keep the obective in your sights

PLEASE don't banty words with what is, not for the cause right now ..You mix people up ,with the wrong pathway to 3rd party recognition....That ,should be your objective ,not who is the better candidate ..That comes later...
weee

see to your liberty

I like Baldwin's position on this issue

and am wondering when they will interview him on the subject.
His campaign is contacting these shows every day.

Barr is MSM approved as an alternative. I wonder why....

He was a member of Congress

He was a member of Congress and is known. Who is Baldwin?

He's the Ron Paul endorsed candidate

for President. Where you been?

They have been asking Ron Paul who he would endorse FOREVER, the question seemed very important to them. So now they have the answer, they should put him on the tube and find out who he is.

i thought barr dropped out.

--------------
if you build it he will come..........Ron Paul 2012.

Isn't the Libertarian Party

trying to sue to have Barr removed from Libertarian Ballot??

Obama = O.ne B.ig A.ss M.istake A.merica

No, there was a faction

who were upset that he didn't go to Paul's press conference, but it failed to get any motions.

No, the money kept coming in to his campaign.

I'm not sure but it seemed to increase after he rejected the 3rd party press conference, and pushed his fundraising above the $1 milllion mark. That's pretty good considering he's pretty unknown. Dr. Paul didn't start getting a lot of funding until he appeared in the debates.

Not really.

George Phillies ran the numbers. Barr's funds are about typical LP levels.

So much for the $40M wet dream he promised. HAHAHA!

No, He's Continually Shooting Himself

it just appears that way.

Of course he's on Dr. Paul's side...

He uses Paul's name & platform anytime he can because he wants his supporters (which he won't get). Barr is a neo-con in Libertarian clothing.

Obama = O.ne B.ig A.ss M.istake A.merica

Same of Baldwin

I thought Barr totally dissed all of Pauls supporters. Which one is it.

By the way on Barrs latest comments. If you really think Dr. Paul has been a good leader in the movement your are insane. His campaign was a mess and he never effectively communicated his message to the people. He is a policy man who speaks the truth about issues we like. Most people hear didnot know shit about the Federal Reserve before Oct of last year, like me.

Barr HAS No Message.

If that is what you think

you have no business on this site. This is a RON PAUL SUPPORT SITE. Run along to your Barr site. And your post just verifies that you're the one who doesn't know shit. Especially when it comes to Dr. Paul.

Obama = O.ne B.ig A.ss M.istake A.merica

Baldwin is a tyrant wrapping

Baldwin is a tyrant wrapping himself in the Constitution.

Now, what have we achieved with this negativity?

If he's a neo-con

then why does he advocate a non-interventionist foreign policy?

He changes

his platform to whatever movement seems to be rising at the moment. He wasn't always against non-intervention policy; he just doesn't have the stable background & integrity of Dr. Paul

Obama = O.ne B.ig A.ss M.istake A.merica

Ok, but if that's what he's running on,

then votes for him will be seen as support for that platform.

Hell

Bob Barr will stand on every platform out there just to sink votes..Hurray for Barr.

yeah

Just use the CIA to do the small stuff. No need to bring armies into it. Go Newuser.

What, You Don't Want A President Who. . . .

. . . thinks it's Constitutional to have a tax that tracks EVERY SINGLE COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION for the purpose of revenue-raising?

If you people would line up

If you people would line up behind Barr, he would probably soon poll high enough to get in the debates and actually give this movement a voice as we approach the election.

Or, you could just continue to act like a bunch of petty hero-worshippers who would rather create a religion around a man than create a politcal force around a philosophy.

Oh, he`s the lesser of 3 evils. I`ll go for honesty,not evil.

Ron Paul specifically decided to endorse Baldwin because of Barr

That says a lot. I think Ron Paul always had doubts about Barr, so did I.

There's probably much more about Barr that we don't need to or don't want to know.

Yeah get a portion of america

That now stands for Principle to get behind a guy who backstabbed Ron Paul and continued to after he backed out of signing the unity pack and the 4 resolutions.

LMAO

If Barr Were Only A Libertarian, Or A Genuine Constitutionalist

he might have gotten support.

You cultists are such

You cultists are such hypocrites. You would have turned on a dime if Dr. Paul had backed Bob Barr. You're not political activists, you're self-righteous snobs.

Way to win friends and influence people there

and way to use Bob Kraus and Adnrew Davis's talking points, too!

No, Just Principled

The reason Paul is respected is because he's also principled. If he weren't, his supporters would leave him in a second. Self-righteous? What, we're supposed to sell out? Meaningless name-calling. You're really helping your boy out.

