Obama/Biden 08

You need to have a blog where people can comment on Palin and the mainstream political candidates that are being discussed at the moment. Please transfer this to Campbell Brown....Joe Johns supposedly just debunked the Palin claims by saying she actually did turn down funding for the bridge to nowhere once it became national news, but he failed to mention that she still took the money (from us, not from oil rich Alaska) and used it to fund other Alaska state expenditures. Couldn't it have been better used to rebuild infrastructure in the lower 48? What she did is like a student getting scholarship money to attend college and then using it to buy a car. If you publish the "no bias, no bull" headline, then tell the entire truth!

Ron Paul should have been the Libertarian candidate.

YOU NAIVE O.B. SUPPORTERS. OBAMA IS THE ONE TO PUT US IN WORLD WAR 111 YOU MORONS.HE IS A DIRTY CHICAGO POLITICIAN. ALL HE KNOWS IS TO DIRT SOMEONE AND DO WHAT HE CAN TO DISTROY SOMEONE.HE DID THE SAME THING WITH HELP OF DNC TO PUT HRC OUT,JUST LIKE HE CUT THROATED OTHERS IN CHICAGO. YOU MORONS BETTER GET YOUR FACTS ABOUT OBAMA. THE MEDIA IS SHOVING HIM SO FAR UP THEIR --S ,THAT THEY ARE KEEPING MANY THINGS FROM THE PUBLIC ABOUT O.B. THEY HAD THIS ALL PLANNED IN 2007 WHEN O.B. SAID HE WOULD RUN TO FIX HIS NOMINATION. YOU MORONS ARE SO BRAINWASHED FROM YOUR PUPPET MASTER. HRC HAD KNOW CHANCE WITH THE MEDIA AND DNC. THAT SHOWS YOU WHAT KIND OF ARROGANT S.O.B. HE IS. OBAMA IS FOR HIMSELF AND DIDN'T WANT HRC TO SHARE HIS HISTORY. HE IS A BIAS JERK TOO. MCCAIN DONT TRASH HIS OWN. REP'S ARE MORE UNITED AND THEIR NOT HATERS LIKE O.B.'S FOLLOWERS. WHAT WAS O.B'S EXCUSE FOR NOT PICKING HRC? ITS JUST WHAT I SAID.BIDEN ALSO VOTED FOR IRAQ. OBAMA SHOWS ME OLD DIRTY POLITICS STILL. MCCAIN AND PALIN IS FOR REAL CHANGE. COUNTRY FIRST THOUGH.

The press will eat her for lunch. Especially since she's playing with fire.

John should have know better than to pick a child woman. Sarah is charming, but she's not ready.

Obama/Biden 08

america vote for obama if you care health care if you care your education and if u care economic vote for obama real change will come, i am proud to vote obama and not the replican no more war no more disaster

Thanks John,

Now you have united the Democratic Party because people will come out of the woodwork to keep Sarah from reaching D.C. She is a phony and a fake and does not deserve to be considered for dogcatcher, let alone VP.

I hope the press wears her out with questions because she is not ready for PRIME TIME.

Along with the glamour of the national spotlight, comes the glare of a heated spotlight. I hope Sarah has sunscreen lotion.

Obama/Biden 08

This country is going down the drain because of libs

I liked what Ron Paul said last week in Minnesota at the convention in his honor, in effect, that the power of thought is greater than any military force. Over time, a consensus will be reached, and these politicians better listen to the people they represent. Let's keep up the debate!

how can he endorse all four candidates>

Somehow I doubt Ron Paul will give his "seal of approval" to any socialist... whether it's Obama, McCain, McKinney, or Nader. We'll see though.

Ron Paul with all due respect is having a meltdown. Stick to the facts Paul and not to your desires....how much better are you than McLame?I know "Old" sucks but this isn't about old and centurian idealism but about futuristic ideals. None of which you or ,"Old Man River McCain" have.

cynthia mckinney??? lol she plays the race card even more than nobama!

I really like her, it's just too bad she doesn't have a shot at winning.

I'd LOVE to see the media bring more attention to her though and have her apart of the debates with Obama and McCain.

this man is off he is wasting his boat

Is he still alive? Anyway, endorsing four unviable candidates is like endorsing nobody. Anyone who thinks this will have some kind of impact on the election is nuts.

i have followed this election interestingly. I am quite appalled at the low level of intelligence being exhibited by some in this election matters. Intelligence and ability to grasp issues are not gender or race related. its the sense of mind to stay focused on whats right for now and the future. All these cries about Obama, Palin, biden and cain should be analysed and pros and cons weighted, then the best possible choice should be made.

1. Is it not obvious the only reason Sarah Palin is on McCain's ticket is to attract disgruntled female voters?

2. For a woman who cannot remember and defend her positions on matters, i am surprised she gets any attention at all for being dumb.

3. were this some african politics, CNN would be screaming and saying despicable things about the electorate process

4. if i were to vote, wouldn't i look out for the candidate that offers better policies and not lies, talks about issues and not hiding under nuances, the one who is more forward facing not one dwelling in the glories of a failed war..

Come on, i am surprised at all the nobama's, no hillary no obama, and mccain supporters. It goes to show our partisan the USA can be, i mean people voting on color, gender and all that crap rather than facing the realities of an economic downturn, deteriorating educational system, poor international image because of unreasonable wars.

I am not eligible to vote, however in the light of recent events, I think McCain and Palin are a tard too wrong. A mum who cannot practice what she preaches and a man who is not in touch with the times are not the best choice for u america...

You gotta think straight and now is the time!!!

VOTE FOR CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN...Be Inspired.

Ron - the stakes are too high. I understand that Obama may not be a perfect candidate but we cannot afford 4 more years of dangerous budget deficits, war and bad economic policies.

We owe trillions of dollar to the Chinese because of GOP policies. If we get into a conflict, the Chinese won't have to use a single bomb. All they have to do is sell their USD foreign reserve and they're going to send us back into ice age.

Let's put our differences aside for the sake of our future.

Obama/Biden 08

After reading all these false comments bashing Dr. Paul, now I know why we keep re-electing morons and our country is going down the drain.

I supported Ron Paul's campaign with my time, energy, about $2000, and endless e-mailing. He is brilliant, as opposed to old 894 out of 899 John McCain. I hope his movement towards liberty and a constitutional government will expand. I am disappointed that he did not endorse Barack Obama. While Obama is way too liberal, he is a far, far better choice than the brain-dead neoconservative sellout McCain. With the election so close, his endorsement of Obama could have been the thing that saves our country from another four years of Bush disaster.

If people think Hillary as Secretary of State is so wonderful, you are really brainwashed. That would be the biggest disaster this country would ever see. People do not care for Pelosi so Hillary is lost her chance when she was not picked by Obama.

I say Good for Ron Paul! In Your Face!

Maybe the next time around, the GOP won't be so arrogant.

Maybe the next time they'll think twice about hiring young kids to run around the state GOP conventions handing out smear campaign flyers and shoving "Vote Unity Slate" signs in the delegates' faces while they're trying to fill out their ballots.

