Thread: You'd Be Surprised Who Endorses Ron Paul

Lou Dobbs has also said complimentary things about John Edwards.

Does that mean he's endorsed his campaign?

C'mon, people, let's be realistic here.

Pat Buchanan?

Exactly what I was thinking. Buchanan's name is really what jumped off the page for me. There is no way in hell Pat endorses Ron Paul. Pat's views on trade (I read about them in his latest book) are diametrically opposed to Ron Paul's. Pat is a huge supporter of building the fence, and has been since 1992. Pat is also in favor of putting military on the border, and of punishing employers of illegals. I've heard Pat say positive things about Paul, but only concerning the Iraq War.

No one is diputing that the people listed uttered those words.

The point is that they do not constitute "endorsements" of anything other than the policy delineated in the quotes themselves. They are not endorsements of the candidate who espouses those positions, in this case, Ron Paul

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are comedians-and rather inept, scripted ones at that. Even if they did decide to endorse Ron Paul-in reality-what difference would it make?

Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary:

Acclamation
"A loud, eader expression of approval, praise, or assent."
"An overwhelming affirmative vote by cheers, shouts, or applause rather than by ballot."

The same holds true for Joy Behar.

I mean, give us a break already.

At the youtube Ron Paul 2008 website they have footage of Barry Goldwater Jr. and Pastor Chuck Baldwin endorsing Ron Paul for President!
