To me that is a non-issue. I look at the other generic GOP candidates as Obama with different rhetoric.

That surprises me because none of the current GOP candidates are owned by George Soros.

I know, they are owned by the Koch brothers and other crony corporatist elite.

Soros=Koch, same results, different rhetoric.

I disagree. If I did agree I would have to say the the Koch brothers respect our country unlike George Soros.

Koch brothers want to rig the system for their benefit, just as Soros does. Again, only their rhetoric and their team are different, the results are the same.

agreed crony corporatism at its finest.
There is no doubt Koch and Soros do some good with the money they've made. However manipulating government and the free market into a managed economy isn't the way to go about it.

If RP can get past the neocon gatekeepers I'm convinced he can easily beat Obama.

Ron not only will pull the much vaunted middle vote (libertarian, independent), but will also pull many of the disillusioned Democrats from Obama.

The message of Freedom resonates across party lines.

I don't think so, I think we will unite regardless of the candidate and either Paul will get the nomination or he will not run at all. He is already looking really tired. I don't think he wants to go out and run just for the sake or running.
