Isn't everyone a value voter? Doesn't every voter expect good value for their vote?

It was about family values.

Ron Paul is the only one who has proven he will not bend to or be owned by any of them.
Keep telling yourself that as Paul gets the shaft again.
You get to do what you are told

Besides "End the Fed" is catchier than "This is what Democracy looks like" or "We are the 99%"
The supporters of Ron Paul are interested in ending the Fed and have distanced themselves from Occupy Wall Street since the rhetoric of O W S is blaming the symptom (wall street greed taking advantage of crony capitalism) and not the cause.

This is a straw poll of the people in a voting block, not the government.

Let us assume that everything that you say is true about Goldman Sachs, The IMF (funded greatly by The FED), The CFR, The Rand Corp., The Trilateral Commission, British, German, and French Banks, etc... run the world and they want another POTUS who will be spineless to the new global currency/banking system and one global government as Obama has been so willing.

If there is such a powerful conspiratorial alliance, do you think that Ron Paul will ever sit one day in the oval office, even if he is elected?

As an Independent in Arizona I get to vote in either primary, I may well vote for Paul since the Democratic primary will probably be unopposed. But I don't believe they will ever allow him to be nominated

We'll see who gets nominated

Interesting about voting either way, in many states independents can not vote in primaries.
