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

". I have constituents in my home district that I must serve. I cannot and will not let them down..."

Takes a lot of hutspa to say that to the people who have raised more money, and given more

time, to that mans campaigns than anyone in his district. The meetups should take over the

Constitution Party and find a nastionaly known candidate. Tancredo doing anything important.

You might want to take a look at Tancredo's record. With the exception of the illegal alien issue, there is very little difference between him or McCain. he voted for just about every big spending bill presented to Bush for signature. he voted for the Patriot Act. He voted for the Military Commissions Act. I'm pretty sure he voted for the real ID act as well.

Speaking for myself, there are a hell of a lot more important issues than illegal immigration. The size and scope of government in the lives of the American people being the most important. Tancredo and Hunter both fail on those issues IMHO.

Well illegal immigration and the war were tops for me, I wasn't really insisting on tancredo

but suggesting before these groups disband that they find another torch bearer. One of his

sons maybe. One of the boys did a lot of stump speeches didn't he ? Too much money and energy

expended to throw in the towel.

I've always been of the opinion that if something were done about the size of government and the powers it has seized from the people, issues such as illegal immigration and war would take care of themselves.

I believe you are correct that one of Paul's sons was doing speeches for him.

I guess the war is the only issue for me. If it's not Ron Paul, then the country is screwed, economically. Given we're screwed, the least we can do is let other countries be. To that end, I'll favor whatever candidate for pres is most likely to bring the troops home.

I think that's our moral obligation.
