Introduce yourself! Who, What, Where, Why!

[kimosabi]

Hi everyone, I'm Michael -- a Brit living in London, UK and just joined the forum. While i'm not American, I will certainly be doing everything I can to support Ron Paul and get him elected president -- I've known about him for a couple of years now and his message resonates deeply with freedom lovers and patriots everywhere.

As some of you may know, Britain is the archetypal model of a western state with hard won freedoms now destroying the civil liberties of its citizens, the pace at which civil liberties have been eroded under the Blair government is frightening and unreal. But the good news is that the people are starting to wake up and no longer accepting the same old spin about the need to sacrifice liberty for security because it hasn't worked for us so far.

I wish Britain had someone of the stature, true patriotism and consistency of Ron Paul the people could rally around. Having said that, what's good for America is good for Britain and Ron Paul is best for America!

Australian's are having their Civil Rights eroded as well, I'm quickly coming to the conclusion that the real Terrorists are currently running America, Britain and Australia.

I also wish we he someone of Ron Pauls stature, true patriotism and consistency running for Prime Minister in Australia.

France, too. Look at Missieur Sarkozy.

Hello everyone. I've been lurking around here for some time and I thought I should introduce myself. My name is Greg, and I am a huge Ron Paul supporter.

I must confess that I voted for W in 2000, and in 04. I was a blind, chest thumping neo-con and I was wrong. I actually thought that we were doing the right thing by invading Iraq. I actually supported the Patriot act. Several things I have learned since have not only changed my mind, but how I actually think. Kind of an awakening.

Anyway, it's good to be here amongst you folks. Go Ron Paul!!!!

Hello!

My name's Jenn, and naturally love Ron Paul and his character, ideas, and integrity! If anyone lives in the Sarasota/Bradenton area, feel free to send me a private message. Looking for others to meet with.

Voted for Baby Bush in 2000, but neither Bush nor Kerry in 2004. Thank the heavens that we actually have an honest patriot running for Prez!

Hi! Ponce here in the woods or Oregon.....retired and happy.

If we want to save America we need Ron Paul for the future of this country must be in the hands of someone who will be for America and not for the state of Israel.

We need him in order to put America first, second and third.

"A vote for Ron Paul is a vote for America"... Ponce

May the force be with him............Ron Paul in 2008

Fred Soto -- San Jose, California.

I'm originally from Texas, former moderate / Clintonian democrat. After meeting 3 Libertarians in my life-time, I've come to a conclusion: The Libertarian party is the party of the brains.

Every person I've met that shares this background has an aura of intelligence that I have not felt or seen anywhere else. After meeting the third libertarian, I came to recognize it wasn't a fluke... and now Ron Paul has convinced me that the party deserves some publicity, along with Ron Paul as their representative.

I'm inspired by Ron Paul's love for constitutional rights and freedom and I love what Ron Paul stands for... every time I see him talk I am left wanting more. Frankly, I don't believe Republicans stand a chance in hell against Clinton or Obama, -- the latter of which has impressed me in the same way that Ron Paul has. Ron Paul or one of the democrats in 2008, its the only logical choice for the majority of Americans, and that is the biggest reason to support the only anti-war Republican.

This is what you need to push, see if Rudy Giuliani can match this
Ron Paul, a Christian, embraces true conservative values, adherent to the constitution, a man of principle and does not play games with taxpayer dollars.

My name is Jason and I'm a US Marine living in Okinawa, Japan. Ron Paul is a breath of fresh air and he's got my vote. Sincerity, consistency, loyalty, integrity, etc... why does this seem like a totally new concept in DC? Ron Paul is the man to take us back to where we belong. Ron Paul 2008!

R,
Jason

I'm Dave Ridley aka Dada Orwell from the Free State of New Hampshire!

I moved up here in 04 for more freedom, and to peaceably fight for individual liberty in NH. The Ron Paul thing is a chance to fight for NH liberty, my liberty and the nation's liberty at the same time!

