Attention Media and GOP: "No one but Paul" POLL ADDED

[Carole]

Most of us will vote on principles of liberty and freedom which we strongly believe in, and no one but Paul will do.

You may choose to play the "Anyone but Obama" game and sell out what you believe in for the lesser of two evils (once again), but for us, it is "No one but Paul"!

Already been telling all my republican friends. I did the same thing last year. I walked out of our local GOP meeting after McCain was nominated. They said "well he is better than Obama".

McCain was as bad as Obama and maybe worse, because like all neocons, you get the same as Obama, but an incremental, lighter version just like we have had for thirty years. Obama uses more force, but neocons use a lighter sneakier version of force.

No one but Paul. As usual I will write him in and we need to let the GOP comprehend that they will get NO help from us for a neocon establishment candidate.

No one but Paul for me ... or perhaps Johnson, if he were nominated.

Other than that, I'll be looking to see if the Libertarians nominate someone half decent this year, instead of an R-lite like Barr *shudder*. If not, probably a write in for Paul.

Someone should just starting chanting this at the next debate and then when everyone else starts in. Think of the drama! It would be like something you would see in a movie.

I think that'd be awesome.

"If you vote, and you elect dishonest incompetent people, and they get into office and screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. YOU caused the problem, YOU voted them in, YOU have no right to complain! I, on the other hand..."



No one but Paul, indeed.

If you consider it, so far only centrists from either party have been allowed to do well in the polls. Bush, Obama, H. Clinton, Romney, Perry - they are basically one and the same individual, give or take relatively minor policy differences on mostly social issues. Someone brought up Obama's Supreme Court picks, but did Bush really do all that well with his?

Vote for what you truly want with the same principle that inspires us about Ron Paul.

No one but Paul.

That's why you'll most likely see Rand Paul endorse the eventual GOP nominee, and he'll most likely win the GOP nomination in 2016 or 2020. You have to play the game in order to have success.

Endorse what? Deficit spending? Overseas agression? The war on drugs (and the tenth amendment)? Fiat currency?

Why would you endorse all those things just to become President?

Will *I* become President if I endorse those things too? What about the others who endorse? No. The sad truth is they get nothing and they lose their principles. A true opposition party could lose 9 out of 10 presidencies and we would still be better off so long as that 10th tore the fuck out of the shit.

If you think Rand Paul or anyone else can succeed as a closet libertarian (or "constiutional conservative"), well, please point to someone else who has won the Presidency with that approach. When Ron Paul wins, the nation will know that it's "for reals"! If a pretender wins, it's a guarantee that the elite will have their hands gripped so tightly on that guy's nuts, that he'll be afraid to so much as veto an unbalanced budget.

Do you really think there is a happy ending in 2016? Or that Rand's docile nature will drown out the crys of "like father, like son" (kook, loser)? Notice how you have to add "or 2020". That is because a RINO/neocon/TC-approved candidate will piss in the well of freedom for 8 more years! One of the reasons no Republican had a good shot in 2008 was because of the last Compromiser in Chief. 2000 begot 2012. 2012 will beget 2024. Fuck that shit! This is why people hate politics. A few assholes get endoresed and a quarter century is pissed away like nothing. So we can watch Randall get his shiny teeth kicked in?

PAUL OR NOTHING!

So true. Good thread so bump.

I would amend that chant to "Paul or Nothing"

 

[ericams2786]

No one but Paul!!!

If the establishment GOP think we are kidding, just wait until election day 2012, their base will be depleted by us Paulians who decide to stay home. F*ck the media, f*ck the GOP for ignoring, marginalizing, and scoffing at Ron Paul, the only true conservative and statesmen left in the GOP. If it is party over country for them, fine, its country over caring if Obama gets a second term or not for us!

President Paul, President Paul!

Damn right, no one but Paul.

I think this idea, and this thread, are bad ideas. There are those trying to say it is ok to marginalize Ron because we 'aren't real republicans'. Each of us are individuals, and depending on who is the nominee we will individually decide to vote for that person or not. I can understand hurt feelings that Cain's win yesterday got media coverage Rons wins never get (including the one last weekend at the California statewide GOP straw poll). But that was yesterday, and bumping this constantly is a very in your face, and can create blowback, imho. Ron is working very hard INSIDE the GOP, and if picked up, this will make it that much harder for him.

Some of those on this thread tend to want to drive a wedge between Ron Paul supporters and the GOP in any event, but others kind of surprise me.
