Message from Ron

Whoa! What a year this has been. And what achievements we have had. If I may quote Trotsky of all people, this Revolution is permanent. It will not end at the Republican convention. It will not end in November. It will not end until we have won the great battle on which we have embarked. Not because of me, but because of you. Millions of Americans -- and friends in many other countries -- have dedicated themselves to the principles of liberty: to free enterprise, limited government, sound money, no income tax, and peace. We will not falter so long as there is one restriction on our persons, our property, our civil liberties. How much I owe you. I can never possibly repay your generous donations, hard work, whole-hearted dedication and love of freedom. How blessed I am to be associated with you. Carol, of course, sends her love as well.

Let me tell you my thoughts. With Romney gone, the chances of a brokered convention are nearly zero. But that does not affect my determination to fight on, in every caucus and primary remaining, and at the convention for our ideas, with just as many delegates as I can get. But with so many primaries and caucuses now over, we do not now need so big a national campaign staff, and so I am making it leaner and tighter. Of course, I am committed to fighting for our ideas within the Republican party, so there will be no third party run. I do not denigrate third parties -- just the opposite, and I have long worked to remove the ballot-access restrictions on them. But I am a Republican, and I will remain a Republican.

I also have another priority. I have constituents in my home district that I must serve. I cannot and will not let them down. And I have another battle I must face here as well. If I were to lose the primary for my congressional seat, all our opponents would react with glee, and pretend it was a rejection of our ideas. I cannot and will not let that happen.

In the presidential race and the congressional race, I need your support, as always. And I have plans to continue fighting for our ideas in politics and education that I will share with you when I can, for I will need you at my side. In the meantime, onward and upward! The neocons, the warmongers, the socialists, the advocates of inflation will be hearing much from you and me.

Sincerely,

Ron

RP is not a senator. He represents his district (not Israel or free tradism or globalism or socialism) in the US congress. I wish there were more representatives like him.

ok thx.

I'm just glad I'm getting my money's worth.

Didn't spend a dime.

As for those who did, I bet they don't share your views, especially those who moved to other states to fight for the cause that Paul now abandons.

Yeah, when your supporters care more about the movement than the guy who claims to be the big proponent, its probably time to just admit the dude was a fraud (about making a run for office) and cut your losses.

Looks to me alot like another official selling out his supporters for his personal gain, but I am on a koolaid free diet...have been for years.

As I grew up, in a communist-controlled state, one favorite distraction was for people to buy novels or watch movies where 'the good communist', all by himself, was successfully defeating the bad and corrupt mid-level activists. All the communist crimes and outrages were exposed in disgusting details but, it the end, it was made clear that 'the party' was not responsible for any. It was just the bad people who happened to make up the party leadership, and membership and 'the good communist theory' made people more hopeful that some incremental change was possible.

In the end, it all just collapsed.

Oh, the authors of these works of fiction were held in high regard by the masses as some courageous dissidents but everyone loved to ignore the daily songs and poems of praise to the communist leadership and to communism they were producing, and all was forgotten when the 900-page opus magnum was published by one of them, every 4-5 years or so. On balance, these people were helping the system by giving the masses the illusion that the system would tolerate the expression of dissident views as a rule rather than a carefully-controlled series of exceptions.

just as ron paul is speaking out about americans getting their country back he's also speaking out about conservative republicans getting their party back.

he has overcome significant odds to get this far. in fact i think the odds are far greater than the average individual of average means increasing their net worth by $1,000,000 within the next year, something i suggest they tackle to understand the magnitude of such hurdles. besides how do you get dr. paul in the white house in accordance with his aspirations when america appears not ready for his message. the odds increase exponentially when you toss in other gate keepers of the white house such as military industry complex and other groups that go bump in the night. the one thing you can do is to get involved and educated so that you can get to participate in what your country should be.
