    Ron Paul has NOT Suspended His Campaign

    A voice of reason from Ron Paul Flix

    Ron Paul has NOT Suspended and has NOT Ended His Campaign



    There is a strategy shift: The campaign will not spend resources campaigning in primary states but WILL BE focusing on winning delegates in caucus states ... Rest assured, he is not dropping out ... We must now redouble our efforts. We are doing extremely well, and the chance of a brokered convention in Tampa is extremely good, and the delegates we have collected so far are many hundreds, unlike what the media is lying to us about.

    There is a moneybomb coming up on May 17th. Please, pour everything you've got into the moneybomb. It's absolutely so vital that we do that. We have to keep the campaign going.

    Read My Lips: It's called the Alaska Strategy, Stupid!

    Ron Paul 2012


    Shh...

    Alaskans know what's up:

    "Now, the Paul campaign will attempt to replicate its Alaska success elsewhere in the country."

    Don't say the Alaskan GOP didn't warn the rest of the Nation: we're coming for you!

    #WINNING

    Will Ron Paul's new campaign strategy work? Well, look to Alaska

    Ben Anderson | May 14, 2012
    2012 Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul ended active campaigning on Monday with his announcement that he would no longer spend money to win votes in states that have yet to hold primaries.
    The campaign will continue to lobby to win leadership positions at state conventions and gaining delegates to represent Paul in Florida at the Republican National Convention in August.

    Paul's announcement leaves the rest of the primary field wide open for frontrunner Mitt Romney, who already leads in overall votes and delegate counts. Paul's new strategy, though, has already played itself out in Alaska, in unexpected and occasionally controversial ways...

    Now, the Paul campaign will attempt to replicate its Alaska success elsewhere in the country.

    Dr. Paul Will Tell Us The Truth Folks - It's Up To Us To Read What He Said

    Submitted by fmharde on Tue, 05/15/2012 - 01:28
    Ron Paul 2012


    We are all being tested right now. Will we pass or fail? Will we win or lose? It's up to us to not worry about what the MSM spins on what he really said... The MSM will just have to correct themselves later when they are likely forced to admit that RP just won another or several other state caucuses worth of delegates going to Tampa, or not??? The more they delay telling the truth, the worse it will be for them in the end... Also those who keep bashing the campaign decision on this type of announcement, I just simply see those as possibly trolls... Dr. Paul is simply telling everyone it's time for us to work smarter, not harder by devoting funds where they are most needed - At the delegate conventions as it has become evident that the establishment is starting to use very dirty underhanded tricks to keep duly elected voting citizen delegates from rightfully participating in this elections process.

    The fact of the matter is that The media is somewhat powerless in influencing the outcome of these delegate conventions since the credentialed voting delegates are all grassroots as they are just your average voters who took the extra step to become delegates when the precinct voting took place. The only thing they can do is when the MSM makes announcements and allows the Romney folks to possibly get more guests in attendance which they've tried to use to covertly dilute the vote, similar to a strategy of stuffing the ballot box by filling the convention hall with guests who somehow get away with illegitimately participating in the voice or hand or stand up voting. I am a delegate who attended the Nevada Convention in Sparks and this was one of the first things we noticed as a potential trick by the establishment... This by the way happened after we noticed the fake Ron Paul slate... After that we just simply blocked any business until we were able to fully segregate the guests from the main credentialed voting delegation... It took us needing to break for lunch and clear the room. Upon re-entry each delegate was required to show their credentials plus ID to walk back in the doors. Those who had guest badges were escorted by our sergeants of arms to a roped off area on the side of the convention hall where they could be more closely monitored... After this was done, it was clear that RP supporters has approx. a 60% majority...

    I believe the RP camp has so far done a decent job of segregating and monitoring the guests in these conventions while double checking credentials to be sure they don't vote but this may still be a debatable point... It's almost like the RP camp must demand to compare a person's name on the credentials roster with their badge with their id on the spot at the convention door entrances in order to get into the convention hall, which is difficult but not impossible... We may need to start demanding separate rooms with video conferencing for the guests if the media attention gets to be broad enough and it causes enough people to become interested in attending as guests...

