He is too out of sink with their war machine policy.
Do you think they will let him ? Some say they [other Republicans] will
go so far as to rig the votes.

Hey, I'm a Ron Paul supporter and I understand what's happening. The GOP turned into the super-warhawk party, and the super tough on drug enforcement party. Those two issues are going to kill him among the GOP's converts to these poorly thought out causes. Americans have been psycholically conditioned to believe that in order to be a true American patriot you must:
1.) Support an aggressive foreign policy.
2.) Support the war on drugs.
Voices to the contrary are not something that either party is used to hearing. The big two parties mostly argue over whether to go a little bigger or a little smaller in both areas.
I don't think anyone is rigging the vote at this point. If it happens, I think Democratic side of the media will be all over it. They'd love to break a story about Republicans cheating, that'd make their day! (Stuffing the ballot box ain't as easy as it used to be, but the Dems still do a lot more of it than the GOP.) But mostly, Ron Paul is in a room full of people who believe that the world is flat, and he has the audacity to tell them it's round.

Media hype. A majority of Americans want us out of the Middle East.
I think people either love the guy or they just don't care for a number of reasons. Nothing was rigged, he just doesn't have a big enough of base. He suffers from trying to do too much change, which is concept that is hard to embrace(especially among older people).

Well yeah, when he says he'll do away with Medicare and Social Security !

At least be factual. His plan doesn't do that. Ideals and policy are two different things. In order for ideals to work, the steps ahead need to work as well. So if that is truly your concern, and not just a spit in the wind, you should know that his policies do not cut either program, nor does he intend on doing so. If you just want to attack blindly, then yeah, sure, whatever you say. I honestly don't know which you are, so I at least give you that option.