I know. I was there, and my name was on that smear flyer.

This is what the GOP needs, a good kick in the head.

As for Obama, sure, let him win. Let people find out what it's like to have a socialist government who takes 60% of their paycheck in the name of "social responsibility". Maybe in 2 years when it's time to pick a new Congress, they'll vote a little wiser. Maybe they'll forget about "voting Republican" or "voting Democrat". Maybe they'll read the Constitution and think about voting AMERICAN.

why isn't he running as an independant?

Ron Paul is terrific.

And this is bloody brilliant.

This reminds me of Beavis and Butthead.

Evidently,my comments doesnt matter so i will quit trying.
peg,tenn.

I can't understand the idea of using your vote as a protest. Your vote MATTERS and if you don't vote for someone who actually has a chance at winning, you end up with George Bush for 8 years. Or his wannabee successor John McCain.

If you don't like our voting system, if you want a viable third party, then work for it between elections and make it into something realistic. Nobody pays attention to your third party protest votes.

Even if you feel you're voting for the lesser of two evils....VOTE for a republican or a democrat then work to change the system in a more productive manner.

This old white woman is still voting for Obama. No protests, no gender voting.

Well, who is he taking votes away from? Someone will certainly lose in this case. The votes he gets would have gone to both other candidates. Guess he will be getting the votes from people who are disgusted with all this mess.

Hahaha, people who actually believe Paul lost fair and square, as if the media is not part and parcel of the establishment and had nothing to do with Obama the commie and McCain the fascist being where they are today. I bet these people never even checked out Google Trends to compare who was getting the most attention from the public with who got the most attention from the media and the very clear results the media attention garnered.

Fair and square. Yeah, and Fox News is fair and balanced.

Yeah, vote Obama. Big government hasn't worked because it hasn't gotten big enough, but Obama will save us from that- and we'll pay for it.

"Beware of the man who speaks of sacrifice, for he speaks of slaves and masters. And he intends to be the master." -Ayn Rand

The reality is, Nader pulls votes from Obama, and Barr pulls votes from Mccain. Yes, for all of those stupid white women voting for Palin just because she is a woman probably didn't even know there is another woman running for President, and she's black, which gets the best of both worlds. The fact is, this country is so divided based on their own biases that they are bringing to the voting booth that it is very, very sad that they are forgetting about the state of condidtions in our country and in our world, and America's place in the world. If you vote for Obama, it will ensure stability until another Republican gets voted into office again.

Hollywood Dude said:

He's a pathetic, ailing, wimp of a man. He's knows nothing of honor…he's a backstabbing loon.

What a scumbag you are. He served in our military and also has never taken one penny in his thirty plus in the Congress.Go jump off a bridge you frickin Communist.

I dont care what Ron Paul does ,I dont care what McCain/Palin HAS done,i want to know what they are going to DO.And HOW.all I hear is praise for each other, and the bridge!!!
I like a lot of people, but i dont want them to be presdent
Peg,TENN.

Ron is a great guy lets not vote for Mccain and vor for Ron

The republicans are so full of it. Wake up people this little Palin bump will NOT last

BOB BARR IS A REAL CONSERVATIVE
BOB BARR FOR PRESIDENT

I was hoping he would endorse Obama and Biden since they seem to be the next most rational / intelligent human being running for the presidency.

I actually considered voting for McCain until Sarah Palin came along.

Funny thing is that everyone, even mainstream media calls this man a nutcase, a cook or crazy but he's been right in regards to just about everything that he has predicted in the last 15 years. He warned of the dollar collapse before anyone else, he spoke of the housing bubble years before it started to pop and yet people call him crazy. I think he ideas quite a bit different than what our current administrations ideas are but is that a bad thing? People talk about Obama and his "Hope & Change" platform but go back into history and look at what George W ran on in 2000; our country would have been a lot different if he would have actually stuck to that plan.

was a good candidate .. stood by his principles.. but alas . in today's politics .. no room for a third party.. too much special interests ..
it would have been interesting if Ron Paul endorsed Hillary!!!

As clearly laid out in Paul's book The Revolution, voting for either major party results in fundamentally the same equation. You're merely picking which side of an arcade token you want to look at for the next 4 years. Obama is NOT anti-war, he continues to support keeping our troops in 130 nations (including Iraq) at our taxpayers' expense. Obama does NOT support any liberal social agenda for gays, recreational drug users or immigrants. Every time he tries to allude to one, he backtracks himself. Obama is merely the same politics with a dark hue and the choice of Biden proves it. Likewise, McCain is not a fiscal conservative by any reasonable stretch of the imagination. The GOP, while controlling all three branches of government hasn't bothered to overturn Roe v. Wade because it makes too much money for all the fiscally conservative doctors and pharmaceutical company reps profiteering from abortion. Not even Palin is going to change that, she will do exactly what Wall St. and the other benefactors of corporate welfare tell her to. The only "Maverick" or "Change Candidate" was Paul with his "moon-bat" agenda of sound fiscal policy and the removal of the Nanny State trying to micromanage everyones' life (domestically and internationally) at great American taxpayer expense. The only viable option for a patriot is NOT to continue to vote for same token presenting two sides of a moot debate, but to protest the charade by providing electoral accounting information as to the extent of our discontent. Unless you're content with the status quo, the only voice for your discontent is a 3rd. party candidate. Only the most gullible of fools thinks Obama will deliver them from corruption and abuse.

Ron Paul has apparently joined Condi Rice, Scott McClellan, and possibly Colin Powell as prominent Republicans not voting for their party. That says a lot about John "Bomb bomb bomb Iran" McCain.

Mc Cain will win this election endorse him and protect your political carrier
Be smart

Go Ron! Divide the repub vote!

the DREAM TICKET for this country right now would be:

bernie sanders & Thom Hartmann

sanders/hartmann 08 or '12!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go Ron! Divide the republican vote!

PLEASE RUN! ANYBODY BUT MCCAIN! IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR BARACK, PLEASE VOTE FOR RON PAUL. MCCAIN AND PALIN ARE LIKE A BAD MOVIE THAT I'VE SEEN OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

Former Paul Supporter 4 Obama/Biden

Anybody who was supporting Ron Paul would rather have their hands cut off before voting for these Communists. Ron Paul is against unfair taxes, that is all Barack Obama stands for. Obviously you are a Obambi troll trying to convince Ron Paul supporters of this lie. Because Ron Paul are probably the most common sense educated voters in this election(and in favor of that little document, the Constitution). Obama would roll it up and smoke joints with Ayers, that is what he would do with our constitution.

Ron Paul is against naturalized citizenship just for being born here. Obama will turn our great country into Little Kenya if he can

Ron Paul is a good messenger for limited government & fiscal restraint, bringing our troops home & keeping an arms-length from other countries' affairs, defending our constitutional rights & challenging the tax structure of this country. He makes the connection between personal freedom & material well-being, which is infringed upon by an overwheening government. Also, we're entitled to some straight talk about the ownership & control of the Federal Reserve.

