    Anywho back to the actual topic.

    The main reason I posted this and somewhat pointed to its importance is this:

    After the announcement on Sat. Night I got a phone call from my wife's grandfather who is a staunch Bush/Cheney/Mccain/Palin/Beck/Fox News supporter. He goes on to tell me about how RP won and how he was getting tired of the same ole same ole don't stand up for they talk Republicans currently involved in our system. He also is still not sold on the foreign policy aspect of RP but I simply asked him to looked into the economic factors of spending 1 trillion dollars a year for it. Now I know he will do his research and come up with his own opinion.

    The fact of the matter is RP may not run for Pres. and even if he does may not win. But himself, his ideas, and his followers are making a change in the Republican party for the better. Hell who do you think started the damn Tea Parties until Fox News started to claim it for the neo cons.

    I'm just glad Palin isn't further ahead. I like Paul and Romney, but I've grown tired of everything related to Palin.

    That is correct. Generally the Neo Conservative branch is much older.

    The point is that younger voters have no clue.

    Older voters think they have a clue.

    the last sentence make me unsure if you are sarcastic. but i agree with you if you were sincere. ron paul is spectacular on almost all domestic issues, but he isnt nearly aggro enough with foreign policy.

    Obama got elected b/c the Republicans couldn't deliver on their own ideologies. Nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.
