- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -27/+651I hope he takes it away from McCain. That would be funny.
- blakmira, on 04/29/2008, -31/+397John Roberts at CNN is showing doctor / presidential candidate / author / military veteran / Congressman Ron Paul some much overdue respect in this interview. Excellent! He obviously is impressed with his views, opinions and solutions on the economy and foreign policy. Ron Paul is to be taken seriously, as are his supporters taking back the Republican party at the convention from the neo-con McCain war-mongering Bush clones! Ron Paul or Bust 2008
- conza88, on 04/29/2008, -26/+375Ron Paul Hits it out of the Park on CNN American Morning!
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -25/+343This comment has been buied by the Nevada State GOP
- muckemuck, on 04/29/2008, -20/+337I wonder when the Obama supporters will realize that by pointing out that McCain is failing to unite the Republicans they'll show his weakness? The Democrats are tearing each other apart and allowing McCain to slide past things like 210,000 Republican voters in PA voting against him in the primary.
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -64/+363I just unfriended Obama. If people really want change, they should write Ron paul in.
This coming election Mccain would probably win. Most likely because of Hillary's supporters getting pissed off that she didn't get the nomination. - digital0n3, on 04/29/2008, -17/+288We dont need a president to help our Morals.
We need a president that will leave us the ***** Alone. - kaelyiesta, on 04/29/2008, -20/+288The best point he makes is how trivial the differences are in policy between our remaining presidential candidates. Clinton and Obama are for an eventual withdrawal from iraq with caveats for prolonging the occupation. McCain is for a longer stay in iraq with a more indefinite timetable. Thats the only difference in foreign military imperialist policy. The rest of our military empire overseas isn't even mentioned by one of these politicians. The 40 or so countries we have military presence(and the many more we have proxy military presence via money incentives) in are completely ignored. What about our embargo on cuba? What about our willingness to subvert sovereign control and go to war on the say so of a foreign authority? Substance would be talking about serious details of these problems, and not just making broad general and vague statements about ones war stance. Its absurd. Its absurd that the politicians are trying to pull this ***** on us, and its absurd that the american people seem so taken in by it.
- Lordy1952, on 04/29/2008, -14/+256i want to see an obama paul debate
- Ephazi, on 04/29/2008, -18/+251I voted for Ron Paul...
- poppacherry, on 04/29/2008, -19/+221The other day a friend of mine asked me, "so who are you doing to vote for? Obama?" "No. Ron Paul. He's still in it!"
I know he doesn't have much of a chance at winning, but at least I can sleep knowing my vote went to someone who truly stood for change with consistency. Ron is a man of his word! - digital0n3, on 04/29/2008, -20/+200He CANNOT BY LAW use campaign money for anything other than the campaign.
Period.
Here is the lesson for today.
It is not Ron Paul excited about, it is Freedom, and he is the only one offering it.
FREEDOM or BUST 2008 - inactive, on 04/29/2008, -92/+272TO HELL WITH WHAT THE VOTERS THINK!!! NOW IS THE TIME TO MAKE RON PAUL THE NOMINEE!!!
- muckemuck, on 04/29/2008, -10/+187it would piss off a bunch of neo-conservatives.. that would be worth seeing.
- dooglio, on 04/29/2008, -12/+188Insane: this is not a democratic society. It's a republic, or at least it's supposed to be. That's why a president does not get elected by popular vote--the primaries in particular are just big straw polls. The conventions are where it counts. If more people knew this you'd have more people signing up as delegates.
- JJCDAD, on 04/29/2008, -19/+193McCain could die at any moment. ;)
- Rambus89, on 04/29/2008, -25/+185I wish this man became President
- AustinMandi, on 04/29/2008, -21/+179And it might keep America from spiraling into complete tyranny. But if funny works for you...
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -10/+166Serious as much as a good guy obama is he is not specific, he mentions what he wants to change but he never mentions how and thats my big beef with obama. Ron Paul has sound and solid plans how to deal with issues and i think thats why people should vote for him.
- ileftfark, on 04/29/2008, -14/+153Wow, never thought I'd see the day I welcomed a Ron Paul article on the frontpage. I was starting to forget there were other candidates.
- shadekeiko, on 04/29/2008, -9/+131I proudly voted for Ron Paul in PA. He is the only one in my mind who can fix this country. I don't care if McCain has already "clinched" the nomination.
- lazerus9, on 04/29/2008, -57/+174Quick! Another story focusing on Ron Paul! Call out the Zionist Digg brigade! Attack! Attack! Attack! Ron Paul would stop the foreign aid gravy train! And we can't have people figuring out our Federal Reserve scam!!
- UtubReptilian, on 04/29/2008, -7/+120Made popular 8 minutes ago!!! Digg brigade, You've Got Ron Pauled http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWLeGpvLpS8
- kemp34, on 04/29/2008, -15/+125Ron Paul is the leading voice of freedom in America. Please consider checking out his superb new book outlining a path towards freedom and limited Constitutional government in America - The Revolution: A Manifesto. Ron Paul has worked tirelessly to ensure that freedom is passed on to your kids and grandkids and I am thankful to him for such.