Ron Paul is probably 4-5 years ahead of the times. These issues will become more topical, as people become more aware of the critical state of our economy & foreign affairs. An articulate spokesman & real gentleman, not to be under-estimated in terms of political impact now and in the future.

At this point, who cares. He is a Republican that whispers his
message. I don't like him. Against War. FOR NO BIG GOVERNMENT.
Republican Ideals!!!
Obama Biden.

Ron Paul campaigned as a capitalist, but then splits his endorsement among 2 capitalists and 2 quasi-socialists.

If anybody thinks that Ron Paul actually has any principles that he stands on, then please share with us what flavor of Kool Aid you're drinking. Because there is no way in hell that a true believer in capitalism is going to endorse extremist left-wing nutcases like Nader and McKinney.

Ron Paul's true colors just came out.

We are a nation of sheep. I guess Rush limbaugh and his ditto heads have us figured out. A week ago America was introduced to Sarah Palin via a scripted speech written by a former Bush speechwriter. And I must say she played her part very well. Based on this performance there are many people that now believe she is qualified to be president. The truth of the matter is those were not her words and she is the least known of all the candidates. I would not object to Mcain or Obama for president but to give the American public less that 2 months to get to know Palin strikes me as poltical trickery. I will not vote for Mccain at this point because this decision is so ridiculous I have lost faith in the man. This nonsense is so foolish, Palin is the focal point of the election and not the Man that will shape our country for years to come. I love my country very much but i am disgusted by our politicians… all of them. They are a despicable bunch of manipulative people who's only agenda is power , not the best interests of this country. Sarah Palin best candidate the repulicans could find or the candidate the public can't get to know in 56 days . I say the latter. And we are actually considering allowing this stupidity to become real. God Bless America… we need your help

Laura said
If the republican party would stop bible thumping for a minute and try to really represent their constituancy, Ron Paul would not have had to work so hard to make his point; that fiscal conservatives have no where to go.

I'm voting Obama/Biden, but I support and appreciate what Ron Paul is trying to do for his party and for voters who want real alternative.

I agree Laura. The right-wing has ruined this country as much as it can stand. We need someone who respects the constitution (not like the republicans)

Obama/Biden '08

The only Repuglican I would ever vote for!!

A man with convictions and values who does not flip flop whenever it is politically convenient.

And he is right! This country needs a viable thrid party.

Both the Dems and the GOP are run by corporate interests, directly and indirectly.

McCain is not a maverick. His policies will be Bush's. He is pandering to the religious right in order to get elected. He will say and do anything to become President. Appealing to Lieberman is not bipartisan action.

Obama will not erase 8 years of mismanagement. He will inherit an economic fiasco. Nor will he be able to get us out of Iraq. He may want to, and we probably should, be the realities on the ground will not allow that to happen on a grand scale.

Fortunately I live in a solid blue state, so I can vote my conscience. Ideally, our nation should be governed the same. True to its conscience. Vote Lib, Green, Constitution, Indy, P&F or any other third party. It is the only way to break the lock that corporate interests have over our democratic republic. Government of the people, by the people, for the people. Not the rich, not the corporations, not the special interests, not the lobbyists.

Elections should not be about electing the lesser of two evils. When that happens, you still get evil!

Vote your heart, vote your conscience, vote your convictions. If you want a politician to represent you, mustn't you first accurately represent yourself??!

It is very funny that many Americans are still ready for another 4 years of more of the same.

Why though? CAN ANY ONE TELL ME WHY DO LIKE MORE OF THE SAME?

lol
Most Obama work so hard to convience you of what you're facing right now in your lives.
Obama said several times, the choice is clear. You want more of the same vote Mccain flip flop.
Don't cry for me after , because you can't learn your lesson.

Back to reality. Of the 50 states, Alaska ranks No. 1 in taxes per resident and No. 1 in spending per resident. Its tax burden per resident is 2 1/2 times the national average; its spending, more than double. The trick is that Alaska's government spends money on its own citizens and taxes the rest of us to pay for it. Although Palin, like McCain, talks about liberating ourselves from dependence on foreign oil, there is no evidence that being dependent on Alaskan oil would be any more pleasant to the pocketbook.

Alaska is, in essence, an adjunct member of OPEC. It has four different taxes on oil, which produce more than 89% of the state's unrestricted revenue. On average, three-quarters of the value of a barrel of oil is taken by the state government before that oil is permitted to leave the state. Alaska residents each get a yearly check for about $2,000 from oil revenues, plus an additional $1,200 pushed through by Palin last year to take advantage of rising oil prices. Any sympathy the governor of Alaska expresses for folks in the lower 48 who are suffering from high gas prices or can't afford to heat their homes is strictly crocodile tears.

As if it couldn't support itself, Alaska also ranks No. 1, year after year, in money it sucks in from Washington. In 2005 (the most recent figures), according to the Tax Foundation, Alaska ranked 18th in federal taxes paid per resident ($5,434) but first in federal spending received per resident ($13,950). Its ratio of federal spending received to federal taxes paid ranks third among the 50 states, and in the absolute amount it receives from Washington over and above the amount it sends to Washington, Alaska ranks No. 1.

Wow Ron, I never thought you would take the Nader route. You know those people who would vote for a third party nominee typically vote Democrat. Talk about doubling your chances to steal votes from the Dems.

I dont care what Ron Paul does ,I dont care what McCain/Palin HAS done,i want to know what they are going to DO.And HOW.all I hear is praise for each other, and the bridge!!!
peg,tenn.

At least Ron Paul is right on the war

Which makes him smarter than your average republican

But seriously, how many votes will Mr Paul snatch from McCain?

LOL Obama/Biden 08/12 Hillary 16/20

Oh....it's RON Paul. And all this time I thought RuPaul was running..... Of course, an endorsement of a SINGLE candidate from RuPaul would probably carry more weight than this "go stand in line for hours to throw your vote away" suggestion......

Palin and McCain work their tooshies off in their paid jobs!

Obama writes speeches and campaigns well.

IF Obama wants me to vote for him, he needs to cast a vote for me (in the Senate) every once in a while.

McCain/Palin 2008
If they do a good job, and only if, 2012 too!

For those of us living in Georgia, the fact that Ron Paul would persuade anyone to ever cast a vote for Cynthia McKinney undermines any and all credibility he might have established. Give me a break!

This misguided idiot needs to go away. Now it's even clearer why he did not receive the support that he was expecting. Go away Ron Paul! Same goes for his supporters. Also, the media needs to stop providing a forum for him. He lost fair and square. He just ignorantly refuses to accept it.

He should get just off his high horse and throw his support to the McCain/Palin ticket. I guess he is not smart enough to make an intelligent decision. I would bet that Republicans are thrilled that they did not support him. Very smart, too.

By the way, did I mention I am a life-long Democrat and a so called disgruntled Senator Clinton supporter!

way to go Ron....please republicans jump on board this journey and vote Ron Paul...I love you sir

And to think, some of you wako dems may be living next door to my family. Anything goes in your so called progressive stance. What next, legalize beastiality? A party that calls republicans agents from hell, the future VP a pig, a sitting president a war criminal ( Who has kept your families safe from radical muslim attacks), and cowards who are afraid of being drafted (don't worry, enough patriots sign up to keep you safe). The good news is your candidate is out of gas, exercised poor judgement in picking loud mouth Biden, and the slip in the polls has just started. You will loose gain! A proud retired Air Force republican.

