THANK GOD FOR RON PAUL!

It's obvious that Mike Huckabee is pandering. Ron Paul is the ONLY REPUBLICAN THAT MAKES ANY SENSE! The war is over. Bring our troops home. We don't need our men and women dieing for honor any more. This is a war we've won and it's time to stop nation building.

Congrats to Ron Paul, from the responce on CNN, he's already won!

And I'm sure Ron Paul is a good guy, but what kind of person really cares about the soldiers then debates with the line "We are losing elections, and we are going down next year if we don't change it" ? He sound more like a politician than John Kerry.

Less than 300 allowed into the U.S.

Where is the honor in that Huckabee?

(yes, but they will delete your comment if you criticize CNN's biaised coverage)

Ron Paul won that exchange hands down. (No matter how much the writer for this story wanted to have it seem otherwise.)

congratulation to Ron Paul for squishing the opposition

(oh, and no, i'm not part of his campaing, nobody told me to write this, I didn't participate in polls, I'm just another adult person able to think by myself, and I'm sick and disgusted at what this country is becoming)

I find it interesting that Fox News briefly flashed the results on the TV screen, but I don't see any mention of this on their website. I don't think the people at Fox are happy about the poll results, especially Sean Hannity.

Congratulations Ron Paul on another great performance! Those other 7 (now Republican candidates can't match Ron Paul's wisdom and honesty.

Found it on Fox News:

Yes. You are correct. Ron Paul with 33%.

Look at the the Hannity/Colmes exchange. Here is a snapshot:

SEAN HANNITY, CO-HOST: All right, it is time now for the final results from our text messaging poll.

And in first tonight, Ron Paul. He is having all those 3 percent of people call in, I'm sure. (That's right, Dr. Paul got all those folks to text in...Don't other candidates supporters know how to text in and text in often?) He got 33...

ALAN COLMES, CO-HOST: Maybe he just did very well. (Ya think?)

HANNITY: He got 33 percent. Well, it happens.

-

Wow. Bet you if it was Guliani, or even Thompson supporters, Hannity wouldn't make those comments.

Now as long as we can ensure that paper ballots are being used instead of election machines being rigged (this has happened and it is FACT), Ron Paul just might win.

Yep – shows you what 1,000 Ron Paul supporters could do by repeatedly texting in his name 20-30 times each.

Ron Paul has as much chance of winning the Republican nomination as does Bill Clinton.

Hmmm.

Are you saying that there aren't other candidates supporters out there texting their candidates in 20-30 times each?

Or are you saying Ron Paul supporters are the only ones who know how to use texting?

Or are you saying Ron Paul's supporters are the only one fanatical enough to text in his name over and over? If that IS the case, why do you think that is? Maybe other candidates aren't worthy of that type of support? Maybe what the other candidate's messages don't galvanize and electrify their following like Ron Paul?

Your observation is invalid. Next!

Go Ron Paul!

The division is rich chickenhawks vs. tax-paying americans! There's no "we" between you and me Huckabee! I'll put it in writing the day I get my ballot!

There's no honor in sending other people's children to die for your screw ups!

You want honor? Go throw yourself before the mercy of the Iraqi people.
^Fall on your sword on the retreat in apology for failing your country.

There's no greater dishonor than sending other's to pay for your mistakes.

I DEMAND that you, – CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney, print Ron Paul's reply. "You don't continue making the same mistake just to save face."

You call yourself a CNN Producer. Did you go to journalism school? Crackerjack box? This is the type of reporting that gives journalism a black eye. Be a professional and do it right. Attach a correction.

I can understand disagreeing with Paul's arguments, but why are people so afraid to admit that he actually has a lot of (grassroots) support? He also does not have much in the way of staff; when Paul supporters write on message boards or vote in online polls, you can be pretty confident that they are not associated with the campaign. Those signs you see on the freeway, for instance, were not placed there by the campaign, but by this guy named Bob working out of his garage who really believes in Paul.

Paul does not advocate passengers carrying guns on planes. He wants airlines to decide their own policies. So if an airline wants passengers to carry weapons, that's the airline's choice (and your choice to fly or not to fly with them). However, his point about preventing 9/11 is that, ideally, the airline staff would be armed to defend themselves, which would keep al Qaida from even thinking they could get away with taking over the planes.

Also, let's remember that our federal government has gathered intelligence and sent out spies long before the CIA was created. The State Department can continue intelligence investigations without the CIA. So don't think dismanteling the CIA means we'll suddenly be blind and dumb.

If you are going to write an article, please do not leave out the parts that don't fit your spin on the story. It shows a lack of integrity on the part of journalists that many people in our nation are starting to despise.

It seems that most of the issues for which Ron Paul gets mocked are ones in which he is misinterpreted. Once you know the facts – and it seems like Ron Paul ALWAYS knows the facts – most of what he says makes perfect sense.

As an example, he has never advocated having airplane passengers packing guns. What he suggests is letting the airlines make their own decisions about how they can best protect their passengers. That would almost certainly mean that pilots would have guns, but it's laughable to think that they would allow passengers on their planes with guns.

We don't have to look to far for supporting evidence. What was one of the very first things the government did after 9/11? They reinstituted the air marshall program, and it was almost unanimously approved by the public. I personally feel safer knowing that there might be an armed undercover law enforcement officer on my flight, and I'm quite sure the hijackers would have reconsidered if armed pilots and air marshalls were the norm.

I would encourage everyone who thinks this 20 year veteran of Congress is crazy to research his positions on the web, understand why he feels the way he does, and why his message resonates with the American public. Then make an informed decision, whether or not it is to support the Paul campaign.

I do appreciate his candor, but we must ask ourselves, if he were to be elected and won, would he maintain that truth and integrity, or would the trappings of power and the office swallow him whole?

It's easy when it it's hidden as national debt, which our most dangerous foe, China, purchases to gain a stronghold on our economy...
but if you had to make the effort to cut a check and pay for this war, would you?

Ron Paul is the only candidate that understands that the government needs to follow its own laws such as the Constitution before it goes looking for others' shortcomings.

If the prognosis is wrong, you change the treatment – you don't 'stay the course' out of stubbornnes at the expense of the patient.

Further, if you want one country, indivisible, and 70% of our country believes we should LEAVE Iraq why are you arguing against them?

There's a good reason campaign donations for Ron Paul from active military personnel total more than all other candidates combined – our own military agrees with his message.

Ron Paul won that exchange, and the text message after-debate poll proves it.

To me a better analogy would go like this:

I think you’re about to hurt me so I attack you and now in serious medical trouble.

I feel bad so I try to get you better. After years of trying to “fix” you, you’re not getting any better – actually it’s possible the treatment I’m giving you is making you worse.

You get tired of me trying to help while making things worse, and say: JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!

No, I won’t leave you alone, I’ll keep “fixing” you to save my “honor.” I’m so honorable that I’m going to ignore your pleas, ignore the fact that my “fixing” is making things worse, and continue dictating your life.

Some honor.

Ron Paul should be commended for his record, his honesty, and his bravery.
