Ron Paul Would Likely Secede From The Union As TX Gov.

We need someone like Kilgore in the coming years...

Ron needs to stay right where he's at.

If he were governor, he'd have virtually no voice in American national and foreign policy issues.

All federal tax and spending bills originate in the U.S House of Representatives. If we're going to save this country, we have to regain control of taxes and spending.

If Ron were a U.S. Senator, he'd have less influence regarding taxes and spending.

Ron should stay in the U.S. House until he either dies or becomes too old to carry on.

There's truth in that, but it's a political fact that Ron has very little sway in the congress. In his position as Governor he'd have an opportunity to both resist many of the Fed's advances and to serve as an example of how a state may be run to prosper. Here's the catch though, no one man can truly affect the government whether state or federal. Not even the Governor. He'd need a legislature with which he could work.

Anyone curious on what would happen to the federal army bases in TX if they were to succede?

The Texas Constitution has made the governorship of Texas one of the weakest in the country. I don't see how it would really do any good.

the texas GOP is among the most curropt. They know they can run most any peice of shit liberal with a R next to their name and they will win. Hence, rick perry, john cornyn, kay bailey hutchison ETC.

Texas doesn't care about the issues much, they have been duped to vote for the letter.

That being said, if somehow ron paul was the only republican running for the job, he would probably win.

The state senate and house are pretty good though. Texas is the example in America of what state govt should look like.

But then idoits like Perry get elected as Gov and our Senators go screw things up for us.

I voted against Cornyn. My congressman Carter voted against the bailout.

I don't see why a governor cannot bring home their National Guard forces. They are the commander in chief, are they not? The necessary requirements for call up of militia have not occurred.

If that happened, I and President Ron Paul welcome you all to to the New Republic of Texas! We desperately need patriots here, not neo-cons!

Larry Kilgore got 27% of the vote in the Republican primary against Gov Perry. His official stance was to leave the union. It was big on the front page of his website.

I also voted for him. We met him at the TX straw poll. He is a Ron Paul supporter
