Right ahead, None of the Above and far behind all the other major candidates, just like the last time he was Rejected. The Dems will apsolutely love it if Paul runs as an Independent candidate, it would assure them of a Big win and not just the Whitehouse.

Getting the nomination is the problem without the millions and millions of special interest campaign financing. Paul won't play their game, so he won't get their money. He may get the nomination anyway due to widespread popular support. The general election is a foregone conclusion. Joe the plumber would win against Obama.

And he has already made it clear that he won't run as a third party candidate, so that won't happen.

Which means he cannot win, so I can only assume the reason he is running is to try and get his message out, which, just like what happened last election, is not really happening and when it is, it is often rejected when looked at in detail, which is what I did.

Well, won't dare get in argument with you, if you actually believe that.