- georgemason01, on 04/29/2008, -6/+111More so than funny, it may very well be fair. If McCain's support is so huge, why aren't they showing up at the conventions in larger numbers? Why did Ron Paul sweep straw polls and then do much worse in the primaries? Why, on the day of the Texas primary and his re-election vote for Congress, did he get more votes in his district for Congress (69,824) than he did Presidential votes for the whole state (54,111)? I think this is what the whole convention process is for. The true support in numbers and energy can be accurately demonstrated, while an electronic straw poll (primaries) can be a complete fraud.
- sgiffy, on 04/29/2008, -26/+126"I just unfriended Obama."
Your level of commitment is staggering. - inactive, on 04/29/2008, -6/+103it would be more like a "lesson", and Ron would be teaching.
- londubh, on 04/29/2008, -15/+98Ron Paul needs your support. The Republicans deserve him more than ever.
- kemp34, on 04/29/2008, -3/+73How could any sane individual at this point trust the validity of machine votes? Who knows how much tinkering there was, if any, but the odds that there was some are very high.
- brad3378, on 04/29/2008, -5/+73To be fair, there's one main difference.
Obama & Hillary have platforms that look like a xerox copies of each other.
Paul & McCain are as different as day & night.
Frankly, I don't buy the argument that Obama supporters would never support Hillary and that Hillary supporters would never support Obama.
However, if I were John McCain, I wouldn't waste a single dime trying to earn the vote of a Ron Paul supporter. - littlepear, on 04/29/2008, -11/+75First they ignore you, then they laugh at you - funny ;) -, then they fight you, then you win.
- fromonesource, on 04/29/2008, -9/+72McCain is a puppet, he is guaranteed to lose the November election. Hillary is clearly the one that the upper management has decided to be president. She will go along with their every whim whether it be bombing Iran, invading Venezuela, increasing the reach of the federal reserve, furthering the disastrous North American Union or whatever else will increase profits and more importantly control for the international bankers. The president does not run the United States (and nor should they, the president works for the people) rather the Federal Reserve and the deep roots of the international bankers and corporate allies are in control. If anyone was afraid of McCain actually winning, he would be getting a lot more negative attention from the media.
"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men. -Woodrow Wilson" - jana67, on 04/29/2008, -11/+71This is great news to see this momentum building, voting for RP in the NC Primaries was exciting too....

- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -11/+62the bury brigade attacks good patriots and defends everything wrong with this country. How can anyone be so confused by accident?
- muckemuck, on 04/29/2008, -7/+54ahahhah! You McCain supporters trying to pretend to be Paul supporters crack me up. You can't even get the crazy talk right.
- xerigen, on 04/29/2008, -6/+50Everybody should read Ron Paul's book. He is more than just this "demon Republican" that everyone on Digg makes him out to be. He calls out Republicans and Democrats. You people who call yourself a "democrat" or a "republican" are the ones harming America. He has consistently voted on his principles and the Constitution, regardless of what his party expected of him.
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -10/+53The rigging of elections probably won't help. They're already rigging the votes inside their own party.
- inactive, on 04/29/2008, -3/+46Hell, I have a lot of respect for Ron Paul for not giving up.
- etx313, on 04/29/2008, -5/+48I don't care if the man drops dead before the election, His name will be on my ballot and it should be on yours too. He is the vessel, we're the fuel.
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -7/+48the bury brigade's laughter is confirmation of Ron Paul's integrity. I would worry if you idiots started supporting him.
- Sinnic, on 04/29/2008, -2/+43We're part of the same club.
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -12/+53Paper money has never worked for any form of government.
- Balath, on 04/29/2008, -3/+43I really admire you Paulites. You'd never give up, not even in the face of Armageddon. You're just as idealistic as he is, and, you know, you're right. He deserves to win more than any candidate I have ever seen.
I fear that he's the Cicero to Neo-conservatism - a last stand against the forces of corruption that are destroying his party and this nation. I fear he's the last beating heart of the GOP - without his sense of absolute honor and the completeness of his worldview, it doesn't deserve the name "Grand Old Party." - kemp34, on 04/29/2008, -4/+44Be careful, we can't wake up the people to such debates. We still need to maintain the illusion that the Republic still exists. /s
- BuzzFriendly, on 04/29/2008, -4/+43Us RP crazies are still here and you can bet your ass we will be at the polls as well.
Ron Paul 2008 - zephc, on 04/29/2008, -4/+42I love how XXXXXXXXXXXXXX and onetimer ***** bricks any time Ron Paul's name is mentioned. It is full of lolling for me.
Which defense contractors do you guys work for? - Goodanswer, on 04/29/2008, -1/+39That is exactly how my neighbor's feel here in North Carolina! We are all voting for Ron Paul. That (incase the votes get stolen) makes 3500 in my Camp Lejeune neighborhood alone. Those are the votes that I can count on, but there are MANY more MARINES and their wives/husbands that will vote for him. Like at least 35,000 here from what I have heard and talked to. We are FED UP with the war and fighting for people who wont stand up for their own crap. F~ 'em.
- fromonesource, on 04/29/2008, -2/+38Except Ron Paul bikes frequently and isas fit as a man half his age. McCain's most strenuous exercise involves calling his wife a *****: http://rawstory.com/news/2008/McCain_temper_boiled ...
