Ron Paul's tea party for dollars
By Michael Levenson, Globe Staff
Ron Paul supporters marched today through the snow from the State House to Faneuil Hall, then smashed the one-day fund-raising record for a Republican presidential candidate.
As of 7 p.m., the supporters said they had raked in $4.3 million, surpassing the record $4.2 million total they raised on Nov. 5.
Most of the 33,000 donations were made over the Internet in what the supporters called a "money bomb" timed to coincide with the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. The last fund-raising blitz, which took in 40,000 donations, was timed to coincide with Guy Fawkes Day, which commemorates a British mercenary who tried unsuccessfully to kill King James I on Nov. 5, 1605.
"This basically shows that Ron Paul is a viable candidate," said Rachael McIntosh, a spokeswoman for what was dubbed Boston TeaParty07. "People are so engaged in this campaign because it’s coming from the grass-roots."
The supporters of the Texas congressman pick anniversaries of such historical events to highlight what they call the "Ron Paul Revolution."
Paul has stood out from the Republican field with his libertarian views and his opposition to the Iraq war. While he has remained in the single digits in polls nationally and in New Hampshire and Iowa, the fund-raising success has separated him from other lower-polling candidates and has enabled him to air TV ads in New Hampshire.
His supporters are unusually enthusiastic. Today, one waved a yellow "Don't Tread on Me" flag on Beacon Street in front of the State House while a dozen others clutched "Ron Paul" placards in the sleet.
Linda Poole, 53, a certified public accountant, wore a Santa hat with a Ron Paul sticker on the fur brim. She came to the rally from her home in Macon, Ga., she said.
"I've been supporting Ron Paul since May and following him since 2005," Poole said. If the "founding fathers" were alive today, she said, "Ron Paul is the only person they would vote for."
McIntosh said 400 supporters later marched to Faneuil Hall, where about 700 people listened to speeches by Rand Paul, the candidate's son, Carla Howell, a libertarian who ran unsuccessfully for Massachusetts governor in 2002, and others.
Supporters also re-enacted the dumping of tea in Boston Harbor, by tossing banners that read "tyranny" and "no taxation without representation" into boxes that were placed in front of an image of the harbor.
"They're trying to get the attention of the mainstream media, almost like a child that is acting up, trying go get the attention of their parent," McIntosh said.

After the first money bomb, I thought that his supporters would be tapped out. How wrong I was. He obviously has much more support than the media leads people to believe.

Today's money bomb just topped the three million dollar mark, with more than 9 hours remaining....
Wow, I didn't realize how much support he had. He is starting to appear to be the best choice for the Republican Party.
Go Ron Paul! This man is our best hope for restoring our freedoms under the constitution and bringing our troops home. Ron Paul in 2008!
Keep it rolling in. It's still very early.
A newbie to the campaign. I'm all for Ron Paul! Just made my donation! I will help spread the word about this good man!
GO RON PAUL!!! Let's see how the Main Stream Media downplays this event!!!!
GO RON PAUL!!! Let's see how the Main Stream Media downplays this event!!!!
We're doing it again, and at a faster rate and larger than many ever thought. The press has no idea what is going on because they have never seen anything like this.
We're helping them understand.
Don't worry press, you'll have more oportunities to see the Ron paul freedom movement raise record money, get out the vote, and win.
Great job everyone! Keep up the good work!

This is great. I hope the money continues to roll in.
Let's start thinking about organizing the next money bomb to keep the funds rolling in. We could all put some money in Ron's stocking on Christmas Day.
Donated $300. I'm very proud of my fellow patriots.
I'm surprised they haven't spun the Tea Party date the way the have the Fifth of November.
"This time, they're seizing on the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party when terrorists illegally destroyed property belonging to law-abiding loyal colonists. We can probably expect the same from these lunatic Paultards. But more importantly, we have new information about Britney's panties. Bob?"
The most important thing is to tell your parents, No matter what age you are, I am 33 and my parents never had heard of RON PAUL, tell your parents, tell your grandparents, Let Ron Paul FIX AMERICA !!!!
Ron Paul is a breath of fresh air in the sewer of politics.
Call your friends and family. This is a special event and a real crisis in our nation's history. WE NEED RON PAUL'S MESSAGE TO SAVE THIS COUNTRY FOR THE NEXT GENERATION.
Ron Paul the only hope for American Republic. Vote in Dr Ron Paul for president 2008 so together We can rebuild economic system based on mathematically perfected economic government policy so all We the People can benefit. Perfected Economy eliminates inflation tax for good. Visit www.perfecteconomy.com & learn how it can be done.

