He "appears" to have the most democratic views on everything... i dont think hell win though since hes just not as known in my opinion... besides i think there are other forces at work in the election...

Ron Paul is for immediate withdrawal of the US from Iraq and gets more support and contributions from military personnel and their families than all other GOP candidates combined. Ron Paul is a loose cannon! He has virtually a zero chance of being the GOP candidate. And he has about as much chance of becoming the President of the US as you do winning the lottery without buying a lottery ticket!

like slavery?wooden teeth and powered wigs?

in 1783 the country was only around for 10 years so maybe they would have thought of stuff like welfare or disasters relief-who knows what they would have thought of later

or i could say if ronny wants 1779 or 1789 back then he wouldn't let people vote who didnt own land , blacks or women indians or blacks to vote?

if he wants to get rid of federal reserve then why arent all his followers running for congress because it was congress who creaed the fed reserve ,not really a president or just woodrow wilson

Well, apparently ABC and Fox will help thwart his possibilities:

ABC, Fox News cutting low-polling presidential candidates out of debates

NEW YORK: ABC and Fox News Channel are narrowing the field of presidential candidates invited to debates this weekend just before the New Hampshire primary, in Fox's case infuriating supporters of Republican Ron Paul.

The roster of participants for ABC's back-to-back, prime-time Republican and Democratic debates Saturday in New Hampshire will be determined after results of Thursday's Iowa caucus become clear.

Fox, meanwhile, has invited five GOP candidates to a forum with Chris Wallace scheduled for its mobile studio in New Hampshire on Sunday. Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, John McCain, Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson received invites, leaving Paul and Duncan Hunter on the sidelines.

B'man you would never vote for Ron Paul.

You can stop the charade.

He is as far from a socialist liberal as one can get.

Do you claim to be God, the Great Carnac? How in reality do you think you have any idea what I would do!?

You are a socialist.

Paul is a libertarian

They have about as much in common as you and I.

Pretty simple.

Probably true. I would not know though.

I just see gray.

Check that rear view mirror of yours. It is not in color. All black and white.
