Got a couple tax cuts passed, but I'd never vote for him for president. National coverage of him seemed to be very favorable, but he wasn't too awful popular in MN.
I have never watched anything with jessie ventura and it's amazing to me to think that he is such an intelligent, lucid, well spoken,and logical man considering he used to be a wrestler ?
Yeah, isn't that something, about his eloquence? He certainly puts our "war president" to shame, doesn't he? But then again, for intelligence and elequence, so does my 4 year-old nephew!
That's what it says on my satellite menu, too. That makes me cringe - particularly in light of the night we all tuned in to see Ron Paul and ended up being stuck with that know-nothing instead. Ughhhh ...
If he is great, if not April check again. I was totally pissed about the RP thing on Larry King. I told a whole bunch of people about it and he wasn't on.
Really, where DO they come up with these talking head "pundits" anyway? My old parrot could have done just as good a job as most of these MSM sellouts who do nothing but shill for the establishment. Like Jim Cramer, just a magic 8-ball with a few more phrases.
Sure --- it's held at the Dearborn Hyatt Regency Hotel (at Fairlane), and is on the 2nd weekend of April, I believe 11, 12, and 13th --- or whatever that 2nd weekend is ---- Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is the largest such show in the state, and an essentially identical one is held on Thanksgiving weekend as well. There are a great many coin dealer, also bullion dealers but no stamps. Admission is free. I would recommend going on Saturday or Sunday --- not all the dealers get there on Friday.
In case you haven't seen it - you can youtube an interview Jesse did with Donny Deutch on CNBC a couple of years back. Terrific interview! I like to hear about what he's up to from time to time as he was my governor for a bit (before I moved) ... you should check it out!
I also recommend (for those of you who have no problem with such publications!) the interview he gave to Playboy while he was governor. I don't know if it can be googled or not, since it's so old, but it is definitely worth the read!
Radio interview of some good points : Look for Monday KNARR March 17th : http://mp3.rprradio.com/1...
KEEP THIS BUMPED EVERY DAY PLEASE!
IMPORTANT : YOU PEOPLE NEED TO IGNORE THE POSTS FROM JHL - SLAPSHOT AND WRELLIM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A CLUE WHAT THE HELL THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.
You must become a delegate now call your county chairman and if they say your timeline is passed become an alternate delegate they are just as important.
I was an administrator for the Democratic party for over 6 years and i am well educated in the nomination process, I left the party to support Dr. Paul so i know what i am talking about.
Our founding fathers set the system up like this to assure that we would not have false or fruadulent support for a candidate thus forcing THE PEOPLE to become involved in the election process and to show actual support for thier candidate.
They wanted to make sure they would protect us from VOTE FRAUD and to make sure that a candidate did not win a beauty contest but instead win an election.
Any candidate and thier supporters can do exactly what we are doing if they chose to do so and i am sure from the reports we have received that Mccain does not have real support or he would have the delegates he needs registered as delegates to vote for him in the up coming convention.
If you doubt my post go and research it yourself PLEASE here : http://www.gop.com/images...
PLEASE EVERYONE COPY AND SEND THIS TO THIER EMAIL LIST AND MEETUP HEADS AND ANY OTHER RON PAUL FORUM THERE IS.
If you can be a delegate because it is too late to register you can still help us at the convention.
Use these 2 links and help us win.

Link # 2 : http://msp2008.com/volunt...
I know many of you are new to the election process but don't worry.
I am going to go into some depth of how this all works so read and then read again if you need to.
Did you know that the delegates can actually vote to unbind thier delegates that are bound by state rules?
Did you know that delegates can actually overturn and previous vote?
Did you know the delegates have control of the entire process?
The MSM is not reporting how to become the nominee in a situation like this so i will tell you to stop getting your info from the MSM.
I know many of you are bummed about Dr. Paul not getting more votes in the states popular vote BUT THAT IS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THE ELECTION SYSTEM WORKS : Let me explain to you the reality of how to become the nominee.
First stop looking at who wins each states popular vote for most of these states the vote by the people is really nothing but a straw poll and have no real bearing on who will become the nominee. The only way this matters is if 1 person receives 1191 delegates that are bound by state rules to be commited to that candidate. So if a candiate like Mccain now has 906 delegates now but he doesn't reach 1191 WHICH HE WILL NOT most of the delegates the state awarded him mean nothing and keep in mind in most of the states most of the people that represent the 906 for Mccain are actually Ron Paul supporters. NOW there is no possible way that anyone in the race can achieve this goal now because of the major split in state wins by the candidates.
Normally Convention Delegates do not matter because the convention is not brokered and we have a clear winner because someone has 1191 delegates. BUT THIS YEAR IS DIFFERENT. This will be a brokered convention there is no way around it. Do you see how the ronpaul campaign strategy will work.
When a candidate wins delegates by winning a primary that does not mean there are actual people that won acting as delegates- these are virtual delegates.
