Re: Ron Paul refuses to back McCain

I'm not a political expert,but I don't think a third-party will win.
I'm not agains't third parties,and I appreciate alot of what I have read from the constitutional party,but I don't think third-parties have that much pull.

The big deal is he is a republican that ran for pres.as a republican and lost to a fellow republican then refuses to back the republican that defeated him.

Re: Ron Paul refuses to back McCain

is it to late for them to throw their hat in the ring? if not i would not put it past Ron Paul running as an independent. he has quite a good size following. not enough to win i am sure but he certainly could put a dent in the other parties if he ran i would think

I saw a live interview with Ron Paul on Fox News the day before his supposed big announcement and he looked and acted even loonier than usual.

Before I always just looked at him as eccentric and someone I disagreed with. He was just creepy looking and sounding in that interview.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

It's not a requirement that you have to be crazy to run for president - it just looks that way!

And guess who's fault that is.......as soon as we get out of this 2 party dictatorship mentality of voting for the lesser of 2 evils(evil is still evil)and being afraid of wasting our vote(your vote doesn't count anyway), then maybe things will change but as long as we go at this like it's some kind of ball game, we all lose.

And by the way real constitutional voting consists of the following:
1. Paper ballots
2. Manual hand counting of all the votes under the supervision of selected members of the citizenry(not beaurocrats) in each precinct.

Anything else is not real voting!!!!

Ron Paul is correct for not backing NWO, CFR, Bildeberg Group, illegal immigration backing, warmongering JUAN McWar. McCain didn't win nothing....ever here of election fraud(in the beginning primaries). McCain was totally dead in the water as of november 2007 then all of the sudden like frankenstein he emerges as a frontrunner. Bottom line is McCain is an imperialist, tax and spend liberal thug in Republican clothes. He's the NWO choice for president!!!!


VOTE THIRD PARTY!!!