Go Ron Paul! You are Awesome!
Now, in case anyone is concerned that Ron might not be perfect, let me ask this. Do you really really want 4 or 8 more years of the same we have had. Rising prices of everything, not just gas and heating fuel and electricity (isnt that enough??) but everything has gone up. Check out the price of building materials, food, etc.
Yesturday, I was an elderly lady put $6 worth of gas in her car. Here in CT, that is 2 gallons. This wont get her far. Why did she do this? Guess...
Yes, it is all she can afford. That is her gas money for the week! Which means she will have to stay home, ALONE most of the time. All this while the Saudi's are building Islands in the ocean. (check out what their doing in Dubai).
In the past, weve had energy crisis. Once over, nothing was done about our foreign dependance on energy. Will Hillary or Rudy address these issues? You can bet they wont. More of the same. Even worse, with Hilary, worse.
If the people cant see what is happening now, I fear they wont see until it is too late and we are back in a Great Depression once again. Or worse, owned by others.
I donated $100.00 -Waived signs on the streets for 2 hours. I believe in Ron Paul and committed to help restore what our founding fathers fight so hard for.
I feel stupid. I'm one of the people who though Ron Paul was fringe (because the media told me so) and I'm one of the people who thought Paul really did have much support (because the media told me so). Now that it's pretty obvious he will raise more money than ANY other candidate, I've spent the last 2 hours reading his speeches and articles and I can't stop. I don't think I ever agreed with a politician on so many things as I do with Ron Paul. Now that I understand why everyone has been enthusiastic about his run, I have an uneasy feeling about why the media has done so much to keep him from being viewed as a serious candidate. Do I dare ask if they're doing it on purpose?

RON PAUL WILL SAVE US!
Ron Paul supporters have affirmed my faith and pride in the American people. The Constitution and Bill of Rights are ours to restore and protect! The congress and the president have failed utterly in this-- their primary obligation and responsibility.
My wife and myself will cast our votes for Ron Paul in the Michigan primary and in November!
As the good doctor says, "Liberty brings us together."
God Bless and Happy Holidays.
The next money bomb should be on the second of January, a day before Iowa for max pub impact and be called: Tea for two.
Ron Paul, our last hope. The herd is waking up. The "drunk" politicians, "coked up" international bankers and the "codependent" media are trembling in their deception.
Today we are making history and fighting for democracy!!!
God bless America!!!!
Ron Paul 2008!!!!
Donate today and help make history!!!!
I have never been so involved in a political movement. My wife and I just ordered 50 of the 12 pg. Ron Paul Book and are going door to door just after the New Year.
KEEP IT UP FRIENDS! DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU WE CAN'T WIN!
WE CAN. WE ARE AMERICA. NOT THE MEDIA, NOT THE PARTY CHIEFS AND NOT THE STATUS QUO!
WE ARE AMERICA!

