President Paul

Cry for information consolidation.

2007-09-30T01:09:00.000-04:00

OK, I know I went through this before and I still feel the same way. Ron Paul saturation is beginning to hurt his campaign, but there is a new twist that I really did not speak to as much in my previous post.Information saturation may be turning some off to Ron, but it is also eventually finding others that it needs to and having an effect, but there seems to be another problem. I have spoken

What is the root of Ron Paul hate? (part 2)

2007-09-28T22:26:00.001-04:00

OK, I have tried to investigate this before, but I still have no answers. So I will try it again.Let's start with what I am seeing issue-wise; we will look at his presidential campaign later.Ron Paul believes in the following things:Personal BeliefsAbortion is morally wrong.Christianity is his religion.He is personally frugal.He is a doctor and believes that life is precious.Americans have a

Why the labor unions should support Ron Paul.

2007-09-27T20:56:00.000-04:00

The labor unions were created to protect workers from their corporate bosses; ensuring fair wages and working conditions. The Federal government was not nearly as large as it is now and it was not designed to protect workers. So the workers banded together and decided to protect themselves. Just as it should be and coincidentally, just as Dr. Paul suggests America should work.The Federal

I wil try another discussion forum; I love the stuff!

2007-09-26T22:39:00.000-04:00

These forums can be so entertaining and you can learn a lot form them.I will try another without the Ron Paul stigma that seems to scare everyone at Digg away.No one was signed up for my other board and complained that the name meant they would have non-Paul posts deleted.I am not interested in that. Yes, I am a Ron Paul backer, but I want real discussion here. I enjoy it and sometimes it is

Yet another attempt by Giuliani to exploit an American Tragedy.

2007-09-25T21:58:00.000-04:00

Although Rudy denies knowledge or endorsement of his latest fund raising drive, I seriously doubt his disapproval and have seen no statement from the campaign stating so. A group of his supporters are asking people to donate $9.11 to his campaign presumably by the end of this quarter. What a shameless scam!If Rudy thinks this is tasteless, come out and say so. Donate the money to a charity.

Forget Rudy's $9.11 donation; do Ron's $17.76 for freedom!

2007-09-25T21:17:00.000-04:00

I'm looking at the upcoming 2008 Election posts on Digg and Jeff Ready has a great idea! Here is his link: http://jeffready.blogspot.com/2007/09/forget-9-11-think-1776.htmlThis idea is brought to us by the free bumper sticker guy! He is a doing a great service to the campaign with that idea and he came up with another one!Jeff, I gotta hand it to you; that was a great one!So let's put Ron over

Breaking news: Ron Paul takes a dump!!

2007-09-23T22:46:00.000-04:00

I was following a comment on Digg about Dr. Paul and an interesting follow up was posted by Giuliani08:"... I fully expect to see a "Ron Paul takes a dump" spam submission to digg soon."So I couldn't resist! Here it is:Extra!! Extra!! Breaking news from AP...Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul officially took a dump today around 4:30 pm. According to the campaign media relations

New 2008 Presidential Campaign Forum

2007-09-23T21:29:00.000-04:00

I have created a new forum for discussion of the 2008 Presidential Campaign. Everyone can participate and go back and forth on issues, candidates or whatever you want; as long as it pertains to the election.It will work especially well when comments turn into a debate on the social networking sites. So go on over and sign up:2008 Presidential Campaign Discussion

The changing face of the Presidential election.

2007-09-21T22:50:00.000-04:00

I started this as a hit piece, but it kind of morphed into something else. But let's start with:What is Fred doing?He has dodged the debates; he has not appeared at any of them and he had his chances. He is trying to woo the NRA and gun rights advocates, but why would they support him? What has he done to show that he is interested in their cause. On a side note, what the hell does Rudy think

What will it take for Ron Paul to get the nomination?

2007-09-20T21:51:00.000-04:00

So what will it take for him to get the nomination? How many votes will he have to get in the primaries?I looked at the numbers on the FEC website from 1996. I don't think the 2000 numbers are as valid since McCain was really the only legitimate candidate running. The 1996 race seems to be comparable to 2008 since there were more than 2 contenders. Forbes, Dole, Buchanan and even Lamar

Interesting presidential campaign donations for "top tier" candidates.

2007-09-19T22:26:00.001-04:00

I was reading Radar magazine this week ( I think it comes with my Wired mag) and noticed an interesting little piece. About half a page on a Presidential campaign donation experiment.Granted the amounts are small and I am not suggesting any association between the candidates and these donators, but it is kind of funny.The magazine made $5 donation to the Clinton, Romney, Giuliani and Obama

Ron Paul; the last hope for morality in the GOP?

