I tried to give you a rep point, but it won't let me...
BUT... I know people who can, and I'll ask him to do it for me
this weekend.

You are SO my kind of people!
I can't wait to get to OK!

OMG, he is so obscure and I just find it fascinating that a lot of people on here are impressed with him. All it took for me was listening to him for 15 minutes and I was sold on him, too.

CC, you'll find that some states take care of their homeless, too instead of burning or razing their campsites. OK happens to be one of those states just like my own state feels a responsibility for others.

(I think you mean "CG", C.C. is my cat!)
The media ignores him, but he's the ONLY candidate with a clue as far as the Constitution goes... He has a PERFECT CONSTITUTIONAL voting record... You can't fake that!

Make sure to VOTE in the PRIMARIES!.
Ron Paul or no one at all!

You too are MY kind of folk!

Ron Paul tends reminds me of Perot when he was running for president. They both tend to make more sense than the other candidates.

I'll vote for Ron Paul, I don't care how much the media ignores him. I've also contributed to his campaign; not much but hey every little bit helps!

Just don't forget to vote in the primaries for your choice. I feel that is the only chance the people have to make a difference. I'll hate it if I'm faced with a choice between who I hate the least in the November election.

They both understood the law better.

Ross Perot was more "interesting" than Ron Paul, but he had the right idea, and I would have voted for him.

I think it really s*cks the way the media pretends he doesn't exist.
He obviously has a big following, because he's constantly breaking fund raising records.

What's really amazing, is that he's pretty much in the middle. Both liberals AND conservatives would like him... If they ever got to hear him.

(Getting up on soap box)
Don't let the media choose your next president!
Do your research and make an informed decision!

(Stepping down from soap box.)

For everyone else who doesn't know much about Ron Paul,
You can check out his website:http://www.ronpaul2008.com/

If you want to see the really good stuff, here's his site in Texas
where he's been writing a column since the 90s...
Check this stuff out... Most of it was written before he was running for president.
It's good stuff... Better than his campaign site as far as I'm concerned.
http://www.house.gov/paul/legis_tst.htm (broken link)

I just read a good article on him yesterday: http://www.newswithviews.com/baldwin/baldwin420.htm

There is very little difference between either party these days...
It's time for something better for America.

Don't we ALWAYS get stuck having to vote for whomever we believe is the lesser of the 2 evils?

I'll never do that again!
Either way you end up with evil.

It has been that way for some time now. Whoever has the most money gets the nomination. I really don't agree with that.

Then it's time we good citizens did something to change the system!
For my part, I'm finished with the lesser of 2 evils....

Will it matter in the grand scheme of things?
No, but at least I won't have the shame of having voted for
someone who's evil... Even if they were slightly less evil than the opposing candidate... (Been there, done that, regret it. I QUIT!)
