BREAKING: Ron Paul Sacrificing Congressional Seat, Tom Woods Responds

http://RTR.org | This just in, Ron Paul, the 14 term Texas Congressman, has just announced he will not be seeking re-election to his congressional seat. We'll get Tom woods reaction in just a minute, and share with you some insider info regarding the Congressman Paul's inquiry into ballot access law, and what that means for his 2012 presidential bid. In a post on his Facebook page the congressman stated, "...I have decided not to seek re-election for my House seat in 2012 and will focus all of my energy winning the Presidency." Paula's hometown paper "I felt it was better that I concentrate on one election," -the Facts Longtime friend and adviser to Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell provided more insight into the Congressman's decision by stating, "he has had it... with: twice weekly groping by the TSA (since he has metal knees and is selected for the full feel-up every time); dealing with the crooks and creeps in Congress, especially in the rotten Texas delegation; and the deadly new district the Republicans have placed him in" What does this mean for the 2012 Presidential election? Well for starters if he doesn't receive the the Republican presidential nomination he will be free to seek the Libertarian nomination or even run as an independent and take the race all the way to the end. Unlike in 2008 when he simply closed his campaign. Joining us now to share his thoughts on the announcement is New York times best selling author of "Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century" Tom woods. Does this announcement mean Congressman Paul could seek the libertarian nomination or even run as an independent if he doesn't get the Republican nod? Let';s go now to the archive footage where we spoke to Free And Equal's Christina Tobin in 2009 about Ron Paul's staffer's inquires into ballot access law and the possibility of him getting on the ballot in all 50 states if not selected as the nomination.

Ron Paul knows he doesn't stand a chance of winning the nomination so why does he do it? It's almost as if he is trying to split the conservative vote. It conjures up memories of Ralph Nader.

Well if you look at the line up he is still better than the majority...

Amen! And if he runs as a third party candidate, I for one will vote for him. He is what this country needs or we are goners. GOP and Dems are almost all the same--they'll go along with the NWO when they get in office no matter what they say now. Ron Paul won't do that. Not gonna argue with anyone--I know some here disagree with me vehemently and that is their right. I'm just exercising my 1st amendment right while I still have it!

Ron Paul endorsed Adam Kokesh for congress, even though Kokesh stands with Code Pink. Adam Kokesh is as anti-American as they come. Code Pink is in with Hugo Chavez and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Tom Tancredo talks about Ron Paul and how he is basically for amnesty.

Ron Paul talks about the American workers like they are nothing but dirt, and he does not want to allow employees to check to see if the people they are hiring are legal because it would not be right ethically. What!

I wonder if Paul is nuts, or is he just against America.

I would rather vote for anyone than Ron Paul.

Kathyet, it remains to be seen who is better for the country. Of course, that's why we have elections, everyone votes for their favorite candidate, assuming one votes in the primaries and he/she wins the party nomination
