I Feel Like Ron Paul Just Broke Up With Me

0 votes

It feels like a "Dear John" letter. You know the nice kind you get from the lover who really wants to leave you but is too nice to just come out and say it. I'm tired. I know Ron has to be tired. I will always respect and admire him. I will mope a little while but then wake up tomorrow ready to go again. Ron has more up his sleeve, either that or he is not what I had hoped him to be. Let a thousand more Ron Pauls arise out of this! I am not smart enough to be one but I am not afraid to shoot. Come get me NWO! I'm begging you! But I promise you this, I will take a couple of you bastards out with me!

RON PAUL WILL WIN THIS ELECTION.

I HAVE NO DOUBT IN MY MIND.

government of the people, by the people, for the people

today

is a sad day, but neverheless, the bleeding lion will keep marching.

I agree his letter seems

I agree his letter seems that way in tone, but he is being honest. He plans to keep running, but he simply has to pay more attention to keeping his seat in congress. It would be a greater disaster for all of us if he lost his congressional seat than the bid for the presidency. It's really a smart move to have a back-up plan. As long has he stays in the race, he will get valuable exposure in future debates--even with the stingy amount of time they will give him. And that exposure, however brief, will win more converts to his cause.

His ongoing run, no matter how scaled down, still makes him the fly in the ointment for the neocons and the news media. His treatment by the corrupt media system will stand as a witness for others to refer to in the future--and believe me, if they did this to him, they will do it to others, and Ron Paul's name will be referred in future books as a classic textbook case of media assassination.

I think we should stay in the GOP

That's what Ron is doing and it's also sending the message that if we want to change the system, we must bring about the change within the belly of the beast. I never knew what is meant to be libertarian before I heard of Ron Paul - and although I agree with most of their values - it seems that the system is too biased against 3rd parties in so many areas. We have to educate and take back the GOP by making them realize that it's become too much of a top/down organization. The grassroots must bring about change from the bottom; the voters, the constituents.

Don't forget, "The Revolution: A Manifesto"

I believe the book will bring clarity of purpose and will be a guide to where we go from here. I can't wait, I need to read that book ASAP!

Nothing has changed

Nothing has changed. Dr. Paul has always been realistic about his chances. He has always stressed that this revolution is not about him, nor about one election. This is only the beginning. We are trying to overcome an entrenched establishment; we are trying to repair decades of damage. This won’t happen in one election.

What now? Keep doing what we’ve been doing. Donate to the campaign, or grassroots efforts, canvas neighborhoods, talk to friends and family, vote or caucus for Dr. Paul, become a delegate.

I’ve always hoped for a win, and still do. But I’ve also recognized the importance making a strong showing. We must show the world that their are still Americans who stand for liberty. We are not going to just go away, and we are going to get stronger!

Cmon man fight!!! Ron is the

Cmon man fight!!! Ron is the easiest fight right now. Get involved in a local group to fight aginst corrupt government. Keep fighting from every angle, lets impeach some corrupt goverment official somehwere!!!
Support Ron Paul
join local group fighting corruption
If no group exists- Start one.
Teach the constitution
if you dont know the constitution- learn it.
Have a town meeting and show freedom to facsism

Battle Battle Battle!!!!!! We need to use the passion people used for RP to continue in these other areas too.

Exacty right!

As for me and my house we

As for me and my house we are sticking with Ron Paul to the very end. I will be voting in March in Texas for my favorite guy Ron Paul. In Nov. election if Ron Pauls name is not on the ballot I will be writing it in. I love Ron Paul.

I was upset, but then I remembered what the Doctor said...

"It's not me, it's the message... and I happen to be lucky enough to be a part of it." - Ron Paul
"It's not me, it's the message... and I happen to be lucky enough to be a part of it." - Ron Paul

He's just being honest. The chances are slim - is that so hard to hear? Is it wrong to hear? If you have a 10% chance of surviving an operation, wouldn't you RATHER know so you can better prepare?

I'm not stopping.

The ENTIRE campaign Ron was saying, "it's not me, it's the message." Did the message suddenly die because he cuts back in the states where primaries and caucuses have already taken place? Not at all!

The fact is Ron Paul reignited our original revolution, and has ignited in me something I will never extinguish. And to think, I never even met the guy...

It comes down to this: "Lead, follow, or get out of the way" - Thomas Paine

Helping to Restore the Republic.

You are a wacko

If you think Ron Paul facing reality, how ever you interpret that letter, is equal to him breaking up with you.

I am sorry if that sounds harsh. But some time you smack someone back into reality.

Jeff do you have other words in your vocabulary

Every time I read any post of yours you ALWAYS seem to use adjectives to describe people on this site....and not good ones either.....these include

Wacko
Nut job
Kooks
Truthers
Losers
Nazis

Man you are a depressing person.

Do you ever speak an EDIFYING word to anybody? Do you always sit as JUDGE?

This actually speaks more about yourself than anything.

If the shoe fits

Does your freedom

depend on Ron Paul? No! It depends on you and you alone.

The is no power greater than the made up mind.

Make up you mind: WE WIN - THEY LOSE.

Distribute the Russo DVD.
Distribute the Paul DVD.

I want RON PAUL

end of story for me.

Bad Letter...But We Still Have A Chance

There's no beating around the bush. That "break up" letter knocked the WIND out of my sails. Come on, Dr. Paul. If you're trying to send us a coded message at least sound like a fighter. The people you need to trim down on the campaign are those paid idiots who tied the hands of grassroots and local meetup groups from effectively reaching the GOP. Bring in some full time volunteers or pay them half price.

I'm not giving up on Ron Paul! But who in tarnations advised him to write this passion-less communication to the Ron Paul Revolutiom?