    Another strategy it seems the establishment intends upon using which we're hearing about in regards to Michigan is to discredit the already elected delegates from being able to participate in the state/county/district conventions by trying to bully or stop delegate voting citizens from registering at the delegate conventions, also refusing their admission into the caucus due to some made up ridiculous excuse, and then possibly replacing them with others who are impersonators or fakes??? So if you are a delegate that was officially elected or self-nominated as voting took place in your precinct, then attended or tried to attend the county/district conventions and you decided not to attend the state convention or you are disallowed entry in any of the delegate caucus conventions, please inform the RP campaign so they can help you possibly gain entrance and/or so the establishment doesn't try to impersonate you and give someone else your credentials as your name would still likely be on the register as a delegate... I'm sure the RP camp will have to deal with the legitimacy of the conventions if in fact the RNC actually follows through and tries these underhanded types of tactics since the RNC would essentially be conducting a fake caucus against the RNC rules and voting rights of our citizens if they in fact carried through and did these sorts of things...

    The delegates that have attended the county/state conventions are average voting members of our society that went through the necessary procedures to become delegates (got elected or self nominated/ paid the fee), attended their county and/or district conventions as credentialed members and may now be denied by the RNC simply because they are Ron Paul supporters even though they will be likely told it's for a different reason??? These are simply your next door neighbors folks, who are simply just trying to exercise their voting rights and who have just declared their chosen party as being republican... They shouldn't be denied to participate in the republican nomination process simply because they have chosen a candidate that some who happen to hold RNC gatekeeper positions don't support or are biased towards - Especially since RP has been officially recognized by the Republican Party... This type of tactic is first of all against the RNC rules, and secondly, these types of practices are causing to violate our voting rights since a case can be made that the RNC is a huge influential player in the elections process and largely has a hand in who ultimately ends up on the general elections ballot... We The People have the right to participate in the process or selecting the Republican nominee and decide who will be on our General Election ballot!!!

    I don't care that people say the RNC is a private organization and these sorts of arguments may not apply. The fact of the matter is that the RNC is still governed by our Constitution since they are operating within our United States which guarantees our citizens participation in the elections process and our voting rights!!! Is this truly a Republic governed by our voting citizens??? Or has the tyrannical mob criminals taken over this process completely already??? I guess we will see if they are able to cause to ban our rights as citizens from participating in this critical portion or the elections process being delegate selection.

    So will the MSM now be able to resort to their usual strategy on not reporting the results of Dr. Paul's success or how he's being cheated in the delegate process since after all they just announced he's out of the race hmmm??? Do I see them possibly looking like IDIOT's in the near future??? See what the RP camp is doing right now, WE ARE DRIVING THE RACE. Not reporting the caucus results would be their only familiar recourse when they realize that they can't possibly report any of Dr. Paul's success or how the establishment is cheating against Dr. Paul... If they can't report on Dr. Paul's success, it may make it easier for us to win at these caucuses without all of the MSM attention since we don't have to manage as many guests and we may not have to deal with as much cheating if they decided to not give Dr. Paul media attention... But then again I'm not sure if the media attention really makes a difference in how much the establishment attempts to cheat...

    Could we somehow force the media out of their box??? Will they break their code of silence and finally give Dr. Paul some play in the media realm after being forced to admit their misconceptions - a way to save face with the increasingly angry public for lack of factual reporting??? Either way the establishment is realizing that they could very well lose considering that delegates according to RNC rules may be in fact allowed to vote their conscience once they step into the Tampa convention.

    The ultimate test for us could be to distinguish credentials... Remember in OK they refused to finalize the credentials because they wanted to keep the guests covertly mixing into the crowd and voting. Could there have also been some with fake credentials??? These types of potential problems became evident as the voting results were coming up to be more votes than the initial credential reports and what was compared to the registers. So this is why I think the establishment fought to not allow a final official credentialing.

