— WASHINGTON -- Libertarian-leaning congressman Ron Paul is urging voters to reject John McCain and Barack Obama and support one of the third-party candidates for president. Paul, a Republican who abandoned his White House bid earlier this year, is gathering some of the candidates, independent Ralph Nader among them, on Wednesday to make his plea.

Thank you Cyndezu the Queen of digg!

Quote from http://www.campaignforliberty.com/
The strongest message can be sent by rejecting the two-party system, which in reality is a one-party system with no possible chance for the changes to occur which are necessary to solve our economic and foreign policy problems. This can be accomplished by voting for one of the non-establishment principled candidates—Baldwin, Barr, McKinney, Nader, and possibly others. (listed alphabetically)

Yes,
if we can drag enough of the vote in our direction, via a combination of all the 3rd parties, then there will be no "perceived mandate" for any eventual winner from either of the 2 parties, because "the win" consisted of less than 50% of the vote.
Then they cannot proclaim that they represent the will of the people, and just a simple "minority-majority" of somewhat less than half of the people who voted.
This could be a factor in how far they can reach with their policy-making, since it could then be constantly brought up that they have no "mandate from the people" for such actions as they may want to implement.

The DP is proof that the grassroots support for Ron Paul and his peaceful message of individual liberty is large, real, and not going away!

If this is the gist of his message...
I hope he hammers home a couple of points:
1. That a third party vote is NOT a wasted vote. Just imagine if McBama gets in with only 30-40%... there goes "consensus" out the window!
2. That the old media will try to spin this announcement as just a bunch of fringe candidates trying to steal some of the spotlight from the "major candidates". Tell the public in no uncertain terms that the "two party system" is D-E-A-D, dead! Ask them which candidates are speaking out against FISA, which candidates will bring our troops home NOW, which candidates will speak out against the abuses of the FED, and so on...
I still think he has some things up his sleeve. That sly little smile on Cavuto last night tells me there is a lot more coming!

I am so upset right now from what I am seeing playing out. McCain will win by 9%. That is my prediction......

Dear Dr. Ron Paul,
you got ONE fucking MILLION supporters willing to be cannon fodder for your revolution. for god's sake, someone fire the cannons already.

Yes. Time to put boots to the ground!
Ron Paul is the great uniter, the income tax fighter...the military-supported, defender of the border...the political apathy solution and the champion of the Constitution! Doctor Paul is on-call!
They gain your trust with some truth, then they screw you with that trust.
I'm not sure
if that's what the Dr. will do.But I don't think that if everyone avoids voting for McCain or Obama and votes third party or Independent will put a different candidate in office.Baldwin may have a similar platform to Dr. Paul but I think he has even less a chance to unseat the REP. or DEM. candidates.The same goes for Barr or Nader it will just dilute the amount of votes they get but will not keep them out of office.I will still cast a write in vote for Ron Paul counted or not.
Just imagine.
A unity party headed by Ron Paul.. I would love to see how diebold would hide that one come November.

Step one towards liberty is freedom of speech
Openning up the debates/elections is the first step in making the liberty message more available. If we can dilute the vote among 5 candidates, then those americans that believe in liberty will sometimes get a candidate in the door.
We're never going to convince everyone. Our goal right now needs to be getting representation in government that is on par with our demographics in the population. About 10% of Americans are socially liberal and fiscally conservative (aka keep gov't out of my hair). We should have at least 10% of gov't that believes in those ideas. Right now we have maybe 2-3%.
The only thing beauracracies do well is get bigger. I 100% disagree with the green party, but I'd rather have the gov't consist of 1/3 green, 1/3 republican, 1/3 democrat than 1/2 rep and 1/2 democrats, because it will be harder for them to drive a single agenda.

Um, that wouldn't cut it for me
how about the end of the FED, IRS, a currency backed by precious metals, and a return to the Constitution. This sounds like dis-info to me.
If the first part of that sentence is true...
...(about the open endorsement of the four candidates), I'm sure it was because the best that could be achieved was the second part of that sentence ("each has signed onto a policy statement..."). I guess we'll see in about 12 hours...

