Ron Paul joined the republican party because TRADITIONAL republican values align closer with his positions than Democratic.
If you had bothered to even look into his positions or why he joined the republican party, you'd know his policies have nothing to do with Bush Jr.'s 8 destructive years in office. Obama's last 3 years is no different than the 8 before that.
Stop playing left vs right. It is the people vs the entire establishment and Ron Paul is the only one that consistently represents the people and protects the Constitution.

It seems most people treat elections like some trivial game where they would rather vote for the person they think will win, just so they can celebrate the fact they picked the 'winner'.... rather than vote for who upholds their values the most. Very sad. Americans also still have a large appetite for the military and war, that will work against Ron Paul, that same support for the war economy that drives America will ultimately destroy it though.

Here in Ohio, Ron Paul is very popular. In fact it was announced this very morning that Ron Paul had won the Ohio Straw Poll. Most of everyone I know can see through the BS the other candidates are spewing and they know if they vote for anyone else other than Ron Paul we will get the same old politics that got us into the mess we’re in now.
We need change. Not the kind of “change” promised to us in the catch phrase laden Obama campaign of the last election. We now see that many of us were just sucked in by Obama's false message of “hope” and jumped on the bandwagon.
Has Obama's “hope” made your lives any better?
All I can say is: You can hope in one hand and crap in the other and see which one gets full first.
The only “hope” we have now of making our lives any better is a “change” in leadership in Washington.
Our only “hope” for real “change” is Ron Paul.
