Trends reflect a one-week window.

The amazing thing about these numbers is that the trendlines are heading way up in every category. Look at the YouTube hits -- he went up 42% in one week! He began the week with about 1.1 million video views, and is now over 1.7 million. That's 600,000 Ron Paul videos watched in one week -- the word is getting out, and people are very interested. Or check his meetup.com stats -- he's added 7,000 people in the past three weeks! That's more people than the #2 candidate (Obama, 6,008 members) has gotten in over a year.

This thing is primed to break out bigtime, kids. Bigtime. And, unlike Romney, McCain, and Giuliani, RP hasn't even spent much money yet.

Happy 4th. Our constitutional republic is on its way to restoration.

Internet is one (good) thing. However, when you hit the streets of American cities you will experience a crude awakening to the fact that most people have never heard or know very little about Dr. Paul. This situation begs for more street action, e. g. through RonPaul.meetup.com groups

You are right, of course, but I don't think we are in our own bubble. The internet has changed the way we live.

We shop online, research online, get our news online, register for schools online, e-mail friends online. Pay taxes, balance checkbooks, buy on Amazon, auction on eBay, download music and ringtones, share digital pictures, etc etc.

This could be the election that really ingrains the Internet into political communication, like the TV debate between Richard Nixon and John Kennedy did for television in 1960. People had widely owned tv's for a decade, before that debate. After it, the TV was indespenible as a medium.