Stop the Drama Ron Paul. It's getting old.

Ron Paul should have supported Obama.

SAD too see even more division in America

Mr. Ron Paul, Our nation is in a serious time.. We all MUST LOOK at what and WHO is BEST for AMERICA NOW!!!! Going THIRD PARTY, is going nowhere, as it always has...We MUST LOOK at the record of WHO has been DOING and SERVING for AMERICA, for many years now. We must make the best informed decision we can, NOW, for our future and that of our children. It is no time for PLAY or POLITICs. Please, don't pull votes away from the REAL candidate. We may not be happy with ALL the candidate has done, in the past. But, as you know, Senator McCain has be doing all that ONE MAN Can do alone!!! He is now trying to get into a place where HE CAN Make a difference!!!! HE IS NOT ALL TALK. HE has served our nation well, as has his grandfather and father...HIS sons have been taught and are doing, now...His choice of Gov. Sarah Palin as runner for Vice-president , proves he wants someone who has ALREADY taken on their own party, as he has, TO HELP HIM, bring the change to Washington, that we NEED. OBAMA has TALKED a LOT, but has not EVEN served ONE DAY, in the military!!!! HE just wanted to get a lawyers diploma and RUSH UP the ladder to the TOP JOB of PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES!!! What a SHAME and a DISGRACE, it would be, to vote someone like this over ALL our serving HIGH RANKING Military men and women!!!! Over the UNITED STATES as Commander-In-Cheif!!!!! It is unthinkable!! PLEASE, take a stand against this happening, and DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR OUR GREAT NATION.... You will never regrete it... Judy, in Tenn.

Your all right Ron. But your just too honest and decent to be a Republican. Look up Levi Johnston on his my space page, if McBush has not had it removed. This is the nastiest, most foul mouthed, violent punk in my space. The presumed new future member of the Palin family. i loved watching mcBush hugging and clinging to him like a son. If Levi actually does marry the presumed Christian child, Bristol Palin. Is this what the Bible refers to as un equally yoked?
This Punk would not marry my daughter nor have any role in raising my grand child. Maybe I just have higher expectations than Palin.

I guess McCain and Obama will loose about a 980 votes...wow!!

McCain /Palin 08

For those of you who think Ron Paul is anything like Obama, think again. Paul is conservative when it comes to taxes, healthcare, etc. He is libertarian when it comes to foreign affairs. He isn't democrat when it comes to anything.

Ron Paul is great, but realistically until the third parties produce a candidate that is truly capable of getting ahead of the other candidates, You're basically wasting your vote.

If the republican party would stop bible thumping for a minute and try to really represent their constituancy, Ron Paul would not have had to work so hard to make his point; that fiscal conservatives have no where to go.

I'm voting Obama/Biden, but I support and appreciate what Ron Paul is trying to do for his party and for voters who want real alternative.

He would have made a great president.

McCain for President 100%. He has fought for us and will always fight for us to keep America free.He will do more for America than Obama, a muslim with muslim faith. People open your eyes, if Obama gets in, he will sell us out to the muslims and we will lose our freedom. He won't fight for us. He will tuck his tail and run or side with non americans. He has already wanted to surrender.

And why is this important?

Ladies and Gentlemen, I just want to express my gratitude for your support. Please support me, so we can "change" America. This is a term I've always wanted to use, but my opponent has been a very smart guy and presented quiet reasonable proposal like; $50 billion to jump starting the economy, affordable,comprehensive health care for children and women. But i do care for all of you too, I'm just too worried about our security, the Postwar effects on me seem to drive to one conclusion: Though many people and some Doctors agree that i still seem to be suffering from post war distress syndrome and some memory deficits, all i know is that we are doomed to constant insecurity plague as long as these terrorist stay alive. We must get them. Help me get them, fight with me!

Thank you all and God bless you as he does America.

CNN DO YOUR JOB. MCCAIN PUTS OUT A BLATANT FALSE SMEAR AD, WHAT DO YOU DO???? YOU INSTEAD PUT UP AN ARTICLE PARAPHRASING A MISLEADING MCCAIN CAMP PRESS RELEASE ATTACKING BIDEN FOR BRINGING UP THE ISSUE OF STEM CELL RESEARCH.

Vote for Palin and we're all on the bridge to nowhere, and going there fast

It is so funny how people trash Obama for attacking Palin, when she spent her time on the convention and any other time she got bashing Obama. I think Palin sees this as a way for her to use more government funds to pay for her lavish lifestyle choices. Are we all willing to pay for her children to come see her in the white house or where ever else she decides she needs to go? I am ok with Mccain, but if he dies and Palin is placed as president I think we are in for a lot of trouble. She might make it where we won't be able to have a single opinion of our own without it being illegal. I read she asked about banning books in her home town. What is up with that?!!! You people can act as dumb as you like. Keep living in your fantasy world believing everything that comes out about Palin is a lie. It will be so funny when her true nature shows. That much information that has come out is not a lie it is the truth about a crooked VP named SARAH PALIN!!!

Take a good look at the last American revolutionary. This man embodies our spirit much as Washington did. A roll up your sleeves do it yourselfer. This man crafted himself from humble beginnings as a man of principle and integrity. His contributions to his community, economics, the medical field, and our country deserve your applause. A true inspiration to us all to live and be free. Free from the ever growing coercive federal government.

Everyone saying stupid things like "he should endorse Obama" or "he's a nut case", have obviously done no research on Ron Paul.

1. He would never endorse Obama because Obama supports big government, Ron's the opposite. Just because they both are against the War in Iraq doesn't mean they agree on anything else.

2. And he doesn't believe 9/11 was an "inside job" that's ridiculous. The only reason why some "9/11 Truthers" support him is because if he was elected, he'd get the 9/11 Comission Report redone which he believes wasn't done properly.

Go Obama/Biden!!! They are what this country needs right now.

Obama for President!!!!!

He's a Republican. It's not hard to figure out who he will be supporting.

America...Wake up!

Maccain and palin are both Bush third terms and we don't need these people in the white house they are uneducated they never gratuated in college they never have a PGD they don't nothing about the economy these people are fake. OBAMA is the only who brings change and put his country first.

Some of the most creative, thoughtful and funny people I know are going to write in Ron Paul's name when they vote this November. Maybe there's something about him that draws the truly different people to him. I doubt the true believers will settle for anyone else, even if Paul urges them to vote for someone else.

Accept no Substitutes!

