I agree that Ron Paul should run on some line other than Republican. It would turn my stomach to have to pull any switch on the Party of Nixon, Hunt and Liddy.

I fear that you are right. How did we get into this predicament?

I think that it is time for Ron Paul to explore a third party candidacy. In this way the media will have to pay attention to him, and when his message gets out people will be given a real choice. If he doesn’t win then we know for sure that the people will accept war–especially if none of their loved ones are in harms way–and loss of liberties if the government only promises to care for them; ie give them something.

Good hires! But the good Doc needs to hammer away at the war and why it is unconstitutional and therefore illegal. He also needs to explain where a dollar comes from, and how this has created all the economic problems that we face today. He also needs to get in McNuts’ and Romney’s face and ask them to explain where a dollar comes from. I bet they can’t answer! The last time Ron Paul asked an economic question to the Sen Nutball, he looked like a deer in the headlights. Let’s not forget that the MSM loves McNuts. They didn’t report that a majority of his voters in NH were AGAINST THE WAR! Duh, I guess a little too much Tim Russert, et al, who have adopted the nutball as their personal political pet, clouded the “minds” of these voters.

I agree to an extent–unless Paul plans to run as an independent. But even then, a more outspoken support of impeaching Cheney would have won him votes, even among Republicans, and considerably more attention from the press.

Given that the mainstream media was trying to make him look like a lunatic, how popular and sensible a lunatic he would have looked making impeachment a central item of his campaigning, and a pinch bar to use against the other Republicans in the race.

Don’t understand it–impeaching Cheney (and Bush if possible) follows logically from both his antiwar stance and from his Consitutionalism. Plus, if a third of NH voted for McCain because they thought he was antiwar, why was Paul, with years of good credentials, so reserved?

This is a good start but how about hiring Emmanuel Steward as well?

Dr. Paul is in the 10th round and way behind on points, he needs a knockout to win and so far his campaign has been too f-ing passive. Dr. Paul is the first pres candidate I’ve ever been motivated to donate to but his message is not resonating with the voters and the MSM is all but giving him the finger.

He needs to step out of his comfort zone and be louder and more forceful with his delivery.

If this election was based on substance alone he’d win in a landslide but unfortunately you get point for style and delivery as well.

Go get em Dr. Paul…….please!

What gives? The primaries were rigged,particularly the New Hampshire primary.The Israeli lobby and associates took the Ron Paul campaign threat very seriously and did something about it.Those of us who were active back in the 60’s learned that voting was a waste of time.Nothing has changed.

Yes, intellectually lazy. To take off on Dumbsfeld, you have to get elected by the electorate you have, not the electorate you would wish for.

Largely due to the efforts of the MSM, the issues of empire and foreign policy are now taking a backseat to the economy. What Paul needs to do is hammer away at the relationship between the war and the unfolding economic disaster.

The electorate may be intellectually lazy, but they are not stupid. A careful explanation of the war, mounting deficits, the Federal Reserve first monetizing the war debt, then raising interest rates to prevent further collapse of the dollar, and how this sequence of events lead to the housing bubble and economic meltdown would clear everyone’s heads.

It’s the war, stupid!
