What if Ron Paul runs for president on, say, the Constitution Party ticket? Who knows?

I think that question was answered in 1988, Logan 5.

This isnt 1988, in that time unless you happened to come across an article with his name or knew someone strongly affiliated with the Libertarian party you wouldnt even know he existed. In 1992 Perot got 20%, how? media exposure, buying time on TV. You dont have to buy time on TV anymore. The internet is free and people can watch free videos all day and find the media they want to find without being spoon fed what CNN or Foxnews wants them to think.
