>> He should be given a slot at the convention, and he should endorse someone like Fred Thompson so that his supporters will stay in the GOP and help defeat Hillary. <<

Your hero Ron Paul has already stated quite clearly that he won't endorse Fred Thompson or anyone else in the race unless they join him on the sinking "Out of Iraq Now!" bus. Ron Paul won't be on stage with Fred unless Fred loses his mind and begins yapping about "neocon quadmires" or hell freezes over and Ron abandons his isolationist views.

And the funny thing is he has never "pledged" not to run as a third party candidate, your claims notwithstadnding. The exactly quote is he doesn't "plan to run in a third party". Obviously, a third party will only be "neccessary" if he fails in his current bid in win a major party nomination.

Fair warning 6 months in advance (as if anybody cares)

IF...baby killer Rudy Giuliani wins the GOP nomination AND chooses the smoker banning nanny stater Mike Huckabee as his VP nominee hoping that a baptist minister like your candidate BB can take some of the stink off of him among socons

AND

IF...Karl Marx in a pantsuit Hillary gets the Dim nomination as expected

AND

IF...Ron Paul runs as a third party candidate as the only pro-life libertarian alternative

THAN

I will be a shameless shill, contributor and pimp for Ron Paul’s campaign.

Well, the GOP aren't going to invite him anyway, so why should he do them any favors? Talking to Paul and getting his endorsement is much better than seeing his pissed-off supporters writing his name in the general election and causing the GOP nominee to lose, ya think?

Paul has said dozens of times he won't run as a 3rd party candidate. Put down the crack pipe.
