I'll see how I feel if this comes to fruition.

For now though, consider this: Ron Paul continues to be perceived as a novelty act by so many (fools) that his presence on the ticket would finally confirm his credibility, paving the way for his message to stay on radar as others pick up the torch for future election cycles at both the local and national level.

Of course he's going to be on the ticket, he's going to win the nomination duh

Romney/Paul - 2 reasons why I would support the ticket... 1. Romney might have very high cholesterol and drop dead. 2. Rand Paul would benefit if his dad was VP for 4 years, and a deal was reached to have Rand Paul become VP for the second term so Ron can retire if he so chooses.

But the reality on the ground will be much different. The delegates are all going to gather at the convention and they're going to be faced with one simple question. Which of the four men can beat Obama. The arguments will be made for all to hear...and the political demographics will make their eventual choice crystal clear. Ron Paul is the only man who can defeat Chairman Obamao, and the numbers prove it.

They are trying to save the Republican Party.

VP to Romney. VP is an empty suit job for a dummie with no ideas, perfect for Mitt. RP2012 In It To Win It

that you can be of different mindsets and still work together. It has happened in US history where you have the President and Vice-President be of totally different parties. It used to go to the "top two" of the electoral college if you will, until later changes. Why would this be any different? There would definitely be some good to Paul on the ticket in any regards. This is of course if he accepts (and his supporters with definite changes), or if Romney accepts, etc... The two do regard each other with more respect than any other pair out there.

One has to see the forest for the trees ... one has to see the bigger picture. Did nobody ever read about Thomas Jefferson as VP? Ron Paul could and would radically change the role of the VP, if it ended up that he fell into that position. It may not be ideal, but it is far better than many other options. It need not be all or nothing, and anyway Dr. Paul would then only be a heartbeat away:

Romney's source of income arguing that there is nothing wrong with being a venture capitalist (of course). Ron Paul has defended Romney on a few other issues.

The AntiChrist tag-team of Gingrich and Santorum claim to be "close personal friends". I would lay money on the idea that if one of these two demons got the nomination - he would choose the other to form the "We are Legion" ticket.

Gingrich and Santorum are SO unpalatable - I have voted Republican all my life and never missed a Presidential election - but I could NEVER bring myself to vote for a Gingrich or Santorum ticket. (I would either vote third party or not vote.)

Its as important that Ron Paul be the nominee as it is that Gingrich and Santorum NOT be the nominee.

not acceptable... RP as VP... It's president or nothing

Everyone here should be voting for Ron Paul for President regardless of his presence on the ballot.

If Ron Paul is the Republican nominee, then vote for the Republican in November.

If the Republican ticket doesn't list Ron Paul in the slot next to President, then you write Ron Paul in.

That simple.
No compromise. Look where 250 years of compromise has left us.

Ron Paul 2012. Accept no substitute.

If Romney wanted to start another war and not listen to Ron's admonishment or do another bailout or just about anything else Dr. Paul didn't agree with, then he could resign in disgust.

It would certainly send a message on a world stage.

But I doubt he would take the job in the first place.

im not buying this one bit, if this guy really is GOP then there's an angle, if he's not, his info is useless. i personally believe the establishment includes both santorum and gingrich and their votes will all be combined when the time comes, RP will be silenced. santorum and gingrich aren't viable, they have no hope of winning, so why are they in?

But Romney wouldn't put Ron on the ticket. He's too cautious and would consider that a big risk.

By the way, $10 will buy you a stack of business cards that call you a Republican strategist. To say they are a dime a dozen is to devalue dimes.

...people, what if it goes the other way? If Romney doesn't have the votes.. then no one does. What would you have Paul do? Let Santorum and Newt team up?

If I was Romney, I would ask Paul to take the Presidency slot. If the four years work out. Great, Romney can ride the wave and count his blessings for not having to be unprincipled any longer. If they don't, Great. Paul will not be running for a second term 4 years from now. He won't need more than 4.

Yes, Yes we are all voting for the nomination of Paul, but his strategy is heavy with the "what if?" of a brokered convention. A clear win and we can all be confident it will be an admin overhaul. But what if he could take it, but needed a coalition?

Neither candidate wants Santorum or Newt as baggage. The fact is: Romney (and the party) could seriously benefit from riding shotgun to a Paul presidential slot for 4.

The flip flopper can easily adopt the Paul Plan.

So I put it to you. What if Romney can't take it, but neither can Paul?

be VP in my opinion, I will not vote for Romney no way no how, I will write him in if I have to.

...in front of unthinking individuals naive enough to be manipulated.

I can not even consider the possibility that Ron Paul, after 30 years of standing alone and doing what is constitutional, will throw away the" liberty, peace, sound money revolution" for a meaningless VP spot.

It's Ron Paul or NONE at all for me.

It's important to note that if the VP carrot had been suggested on the Hannity Show, we would all be telling Hannity where to shove the carrot. It really bothers me that the Judge allowed this VP idea to be circulated.

Dr Paul never compromised his ethics and we shouldn't either.

He just has two things reversed. Ron Paul on the ticket as President and Romney betting him to select him as VP :oP I love the way that the Judge blew him off lol

RP on the top of the ticket and nobody else. VP is for show.

If that were to happen Ron Paul would be the most out of sight, out of mind Vice President in US history. In fact, he would have so little influence with minimal mention in the MSM, Jay Leno wouldn't even bother doing one of his "man on the street" comic routines asking the sheeple who the VP is. THAT'S how bad it would be.

And... as much as I've been a die-hard Ron Paul supporter since early 2007 I'd turn on him in a heartbeat if he chose to wrap-up his unblemished political career by making his first deal/compromise. It would be shameful. I'd much rather see him continue the cause as a private citizen or retire into obscurity than kiss anyone's ring.

I'm voting RON PAUL AS PRESIDENT FOR 2012 no matter what!!!

this guy's case for RP being on the ticket (yet not necessarily the headliner) is solid. -BUT- i don't see ron accepting a VP role. i think he's in it to win or go home. his goal is to get to the white house, but he'd much rather be relaxing at home than be towing the line for an establishment straw man. i'd have a hard time voting for romney even with RP as a running mate. i just don't see how that helps us. it'd be like voting for Dodd-Frank just for the "audit the fed" portion. sure the audit was good, although it's impact was severely diminished, but the rest of the bill's negative impact heavily outweighed the positive of the audit portion.

and you don't change this system from the outside. Our good doctor knows that. Why isn't he running third party? Because this is the only way to change the system, change the status quo and get these ideas into the mainstream way of thinking. I would vote for a Romney/Paul ticket. Why? Because Paul and his freedom, liberty and adhering to the constitution become mainstream. The body politic as well as the GOP will change and evolve. If he doesn't get the one or two slot, he becomes a footnote, it remains politics as usual or worse. I don't really care for Romney but for me he is the most benign compared to MoonNewt or the A.T.P. (American Taliban Party)If Romney is the nominee and chooses another VP I stay home. If the leader of the A.T.P. is the nominee I will vote Obama, as much as I don't want to, simply because old Frothy will have us fighting the next war in Iran real soon. That guy is a nutjob.
