i signed the petition, but is there any point?
is the petition even sent out?
i don't even know if anyone will read it, besides those who sign it.

Paul definetely is getting a lot of support these days. what was funny was on Fox News after the debate they were going off on how terrible Paul is, and then he was #1 on their poll for who won the election. ha!

Paul has been winning all of these polls. The media attribute it to hardcore Paul fans dialing numbers and voting multiple times, but this is ridiculous. Paul hasn't had time to create a large support group like this. The people voting for him are the disillusioned republicans who are sick and tired of the chickenhawks in Washington sacrificing our troops in a lost cause.

Every other republican candidate has no intention on getting us out of Iraq, and certainly has no plan to reduce the insane growth of government we've seen under Bush Jr. Voters want a drastic change in Washington, and Ron Paul is the only one offering it.

Even if Ron is popular among people, sadly that isn't all it takes in this sad excuse of a democracy.

Wow very nice video.

I am impressed with his ability to give concise answers, especially seeing as the CNN guy is obviously rushing him, and also he addressed each question and didn't evade anything. Good for him!

Frankly after reading some more about this guy my interest has cooled considerably. His positions on taxes/IRS and the UN are a bit freaky, to say the least. I have to say I've come to the same conclusion as 'spiflicated' -

awww come on man...You are absolutely right on fighting the aggressive military policy and tyrannical social policies of the right...Why not take the natural extension of this philosophy to fight the tyrannical economic policies of the left?

More liberty is always good. In a free society, government should stay out of our personal lives AND out of our wallets.
