RP2008 press release:

Key California Republican Group Endorses Ron Paul

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

May 22, 2007

ARLINGTON, VA – The United Republicans of California (UROC) have unanimously endorsed Congressman Ron Paul for president of the United States. UROC, formed in 1963 to support Barry Goldwater, represents the traditional conservative wing of the California Republican Party.

“The unanimous endorsement from the United Republicans of California proves what the campaign has been saying all along,” said campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “Ron Paul is the only true conservative and real Republican in the race.”

In their official statement endorsing Dr. Paul, UROC called him “the leading advocate for freedom in our nation’s capital” and recognized that:

Ron Paul’s voting record demonstrates that he has voted against:

· raising taxes;
· unbalanced budgets;
· a federal restriction on gun ownership;
· raising congressional pay; or
· increasing the power of the executive branch.

His voting record demonstrates further that he voted against:

· the USA Patriot Act;
· regulating the Internet; and
· the war in Iraq.

Dr. Paul is the only candidate with a record that matches the UROC’s platform.

“Whether the issue is life, the Second Amendment, foreign policy, spending or taxes, Ron Paul is the only traditional conservative candidate,” continued Snyder. “Traditional conservatives across the country should support Ron Paul for president.”
 
How important is this group? I wonder if this will get National media attention?

Here is there website:

It looks very low end, but that doesn't say too much about them. There are huge groups that have cheesy websites, I personally don't know who they are, but I think that is irrelevant.

Even if this is a small group, it is a start, and gives opportunity to have a group debate on the side of RP that is inside the GOP party!
 
This is great news. :) How can we get more Republicans from other states on board?
 
Awesome!!!!
Oakland California here!

I guess I was considered a democrat, but in reality I'm just an American like Ron Paul so I will vote as a republican or even a "terrorist" (as labeled by this Patriot ACT) if I had to.
 
I did some reading. These are the same folks who supported Barry Goldwater's campaign bid back in the 60's. These guys are the old gatekeepers, and they haven't seen an old school republican run for president in a looong time. This is good news for Ron Paul, this serves as the sounding call for what's left of the old Republican party.
