into who is polled, you will find out that it is only people who a) have landline, and b) voted republican in 2004. Less that seven percent of registered republicans voted in 2004. Aside from that, those who voted republican in 2004 are the subgroup of the population that are most likely to be Bush loyalists.
As the saying goes: There are lies, damned lies, and then there are statistics.
The ONLY reliable election predictor is fundraising, taking into account the actual dollar amount, as well as the number of donors. I repeat: Ron Paul will sweep the map.
based on what? As previously explained the way polls are conducted, support of Ron Paul cannot be accurately collected. Most of the people that think he doesn't have a chance are basing that assumption on the national polls, which are not even a reliable predictor to who will win a primary, let alone an accurate base to say who has how much of a chance at winning. The reality is that with so many undecided voters anybody has a chance....except Allen Keys, :P lolQuote:

Ron Paul all the way!
He's got my vote for sure January 15th.
That 72 year old has got my vote!
i like him. he seems consistent with many good points to his agenda, some i dont like, but so far, he is my favorite republican candidate
He has a good chance. I agree with GotWake88 ... he could sweep the map. He wins the most straw polls, debate polls and raises the most money in the 4th quarter. His growth is exponential and I love it! Let Freedom Ring!Quote:

The question is, what do you people expect from the government? Do you expect a socialist, or even a fascist tone to our government? Most of us align with capitalism / democracy (im not talking to thoes of you who despise capitalism, you radical bastards) yet when you look at whats popular, people want lower taxes, medicare benefits, basically asking for increased government activity, but less funding. You people apparently WANT our government WAY outspending its worth, throwing our country into debt and continuing to ruin the dollar. This is our own fucking government spending, funding for the war, all sorts of things. I personally think its time Americas government goes back to its roots and stops babying its citizens (at a price I might add) Imagin a father who loves his son, and the kid says "daddy, I want "this", I want "that", I want!!!" and, so the father buys the toys or whatever. Problem is hes been living off credit cards, borrowing the money to buy his kid all sorts of awesome things but also for food and things they need. Everything seems fine but the father knows otherwise, because one of his cards wasn't accepted and knows he cant afford the min payment. The last thing he wants to do is inform his child of the impending doom. But then the shit hits the fan and he declares bankruptcy, his credit scores ruined, house revoked, I think all of us can agree the father overspent himself and now he suffers.
Have any of you heard of the Amero? Well, look it up. You will probably be seeing a lot of it soon. Ron Paul is the only candidate that even acknowelages the Amero, NAFTA's highways, the unionization of Canada, US, and Mexico to the NAU (North American Union) and no, this is not fake. Now think, what are some possible ways to actually integrate this currency into america? Hmmm...... well, if the dollar collapses, the amero would seem like a pretty good idea. What makes me sick is the idea that most these candidates would wait for economic crisis, then spring in the Amero, or maybe even Bush if it happend sooner. The ugly fact is the dollar is going down. It can only decrease in value with the way things are going now. Ron Paul is the only candidate that can save the $, give people back there liberties and freedom, cut the useless, parenting government programs (Public schooling is not being cut BTW) stop this bullshit war, cut our empire to size and return attention to important matters here at home.
Truely, Ron Paul is such a good candidate I can't believe people are even considering cheese dicks like romny, guliani, or hilary. I guess the outcome of November 2008 will just show how much of us have successfully been hypnotized.
Hello National ID, NAU and the Amero, Iran, patriot act III, police state America, bye bye freedom....
Fuck the Amero. Fuck the NAU. And fuck the Nasco Corridor(which is already under construction). These three things are the biggest potential infringements to our national sovereignty that we have ever experienced. We need a true libertarian to return this nation to its Jeffersonian roots. We need to return to commodity-backed currency, before the dollar crashes, and its too late. We need to repeal the Patriot Act, and we certainly need to repeal the Military Commissions Act of 2006(literally the most frightening peice of legislation that has ever passed Congress).
I fear that the 2008 may be America's last chance to return itself to its roots.
Restore the Republic.
Ron Paul 2008
Great post, very passionate and motivating. While we're nitpicking through unnoticed changes happening daily in our government, "Totalitarian" feels like an appropriate addition to the 'Hello' list.Quote:
