Fred Thompson, the actor and former Tennessee senator whose flirtation with a presidential bid has frustrated some supporters, will file papers to officially enter the race next Thursday, his campaign manager told key backers this afternoon.

"Fred is definitely is going to make the race," campaign manager Bill Lacy told members of the Thompson campaign's national finance team in a conference call. "We are in this race to win." Lacy said Thompson will also announce his campaign on a webcast next Thursday. After that he is expected to visit Iowa Sept. 7, New Hampshire on Sept. 8 and 9, and South Carolina after that. There will also be events Sept. 13-15 in Florida and Tennessee, Lacy said.

Exactly how many Ron Paul supporters does it take to make “a gaggle?”


Ron Paul IS a gaggle.

You know, one’s face can project a strong indication of the person.

Paul’s projects a strong “impishness”.

(Senator Thompson believes that) “At no time should international institutions be given the authority to tax American citizens, control U.S. soldiers outside our chain of command, prosecute Americans soldiers and citizens, or make laws governing the American people.

Senator Thompson believes our adherence to these principles and priorities will ensure that the United States remains free, strong, and prosperous — a beacon of hope and model for all, and the undisputed leader of the free world.”

Check out http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1889336/posts. This is the most benign RP thread I've been on for a long time. Very curious discussion.