What do I mean by virtual delegates: A virtual delegate is just a number - there are no actual people YET that will go and vote for the candidate who won the particular state at the national convention. We call these people convention delegates
The actual delegates are voted on (in most states) at a statewide delegate caucus after the Primary (which is just a giant preference poll) Who can be delegates? Anyone. In closed Primary states they must be registered Republicans, in Open Primary states they can be Republicans, Democrats, Independents.
View the hard count of actaul pledged delegates here : http://www.thegreenpapers...
And we have lots of delegates.
Out of the 2,380 delegates sent to Minneapolis St. Paul in September-
-463 delegates are bound all the way through the convention some of those 463 are Ron Pauls people.
- 565 delegates will be bound through one ballot. That is, they have to follow the results of the state election on the first ballot. After that, if no candidate has a majority of delegates, they are free to vote as they please and Mccain will not receive over 50% on the first ballot.
- 383 will be bound through two ballots then they are free to vote for whom they wish.
- 318 will be bound through three ballots then they are free to vote for whom they wish.
I am not going to list every state and what the break downs are, just do the math from these numbers or look for yourself here : http://www.gop.com/Images...
Bottom line is less than 1/2 of the delegates are bound by state party rules. Now do you see how we can win this thing?
So what happens now you ask? You look at the number of delegates that Dr. Paul has that are uncommited to the other candidates and will support him. these delegates are not decided by the popular vote ie: straw poll of the people. Since no one will have enough delegates to skate them through to the nomination we now must look at how many delegates NOT VOTES but delegates Dr. Paul has that are 100% uncommited to the other candidates and will be 100% for Dr. Paul and are free to vote for whom they wish.
This race will go all the way to the convention for there is no other way for someone to receive the nomintaion untill the convention.
The RNC will convene its annual Winter Meeting - and voters will continue to cast their ballots in the nation's primaries and caucuses. Candidates for delegate and alternate delegate to the convention will be elected - and thousands of convention participants and guests will begin planning their trips to Minneapolis-Saint Paul The first week in September 2008
SO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN?
This means that all of the people that registered to become a deligate for Dr. Paul can go to the convention and cast thier vote for Dr. Paul, now think about what i just said : Do you think for one second that all the people that voted for Dr. Paul and filed to become a deligate will not show up at the convention to vote for the good Doctor? Of course they will just like they battled the rain and the sleet and the 15 below zero winter weather to knock on doors and wave signs spreading our message.
Now i assure you that even though we didn't win the popular vote in many states WE DID PICK UP THE MAJORITY OF DELEGATES THAN ALL THE OTHER CANDIDATES IN MOST EVERY STATE EXCEPT A FEW. So yes they won the straw poll and we won what counts which is delegates.
Doesn't Dr. Paul need to WIN 5 states to be on the ballot at the convention for the nomination?
NO THIS IS NOT TRUE for people were just confused on how it actually works.
We only need the majority of delegates from 5 states to be put on the ballot NOT THE POPULAR VOTE OF 5 STATES and i assure you we have picked up the majority of uncommitted delegates for Dr. Paul in more than 5 states.
Do any of you remember seeing posts by myself and many others that said BECOME A DELEGATE? There is still time in most states to become a delegate for the convention and we are picking up more of them every day.
So please STOP! you worry too much because you do not understand how the election system works and you thought we lost didn't you? I assure you we have not!
The fact is Dr. Paul is a genius in his strategy and we are further ahead in delegates than you think and we can win the nomination.
I hope this gives a better understanding of how we have been winning even though most of you thought we were not.
NOW LET'S KEEP WORKING FILE TODAY AND BECOME A DELEGATE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Jesse Ventura...for president!!?? The former wrestler-governor is back and talking politics. Where has he been - and is he really making a run for presidency?
If Ventura's running for President at this late date, he's probably just doing it to distract/draw votes away from another candidate who is outside the mainstream. (Three guesses who?)
Ventura helped Trump turn the Reform Party into a three-ring circus in 1999, if you'll recall. The GOP establishment didn't like the Reform Party, either.
All of this third-party talk from odd politicians is aimed at Ron Paul...in my opinion to confuse and split voters, in case he runs Independent after the convention in September. If Ron Paul runs independent, expect Ventura, Nader, perhaps even Bloomberg, to dive into the pool after him.
SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States
I don't think he's going to run ... he was very frustrated with politics after Minnesota, that's for sure. He may have alluded to not having the desire to seek office in the Deutch interview, if I remember it right. Perhaps King's website just says that to create some kind of lame suspense.
He seemed like a breath of fresh air...
in '98 to Minnesotans, but ended up to be a primarily self-interested, big government backer. He got us started on the light rail nightmare that is costing us big. Got a couple tax cuts passed, but I'd never vote for him for president. National coverage of him seemed to be very favorable, but he wasn't too awful popular in MN.
Crazy ?

He's one serious dude!