    Then they abruptly shut down the convention without a proper vote after they realized the RP camp stuffed part of their strategy by being successful in segregating enough of the guests away from being able to vote and was in fact in the majority while the chair continued to call the votes in favor of the Romney folks which were in fact in the minority - this is the fight that continued all day as the RP camp kept calling for division and points of order but being ignored which ultimately prevented the Romney folks from railroading their unpopular agenda through... So they decided to just shut the lights, improperly adjourn against RNC rules and walk out thinking that would work against the RP folks. But Then the real majority of RP delegates are confirmed after appearing in the parking lot after everyone else leaves...

    Is it evident that the RP campaign has discovered the opposition tactics and intends on fighting against these tactics by beefing up our support at the delegate conventions??? Here's a short list of what I've seen so far... media silence or incorrect reporting of facts not only in regards to the election but many other issues of importance to the people, fraudulent tallying of straw vote results, ballot box stuffing, fake slates, covert voting guests or possible faked credentials at the conventions, strong arm hired security tactics to cause RP supporters to leave the conventions without being able to participate in delegate elections... does anyone want to add to the list??? And we still call ourselves a Republic following the Constitution and the Rule of Law???

    One thing... It's become clear that Ron Paul has higher grassroots support numbers evident from his Rallies vs. Romney, so what if we were able to bring in the same thousands of previous rallygoers as guests at these delegate conventions ourselves??? The Romney camp seems to be doing it, why can't we?

    What if we just made it simple for everyone and just decided as voting citizens that if you care enough to attend these delegate conventions and are a voting member of your county for the county convention, or the district for your district convention, or the state for the state convention, or simply a US Citizen to attend as a guest for the National convention, then maybe you should be able to vote on the floor business anyway but then have it where elected delegates get to vote on which delegates move as ballot voting member delegates credentialed to the next level - county/district to state, then state to national...

    I know it may sound confusing to some but this process could work to elect not only our POTUS, but government officials at each level... For example, a city convention could also elect say the mayor and members of the city council by ballot votes cast by the elected delegates from the precinct levels whereas those who are voting citizens within the city are free to attend the city convention and participate in the floor business voting. Also, The credentialed delegates from the precinct level would elect by paper ballot the set of delegates to move as credentialed delegates to the county level... At the county conventions the elections for state legislature officials could be done by ballot from the credentialed delegates that were elected from the city conventions to move as credentialed delegates to the county convention whereas voting citizens who reside within that county are free to attend the county convention and participate in voting on the floor business... Then there would be a district convention where those such as our Congressional house of representatives candidates, and state legislature representatives for that district would be elected by ballot by the credentialed delegates that were elected to move to this next level from the county conventions whereas voting citizens of the county are free to attend the county convention and participate in the floor business voting... And at the state delegate conventions, the positions such as governor and congressional senators could be elected by ballot from the delegates who were elected as credentialed to move from the district convention and whereas any voting citizen of the state is free to attend the state convention and participate in the floor voting... Then we could have one national convention which would elect the POTUS by ballot by the credentialed delegates elected respectively from each state convention to move to the national level...

    These sets of conventions could be held each say over the course of two days, first day determines the party nominations for the candidates and second day determines the final candidates elected from the party nominations. This way we could have all of our elections take place in a matter of 5months for each election cycle and the only ballot counting would be by hand and at the conventions where things could be more closely monitored - first month could be cities, next month districts, next month states, next month National... Also the days leading up to the conventions, those who are running for government official office would have an opportunity to speak to those who care to attend and listen... Also the different POTUS campaigns could make endorsements or basically create their slates for candidate recommendations, not just delegate slates... We could still have conferences every couple of years for our state and house of representative government officials for example, and every four years for say our senators and POTUS??? To me this type of system seems to make more sense and would be more closely monitored whereas no shenanigans during ballot counting since anyone would be free to observe in the designated ballot counting rooms???

