Ron should name Judge Nap as VP choice on the final Freedom Watch

[trey4sports]

Judge has said he doesn't want to be veep. I don't think he wants the spotlight.

No good person wants the spotlight. They do it for the greater good. I absolutely believe Dr Paul fits in this camp. At his age does ne want so badly to be head guy to take the crap he's taking? I can't imagine myself being anywhere near as patient as he is. I know it may sound corny but I honestly believe he's doing it for freedom, ie: to help everyone understand how important it is to know what freedom is, define it, then rebuild it. Here. If it's even possible after what we've seen. And he takes it. Incredible human. A real hero of immense proportions not even being discussed ( yet ) is the amount of people who have come to understand so to speak what freedom is under his tutiledge ( sp) his books, speeches, etc. That's huge and it'll grow and get passed down to babies and new generations.

I think it's safe to say that most Americans cannot do that. They cannot define what it means to be free. I saw today that mpre than 1/3 think positively of socialism. And we're witnessing the decline of this place. I think it's safe to say that Dr Paul is the last link in the political chain before it's a vast majority of corruption. It's sad. Millions killed for a farce. Locked in to ever higher taxes because of the spending because of a farce. And one guy just won't budge. No matter what Dr Paul is not negotiating with these bastards who are proving beyond any doubt they are against each and every one of us.

God bless him. Unbelievable.

So I agree that the Judge would make a good VP pick but with the idea of a brokered convention, I would like RP to be able to have Mitt as the VP so he can "be involved" and have a bargaining chip when everyone realizes we have the most delegates, and will continue to do so up to the nomination. (if we find out we have enough to do this without mitt as the VP, then the Judge would be a good pick. Though I am still waiting to see whom else would be a good pick for VP, Sec of State, Attorney General and so on.

Judge isn't well known among the common voters and wouldn't bring anything to the campaign that Paul doesn't already bring.

Not to mention he's said things that wonbt jive well with gop voters.

HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

I want Judge Nap appointed to the Supreme Court, not VP!

Rand would be my dream VP, and Jesse Ventura... Something in the military, I guess, lol!

Considering Ventura was a SEAL, he definitely knows way more about combat than some of the arrogant privates who somehow raise in the ranks today!

i think ron paul is doing this just so his children, grand children, and great grand children wont live in a messed up place. so he is educating as many peopel as he can... so when he is not around anymore, there is enough people to keep the light on.

 

[rp713]

while i'd trust the judge to never break under establishment pressure, i'd rather have him as Supreme Court Judge or Attorney Gen. it'll be epic to see him prosecute everyone at the fed, former congressman who dealt in insider trading and other illegal practices, banksters..etc. if he is Attorney General

 

[cindy25]

Would there be anything wrong with nominating your VP for the SC?

I agree with others on here when I say that I think VP would be great insurance.

you can nominate anyone to SC but he would have to resign as VP upon confirmation (and POTUS would then nominate a new VP)

 

[floridasun1983]

VP can also be seen as the "successor" once the torch is passed.

Mitt as a VP is a very, very, bad idea.

What the hell are we suppose to do with Rand then?

 

[Endthefednow]

Ran can be Prez after Nap`s 4 or 8 years in

 

[jsem]

Judge Nap for Attorney General or Supreme Court whenever Justice Ginsberg retires.

 

[Paul Or Nothing II]

I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but if Ron were to secure the nomination, it seems like a Ron/Rand ticket is the dream, right?

Despite the reservations some have about Rand, I think he'd do just fine with daddy there to keep him in check and show him how it's done. Rand wins their hearts, Ron wins their mind. Dream ticket in the general, IMO, but maybe that's just a pipedream....

Yeah. Maybe a VP would re-vigorate the candidacy. I think most of us are quite frustrated at the moment.

The judge or rand or possibly gary johnson.

The first father and son presidential ticket? lol. Think of the media firestorm this will cause.

I've talking about Rand as VP for AGES now; he has that red-meat appeal among regular GOP-voters & he makes himself sound like a "centrist" but of course, people have talked about reservations about father/son thing so I don't know!

Following post, dated 06-27-2011 :

Actually, with that 10% stuck with Ron, the GOP & all the establishment candidates know that they need that 10% to beat Obama & that's why all the establishment candidates have shifted towards Ron to attract this bloc. So if we consider scenarios put forth in this post then getting Rand on-board as VP might turn out to be a masterstroke because Rand has a strong mainstream following, not just among GOP voters but he scores well with democrats as well & he forms a perfect foil for the "extreme" Ron as Rand is seen more of "centrist" & mainstream. Let's say declaring Rand as VP even gets us another 5-10% of the mainstream GOP vote then GOP will be caught between rock & a hard place because they'll realize that not only they can't beat Obama but they'll be risking destruction of the party itself & therefore more mainstream GOP voters might start falling in line behind a Paul/Paul ticket with no other recourse in sight.

I've been saying this for a while that it's very unlikely that Ron's numbers are going to shoot up drastically in the few months remaining & he's been completely sold to the public as a "kook", "unelectable", etc by the media even though they admit on some of his positions & Rand's stature has grown so much in the short period that many asked him if was going to run for presidency so talks of nepotism wouldn't stand a chance & a father-son ticket could be also sold as a "historic event" as much as "first black president", "first lady president", etc are sold.

I just don't want 2012 to be like 2008 where people hoped & hoped that some miracle would happen & regular voters would "see the light" all of a sudden & Ron would become president but of course, it never happened & if one looks at things objectively, it mayn't happen this time around either so we ought to do something more than just running a conventional campaign & hoping that "somehow everything will work out", & Rand might just be the ace that we need to pull out to put GOP in a catch 22 situation; are they willing accept Paul/Paul to overthrow Obama or do they hate Ron so much that they'd let Obama win! I think the answer would be clear to anyone who understands the mentality of the mainstream GOP voters.

Another one could be Mitch Daniels, Indiana-governor, he's shown libertarian streak (although I think he doesn't call himself one) thru road-privatization, right to work, etc etc

A Vice President is four years with little power but a Supreme Court Justice is a LIFETIME.

We need a man like him in the highest court in the land protecting our freedoms.

I agree Judge would be better served as.......Judge

The only thing is that Ron is against birthright-citizenship while Judge is for it but I suppose that's not too bad I guess.

 

[goldpants]

The media and establishment may attack questions about Nap's personal life. Which could make for interesting hypocrisy in some of the previous criticisms of RP. I would be all for Judge running alongside RP as VP and eventually being nominated for Supreme Court Justice or Attorney General.

 

[joshnorris14]

Judge Napolitano >>>> Rand Paul

The Judge doesn't spend half his time with neocon balls on his chin.

 

[jscoppe]

The Judge is awesome, but he will further alienate the Republican base. Rand would bring them in (due to the ball-chin thing that joshnorris14 brought up), he has experience in Federal gov't, he is a rising star, and I really think people (and especially the media) would be enamored with the first father/son presidential ticket in history. It's a gimmick, sure, but behind the gimmick is two principled, freedom-loving, Constitution-obeying patriots.

 

[unknown]

Ive been saying Ron Paul / Judge Andrew Napolitano 2012 forever!!!

I was the first!!!

Supreme Court Justice maybe?
