My candidate can’t take in-kind contributions without reporting them (nor would he), so why is Congressman Ron Paul above the law? That’s all I’m saying. Don’t be paranoid without cause, okay?

Dr. Paul's volunteers are independent from his official campaign. They make their own signs, spend their own money and time themselves. So what is an "in-kind" contribution? Why, it's a non-cash item or service from the campaign that can be given a cash value. Read: Paul's campaign doesn't give his volunteers SQUAT. They do their own thing. So there is no FEC violation or Paul skirting the law.

That’s all I’m saying. Don’t be paranoid without cause, okay?

You're the one that posted the thread. It's not Paul's fault that he has the biggest grassroots network out of all of the candidates. Don't hate the playa, hate the game.
