the tea party is really bull .....it was, is, a way for the GOP to get the ron paul supporters to vote GOP and not independent or democrat.....think about!
Cheers to the guy who has been advancing a set of ideals for the last forty years. Someone who never sold out to special interests to get elected.
PS: stop trusting the overnight sensations who become rock stars overnight...they got there on someone else's buck, and they dont represent any ideals...they represent a set of special interests.

P.S.
it didn't work on me.
Ron Paul, 40 years of whining, powerlessly, ineffectively, on the margins.
The plutocracy/UCA/VRWC, like any power center, will never give their overwhelmingly power away, while letting American sheeple have just enough consumer to keep them complacent, ignorant, duped, and fat.
America's last hope.
j/K America has no hope
We need a leader who represents a philosophy over a set of interests. That is the only leader who we can trust to make hard decisions. This guy has stuck to his guns. Who else has been on the national scene that long preaching the same message?
The "whining" and ineffectiveness you perceive is the result of a guy who has stuck to his guns over getting into the presidency. If he would have offerred blowjobs to the MIC and Oil industry some time back, we would have seen him as an effective politician?
Wake the up, boutons. You worship perceived strength as much as the right-wing war mongers, you just cant see it.
We need principled statesmen to get us out of this hole. We dont need another round of blowjobs to the upper crust.
This guy has shown to be a guy who believes in the he preaches, and who can be trusted. He has yet to sell his principles to be perceived as "effective."
"This guy has stuck to his guns"
And he's has been and still his firing blanks. If he were having the effects he talks about, the VRWC would destroy his ass. For now and always, they let him run his libertarian mouth because it doesn't touch the VRWC's overwhelming, unchallengeable power.
His supporters were heads at the convention even after their god commanded them not to.
I said it once and I'll say it again, Paul is not electable to the presidency because his visible supporters are loons.
Paul is not electable because he has no wit, charm or charisma. He isnt a movie star, he isnt the "great communicator," he doesnt have perfect hair, he cant charm women into the voting booth, and most of all, he wont tell the voters what they want to hear before giving them the shaft. Because of these things, no one will punch his ticket and bankroll his campaign. Besides that, special interests cant trust him to be a puppet once he gets in.
But his agenda would fix what ails us, and he can be trusted to carry it out.
In an age where voters elect "personalities" that front hidden interests, interests that are getting fatter by the day and that are destroying this country, this guy stands on ideals.
Paul is not electable because the machine wont punch his ticket. Voters mean , as long as they buy bankrolled candidates as the only electable ones.
Hey Ron, rein in your nutbags.
He isn't a either.:
Differ with the analysis?
That was more speech than analysis.
I'm content to stay on the issue that is most easily fixed -- if he chooses to fix it, that is.
He is not electable because he won't listen to lobbyists that pay for elections, not because he isn't right................get your head out of your ass.
he is unelectable because he can't be bought and he won't sell out like the others......and that is a shame.
ron paul needs to lie a little bit until he gets into the presidency.
he will never win when he champions good ideas that the majority of the public sees as radical and doesn't understand how they work. the majority of the public switches channels between Glee, Jersey shore, and a Barrack Obama soundbite on the local news. that's about all the average citizen will know.
if he wants to get elected, he needs to start hiding and lying about some things until he gets into office. i know it's not honorable, but , it's the only way to get anything done in this world.
you can die an honest man and accomplish nothing, and only appreciated years after your death, or be a little dishonest, venture out of your values just until you get into a position of power. then let the good roll out.
No, we don't need more of Paul's elitism. We don't need a philosopher king. We don't need more free-market fundamentalism. We don't need John Galt.
We need a flowering of working class consciousness, more direct democracy and society-wide collective bargaining.
That remains to be seen.
Get rid of the nutbags, then you can cry about something else.
"flowering of working class consciousness, more direct democracy and society-wide collective bargaining."
ain't never gonna happen. The plutocracy has grabbed total control of the economy and the govt, and it won't ever give it back.
The Class War is over, the wealthy class has won. The devastation they have visited on America is a Pax Plutarchia.
And the wealthy class is still "mopping up" any wealth still held by the lower 95%.
Any "fundamentalists democrats" will never get enough funds to beat the $Bs the plutocracy gives to their candidates.
Oh, I agree. We won't see the things I talked about, not in my lifetime at least, maybe ever.