I like Ron Paul.

jamie:
how about you go home. the election is 56 days away and if you ever followed any election or knew anything about the presidential election you would know things can change and always do. Please do the rest of humanity a favor and educate yourself before opening your mouth and spilling ignorance all over the place! You lack common sense, nothing is over yet, you know nothing

Clown

Can somebody tell me what's the percentage of voters whose behind Ron Paul I was wondering that if the numbes are going to make John McCain lose then go ahead Ron encourage your voters. On a serious note: who is this guy anyway and how come I never heard of him? I guess we can blame the media since McCain does these days. So that make the race for the white house a little more interesting – Two strong candiates -Obama/Biden – then we have Two weaker candiates – McCain/Palin so the winners are....tune in Nov 4th election day.

Obama/Biden

I was a independent until this year. I wil never vote for the GOP again. I have never more intolerent people in my life. They go to church and on their way out they spew out hate and bigotry. Never again!!!!

All Ron Paul supporters need to vote for Ralph Nader in 08 research him!! see a true representative of what this country needs!! vote Nader/Gonzalez in 08!!! he is already the 3rd most popular continder..why not give him the boost he has more than deserved for so many times of running!!!

Please visit..www.votenader.org for more info!

O AND THE ONLY REASON WHY RON PAUL WON'T BACK OBAMA IS BECAUSE THEY DISAGREE ON A COUPLE THINGS AND OBAMA IS DEMOCRAT !!!!
WHY WONT HE BACK MCCAIN IDK !!!!

yes Ron Paul is for smaller Government but if he supports the current administration that he is preaching against then he just lost all respect and will loose the respect of thousands of followers!

And to Jamie....its not about the popular vote girl...its about the almighty Electorial Vote

I have respect for Paul as he is trying to work with or help the people, now whether he supports Obama or McCain is not going to happen,he will most likely go with Barr, to pick all four other candidates makes no sense. He is for less government so I dont think he will endorse Obama. Just as a side note Obama never called Palin a pig, its not his manner nor his vocabulary. Although Palin has out and out lied to the people you got the conservatives going with her just because she is, one a woman , two pro-life, three white. I lost respect for Mc Cain becasue all the time I felt he was for country picking Palin who clearly is not ready to step in President god forbid something happened to war man John says he is about winning not the country or its security.

This old guy, besides being a good man, is a genius.

102. JAMIE
YALL LOST !!!!!
OBAMA HAS 92% OF NEW VOTERS !!!!!
HUGE TURNOUT FOR OBAMA !!!!

Obama 08, 12 0forever

Ron Paul for President!!!

Well, and we were all on the edge of our seats waiting to see who you'd endorse.

File this under Factoids.

Waste of this endorsement. what is the point of endorsing and giving support for some candidate who is not going to be winning. You can give that support to Obama and negotiate your policy with him.
This way you both win.

Obama and McCain? EW! No thank you!!!

I think this time I want a principled candidate, and someone who will obey the Constitution, and act honestly.

Evil is that evil is– Obama called no person a pig. go back to the to school, learn to understand what is read.

So Ron Paul wants us to vote None-Of-the-Above ??

I am big supporter of personal liberties and strong monetary policy, and thus supported Dr. Paul, but this is a bad move.

I vote because I stand FOR something, not against everything!

Here we go; stupid is that, that stupid does. The same goes for those folks who rather vote for the same. Women men and all others who will vote for McCain are not about making a difference in this USA. We are such a country in a devastating mess that we rather cover our eyes and continue to dig ourselves deeper

The polls tell many of us that it is about Obama being black and about who they are polling, who and where are these people? We don't believe these polls because they do not speak to the average American who is hurting. Who knows who is making up these numbers? So, deal with what you get, you will deserve it.

Obamanuts,go home...its over, now that Palin is on the ticket! YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST...LoL

I find it so entertaining to read some of these comments. The idea that Paul would endorse Obama? Hahahahahahaha. The only thing that will change with Obama in office is the name on the white house stationary and the color of the presidents skin. Ya, Paul will endorse a CFR candidate that represents everything wrong with the establishment. And then those that joke about Paul... Do they also joke about Thompson and Giuliani? Or how about Romney, who unlike Paul couldn't continue to fund his campaign? And lets not forget that Paul, month after month, raised more money from our active duty troops- you know, the ones the establishment candidates use for their own benefit- than any of the other candidates. So do you people mock the values of our troops that defend us after mocking Paul? Really.

Well, I would'nt expect for him to vote for Obama (him being a repub and all) but I find it interesting that he's not endorsing McCain, maybe some reublicans arent as insane as most

I generally agreed with everything Ron Paul expressed, couple of things I didnt agree with but one thing I found totally unfathomable is that the Republican party effectly ended coverage of Ron Paul's bid for the Republican party by shutting him out through the use of the media. I find it equally disturbing that the McCain machine will say or do anything to get elected, even to go so far as to select a Barbie doll that is not qualified to be a VP, once her 15 minutes of fame are over, America will see through her and are going to have a really hard time selecting McCain, really comes down to, when McCain wants Palin's opinion, he'll give it to her so that she can read it from a teleprompter.

If I felt that a third party system would work I would go for it. But this year I cannot with any faith in my heart waste my vote. I have to vote for a change not only for myself, the country, the men and women who are serving to protect our country, but also for the future of our children and grandchildren. I have had enough of politic as usual. It's time for a change and if it doesn't work we can try again in four years. Obama/Biden this time around.

McCain a last minute gambler.

let me start off by saying that i am supporting obama and i really like what he has to say and the way that he says it but there is one thing that i would like to suggest to him to stop saying because it only displays how he and his opponent are both out of touch with the regular joe citizen. i would like for both of them to stop talking to the american public about earmarks and pork barreler or pork barrel spending and lobbyyists and all of these terms that i am sure that they know that more than half of the population has no idea of what they are talking about. i would advise Obama to use specifics when talking about how governor palin hired a lobbyist so that she could recieve earmarks for her state. what i mean is explain to the american public what is an earmark and give us an example of how she benefited from these earmarks. the same with pork barrel spending and also with what exactly is the function of a lobbyist. I will bet you 1,000 dollars that if you ask 100 regular people in any city and state what is the function of a lobbyist or what is an earmark or give an examlple of what pork barrel spending is 99% of these people would not be able to answer any of these questions. the only conclusion i could come to, to why they (politicians) never explain to the general public what all these things are is that they want to keep the american public in the dark and want to keep things as is in order to keep up with the corruption.

Why do people who are voting for Obama think he is going to bring about change? Above, Tony said that he wants to balance budgets, bring the troops home, restore personal liberty, and all kinds of other untrue crap. I am a huge Ron Paul advocate, and don't get me wrong, I despise McCain as well. However, John McCain supporters don't go around saying that he is going to bring about change, because he wont; Just like Barack Obama isn't going to bring about change. How could Barack Obama be a supporter of liberty if he promotes and income tax? And not just an income tax, a higher tax for those who make large amounts of money? How can you support liberty if you do not respect the most basic liberty, which is your RIGHT TO LIFE. IMO, if you arent man enough to say when a baby gets its liberties, like he wasn't in the Saddleback interview, then you have no business in the White House. How does life not begin at conception Mr. Barack Obama, our dear supporter of Life & Liberty? For if conception did not happen, the life would not have existed at all. THEREFORE, life starts at CONCEPTION and babies gets rights at conception. Oh and by the way, if you call bring the troops home transferring them to Pakistan and Afghanistan, then by all means, vote for Barack Obama. The magical change candidate.