WE CAN. WE ARE AMERICA. NOT THE MEDIA, NOT THE PARTY CHIEFS AND NOT THE STATUS QUO!
WE ARE AMERICA!
We can't take four more years of eroded liberty and over taxation while our money becomes worthless and our young men die to patch together a country where the inhabitants blow themselves to bits daily over religious disputes of no importance to us whatsoever. Every error at issue in our national conduct is one which our forefathers had warned against, yet until Ron Paul arose in the public arena nobody seemed to care. Come now has the time where every American can and should step boldly forward to declare “I’m mad as hell about the condition of our once fair land and Ron and I aren’t going to take it anymore”.
Ron Paul is the man to save our country from another 4 years of despair.
Vote Ron Paul in 2008!
When Dr. Paul speaks about any political issue, he has an unwavering sincerity backed by a consistent voting record. The money bombs work because the salesman and the product have appeal. Will this be enough to win over the voters on election day? I hope so because sooner is better, but the answer is a question: which election day? Goldwater's defeat begot Reagan, whose compromise with the Tudor descendents demonstrated a truth not to be repeated by a Paulian, personnel is policy.
So, forget the inside baseball politics, just close the sale based on issues, and the let the demos find the truth. 3rd way politics, compassionate conservatism, is inherently unstable. The Athenians taught us at least this much about "democracy", and it is no less true today. If one governs by expedients and not principles, the polis rebels.
Ron Paul and his adherents sell principles, not loan forgiveness.
I donated $200 this morning, and I'll be donating another $200 this evening. And I have never donated or supported a candidate before!
What price freedom?
SEE this amazing portrait of Ron Paul: www.acmwallet.com/ronpaul
You gotta love RON PAUL.....RON PAUL has so much more support than any of
the other fringe candidates. They are all LOSERS!!!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
PEOPLE........The democrats and republicans are afraid of RON PAUL and will
be pooping in their diapers when they see the amount of money Ron will be
getting by the end of the day. All the other IDIOT GLOBALIST wish they had this
much SUPPORT!!!!!!!!
We are the faces of freedom, our forefathers would be proud to see our fight for liberty. "Dont Tread on Me!" Go Ron Paul Go!!!!
Today I have been talking to people about Ron Paul, distributing campaign info, and now am heading to a frozen lake to stomp RON PAUL into the lake as a billboard.
Let's go America, restore liberty!
Ron Paul for President 2008:
Ron Paul Is the only candidate on either side for LIBERTY, OUR CONSTITUTION, AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, I like that, how about you?
December 15, 2007 |
Pay attention, all you politicians and campaign managers who yearn to discover the secret to building Paulian-level support (yes, I predict a future adjective in the making). I will share the secret with you, but first the bad news: You may as well forget it because it can't be done.
Let me say that again. It can't be done. It can't be created or made to happen. It only happens spontaneously when a certain precondition exists.
What's the precondition, you ask? That's the "secret".
Tell everyone about Ron Paul. Grassroots campaigning works!
I have told many people about him and the majority of them researched him and told me later they were not only voting for him, but spreading the word to their friends and family.
Get out the good news about Ron Paul!
Am I really supposed to give *any* credibility to a "news" organization that publicly posts an article with *three* blatant spelling errors??
mercenary who tried unsuccesfully
who ran unsuccesfully
234th aniversary
Isn't this article a great example of why Ron Paul wants to eliminate the *federal* Department of Education?
This article would have earned a grade of "F" in my middle school.
I like the way this man can rally supporters
Colorado Loves Ron Paul!!! I was in Denver out on our Capitol taday with a homemade sign people are really starting to wake up! Going out again everyone, get YOUR SIGNS out and show your support. God Bless Ron Paul.
What is going on? These people just beat Romneys old record AGAIN? Damn, Ron Paul is the man! Doesn't this mean he's outraised every other republican candidate (before Romney writes himself another check anyway)?
RON PAUL ROCKS HIS REVOLUTION HAS REACHED DELAWARE IN FULL FORCE!!! INSHALLAH THIS WEEK I WILL BE HOLDING A HUGE RON PAUL rEVOlution SIGN ON MAIN STREET IN MY TOWN I SUGGEST U DO THE SAME!!!
I just donated 50 dollars. I am latino.
ron paul 08
I just gave my donation for Ron Paul. If you believe in freedom and the values that this Country was founded on --- then you should take the time to learn more about Ron Paul. Watch the videos, read what he has to say about the issues, LOOK AT HIS VOTING RECORD IN CONGRESS! He's the real deal.
Just donated $100.00 and will do it again for Dr. Paul. We are truly at an historic crossroads in " our" country. If there is truly any chance whatsoever of saving our constitutional republic, then we must elect Ron Paul as President no ifs,ands or buts and it must be now. Otherwise, it will be the end of our country and the world as we know it. This is not the rantings of a "conspiracy theorist" or of a paranoid individual who is part of the lunatic fringe. This is based on history and an understanding of the rise and fall of great civilizations. No Ron Paul, we will surely be next on that historic list. Just remember, George W. Bush and essentially every other current politician in office view the most important document in our countries history ( the Supreme Law of the Land ) as "just a piece of paper." Rescue us!
$42.0 from me
over 3.4 million since i donated at 12:42am
Well, I gave my $100. I just hate the wasteful spending we see in the government today. I've never given to any politicians before, but Paul strikes me as the only worthwhile candidate.
My wife and I are pulling for you, Dr. Paul!
Im all in $2300.00 is A vary small price to pay freedom. I also have a 4' by 8' ron paul sign on my truck people love it. Were going to win if we play hard like the Dr.p posted by Jim
Ron Paul is not just the "Hope For America", he is also the "Hope For World Peace".
"A nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one!" -- Alexander Hamilton
The only politician with true honesty, integrity, and an understanding of the principles of liberty & peace- in my lifetime. The world is praying for Dr. Ron Paul.
Count me in, too! Ron Paul all the way or we will all be sorry!
I gave to Ronnie, I figure he's heading for 7 million today plus 1.5 tomorrow. GO RON PAUL. This thing is looking more real everyday. I wish we had a blimp in every state!
Contact your local media with something like this:
"Hi,
Ron Paul presidential supporters have already raised 3.7 million dollars as of 3:00 MT, with a goal to 10 million by 12:00 tonight. This is in addition to the record breaking 4.3 million we raised on November 5th. National media keep ignoring Dr. Paul but what is happening is truely incredible. No one before has ever raised these amounts of money in a day. I hope you'll agree it's worth a few seconds of air time to mention this extrordinary event and what I could mean for Dr. Paul's campaign.
Thanks,"
Ron Paul's platform is Constitutionalist, not libertarian.
"Inasmuch as the Constitution was never signed, nor agreed to, by anybody, as a contract, and therefore never bound anybody, and is now binding upon nobody; and is, moreover, such an one as no people can ever hereafter be expected to consent to, except as they may be forced to do so at the point of the bayonet, it is perhaps of no importance what its true legal meaning, as a contract, is. Nevertheless, the writer thinks it proper to say that, in his opinion, the Constitution is no such instrument as it has generally been assumed to be; but that by false interpretations, and naked usurpations, the government has been made in practice a very widely, and almost wholly, different thing from what the Constitution itself purports to authorize. He has heretofore written much, and could write much more, to prove that such is the truth. But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain --- that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist." -- Lysander Spooner
We still have a chance!!

