Ron Paul is Out?!! LOL!

I just love the fact that everyone is soooooooo paranoid about "Did he quit... is it over... are we screwed... should I not continue to donate?!"
CHILL OUT PEOPLE!
Do you REALLY believe Ron Paul would let someone else tell the public that he was dropping out? C'mon folks! Get serious! The man respects us a lot more than that. He will be out when he says so himself -- it's the least he'd be willing to do.
What amazes me is how many of you that have given your life's savings away to his campaign and yet you still don't know ANYTHING ABOUT THE MAN! That is scary.
Bottom line, he's not out -- he said to please keep donating so he could continue. He also said to be delegates. The media wants him out -- and do you know why? Because if McCain gets sick or (God forbid) something bad happens to him, Ron Paul is the winner by default because he is the only candidate left in the GOP race "officially." Once you drop out, you cannot jump back in... it's in the rules.
Regardless, don't you think the media fears the worst? Believe me, they know and understand that when it comes to voting at the convention -- it's still a long ways away and anything can happen because he's (McCain) about as old as they come and not very stable in his health and mind. Besides, technically, McCain doesn't have the delegate "magic number" count anyway -- it's only assumed by the media. That's a fact too.
So if you want quit the campaign, then quit. If you don't want to donate money anymore -- then there's the door! But don't you dare start slinging mud about Ron Paul because you "thought" he quit on you. He hasn't quit -- you did.

I think the MSM keeps getting Dr. Paul confused
with RuPaul. We all know that RuPaul has been "out" since the 90's. It's old news.
Just under the radar:
He hasn't told us any fibs yet. He is in it to the RNC and so am I.
I can certainly see how having the delagates is going to work. This is a peaceful revolution, but as in all revolutions, wars, battles, much like people playing strategy games like chess or monopoly, you don't let your opponent know what you are planning. Everyone hang in there and keep doing what you're doing. Come here, share info and stratagies. I have learned tons by being here. More news that's for real on the net than anywhere. I even found a europian website that may be of some interest to everyone. Some of the authors and articles are quite eye opening and you won't hear any of it from our MSM. So everyone take a deep breath and continue on our journey.

Viva La Un-Conventional Revolution!! Conventional approaches to governance have proven to be harmful to our liberties.

McCain is going to be the
McCain is going to be the nominee. If he dropped dead tomorrow, the delegates at the convention would decide, I guess. This is:
No reason not to vote for Dr. Paul if you haven't gotten to already.
No reason not to keep spreading the message of liberty
No reason not to support local/state/congressional candidates that align with this message.
But Ron Paul will not be elected President in 2008. The point is: this isn't about a man. It's about a message. Worry about the message now.
OR....
McCain will somehow screw this "gift nomination" up -- study the man's history and you'll see history is on our side. He's already running into problems with the media.
No reason not to vote for Dr. Paul if you haven't gotten to already.
No reason not to keep spreading the message of liberty
No reason not to support local/state/congressional candidates that align with this message.
AND Ron Paul not only CAN but WILL WIN President in 2008.
The point is: You're absolutely right -- It's about the message... but a message needs to be delivered and SOMEONE has to carry it, and that someone is RON PAUL. Worry about the delivery, as the message has always been there but people don't care to listen. We need someone who has a voice that people will respect... only then will people listen.
=) this is real ....... Ron
=) this is real ....... Ron Paul is the face .... The message is his soul ... we are the body ... the country is is the environment , and earth is the planet(no sh!t)
paradigm shifts are contageous when truth is being spoken and love is showin
NY Times Verifies McCain delegates...
Finally, media reporting the truth about the delegate count.
They actually even have the balls to show Ron Paul with delegates!
Even though they appear to have the wrong number, as usual.
Check it:

The NY Times hates McCcain
In the beginning they rather liked McCain, but it now seems they are doing everything they can to bury him lately. I never liked the NY Times -- but I am glad they don't like McCain anymore.
They still
They still list Ohio's delegates as bound. Subtract another 85 from that total.
it never ceases to amaze me
the msm will only pick up or *hear* what they want to in his speeches.
ron paul may have said that his campaign will soon be "winding down," but he also said:
- that he will continue to compete in all of the remaining primaries & caucuses
&
- that the campaign needs more donations from supporters to move forward.
why would a presidential campaign ask for donations if he's quitting? what idiots.
is this the only way he can get adequate media coverage, when the msm believes it is finally able to breathe a sigh of relief that the man they fear is out of the race?
how pathetic.
I'm in til the END

