"I got to know President Reagan in 1976 when, as a freshman congressman, I was one of only four members of that body to endorse then-Governor Reagans primary challenge to President Gerald Ford. I had the privilege of serving as the leader of President Reagans Texas delegation at the Republican convention of 1976, where Ronald Reagan almost defeated an incumbent president for his partys nomination. I was one of the millions attracted to Ronald Reagan by his strong support for limited government and the free-market. I felt affinity for a politician who based his conservative philosophy on '...a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom.' I wish more of todays conservative leaders based their philosophy on a desire for less government and more freedom." Ron Paul, Remembering Ronald Reagan
I'm voting for former Vietnam Conflict Flight Surgeon, and Leader of Ronald Reagan's Electoral Delegation from Texas: In 2008, I'm Voting for RON PAUL! |
Let's see if this Article is permitted to remain in the general News/Activism Forum -- because if ANY Republican Candidate can pick up 33% of the Black Vote, that is HUGE, ground-breaking, paradigm-shifting Election News! It would throw the entire Democratic electoral calculus severely out of whack -- and, get this... some of us Conservatives actually want to WIN the 2008 General Election. Imagine that!

Free Republic Ron Paul Ping List: Join/Leave |
Gag.
Winning 33% of the Black Vote would be huge. Absolutely stunning.
The Dems would be running for the exits. It's a fact.
DOUBLE GAG
Is it too late for me to second that gag? If not, I second that gag. All those in favor...
BTW....I’d vote for McCain before I’d vote for paul...
Hell...I’d now That I think about it.....I’d rather vote for hillery.
If Ron Paul is the Republican Nominee, and he picks up 33% of the Black Vote, you can gag all the way to Hitlery's Concession speech.
He wins that vote, but is he strong on the War on Terror? That’s why right now, Paul is just a sideshow and not a real candidate.
Why?
You'd deliberately vote AGAINST a 100% Pro-Life, Pro-Gun Rights, Pro-Borders, Pro-Capitalism old-school Reagan Republican?
In favor of Hillary?
Why?
If my pessimism is justified and come on: In the long dark watches of the night, you know it is the only set of candidates worth our scrutiny are the Democrats. For a Republican to win in 08, hes going to have to be a credibly anti-war Republican. ~~ John Derbyshire, National Review
News flash, kemosabe... some of us want to WIN the 2008 General Election.
Perhaps you can explain to us what this Old School Reganite Republican’s views on Grenada are.
You are full force tonight. Thanks for the pings. Glad to have you back up and running.
These (pathetic) attempts to make Ron Paul appear to be gaining ground are getting funnier by the day.
“Given the inefficiencies of what DC laughingly calls the criminal justice system, I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal.”

Huh?
As far as I'm aware, Ron Paul has never repudiated the Monroe Doctrine regarding foreign adventurism in the Western Hemisphere. If he has done so, could you cite the source?
Ron Paul won’t get 33% of those who vote from the 10% segment of our populace that is Black. His chances of getting the nomination are about equal to that of Charlie Brown getting it. Oh I forgot, Charlie Brown is dead. Oops, he was never alive. Perhaps that’s Ron’s problem too. Because politcally, Presidentially, he might just as well be.
About 90% of the Republican Party would rather go fishing than vote for a guy who shares Osama Bin Laden’s deepest desires of the U.S. in Iraq.
We’re going to win, not pull out.
Bull -—t! If we can’t go after terrorists, we sure as hell can’t go after anyone who hasn’t fired a shot.
LMAO, at least you folks are consistant. A laugh a minute 24 hours a day...
"The aim of every State, as it stomps and stumbles along its way toward totalitarianism, is to MAKE EVERYONE A CRIMINAL." -- David Lemmon
In that context, can you really blame the 33% of Black Voters who are now supporting Ron Paul against the encroachment of Big Government?
