Should Ron Paul Run as a Libertarian Candidate? POLL

believed to be Bob Barr of Georgia. His press conference is Monday to announce, so they say...

Ron can't run for the LP nomination without giving up all GOP convention opportunities -- no possibility for a speech, no possibility for his delegates to prevail in a brokered convention. That's because the LP convention nominates their candidate BEFORE the GOP convention.

We don't have the time to wait 2-3 election cycles to work from the ground up. We need an immediate splash so we can sweep through in the next cycle. That is having RP as President. I am completely for a third party run and my stimulas check is his to run on. If all RP supporters handed over their stimulas, we'd set records.

That would just be insanity. No third party candidate can win in this country, not even Ron Paul, and we would be giving up our only Constitutional champion in Congress.

Ron Paul will know what he is going to do. If he is willing to give up his seat and put all of his eggs in one basket, then ok. We are going to have to be patient through September. Do any of us have that patience? Just stick this out through September and try to get him the nomination. Remember the letter from the European American about How Ron Paul Will Win. He might win. Let's try it. Let's go for it.

Freedom is not FREE!!

Let's look at the truth. Can we raise 100,000,000 to 150,000,000 in two months time? I think we can. I truly beleive that a money raising venture could be put together to support and elect Ron Paul. I also think that the grassroots would have to convince him to do a Perot Infomercial to finally get his agenda across. Is anyone inclined to help take this on? We all know that he is the best candidate for this time in our lives.

What happens if we raise the money and he doesn't run? Could we then create a organization that would help elect Ron Paul type individuals and use the money raised for that purpose?

My DARE is this!

Raise the money! Dare Ron Paul to take it and run third party! I think with that amount of cash on hand he would do it. He KNOWS he is the last hope we have at this time in our lives. He also knows that the economy is not going to make it until 2012.

Just my $0.02 worth.

This is not about Ron Paul. "revolution" isn't a stupid PR campaign slogan, and the principles of liberty, the restoration of the Constitution and the Rule of Law is what we're about. Dr Paul has already done enough by going to the convention. It's on us now. From every county board seat to US Senate seat, and everywhere in between, we need to be putting candidates up ... for this election, for 2010, 2012 and beyond. We need to go to city council meetings and demand solutions to city finance with out property taxes that nullify property ownership rights. We need to make a habit every time we're at the bank, to ask for Liberty dollars, request they stock them, and explain our dissatisfaction with the Federal Reserve System. If millions of us stand up for principle in our daily lives, and we participate in our government, we will win our freedom.

But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does. - James 1:25

If we can't get him the GOP ticket through a brokered convention then no he most certainly does not need to run third party and give up his congress seat!!. I would rather he stay in congress and we all help put other people like him in congress as well.

We can all say what needs to be done, but who here led by example today?

Dr. Paul needs to stay a Republican. He has explained the problems facing a third party candidate in Presidential elections. We here in his district will be re-electing him to Congress. A sizeable write in vote on the national level would make an immediate statement to the Republican Party. They're already quite aware of the Revolution.

After a couple more years of business as usual in Washington, the Revolution will gain control of the Republican Party if not the country.

Viva la Revolucion.

No.
Like he has said, "it takes someone like Ross Perot" who has the money to run on a Independent ticket.

But, you said Libertarian, about the same funds available? And, the States make it "difficult to impossible" to get on the ballot. This is the typical response and that is why.

Ron Paul could not run for president ,But we could draft Ron Paul for a write in candidate,Think about if there were at least a million of us who voted for Paul now if each got 10 people to vote for Ron Paul we would have it made except Im not sure how we would collect delegates for a write in

I'm gonna vote for him regardless of party....

While I can't tell anyone how and who to vote for, I think those who have voted for Ron Paul should write him in.

He should get those million votes cast for him in the primaries.

He should get those and the Libertarian and Constitution Party Votes as well.

At least, I hope so.