And many more. Once ya go over the limit, they gotta give the overage to the GOP. Help'em people... don't doubt for one second.. If we let him slip, its our fault!!! The crooks are scared to death! Do you know how BIG this is??? "When walls come tumbling down..."
Remember the past as you look forward to today...
Funny
Funny, this is the first time in a good while that the media acknowledged Ron Paul was still running. Maybe Ron did it on purpose to let people know that he is still around.
Actually, that is a great
Actually, that is a great point and I was just thinking it myself. I wouldn't be a bit surprised that RP knew exactly what to say and what Jesse would say and how the media would eat it up and run with it. Neither of them said they were dropping out -- they only mentioned the campaign was winding down, which it is and has been for a while now. Think about it -- they all link to the video on Ron Paul's web site... and if anyone were to view it, they would clearly see that he isn't dropping out at all. Then they could also say to themselves, "Hmm... here are some other videos, let me check them out and see what's he all about." (ha!)
German Friend of the rEVOLution
Happy to see it is still on. Dr. Paul is doing great. Don't get confused by the MSM. Just stay your course.
Dr. Paul cured my apathy
Warum organisiert Ihr euch nicht da drueben
und spendet ein wenig geld hier und da beim T-shirts, pings, ... kaufen von der offiziele webseite? Es waere sehr hilfreich fuer RP!
Oh, we do
Look at this bilingual side with its forum and all the links to European blogs supporting Ron Paul:
http://www.ronpauleurope....
American Paulists are welcome on the forum! And visit our very active German-speaking Ron Paul blogs. Mit Deinem hervorragenden Deutsch wirst Du Dich dort gut zurechtfinden:

And there are individuals who make their contributions by buying Fan articles. But we are dedicated but still few people and our financial recources, I am afraid, will not bring you far. We are more or less lone preachers in the desert and really in for a long haul in Europe. So I personally see our main contribution in spreading the message in our countries, talking with American people we meet about Ron Paul and sometimes to chear people up on the US-Forums when times get rough. We know its not only a fight for the American people!
Dr. Paul cured my apathy
Very nice
I wasn't aware of all these sites, Thank you :)
Colognepaulist,
"We know its not only a fight for the American people!"
You are so right on that one! Lone preachers in the desert also in the Netherlands. Europeans keep accepting the crap from the EU, or maybe people just don't know how to resist the influence of EU lawmaking on every aspect of their life. Europe needs a Ron Paul rEVOLution too!

