Just because you say it isn’t true, doesn’t make it so. AuntB, can you post the full quote and source link..
Maybe it is like everything else, Paul says something that hurts him so he says something else to try to deflect criticism.. very John Kerry of him.
Okay, here's the official response from the campaign itself:
"Dr. Paul and Rep. Kucinich are friends and there is a lot of mutual respect. They have worked, and will continue to work, together on the ending the war and protecting civil liberties."
"However, Ron wants to substantially cut the size and scope of the federal government. There are too many differences on issues such as taxes and spending to think a joint ticket would be possible."
And Ron Paul NEVER even suggested running with Kucinich. Someone asked Elizabeth Kucinich if Dennis would consider running on a ticket with Paul, and she said yes.
A reporter then asked Paul for his reponse, who said that while he considers Kucinich a collegue and a friend (which other Republican congressmen have said because it's the gentlemanly thing to do, even people here on FR say Kucinich is at least honest) he would not consider running with him in a nicely-worded statement.
So the "Ron Paul wants to run with Kucinich" conspiracy you've been spreading is yet another one what simply made up by angry, paranoid anti-Paul nuts.
Accusing other people of just saying things because they hope they're true? Sounds like you graduated from the Democrat Underground School of Projection.
Do you care to continue simply making things up, or linking to debunked Internet rumors?
And what’s with your crippling obsession with Ron Paul? I’ll be voting for him, but I’d be surprised if he got more than 10% in any state. You might want to consider counseling for your PDS. If you walk into the therapist’s office with a DUer suffering from BDS you can probably split the bill.
Oh, and here is the source link, since you requested one. Your newest nutty conspiracy is just Dennis Kucinich trying to get some newspaper coverage.

QUESTIONER: “Congressman, if you were not running, right now, for office, is there a current candidate that you would identify with most and who would you vote for yourself?”
RP: “... there’s been some that hinted that they might run... that’s Chuck Hagel... I don’t know a lot about his other programs, but because foreign policy to me is so important”
“... on the Democratic side, it just happens that Dennis Kucinich is a good friend of mine”
