Some Ron Paul Supporters Are Still in Denial
Submitted by LibertyChat on Thu, 08/23/2012 - 07:16http://libertychat.com/some-ron-paul-supporters-are-still-in...
Here’s one headline on DailyPaul.com
“Wow, what a genius move by Ron Paul”
The article goes on to say “I think I see where this is going and I believe the master minds Doug Wead and Dr. Ron Paul have got the 2012 republican nomination won”
That was not posted a few months ago, that was posted today. Days before the convention, and months since Ron Paul all but quit the race. While I respect the passion of Ron Paul supporters, I think this is borderline delusional. I’m more likely to believe that Gary Johnson has a chance of winning, than believe Ron Paul is gonna steal the nomination.
I’m concerned some Ron Paul supporters will need counseling before they can accept that Paul won’t win the nomination. I say this as a Ron Paul supporter, who wanted nothing more than for Dr. Paul to win. Sadly, it’s not going to happen. It’s counterproductive to believe otherwise. Time to focus on a future strategy for the movement.



















I mean you're right
But this has been going on for a very long time. i was kind of worried about it but people were extremely rude when I tried to fill them in. They aren't having it so let it be, not hurting anyone. I think they will be fine if RP doesn't get it, a little depressed for a bit but life goes on.
Of course
You get voted down for stating the obvious. Ron Paul is a sincere, principled human being. Unfortunately, he was surrounded by parasites who saw an opportunity to get rich by milking his supporters.
Did you ever notice that Ron Paul always talks about foreign policy — from a constitutional, financial and, most importantly, ethical standpoint? This is one of his most important contributions. But I get regular emails from C4L and they almost never mention foreign policy. When they do, it's done briefly and worded so as not to offend neocon sensibilities. And this is how Ron's campaign was run, too. No ads promoting his foreign policy views. Trying to hide them and trying to fool people.
The parasites were never interested in the ideas of liberty. They wanted to secure positions for themselves in the Republican machine. They took the campaign far enough to have gotten some bargaining chips. They took advantage of Ron Paul supporters for this purpose. Imagine them stepping on your heads to reach the cookie jar on top of the refrigerator, and you'll have the right idea.
Now, if you're paying attention, you'll see that the parasites actually HATE Ron Paul's supporters. More than anything, they fear that Ron Paul supporters will mess up the deal they made with the Republicans at the convention in Tampa. Do you think the parasites will rush to your defense when the police are beating you with their batons, or tazering you, to prevent you from straying from the script at Romney's coronation? Keep dreaming. They are probably the ones giving the orders.
I AM NOT IN DENIAL!!!
I crack myself up.
the battle isn't over until it's over so why . . .
surrender?
I don't understand this. Are *you* worried about the mental health of Ron Paul supporters/liberty lovers?
Really?
I don't think anyone knows what is going to happen, because this is the first time that anyone has challenged the GOP from 'within'--
I suspect your perspective, and I am one of those who is not even sure I want Dr. Paul in the White House (not because I don't think he would do a good job, but because I fear he would just be hijacked)--
this is premature--
so what if people are disappointed as long as the race was won with enthusiasm?
This is like saying, "don't try to win a game; don't even join the athletic event, even if you have trained; there will be someone else bigger and stronger"--
No.
I reject this notion.
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--
You seriously don't know what's going to happen?
Allow me to fill you in! Romney will be the GOP nominee for President, he'll win the nomination on the 1st ballot.
Ryan will be the GOP nominee for Vice President, he'll also win the nomination on the 1st ballot.
I'm not saying to give up the fight to take over the GOP. But the fight to win the nomination is over and the other guy won.
The GOP is constantly challenged. In recent times Robertson challenged them in '88 and Buchanan challenged them in '92 and '96.
and why does it matter . . .
to talk about it now--
I agree in the power of the 'one'--
I guess we just don't see things the same way. You are PROBABLY right--
but why talk about it now?
THAT is my urgent question--
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--
at the very least we're forcing them to push for an audit of the
federal reserve. if we can push one issue, we can push 2, then 3, so on. i call that success. and no, it wasn't gary johnson/LP that made it happen.
For starters
Ron Paul has no intention of stealing anything unlike your guys Romney and obama. Keep it up You psyops paid operative and the faux news.
Ron Paul is da man.
yup
Guess I'm going to bear the cold chill of negative votes as well but I have noticed this for some time. There is optimism and there is just not facing the facts. Don't be let down when the republican shills continue to be just that.

