Today Ron Paul won the Manchester, NH GOP straw poll with 66% of the vote. There have been 3 straw polls here in NH and Dr. Paul has DOMINATED all 3 of them.
We did a 5 hour (?!?!) sign wave today in downtown Manchester NH and the support was awesome. So many young people are getting involved in our movement, and so many more are getting turned on to conservative values of fiscal restraint and individual liberty. Young people are distrustful of the establishment and are turning more and more to the internet and alternative news sources for their info. This has led them to Dr. Paul, who has exposed them to our Republican message! NO LONGER IS IT WEIRD TO BE YOUNG AND CONSERVATIVE. An old timer stopped me on the street today to thank me for coming out and spreading the word for Republicans. He could not believe how many dedicated, motivated young Republicans we have attracted to our cause. He said he remembered the Reagan Revolution and was glad that a whole new generation of young people were involved in the Ron Paul Revolution!
It is happening. Even people who thought they were Democrats are waking up, hearing our message of Freedom, Liberty, Small Government, Fiscal Restraint, and are realizing... HEY I’M A CONSERVATIVE! I didn’t read the thread but I’m sure there are posts saying “sure all the fags in San Francisco love Ron Paul” or “those dirty hippies in Seattle are idiots for Ron Paul” but if this is the big tent party, and we are going to win the LONG TERM BATTLE FOR AMERICAN LIBERTY, you had all better wake up, or suffer under the same big government statists that got us where we are today.
Or we can move forward in the American Experiment and introduce a whole new generation of youth to freedom and liberty, and Republican ideals.
It's not just the campaign's excellent fund-raising that's so encouraging. It's having people like you who are willing to sacrifice so much time to get the message out. No other candidate has as many volunteers, and none has any that are so enthusiastic. In spite of all the obstacles, the message can get out. Thank you for all your hard work.
