To say that Ron Paul can't receive votes from moderates is ignorant because he actually leads all polls regarding democratic votes for republican candidates. Don't believe everything the main stream news tells you, do your own research and actually listen to each candidate speak rather than spread quotes from the news, in the hope to sound "informed". | ||

Anyone with half a brain who has watched the debates knows that Newt is very smart. Additionally, he has an incredible depth of knowledge to go with it. I'm not sure what to say other than "I feel bad for you" if none of this is obvious. | ||

People who think Ron Paul is "crazy" and has "no chance of winning" are eating the mainstream BS. Listen to him speak before you create labels like such. He is the only candidate who sticks to his principles and doesn't just answer questions with empty rhetoric. He is the only candidate who wants to end all the wars and he is the only candidate who actually has a shot against Obama (who must not get re elected).

We have all been hearing him speak. If you look through the thread, there are hundreds of Ron Paul youtube clips. Many of us have also watched the debates. Read the thread before posting. Economist is live blogging again! Let the fun begin. | ||

How many times in this thread have we all read "If you just knew more about Ron Paul's ideas and beliefs you would love him"? People know his stance, and most Americans don't like it, for various reasons. Maybe you shouldn't just assume that everyone is blinded by the media, and consider that maybe there are other people who pay attention too, and have legitimate problems with his stances on issues. | ||

While he is intelligent he does not have our (the citizens') interests at heart and has accepted millions from national banks, who are responsible for the collapse of the world economy. So please, all of those who are planning on voting for Newt Gingrich, do your research! Don't get me wrong. I'm not endorsing Gingrich, and I recognize the problems that he brings as a candidate. | ||

That had me confused for about a minute :/ Anyways, Paul is talking about electability, and how he is getting so much support from younger people. He's now saying that he likely won't run as a 3rd party. EDIT: whoops I guess that isn't necessary  | ||
