    Help me show how Paul's economic views would help poorer people

    Paul's voter demographic actually skews lower income. If that's due to his higher percentage of youth votes, I'm not sure. I haven't really crunched the numbers.

    Gasoline the reality for most folks

    Frightening considering how people drive in poor weather. I do not want to see skinny tires on the freeways in California...the difference in stopping distance alone is worth the MPG hit.

    Gasoline the reality for most folks

    Yep...the average commute distance in Britain, for example, is less than half of what it is in California, and they have mass transit. Taking a bus to work would take me 2-3 hours.

    Gasoline the reality for most folks

    As of Jan 2012 the average hourly wage was 23.29... so 15.6% http://www.bls.gov/eag/eag.us.htm#eag_us1.f.P

    What do I have to do to get through to the younger generation?

    To be fair, the entire voting system we have constructed is fundamentally flawed and they are right to some degree to be cynical.

    Obama Wants Cheaper Pennies & Nickles / State Gold Rush (CNN Money)

    Totals from Washington county

    I'm not so good at addition. What does this put totals at? Granted, I'm not sure which numbers to go by. I've seen like 30 different vote totals for the state.

    A view of Ron Paul forums

    Honestly, this is probably the most pro-'newbie' forum on the internet--at least of the ones I visit. Considering it's the internet, the majority of posters are unbelievably respectful.

    Counter this question about Regulations

    Honestly, I do believe when you start discussing health and safety, it's by far the weakest point of the libertarian and free market philosophies. You can easily say the market will correct, but if it's your child that is dead, it's a different story. I still believe it's probably the BEST...

    Which Non-Paul GOP Candidate Still Running Would Be The Most Offensive 2012 Nominee?

    In terms of foreign and fiscal policy, Gingrich. In terms of social issues and liberty, Rick "I watch you in your bedroom" Santorum.
