What happens if Ron Paul wins Iowa? ... Paul seems to have a natural ceiling among GOP voters: A recent Washington Post/ABC News poll found that nearly half of Republican voters feel Paul's foreign policy views are a major reason not to vote for him. Indeed, the primary reason Paul has an opening to win in Iowa is that no consensus candidate has emerged among social conservatives, which dominate the GOP electorate here – a situation that allows Paul to potentially win with less than 30 percent of the vote. Still, a Paul win in Iowa would have significant ramifications. It would go a long way toward pushing his Libertarian views, long dismissed as outside of Republican mainstream, to the center of the conversation. The resultant media coverage would allow Paul to further spread his message – and potentially win a host of new supporters. And if Paul can do well in New Hampshire on January 10, where he is currently tied for second place with Gingrich, Paul could even move to shared front-runner status with Romney, who is now ahead by more than 20 points in New Hampshire. – CBSNews

Free-Market Analysis: The Internet Reformation is a process not an episode. US GOP Presidential candidate Ron Paul shows us the accuracy of this statement. Ron Paul and his libertarian allies are winning the battle for the hearts and minds of Americans by the millions. In fact, they have already won. More on this below.
Ron Paul has been SUCCESSFULLY moving the conversation lately. And it will be written in the history books that he was the catalyst for major change in our nation regarding DOMESTIC policy. I've said it many times over the years that Paul maybe the only one in power who understands the problems we face at home so well, but loses so many with his lack of understanding issues abroad. (I know it's debatable and all but that's the rub)
ReplyDeletePaul will die before he becomes POTUS. His son Rand carrying on that mantle and learning a few lessons may put a PAUL in the WH at some point.
I know you like Paul brother and that's cool but I think he's got too much baggage to overcome Obama's state run media... I'm for anyone opposing Obama for one reason SCOTUS. Don't care if it's Paul or Romney I'll vote for them. Obama can't be allowed another 4 or we will suffer for 20 in regards to our 2nd amendment rights.

ReplyDeleteIf he wins, I don't think he'll be able to do much "legally" BUT his appointments of judges would be a MAJOR problem.
