Ron Paul Can Win The Presidency
I must admit that I hate modern politics. I find it much more pleasing to read the works and understand concepts of yesterday than to be gobbled up by the useless media, emphasis on emotion, and a complete disdain for any of the issues. I expect to hear more of the truth when watching Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer this year that I would from the television media. It could be my unique situation (I haven’t watched the news in my own home in probably 5 years), but when I do watch the news, I find that something just doesn’t make sense.
Here’s the way I see it. From time to time there will be a candidate that maybe has something to say besides (switch voice to sound like royalty) “This suit is expensive. My fake smile is incredible”. When that person speaks up with real substance, some people jump up and say “He makes too much sense to win”. I realize this person is just venting their frustration with the peers that will be voting along side them. However, I think that we do nothing but throw a wrench into the system and derail the future of the country when we use the old cliché “throwing our vote away”.
I would love to know just how many voters out there use “strategy” with their vote. How well has that really worked out for you? Maybe I’m thinking as an idealist, but for the first time in my adult life, I feel like there is a presidential candidate who has views based on solid logic. I am 100% blown away by Ron Paul’s ideas and message. Ron Paul’s views actually incorporate history, actual data, and illustrate that he has bothered to learn from past mistakes. So, to me he is 100,000 times the better candidate. I will ALWAYS vote for the best candidate. (In most elections, candidates are all tied for last place.)
There will always be those who don’t want to “throw their vote away”, but if people voted for who they actually wanted to win, I think it would become more obvious that voting for the candidate you actually want to win IS NOT throwing your vote away. It’s the best investment you could possibly make. The only way to shake up the ineffective two party, two idea system is for the people who want change to vote for change. It’s as simple as that. I think we’ll have more and more converts to a multi-party, multi-idea system as more people stand up and illustrate that the candidate with the best ideas CAN win.
I see it all the time with my recording studio business. Many bands and artists are trying to create a recording that will be appreciated by the fans. In most cases, the bands who do what they want are the most successful. Trying to second guess what the public is going to want is a method that almost never works.
There is an enormous difference between voting for who you like and voting for who you think will win. The first is an effective election. The second is a distorted acid trip that ends up with artificial results that possibly no one wanted. Have the balls to vote for who you actually want to win!
Worst Case
Let’s assume that by voting for your favorite candidate, your guy doesn’t win. We’ve all voted for presidents who didn’t win. We’ve all voted for presidents who DID win and we later regretted voting for them. It’s not the end of the world. However, even if Ron Paul doesn’t win, it’s clear that he is the guy that is pushing for the constitution, for non-intervention, and for a balanced budget. I think by voting for Ron Paul, we are voting on principles.
If enough people take notice that there is a very large demographic of votes who are for the Ron Paul principles, we will encourage more people to vote for these ideas in the next election. We’ll inspire more people to run for office with these ideas. We’ll put the media in a position where they can’t ignore these ideas any longer.
I’ll gladly vote for the Ron Paul candidate each and every time. Eventually, enough people who can actually think will vote for the Ron Paul candidate that the bandwagon will jump in.

I’m sickened by:
The same damn politician commercials that have played for at least the last 20 years. I remember telling my Grandpa when I was probably just 10 years old. “These are the same commercials as last year and the year before that. Why don’t they have something new to say?”.
Every presidential candidate stands up at the podium with his pretty hair cut and is clearly doing nothing more than letting the American people hear what they want to hear. This facade that he puts on has nothing to do with what he really thinks or how he will really react to tough situations. In fact, most candidates don’t even really have a position.
Why does every candidate but Ron Paul doing their best to follow the precedent of Goering. (Read about Goering in Albert Speer’s “Inside The Third Reich” and you’ll see the preset politician I’m mentioning)
Why do you hear laughing when Ron Paul mentions the constitution? Why aren’t all the ethnocentric retards screaming and yelling?
The sickening level of blind ethnocentrism that exists by the voting public who wouldn’t know what America was really about even if they could read. (Ethnocentrism is the notion that one country is not only the best country, but it’s the center of the universe. One could say it’s like saying “America’s shit don’t stick”.) An idiot politician was outraged when Ron Paul suggested that it may anger a person in a foreign when America invades that person’s country. Is Mr . Idiot politician brain dead? If we were bombed by another country, I think we would be pissed. Why is it so difficult to understand that the terrorists of 911 were just as pissed at the US as the US has been pissed at the terrorists?
Every president following FDR has had absolutely no interest in learning from the mistakes of the previous presidents. (Eisenhower is an exception).
Nixon was elected because he had a “secret plan to get us out of Vietnam”. Do you want to know why the plan was “secret”? He DIDN’T HAVE A PLAN!!! The US ate it up. At least I wasn’t born yet. I can’t ima
