^^ RP owns the future
If RP would just come to understand that he's better suited as an idea person than an actual political figurehead, he'd become very powerful. If someone here knows him or any of his aides, please inform him of this. kthxbai
Get busy living

Imagine the GOP debates without Ron Paul. Not sure what would of been worse, that or watching Al sharpton's tv show.

Once you "get" what it's about, you're a liberty supporter for life. So these young supporters aren't going to fade away.

Exactly. In the meantime, Rick Santorum is busy being a true conservative as he won't even acknowledge the planet Uranus.

Thank you leno, lol

Where is Ron Paul? He's the one candidate who has won not a single primary or caucus. Congrats on falling far short of Ross Perot.
Look where Ron Paul started before his '08 campaign. Look where he is now. The goal was to proliferate the freedom movement - the election was just a way to do that, and it has been a huge success at that. As a result, Ron Paul has captured a massive proportion of the youth vote. Since young people are the future, the libertarian vote will dramatically rise proportionately in the future. That is the point, congrats on missing it.

And gtfo with this Ross Perot BS.

A massive proportion of the youth vote? http://www.iop.harvard.edu/Research-Publications/Survey/Fall-2011-Survey

Young voters, according to harvard, are more likely to vote for Romney than Paul. It just seems pretty clear young voters for Paul are more inclined to show up for primaries because, you know, they don't really matter as Romney has been a lock for months.

Good news is, RP people are snapping all the delegates in the caucuses.

On top of all the fraud against ron paul that was caught on tape.

 

Young people also voted for Obama overwhelmingly in 2008. Does that mean the future is replete with left-wing 40-year-old voters? Same thing with McGovern. How the youth vote says absolutely nothing about how they will vote in 20 years when they have real jobs, a wife and 2 kids.

Sorry the facts about Ron Paul's utterly failed candidacy don't match with your delusional narrative that somehow he has been successful and/or that he is going to pick up a bunch of delegates. Ron Paul hasn't won a SINGLE primary or caucus and hasn't come even close in the vast majority of them. His ridiculous message about a gold standard and about foreign policy has been soundly rejected. His message about balanced budgets has been embraced, but it was already being embraced by the movement that is being articulated by Eric Cantor and Paul Ryan.

Those are the young idiots. The brain-dead Occupy crowd. The "hope and change!" crowd. Sure RP has idiotic supporters too - the potheads, the peace-and-love antiwar crowd, but a much larger percentage of his supporters have an good idea of what's going on. Yes, they're idealistic...but the ideas they believe in are detailed policy stances, not merely ideals or emotions.

What chu smokin bro? I want some. How does having a family change the effectiveness of a policy stance? Anyways, Ron's supporters are here to stay, they're not fickle like supporters of Cain, Newt, Michele.

If you don't read others' posts, there's no point in debating. Either that, or please have some reading comprehension.

What I SAID WAS, the goal of Paul's campaigns, his entire career even, has been to proliferate the liberty movement. Sure, it became about the election for a while in late 2011/early 2012, especially when it looked like he might win Iowa. But other than that brief rise, RP's campaigns have been about spreading a message. Who the hell had ever even heard of RP before 2008, other than people who really follow politics? Now he's got a hard chunk of the public's support. And it's a consistent support - not the boom bust of other Romney alternatives. Ron's supporters are here to stay.

It's like when Mike Jones got big - back then, didn't want me, now I'm hot they all on me. Mike Jones. Who??? MIKE JONES. Who?!?!?!

What's ridiculous is a federal reserve system that CREATES unsustainable booms beyond equilibrium output, which are, surprise, followed by busts. The gold standard is ridiculous? I guess the industrial revolution didn't happen either. The US Founders, when creating the constitution, didn't even TALK about fiat currency because the idea was so ridiculous. It's never been sustainable in history, but gold has always retained value. Anyways, the gold vs fiat system argument is to expansive for here, I'll admit that.

Ridiculous foreign policy? I guess the majority of American people are ridiculous for not supporting the Iraq and Afgan wars. Our foreign policy is unsustainable.

Paul Ryan's budget is a joke. Cuts nothing. Not saying anything Ron Paul wants will be passed, though...at least not now, and not by choice...but when we go bankrupt, everything will be on the table.

VTech, you need 2 turn yo swag on, bro.

 

Swagon, do you have trouble reading, or are you so obtuse you don't understand that the demographics of those voting in republican primaries is so different from federal elections that out makes the data utterly meaningless. Your extrapolation that young people must be behind him because of that exit poll is either insincere or an indication you are stupid.

I wasn't talking about general elections. If I was, I was off course.

The exit polls certainly don't prove anything with certainty. They just support the idea that Ron Paul has strong youth support. That's all gucci mayne, ight?

I liked the ad, but isn't such a freaking strong country twang going to seem a little condescending to some Texans?

A little too much country, not all of us ride horses to work.
