"He is certainly interesting for his Barry Goldwater approach -- the pre-William F. Buckley, Jerry Falwell, Ronald Reagan conservative. If nothing else he is ideologically pure; a political doppelgänger of the Tea Party faithful, many of which, if under random doses of sodium pentathol would have to admit Gingrich and are closer to Barack Obama than anything they sent to congress last year. While the two frontrunners have changed positions on key conservative tenets daily, Paul has been spouting his unflinching rhetoric for decades."

You are riding a dead horse, Jes.

Your 77 year old hero is not going anywhere but back to texas.

That's untrue. He's going to win the Iowa caucus.

You have your mind made up. You're being rigid. That is of no intellectual value.

Your rhetoric may have played when Paul was being ignored by the media and at the debates and wasn't raising piles of money.

But now, if you open your eyes, you will see that he is raising millions and millions of dollars, polling in a statistical tie for first in Iowa, just had the most airtime to date in a debate this past Thursday, and is plastered all over TV and the internet.

You can stubbornly deny these facts, but you can't intelligently or honestly deny these facts. I have to wonder why you even bother posting on the subject. Denying reality does not make one loved or respected in most settings.

Stop with the negativity. This is something to be happy about, for once. Come on, guys!!!

I WISH HE COULD USE TV TO COMMUNICATE.

HE CAN'T.

**Obenuearema** · 12-17-2011, 05:51 PM

I WISH HE COULD USE TV TO COMMUNICATE.

HE CAN'T.

He's bad in the debate format. He's a little better when he has more time.

**fuslkdhfma** · 12-17-2011, 05:51 PM

Plus, he does get more applause than anyone, so he must be getting the point across somehow...

Dude.....we're becoming jaded.

It's sad really.

Even me.....I KNOW that there's hope....but it's pretty fucking dark out.

**GrileVege** · 12-17-2011, 05:57 PM

I don't think Paul can win..

I've seen this pattern repeated too many times. He's an internet phenomenon.

**educationonlines** · 12-17-2011, 05:58 PM

Until that potential reality is made manifest, I will believe and I will try with all my heart and soul to get him elected.

There is plenty of time, after the primaries are over, to deal with the rest of this stuff.

**VXHLrsO1** · 12-17-2011, 06:06 PM

Well, we will see..

RON PAUL HAS A RIGID VIEW OF THE ROLE OF DEPARTMENT

OF DEFENSE... MAYBE TOO RIGID....

BUT REGARDLESS OF THAT, IT IS NOT THE DEPARTMENT OF OFFENSE...

OR IT SHOULDN'T BE... EXCEPT IN TIME OF LAWFULLY DECLARED WAR.
