(VIDEO AT LINK: "New song for the Ron Paul campaign by Jordan Page.")
Take it or leave it, Sarah Palin's got a following, platform and a voice in America and she chose to use it with positive comments about Rick Santorum's campaign for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination through Hannity--but will that slow down Ron Paul's momentum? Maybe she and some others don't realize that, take it or leave it, Ron Paul has an army of supporters who continue to rise up tweeting, YouTubing and shouting "Ron Paul 2012," at events and on street corners as they wave signs for the man who is ready to "Restore America."
I'd be willing to bet just like the media black-out caused Ron Paul's supporters to rise up and get louder and stronger--they will also step it up for this possible future endorsement as well and agree with her when she said, "My personal endorsement probably doesn't amount to a hill of beans at this point in the race," she said to Hannity.
Ms. Palin told Fox News' Sean Hannity, "If voters start kind of shifting gears and deciding they want ideological consistency, then they're going to start paying attention to say, Rick Santorum."
She commented that Santorum is a, "hardliner against Iran to help protect Israel."
Then on the other side, we have Texas Congressman Ron Paul who says, "Why don't we mind our own business," in reference to taking on other country's battles and therefore spending more money on endless, careless wars. Paul is all about war for sure but not military force when it's not necessary, he's into making sure the currency war calms down that he forewarned would come to fruition.
Palin also said about Santorum, "He's been consistent in wanting to protect the most vulnerable and the sanctity of life. He's been consistent in saying we need to slash the federal income tax."
Speaking of consistency, have you done your homework on Ron Paul, Sarah? As a 12 term congressman Ron Paul has consistently voted to lower congressional pay, allow gun ownership, lower taxes, keep a free internet, limit the power of the executive branch. He's been against the bailouts and against the cost of, and loss of life of the Iraq war.
As president, Ron Paul plans to secure OUR borders, end foreign wars, bring the troops home, end the Fed, stop foreign aid, phase out the IRS, END the income tax which is against our Constitutional rights.
Dr. Paul plans to fix health care, take a yearly salary of $39,336.00--equal to the average U.S. workers salary--instead of the $400,000 a year being pulled out of the budget now. Paul plans to abolish corporate subsidies, return spending to 2006 levels and return the power to the States as in the 9th and 10th Amendments.
Santorium said he is grateful for her remarks, adding it is clear, "other conservatives are starting to rally around our message of passionate conservatism."
Well, I guess Santorium hasn't heard of the Ron Paul r3VOLution, also! Although, Palin did stand up for Ron Paul on Greta Van Susteren about the media black-out.
Hey, one more thing, I wonder what they're going to say when Ron Paul wins Iowa and New Hampshire?
This is how seriously I take Wrong Paul.
What momentum?
On another note, it's nice to see Palin saying good things about Santorum.
Wrong Paul has an army?
1st Nutball Brigade?
Ron Paul has ZERO momentum and has YET to hit his 2008 high mark with many of his former supporters taking a pass this go around.
I wouldn’t pee on him if he was on fire.
Libertarianism only works if there is a big brother out there that has your back. Switzerland, etc., otherwise it’s a non-starter.
Palin is trying real hard not to run.
She’s running out of options.
Other than Paul. And bachmann the rest are a joke.
What a bizarre piece, typical of the paranoid style of Paul fans. He attacks Palin for daring to say nice things about Santorum, then basically says, `I don`t want your stupid endorsement, anyway!`

Just looking at him, I think “what a flaky old coot”, then he comments on the economy and I think “well, that makes sense”, then he comments on just about anything else, and I think “what a flaky old coot”. Of course I would vote for him if it somehow came down to him or Zero, but I’d feel a bit queasy about it.
Would Palin accept another VP nomination?
I haven’t a clue.
You’ve known me for a while, going back to the Fred days. You know I’m a conservative and I’m committed to the fight for conservatism in this country. As of today, I’m on the record as supporting Ron Paul 2012. I do VERY MUCH disagree with much of Paul’s foreign policy platform. However, I agree with most of the rest of what Ron Paul has to say.
Sarah Palin was who I wanted. She had everything that was required to make the major changes necessary to fix our problems. Cain was a substitute. A poor substitute, but a substitute nonetheless. Now that he’s gone, I’m forced to throw aside what happens in foreign countries to hopefully fix what is destroying my own country before my very eyes.
Frankly, there is nobody left in this race worth supporting but Paul. And that comes from someone with vehement disagreement with him on foreign policy issues, particularly Israel.
But there’s only one candidate left in this race who has the record and platform to repair this country. And it ain’t Newt, Mitt, Bachmann, or Santorum.
Of course not.
Probably not. And I don’t know about you, but it wouldn’t move me a touch. I don’t care if Willard chose Jesus Christ as a VP, it wouldn’t sway my vote.
I’ll vote for Newt in the general, but I won’t vote for him in the primary.
I will NEVER so much as entertain the thought of voting for Ron Paul.
He was great in ‘Night Patrol’.
Bingo. Paul and bachmann are the only two left for me.
Me either. I would NEVER vote for Ron Paul, he is a whack job, and I could never support someone who is as anti israel as he is