    Why do I say choose our President and other members of our government using strictly a paper ballot delegate conference type of process instead??? Well for one thing we have all lost faith in these ridiculous electronic voting machines that are evidently rigged... Aren't these the same voting machines we'll need to use during the general election??? Secondly, Isn't something similar to our delegate process how things used to be done when we started this country??? And also, doesn't just one set of conventions including all parties condense our elections process a bit so it doesn't have to drag on for months??? Our current elections process seems to be so exhausting and inefficient and open to so many different ways of cheating...

    The Romney folks I'm sure would most definitely be outnumbered at least on the floor voting business if this was the case... How about a friendly guest contest at these conventions with the media??? I say Let's see how many Romney people they can turn out vs. how many Ron Paul people we can get at these conventions... This might be more representative of the wishes of our citizens... Who knows, bringing more guests to these delegate conventions could help make our case as to how we should change the way we conduct elections...

    How could we implement this type of process??? Well we could start by having massive amounts of RP guests attend these conventions and ask for rules and platform changes to accommodate these types of ideas... Then we could eventually try to work something between the different parties to create coordinated conventions to replace general elections??? These are also conventions where masses of people could be prompted to sign petitions to change our laws and put things on the ballots working towards this type of elections process... Many of us can also become Precinct Committee persons in order to manage the caucuses to help insure a more fair type of ballot counting in the interim... It won't be perfect but it could help get our issues put through during the transitional phase...

    These convention gatherings could also be used as an opportunity to get signatures for other types of petitions for say congress or the state legislatures to consider issues that the people feel are important and need to be addressed... So having masses of guests attending these conventions doesn't have to disrupt the current process, but it could work towards evolving it into a more transparent type of elections process which I have described as we have noticed that it is very difficult for the establishment to cheat at these delegate conventions without being noticed...

    In the mean time I would suggest to Stay tuned & stay involved!!! Strategy folks... Pure Strategy...

    Are Neo-cons Finally Worried Enough That They Too Might Be Losing Their Civil Liberties?

    Submitted by MindUrBusiness on Tue, 05/15/2012 - 01:33

    I was so surprised to hear what Krauthammer had to say about drones in America. I think the movement is reaching critical mass. You know in the back of their mind these neo-cons (now suddenly worried about their civil liberties...)are thinking that Dr. Paul has been warning them about this for 30+ years. Are they going to start paying attention? Watch this segment on Fox News about drones in America.

    Some historical perspective for Ron Paul activists

    Posted by Ryan W. McMaken on May 15, 2012 12:47 AM

    I've been somewhat surprised by the absolutely hysterical reaction among some RP activists to Ron Paul's announcement that he's shifting resources toward winning more delegates instead of blowing it on straw polls in new primaries. In some of the forums, alleged "supporters" are hurling insults at both Ron and his staffers.

    I remember how after 2008, some people I talked to pledged to "never give money ever again" to Ron Paul because he "wasn't serious" about winning. These people think elections are all that matter, but that's not how political and intellectual movements work. The election of numerous libertarian candidates will be a lagging indicator, not a leading indicator, of the success of a libertarian movement. The population still isn't there. Although it will be.

    It's absolutely unbelievable that some people who claim to be champions of freedom are now viciously badmouthing a man who can claim much credit in making libertarianism a household word -as it now is- and has been instrumental in building the most important challenge to central banking and the warfare state in a century. All of this is in addition to taking control of the GOP machinery in numerous states and cong. districts.

    I might also note that I turned on the tele the other day and there was Ron Paul talking about central banking. Note to newcomer activists: I know it's hard to believe, but before RP's 2008 run, there was once a time when libertarians weren't on TV regularly talking about Austrian free-market economics and the evils of war. I swear it's true. Cross my heart and hope to die.


