I'm very confused about Bob Barr, everyone is showing disdain for him but no one can give me a real reason for why I shouldn't vote for him. I want vote for the candidate that comes closest to where I stand on the issues, and based on what Bob Barr is saying in comparison to other candidates...

Oh wow, they are. That's weird.

I'm sure this is something his supporters are used to by now, but I just wanted to point out that in every primary while they avoided saying his name, they at least displayed his percentage of the vote. Now I'm looking for his numbers and his name isn't even on the bottom of the screen. I...

I honestly thought Hillary would win too... but it's still too early to call. I prefer Obama over Hillary, David Friedman even said he was more "libertarian" than her, and while he's for the welfare state he seems like a responsible person, unlike Hillary who's just ambitious really.

I just had to share this... it isn't a very common but on occasion I'll hear someone point out Ron Paul's position on the gold standard (which is often simplified anyway) and point out that he has invested in gold... Like in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4QbJ3phEYs Is it just me...

You should listen to the rest of the audio, the host gets really angry: http://youtube.com/watch?v=6lAFfLy05_Y

This is old, it was on the Penn and Teller show before that focus group discredited Ron Paul. There aren't defending Ron Paul (although it would be cool if they did, I like Penn and Teller), they're just attacking Luntz,

I'm not sure if anyone saw it, I assumed someone would catch it but I didn't see anything here about it. Earlier today Chris Matthews reported on those newsletters with the racist content. It was really scewed if you saw it... Anyway, this is the first time I've seen this in the media, and I'm...

Ah! Cool website, thanks. So the party change deadline is twelve days from now at the end of this month, and the election as at the end of January. Great!

I see, thank you.

I'm just curious, whenever he is asked if he'll run again in the general election as an independent or under the Libertarian ticket in the future, he responds with a very adamant negative. That's fair I guess, but why doesn't he want to do that you think?

I'm afraid I may have procrastinated too long, I hope someone here can help me. I need to re-register as a Republican so I can vote for Ron Paul, and I need to know if it's too late to do that. I also want to know when the actually election is so I can vote, it would suck if I missed that. I...

Have you watched AFTF? The IRS is literally a criminal organization. They are capable of more and do more than just "collect taxes."

Agreed. I wasn't even thinking about Ron Paul after 2008. What I would like to see though is not just Ron Paul becoming well known and respected, I want to start seeing people who think like Ron Paul (limited government, free markets, individual liberty, etc) become more accepted into the...

That's the only hard part. If Ron Paul wins the general election the only thing we have to worry about is Obama (the only worthy contender), and the ruthless smear campaigns.