Do you ever wonder
if Ron Paul reads our comments here and has a little chuckle? He did say make fun buddy so there is nothing wrong with throwing ideas around. Maybe he is going to tell us he took a ticket to the Rage concert in exchange for promising to direct all of his supporters to McCain for a long run strategy ( or not so long, in McCains case) for a written promise they will drop Palin for him. As a bonus the other candidates with him at the meeting will also be welcomed warmly as part of the inner loop of the GOP now.
Ron Paul would go crazy if he read everything on the Daily Paul
I bet Nystrom tries not to get sucked into it all himself.

Here's a thought...
I may just be spit-balling here, but how about simply being PATIENT, and waiting quietly to see what he actually says tomorrow instead of once again getting hopes up, or dashing them?
I swear- sometimes I think I should've invested in Pepto Bismol and marketed it to the Daily Paul. I'd be able to cover the debt and own half the country at this rate.

Lame
If that's the announcement then it's lame. I'm writing in Ron Paul just like several other people I know about. If the campaign hasn't gotten that message yet its their own fault.
http://killfiat.blogspot.com/
That's RIGHT
WRITE-IN Ron Paul. HE is why we are on board this whole campaign. Not Barr, Baldwin and certainly not Nader for God's sake.
Dr. Paul said tonight he won't jump to another party and in a way that's good because he does a LOT of good in Congress.
But basically it's over. Nothing will change after this election. The honorable Dr. Paul carried the torch as long and far as he could. All we can do now is support the Campaign for Liberty and see where it can go.

Only One Way I'd Vote Third Party in November...
...Ron Paul as its party's presidential nomineee. As for the CP, they would be required to eliminate Darrell Castle as veep unless he gave a public apology for his no vote in Tampa on April 21, 2006(Principle Over Politics my eye) See www.covenantnews.com/newswire/archives/020518.html(Nevada Disaffiliation Roll Call Vote)
The best video clip of the past two years in my estimation: "Republican Presidential Candidate Ron Paul and Pastor Chuck Baldwin, Pastors Gathering & Forum". Got a disc from the Des Moines RP office in Dec. Chuck Baldwin did an excellent job endorsing Ron Paul in this, but Baldwin is just a political johnny-come-lately himself.
Otherwise, dittos to pawnstorm12 and others:
Write-in Ron Paul
+God will count the votes!
Boy are YOU ALL gullible...
Do you REALLY think Ron is going to give to the elitist controled AP exactly what he is going to be announcing tomorrow???
Come on you guys put your thinking caps on.....
This here might be PART of it...but nowhere near the whole deal

Carrot dangling pisses me off
I am tired of the big announcement anouncements. I think we have been on an emotional rollercoaster for 18 months. I now want solid leadership and commitments. I CAN'T VOTE 3RD PARTY as my state doesn't give me that choice. I do want to change that!
But dammit, if there is a big announcement, make it. I am still waiting to hear who the great mystery guest was going to be at the rally. I adore Ron Paul's message and I agree with 90% of it, but I want to see something earthshaking! I want him to stand up and yell that "YES, HE WILL RUN 3RD PARTY" Something to give us hope. I am tired. Tired of the sorry crap at county, state and national level!
If I was allowed to vote in the primaries in Oklahoma without being registered to one of the so-called parties I would change to independant. That too is something I want to change. All this political garbage as to 1 party or another is nothing less than raw sewage. Again, I will state, I am tired!
BRAVO...I feel the same.
In fact this whole movement is beginning to feel "adolescent" & "cultish".
Ron Paul is a man...the best man, I agree...but still a man. Let's move on to the real revolution and stop this "Idol worship". Dr. Paul wants out and he should be able to slip away if he believes he has fulfilled his task ( which was to give birth to this movement ). In my mind, he will forever be remembered as the FATHER of the movement...not the end of it !!!

Ron Paul isn't going to do jack other than keep on repeating the message he always has.
