I have supported Ron Paul from the start. He and I see the world quite a bit alike. Romney seems like some rich guy his rich friends are supporting. Paul sees things much more clearly and has the maturity and world view to do what we need done. Things like getting our of all wars and staying out of other nations business; securing the border; and getting Americans back to work; and for Godssake STOP giving away our money to foreign nations while we struggle right here in America. This is just my opinion. I could be wrong. -- Ed Hartwell, Veteran, Voter, Citizen, and an American for America.

I know this is about the GOP candidates but I wish Obama would quit and move back to Kenya with his evil wife.

Both Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich should drop out. Neither one of them stands a chance. If Santorum was a long shot then these two are off the reservation.

Romney is to liberal to fire up the base. Many independents see Romney as no different than Obama. After all their top contributors of both of them are a very similar list.

At least he wont lie about his religion (see Obama) and loyalty to this country (Obama again in seeking U.N. support against state of Arizona).

reply
Chris to red 2012/04/26 08:12:59

Religion is personal. But you have a point when it comes to honesty. However, why should I believe Romney would have any more loyalty to our country after he has been bought out with so much money by companies and banks with there own agendas? It's no different than the position Obama is in. Obama is a puppet. And so is Romney, evident by his speeches and status quo stances.

Mitt Romney

Ok, Willie bought out Santorum,Perry and "the babe". He should admit to his underhandedness and get out. Buying the presidential election is no longer an option. He's got enough money to hire the "hackers" for the election computers and now can't be trusted. I am just amazed that my party is stuck in this mess. Why can't we have someone with good character Lord?

RP shouldn't even be in the race in the first place. He's as relevant as a 3rd party candidate which, if launched, would GUARANTEE Obummer's re-election.

According to Rasmussen Reports Paul beats Obama by 1 point in a general election and other national polls Paul does better than Romney against Obama (Gallup for instance shows Paul 1 point behind Obama while Romney is 9 points behind). Paul is the only GOP candidate than can get independents and democrats to vote for him (the GOP will vote for anyone but Obama so they are already wrapped up).

Oh and by the way, Paul does that well even with the media blacking him out and the GOP trying to sideline him. Now imagine what the numbers will look like once the media has to give equal time to Paul and the RNC has to stop blackballing him at every turn.

reply
hudistunt to PureChaos 2012/04/19 21:06:44

SO why is he so low in the polls against Romney et al?

reply
Dan ☮ R... to hudistunt 2012/04/20 17:44:21

Because, Ron Paul is far more attractive to the whole political spectrum of the US. Romney appeals to mainline republicans, but I dont know why since if you lookat his past, hes a hardcore "liberal".

People also suspect vote fraud, because of many caucus goers finding their precinct results were changed, video tapes of admitted fraud, refusal to verify voter identity, many vote fraud prevention policies were removed (example, in NH the rules changed to make counting the voters optional, allowing potential ballot stuffing) and suspicious activity,
I couldgo on.

They all should drop out, they all stink on ice. Every Republican candidate is a threat to real American values. They are all lackeys of the rich (ie: Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson,. Richard Mellon Schaife, et al)

Ron Paul has no corporate backers or special interests. Now if you look at Obama he is backed by Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, AHIP, and PhrMa. Obama has tossed out bail out candy to all the rich people like Warren Buffet and his buddies at Goldman Sachs. Let me know your thoughts on Obama's feed the rich activities.

reply
Dan ☮ R... to PureChaos 2012/04/20 17:47:01

In their language, Obama is a 1%er and works for the top 1% of the 1%ers.

I know that being a 1%er doesnt make you a bad guy. I'm just trying to get a point across.

red to Ray 2012/04/20 04:38:52

Glad I'm not aligned with Obama's core base of welfare queens, criminals, confused liberals, newly arrived immigrants who may or may not be legal citizens (Obama doesn't want voter I.D. for this reason), and all the other losers who voted in this nobody back in 2008.

It won't happen because the Wall Street international banking gang control both major parties... but for the sake of the country the Republicans should jettison Romney who's clone of Bush and a white version of the commie Obama. Stop the insanity of electing Rockefeller/Rothschild NWO candidates. Join the resistance to fascism... vote for Ron Paul on whatever ballot line he appears on. To vote for Romney is a vote for Rockefeller-Hitler, to vote for Obama is a vote for Rothschild-Stalin. Both socialists s.u.c.k.

If the Republican loses Florida, they lose the election. And Romney trails Obama by 5 points here already. And that's before the PACs supporting Obama "pull a Romney" and dump untold tons of cash on negative advertising trashing Mitt. That's how Romney was successful in the primaries, and that's how he will lose.

Ron Paul just won the majority delegates to the national convention in multiple states and has a shot at getting the nomination since the convention will be brokered. If you have ever been to the conventions or been a delegate you would know the process is about more than the meaningless straw polls.
