Meanwhile there is a whole world out there - the real world - that they are completely and totally unaware of.

So yeah, college kids are not exactly astute and wise people.
How did your big government candidates do with manipulating the Housing Industry that ruined the economy? Support it all the way didnt they? Why listen to them, or you?

The rally will start at 8:30 p.m. and last about an hour, including a 20-30 minute speech and a question and answer session with the Texas Republican, said Koteskey, a first-year political science and history student.
Koteskey and the group have been working since January to bring Paul to UCLA, he said. They lined Bruin Walk until early March to collect the necessary 1,000 signatures to prove to the campaign there’s enough support on campus for Paul to speak, Koteskey said.

Can you imagine Obama getting that many signatures to hear him speak? me neither.

And what did your runty little savior from Texas do the whole time - being in Congress? Did he stop anything? No, he didn't. He did what he always does. He sat uninvolved on the sidelines, running his mouth but not much else.

Don't let them discourage you. It's all speculation and/or lies about the delegate count. This may be closer to the truth.

IO would love to have ROn Paul as president....but the fat is that he is only getting about 10% of the recent primary votes. Sadly, he has been marginalized by the media and the republican party.

The best we can hope for is that SOME of Ron Paul's ideology gets put into the republican platform.

Ron Paul...and I do not know a lot about him being a CANADIAN...but I sense something good about this man. It seems all the good men who are old and wise...are blocked by dark and foolish forces ---and held back till they are to old to continue..They are playing the waiting game with him thinking time is on their side of a a deluded and self serving status quo.


There is a reversal of polarity taking place and good is flowing through evil and evil flowing through good...as this thing is re-setting it self there is great confusion. In time things will adjust and be back in place.

Washington is like a huge ant hill. There is no queen or king ant at present..it is running on auto-pilot..Imagine PAUL as the savior ant...The ant that can see...smell and has the moral capacity to dispense good judgement..he has clear vision.

Imagine that the whole and complete majority of the other ants are blind- deaf- and suffering from a delusion...BUT the are the norm..These normal ants imagine that the ONE ant that can see is not of he norm and is evil....the one good ant that can be their salvation..must be destroyed even if in the long run it destroys the whole hill...This foolish attack against Paul from a visionary stand point is suicidal..but the ants don't know that.

The corrupt and foolish state of affairs wishes to preserve it self...even though this intense and desperate act of survival will be their down fall..Not that PAUL is a messiah figure...but he is as close as you are going to get..If AMERICA waits to long ...Paul will grow even older...and fade away...The nation will have lost it's chance for redemption and moral rebuilding...AFTER this good man is destroyed...the nation will go into a state of rapid auto-cannibalism and implode on itself...


I remember before the system degraded and broke Collin Powell who at one time before he gave up because of evil pressure - would have made a fine president..but they ruined the man...and he became something else.....empty. I just hope that Paul...will survive....as for the other candidates...There are none..but deluded America will elect a non candidate sadly to say....so far...two Bush presidencies ...and one surrogate black president that represents white corporate interests.....good luck.

lol runty little savior. You do know he's the only person to hit a ball over the fence in the Congressional baseball game.
Ron Paul works for his constituents and probably besides the late Sen Byrd from W Virginia got his constituents their money back better than anyone.
Your statement proves you do not believe in personal responsibility. Ron Pauls bills were to cut the size of government. The hacks you support went the other way which has put in in this horrible economy.
You blame Ron Paul for perceived wrongs yet don't hold the feet to the fire on the ones that were wrong when they increased government. That makes sense, in bizarro world.