Get real CNN junkies, and stop insulting the only real advocate of balanced budgets, liberty, and bringing the troops home.

Go Ron!

This is a guy who believes in UFO's and wanted to dismantle the ATF. Anyone who votes for Ron Paul or one of his endorsements is not making a difference in this country.

He's a pathetic, ailing, wimp of a man. He's knows nothing of honor...he's a backstabbing loon.

Obama Truth Squad, because he was campaigning in 2007 thats why. What about the rest of the years check your facts now.

Interesting about Ron Paul...

As a devout Christian voter tired of the extreme Christian right pretending to speak for me, I am extremely disturbed by McCain/Palin (or should I say McCain/Ann Coulter). The extremely conservative views of Ms. Palin will not serve our country well (including teaching religion in public schools via intelligent design for God's sake?! C'mon who's going to teach what the curriculum, Rev. Phelps?!). Also, the fact that the extreme right is ecstatic at Palin suggests to me that the economy is going to be put on the back seat in favor or the latest social issue that social conservatives believe in.

It is time to heal this world, to help those in need, and narrow the gap between rich and poor. It is time to wake up and accept that we need to work together once and for all. While I do not think abortion is right, I also do not think that that is the worst problem plaguing our country. I think helping the poor (instead of more tax breaks for the rich), not risking the retirement of our seniors by privatizing social security, helping the environment, and ensuring we have insurance for all is extremely important. This is the true embodiment of Christian love.

God forbid something happens to McCain and she's our president?! She's so polarizing! I think Ms. Palin’s views on intelligent design, praying the gay away, funding of private Christian schools over public schools, and the like to see how she is very similar to Ann Coulter ideologically. McCain clearly showed poor decision-making in picking her–being pressured by the extreme right-wing. What we end up with is worse than even Bush/Cheney–we end up with a McCain/Coulter!

Pity, this guy was talking about closing the border, reducing direct taxation of income...

Basically all of the things most Americans have been asking out of their Government but not receiving.

Either Obama or McCain means another flood of illegal immigration by 2016.

Roundabout 90% of Americans want this border problem solved, yet they choose two candidates who continue exactly what we have. There's some sort of cognitive dissonance going on.

NO CHANGE=OBAMA, he is staying with the same old Washington politics, Biden??? He was elected to the senate when Osama was just 8 years old! And this is change? Thank god McCain called on a real reformer to be V.P. VOTE FOR TRUE CHANGE...VOTE MCCAIN/PALIN 2008/2012!!!!!!!

Heck Yeah!! Thanks Ron for the 2008 Nader effect along with that Bar guy.

Endorse Barr, please! (I am so hoping he will swing GA away from McCain to Obama!)

What an idiot! Who wants or needs his endorsement.?? Maybe the one or two people who would have voted for him.

Dr. Ron Paul! What more can I say? Everyone is entitled to their own.... you know what.

Too little too late, most people have made up their minds to vote for a McCain /Palin ticket and Bob Barr will not make a significant`change in the race. Mabe they'll have a better chance in 4.

Logically.....he should have thrown his support behind Liberterian candidate Bob Barr, a former peer and Republican congressman.....but like many of Mr. Paul's supporters logic doesn't seem to enter into the equation......

The attacks of 9/11 were perpetrated by members of al-queda and masterminded by Khalid Shiek Mohammed...........It was not an "INSIDE JOB".

Sorry, I forget, what's the name of the ship that brought paul from planet mars. I wonder if remember that palin and mccain swooped down with him.

Joe Biden is an idiot! What a slime ball comment directed at Palin and her down syndome child. Democrats are heartless scum and never never never change year in and year out. Biden is a typical career liberal senator that will stoop to ANY level to try and garner a vote. Message to the dem's and their worthless party – this comment from ole "foot in his mouth" Biden will come back to bite you low life's big time!!

Good for Paul! However, he should be acutely aware that the godless communists in the White House who have engineered the greatest communist takeover in history–making Lenin, Stalin, and a lot of other people totally belittled–cannot allow anti-communists to succeed and so will do everything in their power to make sure one of the big boys wins, probably the most pliable, which would be McPalin.

Ugh...nobody called her a pig! Although I would call her a b**ch! she called herself a dog (i.e. pitbull w/lipstick) so she is open to criticism! She is not a pretty little princess child, she is running for VP and could be a heartbeat away from the presidency! She can take a punch get over it!

if john mccain is president it is going to be the begining of world war 3. America be ready for a blood bath. maccain is iddicted to war. Russia wiil not hesitate strike america

if he would run independent i may have supported him. at least he would remove troops from iraq.

Ron Paul views on these issues he mentioned for the most part are the same as Obama so I don't know why he would be so up in the air and try to denounce Obama other that maybe jealously that he didn't get as far as he had hoped. Either way all you Ron Paul Supporters are welcome to jump aboard the Obama Train headed for the White House

I'd love to vote for Bob Barr for President, but he cannot win. I don't want Barak Obama to become President. So I'm voting for voting for John McCain.

Barak is toast!!!

Ugh, Obama did not call Sarah a pig. That is not his style.

As far as Ron Paul, REALLY, who would honestly listen to him?

Obama/Biden 08

Ron, I support your basic Constitutional approach, but to tell your folks to support a third party who WILL NOT WIN you will be enabling an Obama win who has already called for a Marxist redistribution of wealth and vows to disarm the US and remove Constitutional freedoms like the First Amendment with the comeback of the so called newspeak "Fairness Doctrine."

I would urge your supporters to do everything they can to insure a McCain/Palin win. Palin is very close to your ideals and will be a much more effective influence in the White House than a failed third party forgotten candidate!

Ron Paul can't support the Democrats but he's leaving his own party. At least the man can see the republicans have put the U.S. economy in a free fall.

Former Mayor of New York – Ed Koch said.

"Sara Palin is a plucky, exciting candidate, but when her record is examined, she fails miserably with respect to her views on the domestic issues that are so important to the people of the U.S., and to me. Frankly, it would SCARE me if she were to succeed John McCain in the Presidency."

Go figure!!!

David Duke's Buddy? Well at least he wants to shut down the privately run "Federal Reserve"! But, ehem, David Duke's buddy, check out the funding folks!

Republicrats: don't throw your vote away again this Election. Find a platform you actually believe in. McCain DOES NOT = change; Obama DOES NOT = change. Change = not voting for a presumptive winner.

Ron Paul must be a good man to have so many followers.

Obama/Biden

Tony said: "If you really want to support the candidate that is for investigating the Federal Reserve you should back Barack Obama."

- uh....... Obama has NEVER ONCE hinted at investigating the fed.

Great news from Ron Paul!!!

McCain railroaded this man, and now he's paying them back!!!!!!

McCain/Palin are "Mavericks to Nowhere"!

*No exit strategy from Iraq
*No plan for health care
*No idea how to fix the economy

Debby – Obama had ZERO earmarks last year. Check your facts.