    Politically, Ron Paul is doing what the Religious Right successfully did 20 years ago when it became a major force in the party, and he's rebuilding the intellectual infrastructure of the American right wing in a way similar to what Buckley did in the 1950s. Except, where Buckley only pretended to be for the rule of law and limited government, Ron Paul is the real thing. And Paul's even doing it without CIA money, unlike Buckley. RP's the continuation of the old libertarian movement that existed in opposition to war and the New Deal before it was hijacked by the conservative apologists for the state.
    Except now, instead of being composed of a few dozen guys who could all have met in a small hotel ballroom, the movement for peace and freedom is a huge nationwide movement.

    Anyone who, like me, teaches people in their twenties can already see a huge change. The ideas of libertarianism have a credibility they have not had in decades, if not not since the late 19th century when Herbert Spencer was a best-selling author in America.

    Those of us who have been involved in the libertarian movement for more than ten years can see a huge difference, and those who have been around for decades undoubtedly see even more. Nevertheless, I can understand that a younger person, or a person who has never been politically active before might view one presidential election as some kind of end-all-be-all of the freedom movement, but its not.

    The Ron Paul phenomenon isn't even close to being done re-shaping the American political landscape, yet amazingly, some people seem to think that not running TV ads in California somehow signifies a lack of seriousness on the part of the Paul campaign. Only a complete lack of experience and historical perspective could lead one to such conclusions.

    Fraud and Harassment - Kitsap County, WA

    Submitted by staobrof on Tue, 05/15/2012 - 03:28
    Ron Paul 2012

    Washington



    This video needs to be seen. The Kitsap County Chairman/Convention Chair and the Washington State Chairman both verbally attack delegates for trying to make motions and calling Point of Order.

    Unfortunately, the cameraman had to hold his camera up to keep it out of the reach of staffers harassing him.

    Fraud and Harassment - Kitsap County, WA | Peace . Gold . Liberty | Ron Paul 2012

    May 12, 2012 by smittyshmo

    Ron Paul delegate calls for Point of Order and is told 'Sit down and shut up!' by State Chairman Kirby Wilbur.

    Chairman refuses to address delegate's Point of Order

    Ron Paul supporters are accosted at Kitsap County Re-convention May 12, 2012

    There is no rule adopted by the body that prohibits video recording, it was made up by the County Chair to protect from credentials violations.

    This is the 2nd Kitsap County convention being held as a CYA. The first convention was a sham purposefully started late at 12:30pm and ended promply at 4pm, only 3.5hrs when 5 to 7 rounds of voting would be needed.
    No electronic ballot counters were used and each count between votes took at least 45min
    It was an orchestrated effort to prevent Ron Paul from sweeping the convention. We had the numbers in our favor at the first convention. Over 800 delegates, 3 commisioner districts, 2 of which only finished 2 rounds of voting at the first convention. One district finished a third round and the Chair tried to have it thrown out by the credentials committee. No such luck.
    The chair Jack Hamilton told the body when we didn't finish voting his committee would seat the remaining delegates to the state convention. Thanks Jack

    And this was good behavior this time! The first convention was rediculous with the County Chair bullying everyone, yelling at delegates in their face, wide spread cheating, breaking all the rules... hence the reason we were not budging on the recording issue.

    Ron Paul's Long View by cicobiologist

    Submitted by dfwrider on Tue, 05/15/2012 - 03:23
    Daily Paul Liberty Forum


    - He bough gold at $35/oz and didn't tell people they were idiots when they didn't buy.

    - He humbly told the same message over and over again without offending anyone for 40 years. He would not force his ideas least he be like his opponents.

    - He exercised and eat well daily because he wasn't focused on his daily health but his health for a time when he would need all of his strength.

    - His passion never openly turned to wrath because he knew he would need to have others follow his lead. A hateful, angry leader cannot expect to lead.

    - He has been marginlized for years and his ideas have been scoffed at, but he kept his cool and realized he was not ready.

    - He never booed his opponents to their faces.

    - He is unselfish and wasn't fighting for his own freedom but for the freedom of others.

