Sure they may run a candidate to take away votes from the Republican nominee (especially if that nominee is Ron Paul), but if Dick did his research he'd find out there is pretty much no way they would run Ron Paul as their candidate.

Why do you say that? I don't know enough about it.
 
I highly doubt it... I've on the Americans Elect mailing list, most of the people are more aligned with Buddy Roemer (who is the only person I'm aware of to actually solicit the AE nomination) than Ron Paul. On the listserv there has been discussions of Donalds Trump, Robert Gates, although both of those suggestions met a lot of hostility.

I would put my money on Buddy Roemer getting the AE nomination, although most of them accept this year they won't win, they are merely focusing on building the organization and structure for this to become much bigger in future elections (their focus is on ballot access oand technology right now)

“A not-for-profit organization, called Americans Elect is establishing ballot access in all 50 states for the candidates for president and vice president in 2012 who will be nominated directly by the people in an online nominating process. The sophisticated website of Americans Elect allows registered voters a revolutionary new way to nominate a bipartisan ticket to occupy the White House.” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, December 5 2011

“Americans Elect is the real deal….I hope all will go to AmericansElect.org and sign us as a delegate….it is free and it is freedom.” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, November 12 2011

“Board of Advisors: Lynn Forester de Rothschild” — Americans Elect, July 26 2011

“As for the missing middle, next year will see an innovation. In June 2012, well before the Republican convention in Florida and the Democratic convention in North Carolina, an organisation calling itself “Americans Elect” will hold an online nominating convention of its own. Its plan is not to create a third party but to use the internet to choose a presidential candidate from any party (who will in turn have to pick a running-mate from a different one) and put this non-partisan ticket on the ballot in every state. The outfit has already collected more than 2m of 3m or so signatures it will need to satisfy every state’s ballot requirements.” — The Economist, December 3 2011

““Just for this week, indulge in a fantasy,” writes The Economist. “Everything you think you know about next year’s presidential election in America might be wrong.” — Americans Elect, December 2 2011

“Lady de Rothschild is a director of The Economist Newspaper Limited” — Forbes business profile

“Since June 2002, Lady de Rothschild has been the Chief Executive of E.L. Rothschild LLC, a private investment company with investments in media, information technology, agriculture and real estate. Holdings include The Economist Group” — Bloomberg Link

“Huntsman is the Only Electable Republican” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, December 3 2011

“@JonHuntsman only candidate to seriously consider financial reform and other hard issues RT @Timodc #Q4Jon trending worldwide. Cool stuff!” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, November 29 2011

“As the dust settles, people are finally realizing Jon Huntsman is the only electable GOP candidate.” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, November 8 2011

“I still believe we can get America back to its manufacturing glory, @JonHuntsman shows how” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, November 8 2011

“@JonHuntsman @Jon2012girls picking up steam, will be the only one standing at the end of day watch him on @meetthepress on Sunday” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, November 4 2011

“Jon M. Huntsman Jr. opened his day on Tuesday by formally declaring his candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination. He closed it by accomplishing an equally important task: collecting $1.2 million for his campaign. A dinner in Manhattan, hosted by Lynn Forester de Rothschild, was the venue to kickoff Mr. Huntsman’s fund-raising effort.” — New York Times, June 22 2011

“$5000 to HPAC” [Jon Huntsman leadership committee] — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, June 16 2011

“$0″ — contributions to any other political candidate by Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, 2011

“Many other bipartisan organizations have emerged over the past three years to give support and strength to any qualified independent candidate. No Labels is a political organization of Republicans, Democrats and Independents working on the grassroots level to support bipartisan and pragmatic politicians and polices. The group has 180,000 members and on December 13th is holding an open meeting at the Capital to unveil a comprehensive congressional action plan. Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks, is leading a movement of business leaders and political donors to end the hyper-partisanship in Washington that could be the bedrock of financing for a viable independent, bipartisan, ticket for 2012.” — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, December 5 2011

“…a fantastic presentation given by No Labels and the Comeback America Initiative… — Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, October 5 2011

“No labels, just wealth and power. There is strong speculation that Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, married to Sir Evelyn de Rothschild, head of the richest family on the planet ($21 trillion, former head of NM Rothschild & Sons, the Rothschild bank, and one time director at diamond industry monopolist De Beers), is behind the ‘No Labels’ campaign.” — Thom Hartmann message boards, January 16 2011

[No comment] — No Labels, which has not released the names of its funders.
 
What would be nice, is if they chose a pretty liberal person to draw votes from Obama, then Ron Paul ran on the LP or Independent.

Umm.. Ron Paul is leading the Republican primaries in the first states. What is with you people. Are you shills? An LP run would kill his candidacy and trash his son's political future. It would please some here and piss off the rest of us for dumping our efforts into the garbage. Chill on it already.

Hmmmm
 
ron paul is not going to run third party everyone. He has a son who has a chance of winning the Presidency in 2016 or 2020. Give it up already, we need to win the GOP

Exact. This is the MSM line.

"Ron, you're poised to win Iowa, are a strong second in NH, and have built a nationwide organization with plenty of money and fundraising ability; when are you going to drop out and run as an independent?"

Lol, give it a rest.

I think their plan is the exact opposite. Run a candidate who's conservative to prevent the liberty candidate from winning. The establishment has Obama on a leash. They're rather keep that going.

Serious question now... Does anyone really listen to Dick Morris??

This this and this. They see the tidal wave Ron is building and know that he will be the eventual nominee. They (the establishment) need to keep their guy in.

The Rothschild Party. Oh, joy. Just what the nation needed. :rolleyes:

Well, now. Donald Trump is perfect. Since he gives money to, and votes for, Democrats, pretends to be a Republican, has an ego big enough for two men, and will tell you himself he's immortal, he can be both the presidential and vice presidential nominee at the same time.

He even has residences in enough different states that he can claim to be exempt from the rule that the pres and veep have to be from different ones.

Buddy Roemer is probably going to get it. And you know what? Paul is the only one I could see him getting behind. He likes Ron a lot.