Interesting how people with nothing better to do than post on CNN are disparaging a man who's at least trying to make a difference and putting himself out there. All those mocking Ron Paul should ask themselves what they're doing to make this country a better place.

Politics First

Ron paul the Ralph nader of the republicans?

And everyone thought the Republicans were so united. Don't underestimate his supporter. Would be great if he did endorse Obama!!!

Obama sold out millions of us when he decided to switch his vote in favor of Government spying on it's own citizens. He showed us his true colors at that point.

A vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil. A vote is an endorsement and I'm not endorsing republicans or democrats this November. To a third party I go.

"No questions, please; Palin sticks to her script" AP

I thought many people alrady figure this out. She is a DUMMY

Give 'em hell Ron!

It is his perogative to endorse Cynthia McKinney and it is the voters right to vote for her but a waste of votes if you ask me.

Obama closest to Ron Paul? That made me laugh. Raun Paul is for no govt and Nobama is for ALL govt. Nobama cult followers are so high and confused they don't even know what their candidate stands for anymore

Cynthia McKinney ??? Any respect I may have had for Ron Paul was just lost. Do you know any thing about Cynthia McKinney? We citizens of Georgia wouldn't vote for this loony tune to clean the streets, much less be President. What a joke.

(TRUTH) Sara Palin recently stated she does not know what a vice president does.

Yet 50% of people polled think she is ready to be president. (CRAZY)

(TRUTH) When she speaks the truth NOBODY believes her.

When she tells a lie everyone believes her. (ABSOLUTE MADNESS)

(TRUTH) John McCain recently stated he doesn't know much about the economy.

Yet he is leading in the polls when this election is supposed to be about the economy. (TOTALLY INSANE)

(FACTUAL OPINION) If John McCain was black, Obama would win in a landslide and millions of people wouldn't bother to vote.

CNN please post my comment for once and stop leaving it "under modernization"

ron paul and his cast of idiots ,bye bye

You Republican are just silly children. You don't have any substance to add to your comments so you just bash and keep bashing. Knowing full well you candidate has no experience or and it's beginning to become clear no morals when it comes to telling the truth, half truths don't count.

She's like a puppet repeat the same lies from her convention speech.

I think that Ron Paul is being devisive so that Barak Obama will get split votes and he really wants McCain to win. Why on earth would he go against his party. I tell you that this is going to come down to the basic level and let's not make it about color lets get some change going. I really don't think that Ron Paul's candidate will win either but he I believe wants to make it much more difficult for someone who wants change and Washington is afraid of this and they will do anything not to have Barak in there. I know my US history and this is the devisiveness that is holding America back and don't think that the world isn't watching. I think that if we vote in the lame duck candidate John McCain who will only committ for one term given his current age I don't think that we will get what we need for real change with Sara either because she will be considered an outsider and you don't shake up washington with her current resume. Just comments from the informed.

Those of you who think Obama will bring peace are sadly mistaken. We have troops in over 700 countries and bases in 130. Obama won't touch that. Look at the federal deficit and then look at what each candidate proposes. Can we afford Obama or McCain?

Probably the first Republican I've been impressed with – pretty smart and genuine man. I especially liked:

Anti-war (aka DIPLOMACY! (which should take as much credit as any "surge" did)

How's that Mr "pro-life, pro-draft, pro-death penalty" McCain!

I am an Obama supporter but I am very happy to see this from Ron Paul. If no one challenges the establishment than we will all go to h*ll in a hand bucket (Bush/Cheney have already nearly taken us there). He has earned my respect.

Ron Paul is as crazy as all his supporters. How can he endorse both the libertarian party candidate and the green party candidate??? I bet that makes a lot of sense in his mind.

Hopefully voters in Texas in 2 years will come to their senses and get this nut out of Congress.

Ron give it up. You are a rabble rouser. You lost and now it is time for you to dismount and get off the world stage.

You are a distraction and not a serious candidate. Move on Ron and get on board the "Straight Talk Express."

Why in the hell would a former Ron Paul supporter throw his/her support behind Obama/Biden?

"If you really want to support the candidate that is for balancing budgets, bringing troops home, personal liberties, and investigating the Federal Reserve and has a chance of winning, you should back Barack Obama."
–Tony

Obama doesn't stand for these things. He's flip-flopped on Iran, he voted for retroactive telecom immunity, and has never seriously mentioned investigating the federal reserve. Pretty much the only quality that you mentioned that he actually posses is a good shot at winning. Both Obama and McCain preach distinctly different messages from Ron Paul, and thus he can't, in good conscience, throw his support behind either major party candidate. However, I do believe that endorsing all third party candidates is a wasted and ultimately meaningless gesture. The only redeeming quality shared by the different third party candidates is that they present an alternative to the two devious faces of the political coin that constitute the Democratic and Republican parties.

Ron Paul would be a true reformer as the Republican Candiadate. IF that was what republicans wanted, Paul would be their nominee. Instead the RNC embraced a candidate who has caved to extremist industry and social lobbies.

I would vote for Paul et al, if I thought it would get the RNC bums out of DC.

GC

I think Ron Paul is man of great courage. I look forward to what he has to say and I hope he continues in the courageous path he has forged thus far. And I hope he points out that McCain is just a tax and spend Republican. He plans on taxing my employer-paid medical benefits as income to pay for his endless war. That"s right. My benefit premiums paid by my employer become income and he taxes them! I"m not rich. I will go under. I will have to opt out of the insurance to avoid those taxes & keep my home. A lot of people will. Talk about increasing the uninsured! Does this plan help working families like me? I hope Ron Paul speaks the truth.

The way the Republican party treated this man is a disgrace to our democratic election process.
Some of his supporters reported when they went to vote for him. He was removed from some states ballots. They were told he dropped out when in fact he didn't.
That is disgraceful ..This is not A coronation.This is a DEMOCRACY..I hope!
He was the most out spoken candidate about ending Iraq..And he also recieved the most donations from our troops overses than any other candidate.
He deseves our repsect and not ridicule.

If Obama really called Palin a pig, then I think the people of America should call him a complete loser. I find that hard to believe that he would be so stupid as to do that, but then he is not what I would call a mental giant by no means. Obama must be running scared of her to stoop to calling her names. To think this guy just might be our next President. And you say you love Obama??? Yuk!!!

Can we get serious please!

Ron Paul SHOULD endorse Barrack Obama. Really he SHOULD!
It will for sure tell us whether he is a Republican or a Democrat!
He ran on the Republican ticket! so what makes anyone think he
would endorse Obama. When he was running, he mumbled NO
BIG GOVERNMENT STANDING SIDE BY SIDE WITH BUSH-REPUBLICANS!

