Ramsey, who is just a few credits shy of his bachelor's degree, won't say how much he is willing to put into his SuperPAC ("how much does freedom cost?") and adds that he sees his contribution as an "angel investment" in a "humanitarian effort."
With Ron Paul effectively out of the presidential race — and nearing the end of his career in politics — his army of young acolytes are taking on the mantle of the Revolution, turning their attention to down-ballot races in a quiet quest to take over the Republican party.
At the vanguard of this Revolution 2.0 is John Ramsey, a 21-year-old Texas millionaire who used $1.3 million of his inheritance to form a SuperPAC that backs so-called "Liberty candidates" who adhere to Paul's small government, free-market, anti-interventionist, and pro-civil liberty message.

All I'm going to say is wow. It seems for the first time that people are actually putting their money towards good use instead of for greed. It sure seems like Ron Paul is making his message clear, to have a young person to be able to invest million dollars towards his New Revolution.

I thought you guys would enjoy this. I'm Canadian, and I'm actually rooting for Ron Paul for the sake of all Americans.

So in other words, Dr. Paul is sucking money away from a young man with the intention of lining his own pockets?
Oh, the irony.

It makes me sick, just to think about all the rich people out there; Bill Gates for example. Not doing anything with their money other then getting themselves richer because of their greed. They ought to put money towards research that can actually help change the lives of millions of people.

I just wanted to let you know that you are highly misinformed about Bill Gates if you think he just sits around with his loads of dosh. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have donated over $33.5 billion since 1996. That is over have half of his current net worth.
They have helped many across the world focusing on Education, Healthcare, and poverty, including in the USA. They have helped deliver vaccines to more than 250,000,000 children in poor countries, preventing an estimated five million deaths.
Not to mention the vast majority of his fortune when he dies is going to the foundation to help charities and the the unhealthy around the world. We're talking about a good $60 billion as of right now, which is highly likely to increase as he gets older, going to help those around the world. Bill Gates is an amazing philanthropist.

A former Ron Paul campaign volunteer, Ramsey told Business Insider that he was disillusioned by Paul's disappointing — and somewhat fishy — losses in this year's Iowa and Maine caucuses, and wanted to form a group that would go beyond grassroots organizing and actually win elections. He teamed up with fellow Paul volunteer Preston Bates, a 23-year-old former Democratic operative, and christened the new SuperPAC Liberty For All.

As much as we all like Ron Paul we all knew he would not win, the money that owns the U.S. government is against him which guarantees he will fail.
Obama makes the perfect, brainless monkey puppet who enjoys bootlicking his masters in the Middle East the Muslim Brotherhood. It's painfully obvious he is working to further middle eastern islamic interests and they have more than enough money to pad his bank account in Kenya.
I predict Obama will win another 4 years, because whats left of the U.S. has to be totally destroyed before Sharia Law can be implemented. He needs another 4 years to finish killing the first and second amendments and then the freedom of religion in order for Sharia to be forced on all americans.
Think it will not happen? Watch him win another 4 years and the black community will vote for him because theyre thrilled to have a "african" american in office because it's the closest they have been able to get since Colin Powell (who would have been better imo than the clowns they had in the oval office the last 12 years)edit on 30-5-2012 by lonewolf19792000 because: (no reason given)edit on 30-5-2012 by lonewolf19792000 because: (no reason given)
