EXETER, N.H. -- Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, officially entered the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination Friday.
He said, "At this moment I'm officially announcing I am a candidate."
"The time has come around to the point where the people are agreeing with much of what I've been saying for 30 years so I think the time is right," he told ABC's "Good Morning America."
Paul, 75, made the announcement ahead of a rally in Exeter, part of a two-day swing through New Hampshire following a stop in Iowa.
The libertarian, who has already run twice for the presidency in 1988 and 2008, had already formed a presidential exploratory committee, opened an office in Iowa and raised more than a million dollars online on the day of the first Republican presidential debate in South Carolina last week.

No, Ron Paul spoke out his ass about being against the killing of Bin Laden. How does he think that isn’t going to bite him in that same ass.

Gingrich, Ron Paul......now we only need that joke of a candidate Trump and we will have a trifeca fail. Where are the serious candidates?????? I just don’t get the best feeling for 2012. Well you folks said that Obama will lose to a pet goat. I trust you that whoever they put up for Republican Nomination is going to beat Obama. Many here have said that many times over.

One of the most critical elections in over 30 years, and this is what we have to choose from so far.

Ron Paul is a NUT and anyone who supports him is foolish to do so.
