Key California Republican Group Endorses Ron Paul

Key California Republican Group Endorses Ron Paul

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

May 22, 2007

ARLINGTON, VA – The United Republicans of California (UROC) have unanimously endorsed Congressman Ron Paul for president of the United States. UROC, formed in 1963 to support Barry Goldwater, represents the traditional conservative wing of the California Republican Party.

“The unanimous endorsement from the United Republicans of California proves what the campaign has been saying all along,” said campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “Ron Paul is the only true conservative and real Republican in the race.”

In their official statement endorsing Dr. Paul, UROC called him “the leading advocate for freedom in our nation’s capital” and recognized that:

Ron Paul’s voting record demonstrates that he has voted against:

· raising taxes;
· unbalanced budgets;
· a federal restriction on gun ownership;
· raising congressional pay; or
· increasing the power of the executive branch.

His voting record demonstrates further that he voted against:

· the USA Patriot Act;
· regulating the Internet; and
· the war in Iraq.

Dr. Paul is the only candidate with a record that matches the UROC’s platform.

“Whether the issue is life, the Second Amendment, foreign policy, spending or taxes, Ron Paul is the only traditional conservative candidate,” continued Snyder. “Traditional conservatives across the country should support Ron Paul for president.”

Sadly, the Republicans running the Republican Party are not Goldwater Republicans.

444 days of hostages being held brought about by bad US Foreign Policy and it all ended in 30 minutes time after a President was elected who said he was going to make some changes.

Could you share why? What was it that he said that makes you feel this way?

I just have to say that the CNN polls don't agree with you.

Poll results so far. (Out of a field of 10 Candidates)

1. Who do you think won the debate? #1 Candidate - Ron Paul @ 54%
2. Who seemed to know most about the issues? #1 Candidate - Ron Paul @ 53%
3. Who had the best one-liner or comeback? #1 Candidate - Ron Paul @ 37%
4. Who had the most disappointing performance at the debate? #1 Candidate - Rudy Guliani @ 29%
5. Whose performance was most surprising? #1 Candidate - Ron Paul @ 34%
6. Whose campaign got the biggest boost from the debate? #1 Candidate - Ron Paul @ 49%
7. Who was the snappiest dresser? #1 Candidate - Mitt Romney @ 49%

Oh... and I already know...for those out there that sing the same song every time....

When the other guys beat Ron Paul out it is proof he doesn't have a chance.
When Ron Paul beats the other guys it is some sort of a fluke.

Go Ron Paul Go...

To see the results I show above you have to click here and vote on all 7 questions and then they will show the results

I saw most of the debate (I missed about the first half hour) and it didn't seem that Ron Paul was even asked very many questions. On what basis are you saying he "came in dead last"?

Which is what we figured that the strategy was going to be since he keeps gaining in popularity every time he answers a question.

First of all I don't trust very many online polls. You don't know who is voting and what their agenda is. This poll could be comprised of a bunch of liberals voting.

Secondly, when Ron Paul was asked about the war in Iraq he came across as pulling the Democratic line. He never came across as someone who was well informed on the issues.

Now I think the so called debate last night was a joke. I think Rudy, Romney, and McCain were allowed to take up to much of the time while others seemed to be ignored. Howerever if I had to pick a winner in my oppinion it would have to be Mike Huckabee.
