As far as young people supporting him, go to your city's local crack pipe supplier and you will see Ron Paul campaign signs and propaganda all over the place. One good example is Central Texas' "Planet K", which are basically head shops and local campaign offices for Ron Paul.
Ron Paul - Islam's Useful idiot in the US House.
My homeschooling friends here in Virginia are into raw milk, unfortunately. I would never touch the stuff, but they think it will cure their tooth decay and immunize them from diseases. They are also against immunizations for the most part.
They would probably put up with legal drugs if they could get their raw milk. Homeschoolers are also into Ron Paul because he’s the only candidate who gives them a shout-out and is offering them $5,000 per child. Money talks.
The Islam issue doesn’t push voters’ buttons. Talking about it as a slam against Ron Paul won’t help. Americans *overwhelmingly* supported the Iraq withdrawal.
If you want a small-government conservative to win, he or she needs to talk small on foreign intervention. It’s not a great political issue among the general public, necessarily. The economy is more important.
