yeah we all knew that he got screwed except for the board liberals who don't know anything about what's what outside of their little party they worship. i'm sure guys like chump will come in and say "lol ron paul" but it was pretty obvious what happened. But honestly, now that they've screwed him out of the nomination and he has no shot at winning, I'd still vote for Mitt because otherwise we will be stuck with the kenyan for 4 more years and I can't accept that.

RP :lol
He didn't have prayer to win, he didn't have prayer to even get a plank in the platform.
He got bullied by the Repugs who already have a badly fractured party, they didn't need any RP distraction.
RP people NOT voting of course will strengthen the guarantee of Obama winning, and winning big.

Re: Is this your idea of Democracy?
Boutons, wasn't Ron Paul technically eventually awarded Iowa? Hasn't Iowa always been a solid indicator of what's to come? It was political murder, with the simple minded, short attention span having American voter as the only witness.
Obama won't win big..everyone who's anyone is saying that it will be a nail biter. Ron Paul running third party though WOULD ensure an Obama victory..but don't act like this thing isn't going down to the wire. "Gecko" as you call him hasn't even begun to unload that billion dollars of campaign contributions. Speaking of Wall Street, ironically enough Romney helped turn around some of the very same companies that Obama and his administration were invested in and helped them earn mega profits :lol

Even if you saw it, just not important enough anyway. Yea it was rigged, but it's not important, I get it. It's only important if it's rigged against what you want. Other rigging is ok and can be ignored.
I know you don't mean to but you're making Ron Paul sound like a spineless, self-centered little bitch right now. Whining about Paul being threatened by the Romney camp doesn't make me feel any sympathy for him. If anything I'd be angry at Paul for allowing himself to be bullied like that. If he cared so much about his beliefs he should have given two fucks about his name and legacy and beat Romney's campaign to the punch. You don't need money to grant interviews to all the news outlets out there and give your side of the story of what's going on behind the scenes. He should have been on every damn news show telling the American people how he was threatened and what was GOING TO HAPPEN if he didn't give in to the demands of the Romney campaign. We shouldn't be finding out like this. Instead he caved like a bitch and kept the machine rolling. Fuck him :lol

Another moron proving the point of my thread. The proof is there and you have skipped all through it like everyone else, it was rigged, but it's someone you don't give a shit about so the illegal elections are ok to you, You feel more comfortable about arguing red/blue even though it makes no difference anymore and means nothing.
And you also have no idea what you are talking about and you clearly, (just like Manny and others) have not followed Ron Paul to the point of knowing and understanding him or what has been actually going on. And Ron Paul is no pussy, the pussy's are the ones that were so afraid to let him speak that they had to rig the election. The pussy's are those arguing over red/blue because they are too afraid to look at themselves and admit they are wasting time fighting for evil. RP ran a classy campaign full of facts and no cheap shots or lies or bitching, unlike the other bastards.
You are saying he should have told THIS media here?...... lol

LOL at Ron Paul being called a pussy.... he's been the lone no vote in the House countless times on unconstitutional legislation, he actually has principles and can't be bought by special interests.... the real pussies are spineless flip-floppers like Willard, tbh.....

actually he's been in trouble several times over the years with his district supporters (i was in his district) by not getting enough spending.
his reasoning is that he's bringing back his district taxpayers' money. i think that's reasonable.
that's a district reps job is to represent his/her district.

The earmarks are a symbolic gesture at best, tbh..... he does it to keep SOME money away from the executive branch, and so that constituents can see how their money will be spent.... in fact, he often votes against his own earmarks, tbh...
