Ron Paul might have a chance to become senator. Kay Bailey Hutchison will be leaving office. Maybe he could win her seat and become a senator.

Ron Paul is out of elected office if he does not win the 2012 election, he has already announced this. He has other projects in mind.

NO, 0, zip, forget it, no way, when pigs fly.....Paul will get 8-12% and enough delegates to get a Cabinet Post maybe. Of course the odds of this nation collapsing into martial law/civil war before Nov. 2012 are much higher by miles than Paul even getting within a country mile of 1600 PA Ave.!!

He will never win the nomination because he hasn't tried to screw over the American people.

Yes we should. But he has no chance.

Too many people have a vested interest in our current nanny state.

People love talking cuts and small government until it's an issue that hits home.

Paul needs to do some flip floppin so he can get the media's attention and see some more support

he also needs to stop worrying about freedom and individual liberties and start concentrating on screwing over our well-being as a country

Also, harrassing a female needs to be an option at this point as well.

These are the things that will gain him support and will help to get his numbers to rise

I think he has made it very clear: it is Pres or nothing and I am not even sure how much he wants to be Pres. It could simply be, he wants to get his ideas out to the public.