I agree....passion-less

that is what the email was....passion-less. It took the wind out of my sails too.

Many are just now waking up and seeing this in their inboxes...it does feel like a kick in the gut.

RP said ONWARD!

Obviously a failure on our Dept of Ed. Please learn to read.

You big dummy, the email was very simple.
HE'S GOING TO KEEP FIGHTING ON IN THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE
He's also running for his congressional seat

He cut down his staff a little bit because he knows this isn't going to convention as easily if Romney stuck around. He's going to focus on Individual states so he himself can force the convention.

He can't run as an Independent because he wouldn't be able to run for his congressional seat.

This is no concession speech, this is an email letting you know that he is going to keep fighting.

Hey, I read it too, and it sounded like a concession speech

to me.

Why do you feel like it wasn't? This is the problem that I have with the letter, b/c of its vagueness there is ONCE AGAIN alot of needless confusion.

If you look at this site and the forums that are listed ....there is a 50/50 split as to the meaning of the letter. Why would Dr. Paul send a letter to his supporters that would be so vague and could be interpreted to mean two different things?

What is the signal that he is giving to those of us that have primaries coming up? It sure doesn't sound very motivating to me.

Vagueness?

From the daily dose:
Ron Paul is not going to surrender, and John McCain will not take the Republican nomination without the fight of his life. Your donations and work as Precinct Leaders are needed now more than ever. Thank you all for everything you’ve done so far — the revolution has just begun.

I dare say that Ron Paul

I dare say that Ron Paul would have never added Pape and Hadar to the Campaign the other day if he were even close to dropping out. Please, get a grip!

those were good signs, but why the confusion of the letter then?

I was glad to see those people too. I just feel deflated and irritated right now.

This was not a good letter. PERIOD. Why would he send out an email like that after hiring those guys? Wouldn't it have been better to state.." Look, I've hired pape and Hadar to take this campaign in a new direction to re-organize, re-invigorate...and I am not going anywhere!"....Nope, he didn't do that. He didn't even mention them.

Does my burka make my butt look fatwa?

I didn't like the letter

It just left me with alot of questions.

As a family of 6 we have given money many times to this campaign, we have sign waved, we have written emails, we have called organizations and asked for their support, we have called other states during the primaries to get out the vote, we have asked our friends for their vote....

all of that being said....I guess I just figured out why the letter left me feeling blah...THERE WAS NO PASSION.

I have not liked how the campaign has been run. There seemed to be no strategy. There seemed to be no coordination with the grassroots. There are many popular Dr. Paul websites ( DailyPaul, RonPaulForums, Paulenteer, ect) that the campaign could have had better communication with and linked to. The entire Facebook & MySpace communities were not utilized effectively, the campaign could have HARNESSED the collective communities POWER and INFLUENCE alot better but chose not to.

And then the commercials....enough said.

I told my husband the other night that the one thing that Ron Paul missed out on was not using the theme REVOLUTION to his advantage. This was a HUGE oppurtunity MISSED.
I just wish he would have taken the 8 million that was raised over his 4th qtr goal of 12 million and bought nat'l advertising on the big networks to get his message out there. Even if it was some of the youtube commercials...it would have given an impression to the MASSES that this is not a typical campaign, this is WAY DIFFERENT, they don't do the typical commercials or anything else typical.

I believe that if Dr. Paul had used the 8 million on young, fresh, hip commercials nationwide, the grassroots would have given more IMMEDIATELY. This was the one thing that everyone wanted, nat'l commercials....and HQ dropped the ball on this, it never gave the grassroots what it asked for.

Our family loves Ron Paul. We will support him. I do have to wonder about his congressional seat...(we are from Texas and Dr. Paul has always won his seat by a wide margin, so I don't know why there is such concern this time....we will see).

The whole thing, this email that was just sent, has raised many questions in my mind. This was not handled the right way, we deserved better. It was such a wet blanket email. As the scripture says, "I would rather you be HOT or COLD, not lukewarm."

With all that said, I have peace.

I realize that the judgement of Yahweh will come quickly and speedily now. For America DESERVES the leaders it has chosen. America will get EXACTLY what it has sown over the years.
Just think about it. America has sown such corruptness in the lives of many nations, has sown war (and nuclear bombs) and killed hundreds of thousands for SELFISH GAIN and with zero compassion.
America has caused other countries to live in poverty while our citizenry have acted as gluttons enjoying the best that the world has to offer and then whining about everything, never having grateful & humble hearts for the prosperity given.

So the RECKONING has come. The judgement is secure. The country is fallen.

I hope people are prepared. I feel that there are many on this site that are.

But for most, they are not. They will awaken on the morning of the COLLAPSE of AMERICA and wonder "HOW and WHY"...?? It will be too late.

For America to be restored to its foundation.....a LEVELING must come.

Let the LEVELING begin.

Leveling...

What a smashing idea... :D

WAKE UP AMERICA

RP, has had a dose of reality!! He knows the Republicn establishment has beaten him out of th presidency by Romney suspending his efforts.

This is all very bad news for America, our chance to have a President with real leadership abilitiy is gone.

We only have one option left, convince RP that for America's sake (and ours) please consider running as an independent.

To convince him we need only flood his office with our email messages all title Go RP for Third Party!

We then fill his cofers with money!!!!!!!!

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KT

KT

WTF!

Romney has only suspended! That means his name will still be on ballots, his supporters will still vote for him and that means more votes taken from McStain. Now...as far as 3rd party goes please stop asking for Ron to go that route because I'm sure he knows all too well what he his is doing, to suggest otherwise implies that you know more about this than he does.....and that is just not true! Dose of reality? WELL! Bombarding HQ with bs emails about independant crap is only wasting
their time! Let them be! or better yet, draft yourself and run third.
