    this week I changed my voter status to Republican. (Never in my life did I imagine myself becoming a Republican.)

    I will keep this new status until after the Florida Primaries in January.

    I did it for Ron Paul. Read this interview to find out why...

      My husband and I are doing the same. He is the one candidate that stands out with integrity. He refuses to be a part of the retirement system enjoyed by other members of Congress. To my way of thinking, he may well be our last, best hope to save this nation.

        Ron Paul. One of the best we've ever had to chose as a President.

          In the most hopeful of worlds, where Ron Paul lives, every complex problem has a simple solution.

          Yeah, right!

            My biggest reservations about Ron Paul is...

            (1)Scorched Earth policy on social programs:Wouldn't be as bad if he got all of our jobs back...otherwise it's real bad on the poor.

            (2)Roe vs Wade

                From the above link:

                Q: What do you think of Social Security?

                A: It's a mess. And it proves that the government is not very good at central economic planning, even for retirement. The money was taken from the people with good intention. We should do our best to return it to those that have taken it. But we need to allow the young people to just flat out get out of the system. Because, if you have the government managing these accounts, it's not going to work.

                So...what happens to 25% of the population which is entering retirement over the next couple of decades? Any answers?

                  Kucinich carries the Constitution with him wherever he goes, what differentiates the two of them? Kucinich wants universal not for profit healthcare, what does Dr. Paul offer as a solution to that problem. It seems all of the reps talk about is God and terrorism.

                    Ron Paul makes as much sense as any of the candidates. I like his nonintervention in other government's internal affairs.

                      If I were an American ... and Ron Paul is really for real, he would get my vote.

                            Be advised:

                            Fox News is now barring Ron Paul from a presidential forum just 2 days before the primaries.

                              Ron Paul has a great commentary in the local newspaper. He has so much common sense! Common sense is what we need!

                                      Ron Paul is going to need another $23M to pull this off.

                                      How can we get it to him?

                                        First, Ron Paul becomes the Republican nominee. Second, Dr. Paul becomes President Paul. Third, our country becomes America again.