We don't need the media, we need to depend on ourselves!
Ignore the media, get out of their system, think for yourself. We have money and we will donate when the time is right. Many of us were unsatisfied with the way the campaign people spent the money, since giving it to a media who rejects our candidate doesn't seem wise. What we need to hear from the campaign is how are they going to spend the money. We will be there if the money is spent wisely, since we trust Ron Paul, but are cautious about the campaign people. Ron Paul trusts us too and he needs to understand that we will be there for him when he needs us. First though we need to get to work, spend our money on signs, slimjims, trip to Washington. The weather is getting better and we will be demonstrating all over the country, not just in Washington. In front of every public location, not afraid and willing to put up a fight for our R3VOLUTION!!!
Amen
Another voice of reason!
Psssss, let's give them the impression the revolution is done, RP is out and that we dropped the ball.
In meanwhile, we will be canvassing, holding signs, regsitering as precinct leaders, getting delegates... spreading the message.
May be McInsane will stop campaigning in the rest of the states which didn't vote yet? He doesn't have the money nor the support anyway!
Go Paul GO
And if I catch ANY &*(&*^ Throwing Mud At RP, I ll flag his Post because this can be nothing else but A *()$ Troll
"God forbid something bad happens to him"
Sometimes bad things happen to BAD people. And sometimes it's a blessing of relief that the bad person isn't suffering anymore.
What are the rules about suspending a campaign? Is there a time frame for re-entering?
Suspension
Don't forget, Ron Paul never said that he was "SUSPENDING" the campaign, only Romney did. Now the question is.... if Romney "suspended" his campaign and went so far as to endorse another candidate and encourage his delegates to vote for that candidate is Romney past "the point of no return" according to the rules? I think that he should be, but I am sure that will be argued should McInsane be unable to continue.
Didn't you hear? Romney
Didn't you hear? Romney actually dropped out officially about a week later after his "suspension" and endorsed McCain. He released his delegates too.
I Suppose....
If Dr Paul hasn't quit than neither have I. I will just write him in. It's real simple.
In a Dictatorship:There is no choice. The elections are controlled. The police are the military. Fear equals control. Speech is suppressed. The economy is looted. The people are slaves.
Ignore the media?
Why doesn't the campaign ignore the media too?
It would sure save us a lot of trouble.
Ignore the media? Are you
Ignore the media? Are you joking? (LOL!) Isn't it the opposite? We want the media coverage but we're not getting enough of it. Jesse used a poor choice of words that could easily be construed as "We're out!" But he didn't say "We're out!" CNN just interpreted it that way.
We can't kill someone for making a mistake -- and the campaign has made them, sure enough -- but nobody's perfect. The bottom line, we are for Ron Paul -- and his campaign is a part of him. If and when he decides to quit, then we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. But to tell people to quit on his campaign is telling people to quit on him -- and that kind of support nobody needs. If you don't like it, then quit. Why are you still here hanging around?
Spoken like a true supporter
and the name blaze shows the fire of your conviction. What was interesting whenever this is a little bit of doubt here on this site, it brings the few here who are total RP traitors to show their true colors, could hardly contain their excitement at the possibility of him dropping out. Really worth LOL, they are so transparent.
Isn't it funny how the MSM missed the ending?
Isn't it funny how the MSM missed the ending of the video? Towards the ending of the video (around the 5 minute mark) while discussing the march, he even says, "My early reservations regarding the possible downside risk for the Presidential campaign has been reinforced by logistical, legal and practical reasons. For that reason, the Presidential campaign will not be the organizer of any one event."
Umm... H E L L O M S M !!! He cannot organize th March because of his "Presidential Campaign" -- which he then also suggests to take place around June 21. Now, if he "Dropped out" -- then why can't he organize the march? The MSM are such idiots. They are graping at straws -- and it really makes them look pathetic.
It's about liability
I believe that the reason that the Presidential Campaign can not "officially" organize the D.C. March is because of liability. My husband is a performer and here in SF he has to purchase insurance just to perform on a street corner! Can you IMAGINE the kind of price tag an insurance company would charge Dr. Paul to officially sponsor an event the size and scale of a March?
I am sure to get the necessary permits and such proof of that type of insurance would be required. However if individuals take it upon THEMSELVES to "show up" in D.C. on June 21st and march and Dr. Paul just so happens to be there and we all just so happen to meet up on public property, people are assuming responsibility for their own safety.
I am no lawyer but this is how I see it.
received e-mail from local office in WA.
one of the quote from e-mail. " We will still be operating on the premise that "anything can happen" and ignore the press. Although the campaign may be less visible...(there will be more leaders going to volunteer status)...our strength, numbers and influence will and must continue to grow."
So stop wining and get to work!

Let's not forget
The MSM has got this wrong before. The only news they are anxious to give is news that Ron Paul is dropping out. Then we have these known infiltrators on this board and all of a sudden post validating that Ron Paul has quit.
Doesn't that seem a little bit fishy?
It sure does to me.
Quit the campaign- not Ron Paul
He has my utmost respect. But the question here is whether to trust the campaign. Throwing money at problems does not solve them. It makes them bigger.
I won't believe it
Until I get an email about it. Being a precinct leader I would expect such an email before the major media gets a hold of the story.
Nothing in the inbox yet ...
and you won't get it either.
and you won't get it either. The man is in it for the long haul and he has told us that as long as we still want him in the race, he will ride it out until the convention.
OK. So what is YOUR solution?
Tell perspective voters that, "Oh, all the media totally lied and we don't even care?"
Yes -- because it's the
Yes -- because it's the truth. Isn't it amazing at how simple the truth is yet people make it so complicated? Fatima, it begins with YOU -- not them. You have to believe in it first, the rest will come in time. If you know anything about McCain, then you'd know it will only be a matter of time before he messes up AGAIN. The man has a track record of messing up. Just be patient. You are the one who needs to believe, because when the time comes and people start asking, "What other choice do we have?" -- then it will be time for YOU to start convincing them. It's all about timing. If you don't have the patience, then again, there's the door. Ron Paul is not begging anyone to stay -- he's only telling it like it is, just as he's always been doing it.
Amen
