Another source has come out saying Ron Paul tinkering with 3rd party run.

[Carlybee]

My concern about him running Libertarian is frankly I doubt he would. There is a fundamental difference in the LP's stance on abortion and his stance that he put forward during the campaign. Yes I know he is against the government having a say over it but the LP's stance is more ambivalent. (please let's not trash this thread with a debate on abortion...just a consideration).

 

[No1butPaul]

the people banking backing him just print it. Remember?

Also, this thread is moving towards bashing a faith a number of people here believe in, so let's stop that part.

That's true, but I haven't discussed R$'s faith at all so don't know why you make that statement in response to my comment about burning money (which was in response to an earlier statement saying having a moneybomb pledge was burning $, and makes no sense!) Did I confuse you with that run-on?

Well he was openly pro-life when he ran on the Libertarian ticket in the past. The party's platform was not though.

She was probably referring to my post.

if Ron runs 3rd party i believe that would signify that there is a schism between he and Rand.

No - As Rand stated - just a difference in tactics.

Well, he was the Libertarian candidate for President in 1988, although he remained a Republican, so...

Or just as easily the appearance of schism that each one is "their own man".

Having your cake and eating it too (which I always thought was a really weird saying. Why would you have cake and not be able to eat it?)

Yeah, really no different from Romney agreeing with auditing the Fed and asking Congress to declare war (which are in HIS party's platform). He most certainly will not abide by either.

From what I understand, it's too late to run as an Independent. And the status of write-ins is questionable...I looked it up on Wiki, and there are "citations needed" and a whole lot of confusing information.

It depends on your goal. If your goal isn't to 'make all the ballots' but to get in debates, I am not sure it is. It would at least need to be looked at differently.

me 2. If you're gonna get some cake you damn well had better be able to eat it.

Anyway, I think Ron running will hold Rand back a bit in '16 but frankly im starting to think that Ron is not pleased with the direction that Rand is taking the movement.

Due to high interest, the conference call max occupancy went from 300 to 1000, so the call in number and code has changed.

Changes are in the OP.

No, my first line was in response to you, my second line was in response to a couple of other posters.

 

[wgadget]

Speaking of Rand...Has anyone heard ANYONE on the neocon radio shows discussing his speech? I know I haven't...It's all RUBIO and CHRISTIE.

Bleh.

I don't even hear them talking about Clint Eastwood's speech.

Is it 7:00pm in Alaska yet?

it will be 8pm your time, and also my time. PACIFIC

 

[No1butPaul]

Thanks. I'm just kind of anxiously awaiting!

UGH! - now that it's in an unknown number of places all over facebook... and there is a project post here to spread the original info. Is the project page link modified? If so, it should mostly be OK without having to put in a lot of time correcting things...

[tangent4ronpaul]

OK - URL is good... we will loose sone that jotted down the original info, but most should follow...

Evan Alaska
UPDATE: I had to get a larger conference room -- the limit for the original number was 96 people but over 300 have signed up- now I can accomodate up to 1,000 people.

THE NUMBER HAS CHANGED as of mid-day today.

I spoke with Dr. Paul yesterday about continuing the fight by running on a third party ticket. I want to share what he said to me and let you know what needs to be done to make this happen. It can happen, but it's going to take some work. If you are willing to support this effort, please share
this event and call in:

NOTE the Free Conference Call number and access code has been changed to a new one as of today:

Conference dial-in number: (559) 726-1200

Participant access code: 811476

This is confirmed! - Dr. Paul is thinking about it! It's not a pipe dream!
