I posted this article, because nobody else had yet, and it articulated the concerns I have recently felt about Dr. Paul. If it makes you sleep better at night thinking I am a paid shill, then I welcome you to indulge that fantasy. However, the truth is that I am the very kind of person (multiplied by millions) that could put Dr. Paul in the White House but issues like this are huge hurdles. Cast me and others with similar concerns to the side if you will, but be aware that by doing so, it might be casting aside the campaign. I apologize if this came across as too personal, but I am not used to be called "The Man". It stings a little.

Ron Paul will never ever ever be the US President. The Electoral College picks the US PResident, not the people.
The Electoral College is made up of America's Royal Families. They will pick who will help them make money.
You've got a better chance of seeing a UFO land in your yard tomorrow and watch 2 little green men steal your newspaper and fly away in their UFO....than Ron Paul ever being US President.
You've got a better chance of the Jewish religion saying ANYBODY can join their religion tomorrow....than Ron Paul becoming US PResident.
There's a better chance of American Indians revolting and starting a new War to kick the white man off their land tomorrow.....than Ron Paul ever becoming the US PResident.
Even if 99% of America voted for Ron Paul to be US PResident, he would NEVER be PResident because the Electoral College picks the US PResident.

People have known for decades that Ron Paul is a racist. I'm astonished that so many are now just finding out about it. It's like everyone knowing that Santa wears read and then you find a bunch of people that didn't know.
Yes. Ron Paul is a bigot. Yes. The sun shines. Next.

Well, I hope the anti-Ron Paul Obamites have prepared a defense for his Marxist Liberation Theology pals and his long term attendance at the racist Rev Wrights church.

By the time Paul's GOP opponents are done with him the Obama campaign won't have to do much of anything in the miraculous event of a Paul nomination.
And I would guess Obama and company would be tickled pink to have Paul as the nominee. They would be able to run to the right of him on a number of issues.

Hey, Del.....the last time I checked, this is America. Individuals AND ORGANIZATIONS are free to support the candidate of their choice. I know this information is a shock to you, but this is how things work. Just because a group with a specific ideology supports a candidate does not mean that candidate supports that group's ideology. NO candidate is obligated to denounce ANY group of American voters that endorses him.

Obama will not run to the right unless it's for show.

And what's not "for show" in a political campaign?
You could expect attacks along the line of "Obama killed bin Laden and helped keep us safe. Paul is an isolationist who would abandon our Israeli allies and allow the North Koreans and Iran free reign..blah blah blah."
Politically speaking is another question.