    My questions to us:

    - They hate us, but will we be hateful?

    - They boo him, but should we boo them?

    - Are we fighting for our own freedom or for those who have not yet understood they have none? Hostile takeovers never are long-term, but only infuriate the opposition.

    - Will we act or will we consistently react?

    - Will we run for office at all levels of government just as Ron Paul did for the highest office in the land? Are you serious enough to make a real effort? I did in 2010 and, with Alex Snitker, started www.libertytakover2012.com

    - Will you participate in your power centers (see www.freedomforceinternational.com about "An Idea Whose Time has Come") to lead and influence or are you to impatient and constantly offend them so you have no leadership or influence?

    - Are you willing to ruin a legacy for a moment of vengence or anger or words that are hateful? To be honest, sometime I have been and that is a tragic reality; but I hope together we can move to a less hostile place to win the hearts of people.

    This is Ron Paul's revolution and the steps he has taken in the last 5 years (starting in 2007) are nothing compared to the endurance he has needing during the previous 35 years. He never was running a sprint and the marathon isn't nearly over, perhaps it will never be as life is about transitions.

    Liberty is not passed on through the genetic code nor through blood streams. It is the amazing elixer that captures the heart first and then moves to the mind with a hope to be propogated flourished in the body and world around us. Let us live as if we are free so that those who we would lead and influence will be ready to follow. Collectivists will rule the day if we offend for they will convince the masses of our hatred or they will encourage the frustration of those who lost positions of power, but individuals will stand if we respond with patience and consistency.

    We can choose to follow the lead of a man who lead by example or the heart of those who haven't had the opportunity to lead in such a significant way, yet. I count myself amonng the latter and hope you will join me as we prepare to be leaders and influencers while watching our mentor do things with excellence as he always has.

    In Liberty,

    Francisco "Cico" Rodriguez

    SPECIAL REPORT: The "Good Guys" Election Strategy

    Bix Weir



    Let's face it...Ron Paul has gotten farther than anyone thought. A lot farther. He continues to gain against the other candidates and continues to spread the message of liberty. Ron is the man!

    But this process has just begun and according to the Road to Roota Theory he will ultimately take his place as President of the United States. It has been carefully crafted and orchestrated by the Good Guys and they are on track. If you think it is still a long, long shot think again. The GOP Primary process is NOT a popularity contest but rather a contest to see who can secure the most delegates at the Republican Convention. Here's a great explanation of the process:

    For Ron Paul and Rick Santorum, It's All About Collecting Delegates

    For Ron Paul and Rick Santorum, It

    Yes, in these early days of the process it looks like the candidate will be Romney...but it is REALLY early and EVERYTHING can change in an instant. Remember the "Good Guys" now control the markets via computer trading programs. At any moment in time they can crash the system and Ron Paul will be the ONLY candidate to both predict it as well as have a plan to fix it.

    For now let's talk strategy. If you were the Good Guys and you pulled the strings of how this election process takes place what would you do? Well how about this...

    BACKGROUND: We all know the people of America have been asleep for decades. They have been brain washed and dumbed down such that most people willingly follow the majority consensus without thinking for themselves. By controlling the mass media the Bad Guys have easily controlled the individual. So the Good Guys had to devise a strategy that both breaks your average person OUT of the media's control and at the same time teaches the average person about Ron Paul's message. The message of personal liberty.

    Round One: So the plan is to spread the vote in the early stages of the election process while continually teaching the people about Ron's philosophy. The rise and fall and then rise again of various candidates is all planned and orchestrated while Ron Paul's message is spread. His power and influence grows and his message is solidified. At the same time not one candidate runs away with the votes but rather they are spread widely amongst the many. Santorum's Iowa rise then fall. Huntsman's New Hampshire rise then fall. Santorum, Gingrich and even Perry should fair much better in South Carolina. All these rises and falls are spreading out the vote widely allowing Ron Paul to stay in the game as his message is spread. Romney is being placed at the number one spot for now but that plays into the Good Guys plan for "Round Two". (update: Gingrich just won South Carolina and Santorum has now won Iowa...spreading the vote.)

