I'll put right here in print the SN and any other info you want- one for one. Neither Ron or Rand Paul will be the GOP candidate for President in 2012. You hard-line absolutist Libertarians put your money where your mouth is- right here, right now. I challenge any of you.
I wasn't trying to direct my post to you in particular. I just get frustrated with the "He doesn't stand a chance" argument. Question is WHY doesn't he stand a chance? Because the mainstream media says so? The mainstream media doesn't vote in the primaries, we do. So if you want to just right him off then go right ahead. I'm well aware of the chances of his GOP nod. I'm sure he is also. In my opinion he is doing it more to promote the ideals of liberty and change the course of the debate.


The fact is we can't afford another standard/progressive republican president any more then we can afford another democratic socialist.

So, what is a conservative to do? Just go with the same old shit or should we actually get some change for once?

When I voted for Paul in the '08 primaries we had a couple stand up and declare their support for Mitt Romney because, " he is the most conservative candidate that stands a chance of winning" They just basically wrote off Ron Paul because his views are not "ordained" by the establishment media. Just a bunch of "sleeping" people that let other people decide who is "qualified" to run their corporate welfare government............

Lets just hope that this time people actually vote for the most conservative candidate this time , because this country will be no more in another 4 years......Hell, it may already be to late.......
