RP is pro-drug, anti-war, and anti-tax, the "no consequences" candidate.
What's not to like for a young person?

I’m not entirely unsympathetic. Four years of Barack Obama might make me want to hide behind some bong smoke too.
Ron Paul is appealing to green (in the sense of immature) idealists who don’t appreciate that a politician with a huge hole in his policies is just not the person to put in the Oval Office even if he made it to Congress.

They like his hippie live and let live anti-war message.
I know of many younger folks who are drawn to him for that reason.
Personally, I think he’s a kook.

Very , very simple. Legalization of drugs. That puts him in their peer group.

What is so appealing about Ron Paul to young voters? Yep, weed.
Of course, his foreign policy lunacy will have the bad guys killing us all and taking the weed.
But logic and forethought are not traits of Paultards.

Come on, it’s because he’s anti-establishment. Young people tend to be more rebellious by nature.

What is so appealing about Ron Paul to young voters?The same things that make them participate in the OWS camp outs. Anything weird or "edgy" is great by them.

Paul will still be in the race the day after Gingrich drops out and endorses Romney.

He is the anti-candidate. He is this generation’s version of the anti-establishment.
It could be worse...in my day the anti-establishment consisted of the dems inside the beltway. Outside the beltway: Bill Ayers, Jane Fonda, Tom Hayden, and all of their cohorts.