What makes you say Barr

isn't principled?

Does one have to never change his positions in order to be principled, even if his positions were wrong? Is that your definition of principled? Please explain.

Well...

...supporting opponents to LP candidates in races while being on the LNC for starters...

...not knowing what "I'm sorry" and "I screwed up" and "I was wrong" mean...

...ignoring the LP at every turn possible...

...not appealing the TX ballot ruling...

Need I go on, Ronbarr?

His Flip-Flopping

His support of interventionism (just not Iraq) up until a couple of weeks before his LP candidacy; his support of the Patriot Act; let's see, wasting millions of dollars pushing the Clinton impeachment, not for Bill's illegal activities, but because he lied about a blowjob. Let's see -- supporting the National Sales Tax.

I disagree

that switching from one position to another no matter how recently is indicative of lack of principle. It's simply changing principles.

Dr. Paul also said he would vote for the Fair Tax. Does that mean Dr. Paul is unprincipled?

Clinton was impeached for lying under oath. That's serious, regardless of what the president is lying about. If you don't think he should have been impeached, I would argue that you're unprincipled.

No

You're statement about Ron Paul is misleading, as you well know. He simply has said in an offhand remark that the national sales tax would be better than what we have now. But he's made it quite clear for, oh, the last two decades or more, that what's necessary is the abolition of the income tax and replacing it with nothing. Barr also likes a "flat tax."

And the point is not that someone can't change positions; it's that Barr was still advocating foreign intervention, to take just one example, while the rumors of his LP candidacy were already stirring. How can we take him seriously? Is he principled if tomorrow he says something different? There's a reason his candidacy doesn't resonate, and it's not the fault of the voters -- it's Barr's history that's the problem. And this guy was defending the Patriot Act just a couple of years ago -- are you seriously surprised he has a credibility issue?

I have no problem with Clinton being impeached; but Barr's whining about it for trivial reasons debased, not enhanced, the political dialog. Clinton should have been impeached for Whitewater, and a number of other Constitutional violations instead. Barr helped effectively kill that.

Picking Root, who doesn't even hide his neocon leanings, for VP didn't help. When Barr whines about his lack of respect, he needs to only look in the mirror. His candidacy was doomed from the start, as most knew it would be.

I Don't Trust Barr

...and why would anyone trust this guy?

What does trust have to do

What does trust have to do with anything? The fact is, neither Baldwin not Barr has a snow ball's chance in hell of being elected.

The choice of either of these two candidates is de facto a show of support for the party and the party's platform.

If you are pro-freedom you vote Libertarian. If you limit your support of freedom to the federal level while supporting an ant--freedom position at the state level, you support the Constitution Party.

hmmmmmm

The choice of either of these two candidates is de facto a show of support for the party and the party's platform.

If you wanted a show of support for the LP platform I think it would have been a good idea to nominate a libertarian. Don't you think that would have been the right thing to do?

I've kept my membership with

I've kept my membership with the LP, but this year I voted in the Republican primary to support Dr Paul and became a delegate to Texas' GOP Convention. So I could not participate, this year, in the LP convention.

Trust? Everything!

If you can't trust your representative, then there is no point in voting for them.

Barr is for sale by the GOP.

The only thing, Barr is not going to be elected. Baldwin is not going to be elected.

Trust has every thing to do with it.

What type of moronic hypocritical question is that. Would you trust a known child molester to take care of your children much less a now known Neo-Con with your vote???

You know, a charge of child

You know, a charge of child molestation can be charged against an 18 year old for having consensual sex with his 16 year old girl friend.

Yeah

Barr is about 2 years a claimed Libertarian.. So I guess he doesn't have enough under his belt to be taken seriously since he's been a Neo-Con who voted for the patriot act well before he became a carpetbagging libertarian looking for votes. Thanks for pointing that out.

It's hard to accurately

It's hard to accurately analyze this, but I suspect that too many hard core LP members supported RP this year instead of taking a hardline libertarian position and staying with the LP.

Not hard to analyze at all: it's bogus

Most state LP Bylaws allowed LP members who voted Paul in the primaries to rejoin and still go to conventions etc.

You may be correct, but I

You may be correct, but I assumed otherwise because I'm about 99.9% certain that doesn't hold true in Texas. I've been a County Chair in Texas since '88 and to advance in the convention process, you can only do so in the party you support in the primaries.

Yea, Right

Why is he wetting his panties?

Bar Barr...

Put Barr in the "Root" cellar where he belongs!
