This is pretty telling of course. Let's you know who the bad people will be supporting in 2012.

Haha, keep it up, red avies.

In fact keep this arrogant mentality going right up until election day 2012 when Dr. Ronald Paul is elected 45th President of the United States.

And America seals its fate of no longer being the most powerful country on the planet.

Thank God. Alleluia. We can be a republic again rather than an empire.

Your bubble will hopefully be popped during the primaries when Paul is a non-factor.

LOL.

Look at all the establishment puppets in this thread scrambling to find any excuse they can to dismiss the only real candidate for the 2012 race, Ron Paul.

Uh-huh. Well, lets say that for the sake of argument that this poll is accurate (it isn't but never mind that)... how does he win the Republican primary as a staunchly anti-war, anti-Patriot Act, anti-drug war candidate? Keep in mind that those are all positions that endear him to me!

Well we need to get all these independents voting in the Republican primaries. And if they live in closed primary states like I do, enrolled at least temporarily to influence the GOP from within.

FiveThirtyEight.com posits that, without Rasmussen's house effect, Obama vs. Paul is more like Obama +10, which is probably closer to the truth.

http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2010/04/romney-not-paul-fares-best-in-12.html

Apparently, it is, for better or worse, Mittens who fares best in 2012 matchups.

Come on, 538's pretty well respected. We're not talking about Daily Kos here.

Obama +10 is ridiculous. Obama's popularity is sinking by the hour.

The election's two years away. Reagan was less popular at this point, for example.

More to the point, (IMO) Paul's philosophy isn't "electable". I know we disagree on that, obviously...

Uh, Paul's philosophy is the only one left untried and untarnished after 12 years of BushBama.

Not to be crass, but they haven't tried, say, fascism, yet but it doesn't mean people want it. It's simple, really.

If you ask someone about "big government", their knee jerk reaction will be that of opposition, but start asking that hypothetical person about highways and Medicare and the Civil Rights Act(s) and their opinion may just change.

Of course we tried fascism. That's what is in power right now.

Paul cannot win. He has absolutely no charisma, comes off as a bit crazy, wants to abolish the federal reserve, is VERY socially conservative at the state level, and has questionable associations with racists and even more so with conspiracy theorists. He can't win more than 15% of the GOP primary electorate.

Sorry, Paul is pretty popular among real independents.

Basically anyone who is not a Republocrat hack likes Ron Paul.

Sure.

The idea the United States is currently under fascist rule is, I've gotta say, downright offensive to people who've lived under, y'know, actual fascist rule.

Offensive to Americans? Barack Obama is a fascist. That's a fact.

Run Paul against Obama and we'll get a replay of Goldwater v. Johnson.

No, we wouldn't.

We'd get a replay of Reagan vs. Carter.

Why are you people even wasting your time with such a ridiculous idea?

Some of us have principles and are willing to work for their advancement, as opposed to accepting whatever we are given by corporate puppet candidates.

Yes, and some of us have more important things to do.

Like posting here, same thing we are doing...?
