Yes, Chancellor. More than likely I am going to gamble.

Don't be too sure about that. Even if he did, that doesn't mean they're going to be judges that follow the Constitution. Ronald Reagan appointed Sandra Day O'Connor and she turned out to be one of the worst internationalists ever. She even went so far as to say the Court should look not only to the laws of other countries but even to world opinion in order to interpret our Constitution (even though there is nothing in Article III of the Constitution that even gives the Court the authority to interpret the Constitution).

Right now this is just a run for the candidacy. If he wins the republican candidacy then republicans will vote for republicans just like republicans have always voted for republicans.

As a matter of fact a lot of 3rd party people are switching their party affiliation to help get Ron Paul in.

When a good candidate ever gets in it will be over the dead bodies of all of the speculators and naysayers who constantly deluge us with their predictions of doom and gloom.

He is the most "republican" republican to run in a long time.

The quote keeps coming to mind...

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

The only thing that can beat us is our own feelings of self defeat

BTW, don't beat me - BUT - I don't think he can win. Nonetheless, I'm going to financially support him and when it gets down to the wire I'm not sure I will vote for him.

Should I leave now? lol!
No ma'am.... you shouldn't leave... but you should get over the defeatist position you hold.

This country is ready for a return to the Constitution.

If any of you think Ron Paul has a chance of getting anywhere in his Presidential bid you are smoking crack cocaine or incredibly naive when it comes to politics.

He not only cannot win he will not get but a percentage or two of the vote if he runs as a third party canidate. Probably just enough to insure the Republican loses to the Democrat as the crazy midget Ross Perot did in 1992.