People up here are lit on fire and we are turning out larger numbers of supporters than most of the other candidates; RP is also now 2nd in funds raised from New Hampshirites.

I've already been to five ron paul demonstrations here in state...including one last week where 250 people showed up. We are just getting started.

Hi all,
I am new to this fourm, Ron Paul supporter. Looking for ways to help, doing some, want to do more. I came here to find ideas and like minded folks. I sometimes debate and discuss Ron and rights on another forum. I may just need this to recharge.

Hi all, I've been lurking about a week now. I'm 38/F, artist, near Berkeley, recovering Democrat.

Dr. Paul "gets it" in a way that I haven't seen from anyone else in politics in my lifetime. On the Really Important Stuff like foreign policy, sound money, trade, taxes, Habeus Corpus(!), RealID(!!), North American Union(!!!)... he's on top of it. This totally eclipses any transient "social issues." We can argue about those tomorrow, if we survive today.

All the media-designated "frontrunners" of both parties are obviously bought and paid for by the same entity, using transparent psyop tactics to divide us over religion and gender and race and orientation. I've seen this red-blue game before, on the streets of LA. The only winner is the one running both gangs. Or in this case, the person who decides which candidates the TV says we're supposed to consider "serious."

Vote Ron Paul, for the future. If you want to have one at all.

PS: Slackware!

A friend of mine just started college, late in life. I warned her that one of the terrible side effects of education is seeing the eyes of so many other people still closed.

Welcome, from a reformed neocon.

I'm Charlotte from Bucks County Pennsylvania, and I'm an atheist, pro choice and still support Ron Paul wholeheartedly. Finally a candidate I can trust to work for the people and not the fascists.

Hi Folks...

I'm Largo from Sweden....
I've been following the very exciting development of RP:s "Running for President Campaign..."

and...as I'm a Big Fan of the Original US Constitution...and...therefore I''m also very Pleased of all the support and IMPACT that RP generates by His very STRAIGHTFORWARD way of presenting His Views...In Fact...I even believe HE's the Very Guy who will Change the World...No matter if he'll be elected or Not...

Unwittingly or not...RP has started a Movement...that NO-ONE can stop....

Here in Sweden we have a group of likeminded people that have agreed to contact every American Citizen they know...and ...Tell THEM about RP....

Further ...as many of us are connected to the Internet and members of many forums...we ALL have begin to make postings about RP and directing them to the Videos....

WHY I do This...?

As I said before...The RP Movement...will CHANGE this Civilization...

"The Greedy League"...and their "Politician Puppets"...have NO CHANCE...
If ...Opposing this movement...they'll just be rolled over...

As I've been reading a lot on Other Forums...I've got this GUT Feeling..that It's sort of In The AIR...The RP Movement...will just keep rolling on...unstoppable..because the RP messages ... SOOO very much HIT the very CORE of every freethinking Being...ALL OVER THE PLANET...

THIS IS SOOOO EXCITING!!!!

It's On ly MY OWN Thoughts...

Largo

Hello, I'm Jason from Davis, California. I'm a 19 year old conservative libertarian. I believe in the constitution and hate what is happening to my country. Before I heard about Ron Paul I was very pessimistic about this country, but Ron Paul has given me hope. I believe he and his message will return this country to its former glory.

Hi, I'm Andrew, and I'm a Freedom-oholic.

(Hi, Andrew)

I'm a 30 year old attorney in Miami, Florida. I was raised by two liberal democrat parents, rebelled, became a staunch conservative (Limbaugh-type conservative) through high school and the first half of my college career, then by about 1998 moved on to my libertarian (small l) philosophy.

First year I was old enough to vote, voted for Bob Dole in '96. Voted for Harry Browne in '00 but supported Dubya. Voted for Michael Badnarik in '04, though I didn't like him much (at that time I was regretting supporting Dubya in '00). But this is the first time I've ever been excited about a Presidential candidate.
