DID RON PAUL JUST DROP OUT OF THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE??? READ HIS STATEMENT, YOU DECIDE.
As I reflect on our 2012 Presidential campaign, I am humbled by the supporters who have worked so hard and sacrificed so much. And I am so proud of what we have accomplished. We will not stop until we have restored what once made America the greatest country in human history.
This campaign fought hard and won electoral success that the talking heads and pundits never thought possible. But, this campaign is also about more than just the 2012 election. It has been part of a quest I began 40 years ago and that so many have joined. It is about the campaign for Liberty, which has taken a tremendous leap forward in this election and will continue to grow stronger in the future until we finally win.
Our campaign will continue to work in the state convention process. We will continue to take leadership positions, win delegates, and carry a strong message to the Republican National Convention that Liberty is the way of the future.
Moving forward, however, we will no longer spend resources campaigning in primaries in states that have not yet voted. Doing so with any hope of success would take many tens of millions of dollars we simply do not have. I encourage all supporters of Liberty to make sure you get to the polls and make your voices heard, particularly in the local, state, and Congressional elections, where so many defenders of Freedom are fighting and need your support.
I hope all supporters of Liberty will remain deeply involved - become delegates, win office, and take leadership positions. I will be right there with you. In the coming days, my campaign leadership will lay out to you our delegate strategy and what you can do to help, so please stay tuned.
For Liberty,
Ron Paul.

Tinka123 2012/05/14 20:02:03NOOOOOOO!!!!!+16No. There's no point in draining finances on primary states. His strategy has always been to focus on the caucus states. And he will be at the convention. So will his supporters. lol

See ya there!





















Romney ... no substance but makes good face for the camera. Why do people believe he is the only Repubilican candidate running to the point of fanatism? Or what so many like to accuse those who follow the Obama ... pure unadulterated idol worship. I mean it must be because the guy looks great!
This is the GOP and Romney supporters this past Saturday in my home state as a Paul supporter speaks up. Just like the DEM and Obama supporters of 2008. the GOP Romney camp learned from the master in denying any hint of an honest election ...
Sincerely,
maggot

Just thinking out loud!
I've explained this in detail on other pages, but in short.... he will select the best & brightest team for his cabinet and especially the various dept. secretary positions.
Dept. of Energy, (including the EPA) Interior, Commerce, Labor, Treasury, Defense, Health & Human Services, Justice and Homeland Security will be huge.
They will be able to reverse most of the damage that's occurred over the past three years by rolling back directives and dept. policies, getting us back the fundamental problems and dealing with them sensibly,
Opening up Federal lands to utilize our own resources, tackling our $2.5 Trillion in badly needed infrastructure repairs & upgrades and putting millions back to work.
Getting rid of regulations, restrictions, & taxes that are driving our manufacturing jobs overseas. Putting our returning troops on the border in the capacity of National Guardsmen enforcing Federal law, K-9 teams in our airports, instead of sending them to the unemployment office.
There are HUGE differences between 0bozo & Romney but the RP cult simply refuses to see them and use it as a talking point without even looking into his proven record.
Romney knows the Presidency isn't a one-man-band,...

Romney knows the Presidency isn't a one-man-band, and that the Person at top is a manager of people who they have selected to carry out policy.
People underestimate the power of those secretary, agency and cabinet positions but if one looks at what actually happened over the past three yeas, that's where a majority of the problems occurred and not from the Congress alone.
Romney supports the Patriot Act, NDAA, etc... He is a civil rights killing machine and the only thing he cares about is power and money!

You have gone too far over the line in your obsession to elect Ron Paul.
As important as you think that is, it is not the be all and end all of the universe, though you believe that it is. There will be another day, if today is not the day.
It's way past time to examine what you are doing by condemning everyone who disagrees with you. That's insanity. They are good people who have their own philosophy, and they should not be abused by you or anyone! That's a liberal tactic!
You may think you are absolutely right, but there are millions of people who think you are wrong. Their opinions are as valid as yours, believe it or not.
What is wrong is to diss all of us with scurrilous labels like "white panthers", "neocons" etc because we disagree with whom YOU think needs to be president!
You have lost all perspective in your zeal to force the outcome you want. You are selling your soul to a political process that you can not control! We all do the best we can f...

We all do the best we can for the candidate of our choice...but we don't call names or deliberately make enemies of the opposition. We try to work with facts, not the hate you've been spewing. It's unseemly and not worthy of you.

Your area is RP country! You refuse to accept that your RP fever does not translate to a win across the country! The votes are simply not there!
You can dig your heels in, and it will hand you a total loss. If you can't have your choice, you don't appear to care if Obama wins! I consider that outrageous. I refuse to be close minded. I will work to get the important issues on the platform. I work with what I have, not what I wish I had. I refuse to remain paralyzed and powerless. That accomplishes nothing!
RP, himself, suggested that his supporters' behavior needed curbing!
We all have to do what we know in our hearts is right! That does not make either Ron Paul or Romney supporters my enemy, simply constituents with a different point of view on how to take our country back. The ball is in your court. Do with it what you will. I am not your enemy. I have an intelligent mind of my own and I am using it to take back my country, my way!
and yet you continue to support the man who allows it. As far as what you stated about RP and his supporters regarding voter fraud ... I'd check your sources.
Despite the different clocks and the different methods of aggregating voter preferences, iIf voter preferences are such that the median senator is a socialist, whether elected by design or by accident the median representative is unlikely to be constitutional.
“One of the great tragedies of human history is the difficulty of escaping from tyranny, since tyrants so ruthlessly maintain their power.”
For those who continue to support the status quo, you send a clear message to Washington that our Constitution, it’s Laws, and the value of liberty just doesn’t matter and in return they send another wannabe liar-in-chief for the 2012 election. Is this what you want for America’s future?
“Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigue of supporting it” ~ Patrick Henry
“If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.” ~ Thomas Paine
Let's not go there and play that game!
I have a library full of your quotes and I'm familiar with all of them..and great as they are, you can make them fit almost every situation!
"For those who continue to support the status quo, you send a clear message to Washington that our Constitution, it’s Laws, and the value of liberty just doesn’t matter and in return they send another wannabe liar-in-chief for the 2012 election."
RP will NOT be the candidate. So you are suggesting I vote for a third party candidate?? RP has given no indication that he will be a third party candidate, so just what are you selling?
"But Benton stressed repeatedly that the campaign will be emphasizing "decorum and respect" among Paul's delegates, noting that "our supporters are going to get an excessive amount of blame for problems that arise in heated moments at conventions." 'RP, himself, suggested that his supporters' behavior needed curbing.'
edit: spelling correct.

This strategy is working. I doubt the MSM told you this, but here is reality:
Ron Paul supporters have been securing delegates to the RNC by a WIDE MARGIN. In Romney's state of Massachusetts, 20 of the 23 elected delegates were Ron Paul supporters. Many Republican state chairs have been "taken over" by RP supporters. This essentially means that Paul has already won. The future of the Party is firmly in the hands of Ron Paul supporters, whether or not RP wins the presidency.
Also, how can you go around touting that Romney is electable when he CAN'T EVEN ORGANIZE TO SECURE THE DELEGATES IN THE STATES HE WON?!? He has NO organization. Romney has a horribly run poor excuse for a campaign.
