Ron Paul/Pat Buchanan Independent Ticket?

[Oneironaut07]

I don't think ron paul will win this election, and i definitely think the republican party won't let him become their nominee
so why not circumvent the process and create a 3rd party movement that will draw support from disaffected conservatives, pacifists, anti-amnesty groups and even potential obama supporters if he fails to win the nomination
i believe ron paul would get 15-20% in the general election this way
or maybe 20-25% if ross perot were on the ticket, plus he would be able to bankroll that kind of independent run
it might be our best shot at securing the movement's futurity in the political spectrum
and maybe even the formation of a viable 3rd party contender?

Oneironaut07, Ron Paul will not win INdependent vote, you know why?
Because the same whiny losers who whine about him losing GOP nomination will be whinig about how he can't win a Libertarian or Constitution party ticket.

QFT. And search next time. This was talked about a few days ago. There is no reason to go for a more conservatively viewed VP.

I raise you Barry Goldwater Jr.

Now that ticket would make Mccain shit his pants.
