Just a thought. So many other things like the blimp and the money bomb ideas are run independent of the campaign, why not raising a small amount for an NH audit/recount?
There's only about 150K votes or so. That's not that many, really.
Dig deep my friend, but if the reports are true that his campaign spent a miserly sum in NH, he has more loot in his coffers than we do. IOW, his apparent tight fisted campaign should consider it a wise investment to pay for the recount with the money they have on hand. After all, it is our money.

I don't know what to think right now about the Ron Paul thing. Delay means the recount will not happen.
The application shall be made in writing to the secretary of state and shall be submitted no later than the Friday after the primary for a recount of all ballots cast for such nomination.
If Ron Paul doesn't take the lead in this that will speak volumes. He's been a congressman for 20 yrs. You can't tell me that he doesn't know the election system is corrupt from top to bottom. His exposure of it is what he owes his supporters who have given him time and $20m. Alex Jones just said that he is concerned we've heard nothing from Ron Paul and that he doesn't want to have to lobby his campaign.
I agree that Ron should be making some kind of statement after the NH primaries and I can't find that any has yet been made.

Just to keep things in proper perspective, we've not donated or worked for *him*. We've worked for liberty for ourselves. I wouldn't want to think of it in terms of him "owing" us anything. We think and hope he's a great pres candidate but no one is perfect.
Actions speak louder than words...he's about to reveal his true character by his actions or lack thereof.
Ron definitely has a certain ethic to him that will be part of what he decides to do. But since he has won 10 terms as a congressman with the Constitution in tow, I would temper any criticism one might be tempted to wield.
Someone too quick to accuse of fraud might not have been elected 10 times in Congress. I.e. you can't look like you're paranoid, even if you are.
Fine, don't look like you're paranoid. Requesting a recount isn't paranoid. Simply point out the few discrepancies and request verification, that's all. It'll make him look like his has some fibre.