2007-09-18T22:34:00.001-04:00

Is Ron Paul the last GOP candidate that really shows some responsibility?With the latest news on Larry.. and Mark Foley, etc. along with Rudy and his"less than moral majority" ways it is possible that RP is one of the lasthigh profile "clean" GOPers around. Oh yeah, throw in Mitt's flipping andflopping AND his ties to Larry Craig and of course the ever present GW monster.But those heads are

Early Value Voter debate observations.

2007-09-17T21:53:00.000-04:00

I'm watching the Value Voters debate, which uses a different format than the Fox debate and I am amazed by Ron Paul's answers.If you are not familiar with the format, it works like this:Yes or no questions are asked in general to the candidates. They then indicate theiranswer either way with some minutes they can use to address a particular issueif they wanted to do so.So, back to the answers.

John Kerry agrees with Ron Paul on Iraq!

2007-09-16T22:11:00.001-04:00

It may seem incredible, but he does!Let's look at the transcript from Meet The Press, September 16, 2007:MR. RUSSERT: "Let me start with you, Senator McCain. What should be the U.S. strategy in Iraq for the next year?"(After McCain's neo-con regurgitation, which I will not detail here; follow the link.Basically, stay the course, spend the $300 million a day or chaos and genocide....)(But here

Is it time for Ron Paul to organize the grassroots movement?

2007-09-15T23:46:00.001-04:00

I have been observing and participating in the Ron Paul movement for a whileand I have noticed some things that seem to be inhibiting its success.While it is a great thing to see America coming together this way; across party lines,race lines, and most other lines, it may be time for more management of the resources.I have written about the Ron Paul "saturation" of the Internet and possible (

Giuliani's attempt to capitalize on Ron Paul's honesty.

2007-09-12T22:58:00.001-04:00

Looking back on the infamous debate issue where Wendell Goler suggests that Ron Paulthinks we invited the 9/11 attacks, and reading transcript and listening to it onYoutube, I can see better what happened.It does seem to me that Goler really did try to set up Dr. Paul by leading him down thetrail of what he already knew was going to be bait for the other candidates. Bait for themto try to

Simple (and cheap) way to help Ron spread the word.

2007-09-11T23:02:00.001-04:00

I have done this before and almost made it. But that was before my blog andI posted it directly on Digg. But I will try it again.I have created an easy and very cheap pledge on pledgebank.com to postsome Ron Paul campaign signs in your neighborhood. We will start small..Just 25 signs, and I don't mean bug professional signs. I mean get theyard sign from Ron's site or here from my photobucket

Some observations about Ron Paul's appearance on O-Riley's show.

2007-09-10T23:12:00.001-04:00

I am not a regular viewer of Bill's show and I do not pay much attention to him.I know he is a loud mouth who likes to talk about nothing of substance in generaland likes to hear himself talk. He adds little of value to the news since most ofhis presentation is just his opinions... So I guess that is not really news at all..??(Not that Fox news really shows anything of great value and nothing

More ways to get the word out on Ron Paul.

2007-09-10T14:23:00.001-04:00

I was watching football yesterday and it came to me.Why not make a sign and take it to the game? Walk it around bothinside and out. Do you have season tickets ( I can't afford them)?If so, take a sign to every home game and display it.Take one to baseball games if you go. Any where you can get exposureto groups of people. Make one on a bed sheet with some markersfrom your kids' drawers.

I guess more people agree with Ron on Iraq than anyone thought..

2007-09-10T12:07:00.001-04:00

So, what did Ron Paul say at the latest debate?Some quotes before the actual meat of this post:"The people who say there will be a bloodbath are the ones who said it would be acake walk, a slam dunk and that it would be paid for by oil. Why believe them?They've been wrong on everything they said...""Going into Iraq and Afghanistan and threatening Iran is the WORST thing wecan do for our national

Best Ron Paul quotes from the September Republican debate

2007-09-09T00:12:00.001-04:00

I think, as many, that Dr. Paul did very well at this debate. He was handed loaded questions,ridiculed by both the participants and commentators but he handled all of it withgrace and the TRUTH!There were some great quotes from him while all of the other just spewed the same oldneo-con crap that they think everyone wants to hear.Just a few that I thought were so direct and poignant that I cannot

I am now convinced...

2007-09-07T23:53:00.001-04:00

I'll admit; when I first found out Ron Paul was running for the Republicannomination, I thought little of it.I did some research, found a lot to like about him and began backing hiscampaign. Did I think it couldreally happen? No way! I believed George Stephanopoulos when he said Dr.Paul had no chance.I thought he had a sure bet when he said he would wager everything he hadright to Ron's face

Does Ron Paul "saturation" on the Internet hurt his campaign?

2007-09-04T12:45:00.001-04:00

I have been following this phenomenon for about 3 months now.And I have become a real believer in Dr. Paul. I think his ideas and honestyresonate with the American public and are a breath of fresh air in an otherwisestale Washington climate.But I have begun to wonder if his Internet presence has not become a hindranceto the overall campaign. Others are trying to catch up; Barak Obama is
