According to Fox "news" Ron Paul "didn't win a single state."

Tyranny rules. The RNC and DNC are more alike than different.

Do you understand that technically there is no nominee UNTIL the delegates votes have been recorded at the Convention? Do you prefer totalitarianism or do you think that delegates should be allowed to be seated as elected and place their votes?

Frankly, from what I saw live streamed tonight, I have no doubt Ron Paul would beat Obama. But, the RNC had to play dirty and corrupt the primaries and the convention. If Romney is a shoe-in why does the RNC have to cheat and deny Ron Paul delegates their seat and their vote? Why not allow Ron Paul to speak? WHat are they afraid of, the truth?
Romney's delegates are UNBOUND and are getting ready to vote for RON PAUL at the convention. That's why the Romney camp has been trying to get RON PAUL removed from the ballot to no avail. It looks like RON PAUL will win the Republican nomination in a landslide.

Liberty and individual freedom, abolish income tax, leave social issues to the states, and have a non-interventionist foreign policy (not to be confused with isolationist).

Yea Ron Paul is a wacko!!!...........NOT! He is actually a great man of integrity that won't sell his soul, and the American people, for a dollar.

Interesting to watch the GOP eat their young on this issue. Paul not only was able to put together a campaign that attracted some youth to the party, he also had heavy support from military members.

If the GOP won't decide to get off their a**** and embrace these voters as part of the process, they will find a home somewhere else.........perhaps another 3rd party, drawn primarily from the right. I would think twice b4 disenfranchising any group of young voters from the GOP.

As an independent, I liked Ron Paul and thought he made a heck of a lot more sense than any of the others. His genuine integrity did shine through.

Dr Paul did run as the Libertarian party candidate - no need to form another Party

I agree the Republican party Dr Paul once embraced hasn't been around for a long long time....
lost their way - more like anchors away (aweigh)
