I found a Ron Paul supporter at work.

[Matthew Zak]

An African American woman in her late 40's - early 50's. I can't remember her name right now because I was too excited about our conversation to focus on that. I knew from the moment we sat down to chat that I was going to somehow bring up Ron Paul, so I carefully steered our conversation from random work related things, to Television, to the Media, and then of course to Politics. SHE was the first one to bring up the constitution, and when I heard that word come out of her mouth I dropped the "Paul" bomb on her and she smiled, and nodded. She honestly believes that he will get the nomination.

What are the chances that the ONLY person I dare talk politics to at work not only likes Ron Paul, but believes he'll win? Statistically that's really improbable -- UNLESS he's got more supporters than any of us are even aware of. Perhaps it was just a lucky exchange, but it's a very, very encouraging one, none the less.

cool . . . same with me - 2 are with me on my floor that i know of.

Wow. It's amazing isn't it?

Just yesterday I was talking politics with a guy and his manager came over and says he campaigned for Paul in his younger days back when he lived in Texas. Totally unexpected and very nice to hear.

Yeah I was doing a charter. I work for a school bus company so me and some other bus drivers ended up at a community center. We chatted over hot chocolate. It was a great conversation. I got paid for it. Some times I like my job.

Did you tell her to register as Republican so she can vote in the primaries?

 

[angelatc]

My husband had a guy at work approach him the day after the debate, and ask him "who was that old guy that wants to end the war?"

Always have slim jims, people!!!

 

[kylejack]

He's........

Come on, help me out here.

WOOHOO!!

My chiropractor/trainer asked me about him this morning and I had a high-five on the freeway on the way to work, which has never happened before.

I love this.

Catching on, I'm telling ya!

The only thing better than finding a Ron Paul supporter at work is making one.

Yep. Someone in one of my big lecture classes saw my Ron Paul button today and revealed that he and his family, except for his mom, were voting for RP. So I was feeling pretty good.

Then I went to another class and got into a discussion about the youtube debate. The guy said he liked RP way more than the other republicans but was pro-abortion and was thinking about voting for Obama. So I explained that RP would just return abortion legislation to the states. Then I explained how Dr. Paul would help our economy so much. He said, "Yeah, I think I'll vote for Paul."

The best part about that? He was from Iowa.

There just arent many political signs around Los Angeles. I was quite overjoyed to pull off the 101 freeway this morning by NBC studios only to be greeted by a large Ron Paul sign. Of course I have my Ron Paul bumper stickers on the back of my PT Cruiser, but I had nothing to do with the sign. I wondered If the traffic behind me noticed. I mean it seems like a double whammy when there are no signs anywhere but you exit the freeway to see both a bumpersticker and a sign for one guy at the same red light. Its got to make you raise an eyebrow.

ME TOO! At the bottom of the offramp! There's also one on the Lankershim offramp - a nice big blue one.

The North Hollywood meetups are on fire, I tell you.

 

[RonPaulJunkie]

crazy! I just had this happen to me. I had taken a printscreen of my donation today. A cowoker came over and had some questions and i still had the printscreen open in photoshop, I quickly tried to close it and he said "whoa! I like Ron Paul". Freaked me out because I never would have known.

Lesson: Don't be ashamed of Ron even at work

Friday's are dress casual day for us. Today I'm wearing a Ron Paul for President tshirt and found that one of the managers is a big fan of Ron Paul.

He noted he switched from independant to Republican just to vote for him in the primaries! I ended up blowing through my lunch break talking Ron with him.

As a side note, we work on an army base, and he's fully aware that a vote for Ron Paul is a vote to do away with most federal spending. He was just so fed up with the major parties.

"Are you a closet ron paul supporter? Do you find yourself quietly, inconspicuously muttering words such as liberty and revolution? Have you on more than one occasion felt compelled to shout your support for Ron Paul from the rooftops, choosing not to out of fear of publican condemnation? Do you sometimes wish you lived in a world where it wasn't considered weird crazy to support a candidate who strays from the typical course? It's time to come out of the closet, and help those who already have to create such a world. This is YOUR world. Fear NOTHING."

I would like to hear something like this by a good voice over personality.

He's catchin' on!

YEAH!
