Ron Paul would have been America's first libertarian President if the powerful alliance of state and corporations (especially corporate media) hadn't done everything they could to sabotage and marginalize him. That's ok though...try as they might, they can no longer sweep these powerful ideas back under the rug now that they're out and gaining almost viral popularity.
At this point, they can only try to forestall the inevitable. A free and voluntary society is coming. The only thing we can't predict with much certitude is whether we will transition painlessly and peaceably, in time to save the economy, or whether the reform will come after a series of painful lessons learned at the cruel hands of dictators, central planners, and kleptocrats.

In a carefully worded statement sent out by Ron Paul's campaign chairman on Tuesday morning, the GOP candidate announced that he's... Well, he's not exactly dropping out of the race, but he is conceding defeat. Jesse Benton wrote, "Unfortunately, barring something very unforeseen, our delegate total will not be strong enough to win the nomination. However, our delegates can still make a major impact at the National Convention and beyond."
For many, Mitt Romney has been the winner for some time. While Paul had enormous public support and the potential to significantly impact voting, he hadn't been faring too well in caucuses and primaries, and only had 104 delegates to Romney's 966. But Benton says things could have played out differently if other candidates like Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich had stayed it. As for Paul's new direction, his team is "doing everything in our power to work with out supporters." And for the record, he says it's "unlikely" he'll back Romney. Could someone like Ron Paul, just shy of a third party, ever hope to win?

Freedom will have its day. And maybe by then we can "stop dreaming" and grasp on to it so it may remain.
Mitt Romney or Obama??????? what a joke........ hope everyone's ready 4 another 4 years of hell!!!!!!
Ron Paul would have "mopped the floor" with Obama in the "debate", handed him his ass in the election, and we would have had a balanced budget by now.
You don't give a second thought about "what has this candidate done for our country?"
What is his voting record? Does this guy have too much "dirt in his past" to beat a sitting incumbent? Does this guy compromise his convictions?
Certainly if you would put the same amount of "importance" to the value of your vote as I do you would never vote for that weasel.
How many times do you repeat the same mistake before you learn from it?
You never answered the big question...
How many times do you repeat the same mistake before you learn from it?
The sad part is people like yourself believe anything they spew.
