[paulbot24]

F**k the negativity, no one came this far to quit just before the finish line.
It's right there in front of us, the finish line. Are we 1st, 2nd, what's the truth about Benton? Who knows?
Just go, damn it, go with all you got, for peace sake!

Oh hell yes THIS.

we have a primary here in CA on Tuesday, and that's all I can focus on right now (although I will be checking in the convention threads a bit -- best of luck to our delegates!)

whatever. Its looking more and more that i'll be casting my vote for Obama. Fuck the republican party. 4 more years for Obama should get everybody awake by his 7th year...

over and out. Good luck in Tampa.

I'm not sure what I will do if it comes down to this. Part of me has come to hate the GOP so much for everything they did to RP and us, but I can't vote out of spite. I've kind of narrowed it down to this: Obama = socialism + bankruptcy and Romney = World War III + bankruptcy. The powers that be are just hell bent on bankrupting our country, but that being equal, I'd prefer not to go into World War III. So, that would pretty much leave me @ Obama. Having said that, obviously, this hasn't played out yet and I would want to see where our numbers will make the biggest difference and if we, as a group, can reach any kind of consensus. I know the consensus was always to write-in RP, but I can see our numbers really splintering among G.Johnson, write-in, Obama ... and I think to the least extent, Romney. It would be such a shame for us to lose the power of our numbers.

You may be right, maybe we need this for people to finally wake up. sigh. This is what we are dealing with (update: @ present 1626.30):

A vote for a lesser evil is still a vote for evil (personally think both are given the same agenda regardless, so there really isn't a 'lesser' evil). WWRPD?, I think we know he would stand on principle and convictions. Can you not do the same?

I am concerned about the neo-cons getting us into World War III and I really don't think you should be placing judgement on me for that. As I said, I am still waiting to see how things play out though ... not looking to get into disputes with other Ron Paul supporters. There are enough people on the "outside" with whom to have disagreements.

259 candidates are vying for 10 at-large delegate spots. Each candidate is given 30 seconds to make a speech.

Judge nothing, question everything. A vote for Obama or Romney or even the thought of it seems to be a conformity vote for the current path in which we are headed. If this is the majority opinion in this forum, I think I'm in the wrong place.

I am a delegate for Romney so I can feel awesome and patriotic when Romney gets the nomination because TV told me he is in first place. I can feel like a winner. I am important cause I voted for the winner. Thank you.

LOL - I am hardly the majority! Just an individual.

Well other individuals like yourself have made statements like "4 more years of Obama is better than 8 years of Romney" in the context that we can have someone like Paul elected in 2016 and someone else made the statement that 'The Paul campaign quit weeks ago'.

Then the individual with the screen name 'No1butPaul' talks about voting for Obama. All these statements were posted today.

Do you understand my concern for the objective of this forum?

Well, first you misrepresent my words. Second, yes, I see the irony in my ID and Obama statement; however, since I created my ID (in January) I have listened to repeated saber rattling & war drumming from Romney & the GOP. Frankly, it concerns me deeply. It seems clear the objective from the establishment is to hasten the collapse to usher in whatever they have planned (Ron Paul stated they want to come up with a global currency) ... if Ron Paul doesn't get the nomination, I have to consider this. Making a statement will not go towards helping to prevent WWIII. Much to consider ... waiting to see what happens. In the meantime, just trying to make sure my house is in order; would suggest e1 do the same. http://www.businessinsider.com/raoul-pal-the-end-game-2012-6