Know your stuff, learn real history and economics @LibertyClassroom.com
the fact is that sometimes . . .
those who don't appear they are going to win DO win--
and even if they don't . . . the effort is what counts--
don't predict disaster--
something good could still happen; it may not be what *we* want, and nobody distrusts the GOP as I do--
but don't give up before making the effort--
I say.
I've gone ahead and 'fought' when I thought I was defeated and had some kind of triumph, even if it wasn't the 'win' I thought I wanted--
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--
Some people on this site are trolls
Some people on this site are trolls, and never supported Ron Paul ever.
"Rule Number One: Obey ALL rules!!"
Ron Paul 2012!
You will be able to tell...
You will be able to tell for sure who they are after the election because you will not hear from them again until the next election.

Nope, just praying for a Miracle!
Godspeed Dr. Paul all the way to the White House!
AMEN. We need to bring the
AMEN. We need to bring the Spirit of Truth back.
Same here bear
To put your trust or hope in man is foolishness.
There are still believers here, and we hold to Him who alone can turn this all around when there seems to be no hope at all.
Keep on praying brothers and sisters!
" In Thee O Lord do I put my trust " ~ Psalm 31:1~
Yes, and my concern is that
Yes, and my concern is that we may well get what we deserve as a nation who has forgotten God unless mercy is shed upon us. May the Kindness of God lead us to repentance.
Romans 2:4
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
Exactly!
Seeing that things surely look impossible for us right now, this is good in that should the Lord have mercy on us and answer our cry, it will be to show all that He alone has done this.
If He does not, then may we fully be chasten for our grievous sins as a nation.
We are presently reaping much of what we have sown as a nation.
There are some here who think our hope and our faith is delusional and absurd, but we who know Him and look unto Him, know otherwise.
We know not what a day may bring forth, but we know Him who knows all things and moves the hearts of kings as the rivers of water.
We are commanded to pray about everything and to put our trust in the Lord, and so we do.
Keep praying for mercy and waiting upon Him!
" In Thee O Lord do I put my trust " ~ Psalm 31:1~
You are a wimp and can't handle the threat of disappointment
I remain optimistic and fully ENJOY discussions of how the historic win of Ron Paul may go down. I'm not afraid of losing. Apparently, it would be too much for your faint heart to take. You can't fathom how people could possibly still cling to hope after so much discouragement. You couldn't possibly imagine how we could resiliently bounce back after a set back.
Regardless of whether RP gets the nod, I will be involved in my local government and share the philosophy that I learned through RP. We want RP to win and will do everything in our power, including group prayer/meditation (Ron Paul wins nomination), but we know it's about the message, not the man. An RP win would indicate that the message is spreading quickly. If it turns out to be a slower pace, then so be it. You're clearly not in it heart and soul. If you are, then start praying.
You just wait liberychat. you
You just wait liberychat. you just wait as it's far far FAR from over!!!!!!!! I have it on good info that one of his supporters will be building a time machine soon so yeah, we can't rule him out getting the nomination until 2013 when this machine is invented and the time line is altered. Yeah this is it, woo hoo now where is that talking invisible cat that told this to me. Just don't call me delusional as that invisible talking cat is real and I'll prove it, here is his picture:
Time will tell buddy, if you
Time will tell buddy, if you want take the red pill and fall back into zombie land cause your watching to much msm
Luckily
we have you here to save us from our folly.

They may be in de Nile, but it's better than trying to head up
the ol' creek without a paddle. :)
Hard to strike the "balance" in life
There is a very thin line between doing your very best..... and yet remaining stoically realistic. If you can walk that line you will be happy in life.
I would advise everyone going to Tampa to ...
- take your umbrellas and rain gear
- do your very best
- remember that in later years you will look back on this trip as one of the most important and memorable in your life, and treat the trip that way
- Know that no matter WHAT happens, you are and have been making a difference. The society IS changing.
- and finally HAVE A GREAT TIME as you gather with fellow Ron Paul supporters from all over the world.
It's gonna be a Hell of a week... but ENJOY IT and REMEMBER IT and don't ruin it for yourselves by allowing the turkeys to get you down.
THANK YOU to all of the Revolution troops!

November 6th 2012 I voted for Dr.Ron Paul
"We must remember, elections are short-term efforts. Revolutions are long-term projects." ~ Ron Paul
nomination day?
When does the voting begin? Is it on first day (27th) or last day?
Voting is on Monday early
The usual Fl. tropical storm will be a catagory 1/2 storm of 45 mph winds and begins at 8pm on Monday. This should put a damper on the "paid to riot hired thugs" of obama's and Romney's as well as the DHS police designed to blame liberty peeps and put shame game onto us.
Dress for the occassion.
Ron Paul is da man.