    Round Two: Some time in the very near future (Late Spring/Early Summer?) we will have the long predicted mother of all banking crashes. It will be like nothing seen before in the history of mankind. A true "Creative Destruction" event and the blame will be placed squarely on the banking cabal and the fiat monetary system. This event will have ramifications on the election process like no event has in our past. Ron Paul predicted it! Ron Paul has told you why! And Ron Paul has your solution America! Overnight Ron Paul will become the most important person in the world and a "Shoe In" for President.

    Can you now see how it is written in stone?

    Can you see why it is the ONLY solution?

    Taking Down Romney

    So is Romney indestructible? Hardly! I've outlined his connections with the Bad Guys and his involvement with the Alan Stanford Ponzi Scheme. For the moment it is lurking in the shadows.

    Alan Stanford Can't Remember if Mitt Romney Was A Part of His Ponzi Scheme!

    The take down of Bernie Madoff and Alan Stanford were MAJOR victories against the Bad Guys and go so much deeper than anyone knows. IF a smack down of Romney is needed to unseat him look no further than revelations of his involvement in a Ponzi Scheme to come out. As a matter of fact, the Stanford Case is still headline news and still being conducted behind closed doors.

    Romney is part of the Bad Guys and the Banking Cabal and they are GOING DOWN.

    He won't win. WE WON'T LET HIM!

    The Palin Issue

    I have gotten emails from subscribers claiming that my "way off" Sarah Palin endorsement prediction can't happen now that Todd Palin has endorsed Newt Gingrich...

    Todd Palin Endorses Newt Gingrich - Is Sarah Next?

    Todd Palin endorses Newt Gingrich. Is Sarah next? - CSMonitor.com

    "The point to be made here is in fact relatively obvious: Gingrich hopes to equate Todd's nod with Sarah. A Palin endorsement would be a big help for someone whose campaign could be ended by a poor showing in South Carolina. It would give Gingrich more tea party bona fides in his competition with Rick Santorum for the non-Mitt Romney primary slot."

    "Sarah Palin herself has been coy about an endorsement. Recently she even warned the GOP against alienating Ron Paul's voters, lest the Texas libertarian bolt and mount a third-party bid. It's possible she won't endorse anyone, or is holding off until she sees whether social conservatives rally around a single candidate in their effort to deny Mr. Romney the nomination."


    I have to laugh at this one. First, why does Todd Palin's endorsement mean anything? I'm sure he's a nice guy but don't you think this is the strangest "political news event" in the last six months? But wait! I always have to apply the Road to Roota Theory to strange occurrences and VOILA...what if it was done on purpose?!

    First listen to his radio interview:

    Video at the page link: SPECIAL REPORT: The Good Guys Election Strategy

    Let's face it...this was the weakest endorsement justification in the history of elections! I've gotten emails saying that "Todd is just as dense at Sarah"... I don't think so. I just think he's a very bad LIAR! The REASON that Todd was TOLD to endorse Newt the day before the New Hampshire vote was that Newt was falling too far behind and needed a boost! The Good Guys knew that any endorsement with the Palin name behind it would sway some voters so Sarah and the Good Guys stuck Todd out there as a sacrificial lamb. Todd took one for the team this time. I know this election game is not his thing but at least he showed up and did his part. So thanks Todd...now you can get back to your Snow Mobiles and hunting wolves!

    As for Sarah's endorsement...it will be a game changer for any candidate and it is OBVIOUS to me that Ron Paul is her guy. She will add what Ron lacks as far as popularity and energy. She will fully adopt his message and be a PERFECT spokesman for him. She and her followers will be relentless advocates for Ron and his message.

    When? I don't know. But I guarantee you the timing will be PERFECT!

    May the Road you choose be the Right Road.
