Online gamblers and dating sites, those who oppose modem taxes and online sales taxes, those who oppose the Surveilance State in all its forms, the anti-U.N. folks, closed-borders folks, pro-gun folk, medical marijuana advocates, small-government/lower-taxes folk of al stripes, goldbugs who want to see real gold currency return to compete with paper money... these are the kind of supporters Ron Paul has.
Many post scornfully on these threads about Ron Paul's position on Iraq. What they find it hard to grasp, apparently, is there are a sizable number of people (perhaps even voters) who care rather passionately about just a single issue or just a few issues. And Ron Paul has a lot of these diverse single-issue groups supporting him. I don't think anyone could list them all because Ron Paul has said NO! to a lot of things over the years. LOL.
Some will say you can't form a political movement from groups of single-issue voters. But the reason that RP can do this is because he favors smaller government and more liberty in every case and this is precisely why he is so fittingly titled "Dr. No". And when he votes no on these bills, he often writes a piece or speaks in the well of the House to these issues and these voter groups, often the only one in Congress who speaks and votes to defend their Liberty against Big Government. So his cause is inevitably pro-liberty and small-government and, therefore, a genuinely conservative candidacy, regardless of any ongoing Wilsonian adventure the D.C. establishment has embarked upon across The Pond.
So for all of you who don't understand how Ron Paul has any support at all, look at just this one website owner and how he became a Friend Of Ron because of Big Government prying its way into his online business.

Good find. I think it can happen! And your rant is well done, also. Nice work.
Well, if “The Stranger” endorses him, that’s good enough for me. Gawd almighty.
the scariest thing about ron paul are his supporters. who are these nut cases?
“What they find it hard to grasp, apparently, is there are a sizable number of people (perhaps even voters) who care rather passionately about just a single issue or just a few issues.”
I find it hard to grasp that 23% of registered voters got our current president in office. 22% voted for Kerry and that leaves around 50% that didn’t vote at all.
