I don’t care why he’s running. I just wish his supporters would stop spamming my Freepmail with his garbage!

Maybe Paul wants to campaign against foreign aid because no one else will.

If he doesn’t run, he has a n=0% chance at the nomination. If he runs, he has a n>0% chance. That simple.

For the same reason Ernest T. Bass kept throwing rocks at Mayberry’s windows. He’s a crazy Pest that won’t go away.

5. More bookings on the Alex Jones Show.
4. More opportunities to sell “The Truth is Out There” t-shirts and bumper stickers.
3. Enjoys the fun of watching beltway establishment Republicans break out in a cold sweat.
2. Great PR for the upcoming Paul-Kucinich Nationwide Standup Tour in 2013.

...and the #1 reason Ron Paul is running for President again...

1. The Groupies, Man.....the Groupies!

I would bet on reasons 1 through 4, as I do no think that he will actually be elected.

A “no-lose” position? Wrong. He’s not going to win...ever. His candidacy just takes votes away and gives them to Obama. But Libertarians never understand that. It’s pure ego for him. Vegas won’t give odds on this.

After you've run a few times, not running is harder than running ...

At least that's what Harold Stassen told me ...

He died ten years ago and may still be on the ballot in 2011 ...

Harold also says that support for liberal Republicans is strongest among Necro-Americans ...
