your right , i imagined the last 5 yrs . guess we should all get on facebook and play that farm game instead because everything is on the up and up and romney is so trust worthy . could you explain how it is being "paranoid or self-centered" when it has already happened ? multiple times ? you are being delusional if you cant see what is happening right in front of your face , or you dont want to .

Lol, I couldn't care less what place Ron comes in. Everybody keeps forgetting this is about getting a message out. If we can ignite more people to this cause, liberty will win. If you're a true Ron Paul supporter, you will fight tooth and nail, scratch and cry, shout and scream, for your constitution and for your country. Yes, it would be awesome to win the presidency, but the primary goal is to do what the media won't let us: SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF LIBERTY! Think about it, this is THE ONLY WAY people can even get a TASTE of the truth. We HAVE to make sure that truth gets out there. ONWARD!
Today marked my second time caucusing for Ron Paul, I of course caucused and delegated for Ron back in 2008. My precinct is in an upper middle class section of Las Vegas, Summerlin to be exact, so the demographics mostly consist of older if not retired, white and a substantial L.D.S population. Out of my precinct about 19 people showed up, me and another gentlemen decided to be captain and co-captain to run our precinct caucus. We introduced ourselves, passed out the information and explained the caucus and convention process...etc.
The next step was to figure out who was volunteering to attend the county convention next month, for my precinct we needed seven. Luckily it was very easy to get the 7 volunteers. The "fun" part was next, where people would volunteer to speak about their candidate. The first candidate on the list was Newt (we went in alphabetical order), not one person shared their views on Newt, so we next went to Ron Paul. Myself and two other gentlemen shared our views on Ron Paul some of the issues consisted of:
- tort reform to control health care prices
- the debt, deficits and the Fed
- national security
- abortion
I of course spoke about he's the only veteran in the race, how RP never voted to increase taxes, an unbalanced budget, delivered babies.....etc.
After speaking about Ron Paul, it was Mitt's turn. All I heard was how Mitt saved the SLC Winter Olympics, he's able to work with Democrats as the governor of MA, his business background....etc. Then the FoxNews brain washing started to kick in. "Ron Paul wants to legalize drugs," "Ron Paul wants Iran to own a nuclear weapon," "Ron Paul is too extreme, he never got anything accomplished in Congress....."...etc.
So of course us Ron Paul supports defended Ron by making it clear Ron Paul has a consistent voting record going back 30 years, he believes certain things like drugs should be a state issue, and the biggest surprise is when I told Romney-ites that Ron Paul is the only candidate that gets twice the amount of donations from active service members than any other candidate combined! I also made it a point that Ron Paul is the only candidate that will get the votes of independents and Democrats if he was to be the nominee (I made sure to bring up "Reagan Democrats).
Afterwards, we did the vote: 12 Romney, 6 Ron Paul, 1 Gingrich, 0 Santorum and 4 of the 7 delegates that are going to represent my precinct at the Clark County Convention next month are Ron Paul supporters. I even made sure the votes were tallied correctly, personally sealed the ballot envelop and made sure it was dropped off where it was suppose to be. So even though Ron Paul didn't win the straw poll we accomplished in giving him a solid delegation to represent him next month, and as we know that's all that matters!

Perhaps you'd like to answer the question... Who is pulling the strings to conspire to commit vote fraud in Nevada?
I'd like to know, as some of the people you are likely to accuse of are people I've dealt with honestly and forthrightly.

Oh hold on, let me call up one of my billionaire buddies to find out. There are many people who could be pulling strings, but it would be absurd and pointless for an armchair observer to claim they know who...
Perhaps you need to do a bit more research about voter fraud. There is not one guy who pulls strings you can point to. There are lots of different methods if you got cash and power.

#NVcaucus Absentee votes are accepted from active duty military and their family members. I hope these votes really get counted

To the idiots who think everything is peachy and Ron Paul would never be cheated out of votes - look up Bev Harris

lol I really don't see why it is considered a conspiracy theory that there are people (not the Illuminati, not Bohemia Grove, or the Bilderberg Group) that don't want Ron Paul to be taken seriously or for him to win. If they did then he would receive fair media coverage instead of being ignored and when they do cover him they talk about how he can't win and how his views are crazy and not "mainstream".

Oh, so you can't tell me who is conspiring to commit vote fraud in the NVGOP caucus. Not even one name?
That's what I thought.
FYI, some of those people counting those votes in Nevada are friends of mine. They're trustworthy people, at least to the extent that they aren't going to commit vote fraud over second place, when everyone they work with would prefer that Gingrich finish as close to the bottom as possible.
But who am I to argue, when its you against the world.

that is why he ALWAYS wins regardless of total, it is not the goal.
i understand that... but i signed up to be a republican so i can vote for ron in the primaries... busted my butt to gain as many ron paul supporters as possible in hopes that he can win the nomination... i havent been busting my butt so that ron loses but it will be ok if the message goes on.

I think it's both.
You can't separate the two. Elections help to spread the message. Spreading the message helps to win elections.
Paul is advocating a gigantic paradigm shift. Winning is the ultimate goal, no doubt about it, but spreading the message so that it lives on after Paul's candidacy is just as important.
