The problem is that Ron Paul would never have won a single election if he ran with an (L) behind his name and he knew it when he switched. He is a nutjob and would give 0 bummer another term which America can not afford.
I don’t like the current primary system at all. By the time Texas gets to vote in a primary, the voters in states like Iowa and NE states have already chosen the candidate. If it is RP or mittens, I won’t even take the time to vote.

If Ron Paul comes in first or second in Iowa, IMO, they are no longer relevant and should lose their “first in the nation” status.
