Didn't realize you lived in the twilight zone.

You can enjoy living in your FR bubble where everyone supports the war and everyone is a religious conservative who'll magically vote for Fred! but it just ain't so.

I'm telling you that Paul is the ONLY Republican candidate who can unite all of the conservative factions together to defeat Hillary in the general. Not to say he'll get nominated and win, but someone like Fred! can at least accommodate Paul on some of his views to retain his supporters within the GOP. Let's face it, the GOP has completely ignored fiscal conservatism in favor of pushing socon socialism. If whoever's nominated don't start talking about limited government and at least winding down on the war, they're toast, I don't care if it's Fred! or not, the GOP does not have the votes to defeat Hillary in its present form.

Well, in a way he is rebuilding the party. After all, look at all the people who simply don’t bother to vote because the candidates are so similar. Look also at all the young people who, out of pure cynicism haven’t bothered to vote yet. Ron Paul is gathering up these “lost sheep” and making a new and perhaps powerful flock. If the mainstream GOP doesn’t find some way to keep them happy they’ll just whither away along with the future of both parties. We’ll be left on an increasingly steep and rapid slide toward Socialism.
I make no bones about it - I hope he is elected President but I don’t think that’ll happen. So I’m left with hoping the Republican Party will wake up and embrace its original ideals of small government, limited expenditures and keeping out of other people’s business - as Ron Paul would like us to.
Again though, I don’t think that’ll happen either.