I remember how people reacted when Bush was elected in 2000 – How could 50,000,000 people be so "smart"?! Guess what – there was even more "good" news in 2004 – the number of "smart" people grew by >20%(!) to 62,000,000! I'm sure you can't wait to know who are those 62,000,000 "smart" people – well, your wait is over:

93% of republicans (well, that's totally expected)
86% of individuals for whom terrorism is the most important issue
(simply terrific job by Cheney&Rove)
85% of individuals who supported war in Iraq (sure, we are over there for a good reason)
84% of conservatives (by definition they have no new ideas – again, expected)
63% of gun owners (afraid that unless big daddy (Bush/Cheney/McCain) will protect them, someone else will take away their toys)
58% of individuals making > $100,000 per year (don't wonna pay more taxes)

Yes, "smart" in America did it in 2000 and 2004 – will they do it again in 2008?!!!

A man with some sense. Can't endorse his own party.

His suggestion, for those who do not like their own party to vote for a third party, is a good one. I'm voting Obama, but I don't consider ANY vote wasted, if we can reach a three party system, or better yet, a NO party system, it will only serve to improve the quality we are given every four years. We have the quality in the Obama/Biden ticket this year fortunately, but that has not been the case in years past.

By all means, if you don't like either of the main candidates...support a third party, the vote does count, because it sends a message that you are getting fed up with too few choices.

Looking at the RealClear poll of polls on the Internet I find that when the contest is Obama vs. McCain (with Barr, and Nader), Obama is ahead by 3.4% in the popular vote. Obama is ahead and has been so for several days in the Electoral College vote. Ya all should remember how Obama beat Clinton. Obama won because he worked the numbers in the delegate count. Obama won more delegates than did Clinton and thereby won the nomination. Obama is doing the same thing in the Electoral College vote. Obama is winning there, not McCain. Remember who elects the president. It is the Electoral College that elects the president. Obama is working the numbers again and will become the next POTUS.

This is the man who should be president. A constitutional genius is in our midst and not many people discovered him until it was too late. I pray for his return in 2012, and will be campaigning and donating as much as possible. Ron, I'll be keeping a close watch. You are one of the only true American Politicians left in this day and age, and I tip my hat to you sirrrrrrrrr. Thanks for your wisdom and inspiration!

By the way your convention in Minneapolis was AMAZING!!!!!!

It would be best if he would nominate himself...

I love all the ingorant folk here who think they are witty by posting such asinine comments as "who?" or "go back to your cave." Ron Paul's bid for presidency and his subsequent Campaign for Liberty is gathering speed like a tropical storm in the Atlantic. And soon the Hurricane will hit and all of these naysayers who REFUSED to see the clouds on the horizon will simply be swept aside as the real conservatives take their party back.

It's sad he's has to spell it out. Yes, there are other candidates. Too many people disillusioned with the process, from Paulites to Clintonistas, are threatening to "stay home" on election day. Frankly, there just isn't an excuse for that.

Participate! The democracy you get is the one you create.

Ron better luck next time

And exactly why should anyone care about what he does or does not do?

How is it you guys at CNN never cared what Ron Paul thought before Palin shook thing up in this race.

Your stories of the past week are nothing more than stories that only stir the pot of hate and lies against Gov Palin.

Your must want McCain to win because all this hate is only helping the right and rallying them against the left and their smear machine.

Another nail in the coffin of the media and its bias.

Are you the Forth Estate or the fifth column?

Ron Paul for President

When you can really stand up and say you are a Republican or
with entirely Republican ideas, and you don't put a paper bag over
your head these days, you are NO different and have the SAME ideals.
Now, there is one difference, what you say is in a very soft spoken tone. Otherwise, if we, the people, listen carefully, Ron Paul, is
Republican that is for NO BIG GOVERNMENT! Which means, you
are on your own, even though you paid into S.S. all those years and
that is all we hear, is YOU, FOLKS are on your own, even though
we shipped your jobs overseas! Health insurance is $12,000 a year
for a small family and who profits-Big Corporations. Raise the gas
sky high and never apologize to the American People because you,
the Reps, know that McCain voted against Minimum Wage 9 or 19
times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No Big Government. We take the jobs, give tax
breaks to Big Corporations and let Them like WAL MART make Billions
of Dollars a month.

Please, Rep. Paul - endorse Sen. Obama! Those you would endorse have no hope, not a chance, not a prayer (oops, better watch it lest Sarah castigate me) of winning.
Please endorse a winning ticket!

I respect Paul, but if he wants to do something meaningful he should either endorse one Independent candidate, or endorse Obama.

Senator Clinton is the only candidate capable of being the best President for our children, our troops and America

ron, if you want to support a candidate who wants what is best for himself, regardless of whether it is what's best for America, support obama

the third parties should join forces and attempt to get the largest showing for a third party candidate thus far....

Ron, please do not waste those votes. Obama is the closest to your platforms. Endorse him.

Thank you. That vote will no doubt prove to be in Obama's favor.

Obama/President
Biden/Vice President
Clinton/Secretary Of State

Love everything you stand for Ron!!! Especially bringing the troops home so I am voting for Obama/BIden. NO MORE WARS!!!!! Peace is Patriotic!

YEA.......GOOOD FOR RON PAUL......MCCAIN GOT BE SCARE ABOUT THIS MOVE......HAHAHAHAHAHHA

I am surprised he didn't endorse Obama since he praised him on the Bill Maher show. I just read Obama has almost one billion in earmarks and McCain 0. How is he suppose to get us out of debt when he is in one himself with all his spending. He and Biden supported the Bridge to Nowhere and Palin did at first until she found out how much it cost then she took some of the money for other projects in her state. Her and another Senator wanted to give the rest to the relief fund for Katrina. Its all in the Chicago Tribune read and weep Dems.

I think he is going to endorse Barack Obama.

OBAMA today called PALIN a pig in Lebanon, VA..

"You can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig."

I [HEART] Obama

Ron Paul-

Will you stand against your current party trying to lie their way to a victory?

Will you renounce the Palin Swift Boat Truth Squad?

Will you ask the campaign to stick to the issues?

What do you really stand for?

Ron "Crazy man" Paul.

After he endorses a third party candidate, he will prove that the government blew up the WTC...with the help of some aliens.

If only our political system could be changed such that 3rd party candidates could have a bigger voice in our government. This two party system. while better than a lot of systems, is quite broken.

In order to ensure that 3rd party and no party candidates get a fair say in our society, we have to change the system from the ground up - especially the way we vote.

Too bad that our current system is so entrenched in two-party politics. I think many people would vote for 3rd party candidates if they thought that it mattered.

Ron, if you back four completely different candidates you stand for nothing. If you really want to support the candidate that is for balancing budgets, bringing troops home, personal liberties, and investigating the Federal Reserve and has a chance of winning, you should back Barack Obama.

I get it. Libertarians should support government regulator Nader, a fruitcake like McKinney or a loon like Bob Barr. Wacko.

What a nut case.

Why do people keep beating-up on George Bush Jnr.. Everything he did, was to please his Dad. His Dad, let the Country down...
Dad's expect too much from their Kid's. John Mcain, won't allow anybody to tell him what to do. Except America... His Mentor: Is Uncle-Sam..

Ron Paul, hang on in there, I think you should accpet your party's nomination.

OBAMA / BIDEN

Who cares? Go back to your cave Ron.
