A message of hope, from the most outspoken libertarian politician of our times. Please watch these videos, regardless of your party affiliation or beliefs. One cannot deny the truth, and this is the only politician who actually speaks the truth to the public. A man of honor and principle, the only politician in the 2008 presidential race (although he has now lost to John McCain) to have never flip-flopped on any issue. A true gentleman, a man of ideas, a man of conviction and honor. A man of such virtue that could lead armies of fanatical supporters without even asking for this support. He has been shut out by the mainstream American media and viewed as a "kook" for wanting to get out of Iraq (the only anti-war republican). I know these three videos togheter are a good twenty minutes but please take twenty minutes of your time to learn about a man who has given his entire life to the cause of freedom and liberty.
Although he may have lost the presidential election, Paul's campaign has opened a pandora's box. The message of liberty and freedom has been "catching on" (to quote an early New Hampshire advertisement spot from the Ron Paul campaign) in the United States. Regardless of the 10% he got on average, despite finishing second in Louisianna and faring quite well in Montana if my memory serves me right, Ron Paul has touched an entire new generation of internet users. He overwhelmingly won most if not all of the online polls he was included in. His message has been resonating with a young new wave of politically savvy kids who will soon be old enough to vote. His ideals of freedom, his consistent record and his flawless obediance to the American constitution have made him a very popular man with the internet crowd and increasingly offline as well. His honesty and straightforwardness when answering questions made him a smart debater, although the current attack-type format is his main weakness. Congressman Paul is now 72 and the odds that he will run again in 2012 are very slim, but beyond the election, the message that he carried has left it's mark. All around the country grassroots campaigners have switched on local mode and are now trying to get what they call "Ron Paul Republicans" elected in congressional seats and in some cases, for Senate bids. What they have been trying to do is nothing less than taking over the GOP step by step, to ensure that the next candidate of the newly formed "freedom movement", gets a fair shake in his bid for the presidency.
It is my hope to see RandPaul2012.com go up some day, but realistically, Dr Paul's son would need more exposure before this is attempted. Running as a governor or senator would help him greatly, since experience matters alot in presidential elections. Until then, the Ron Paul Revolution will keep slowly trying to move the GOP around
