Yes, with a total of 9,600 votes...he is untouchable
I feel really sad for all the Paul supporters...he will not get the GOP nomination.

Ron Paul is not part of the "establishment" is the reason why the bought Republicans do not want him. He would bring about the change we need to get the banking and financial system in order in this country and they don't want that because they stand to lose too much power and $$$!

So how exactly do they rig the elections or are you just stating this based on no fact whatsoever?
I'd be very interested to know how they do it.

Actually he may propose it but he would get absolutely nothing past Congress so it's doubtful he would ever get a single piece of legislation done. He would bring very little change as nobody really agrees with him on most issues.

I'm just saying that according to his numbers last time he ran that most people do not agree with him. If I remember correctly didn't he break records for raising funds through the internet or something also yet it didn't mean much when all was said and done.
That's not my view those are just facts.

Does anyone else realize Ron Paul is not who they think he is? Christmas in a sidecart! If you are considered for President, you ain't a good guy and you have shown a willingness to play ball...

Call it whatever you will but I didn't invent the numbers. I'm just not seeing why he will perform any better this time than he did last time when his message hasn't changed. Obviously he did not resonate with more than about 3% in his last bid for President and even with the economy how it is I don't see anything he's doing different to change that result.