I changed from Democrat to Republican so that I can vote for him. I had never really heard of him before, but what a refreshing change. Everyone else really has gotten so far away from the Constitution.
CONTACT YOUR LOCAL NEWS STATION WITH THIS STORY, ASK THEM TO REPORT ON IT. IT'S BIG NEWS!
The 1952 Republican Platform Reaches From The Past To Condemn the Bush Administration
Over the years, the Republican Party has been gradually transformed into a Party that promotes a Neo-Conservative Agenda that is far removed from not only the historic stance of the Republican Party, but also from the historic stance of this Constitutional Republic.
These Neo-Cons are the people that have been in charge of the leadership of this government and the Republican Party for the last seven years.
So, to understand how much the Republican Party has been distorted by these professional political agents of this Leftist Philosophy you need not go any further than the Republican Platform of 1952 for comparison. I have made a very few minor changes in the platform, such as replacing the word “democrat” with the “republican” and the word “Korea” with the word “Iraq” to stress the point that there has been a drastic change in the Republican Party to the point that it is no longer recognizable.
IT IS TIME TO NOT ONLY TAKE BACK THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, BUT AMERICA AND RESTORE LIBERTY TO THIS LAND, FREEDOM TO ITS PEOPLE!
Here is an excerpt from the 1952 Republican Party Platform.
“We maintain that man was not born to be ruled, but that he consented to be governed; and that the reasons that moved him thereto are few and simple. He has voluntarily submitted to government because, only by the establishment of just laws, and the power to enforce those laws, can an orderly life be maintained, full and equal opportunity for all be established, and the blessings of liberty be perpetuated.
We hold that government, and those entrusted with government, should set a high example of honesty, of justice, and unselfish devotion to the public good; that they should labor to maintain tranquility at home and peace and friendship with all the nations of the earth.
We assert that during the last twenty years, leaders of the Government of the United States under successive “Republican” Administrations, and especially under this present Administration, have failed to perform these several basic duties; but, on the contrary, that they have evaded them, flouted them, and by a long succession of vicious acts, so undermined the foundations of our Republic as to threaten its existence.
We charge that they have arrogantly deprived our citizens of precious liberties by seizing powers never granted.
We charge that they work unceasingly to achieve their goal of National Socialism.
We charge that they have disrupted internal tranquility by fostering class strife for venal political purposes.
We charge that they have choked opportunity and hampered progress by unnecessary and crushing taxation.
They claim prosperity but the appearance of economic health is created by war expenditures, waste and extravagance, planned emergencies, and war crises. They have debauched our money by cutting in half the purchasing power of our dollar.
We charge that they have weakened local self-government, which is the cornerstone of the freedom of men.
We charge that they have shielded traitors to the Nation in high places, and that they have created enemies abroad where we should have friends.
We charge that they have violated our liberties by turning loose upon the country a swarm of arrogant bureaucrats and their agents who meddle intolerably in the lives and occupations of our citizens.
We charge that there has been corruption in high places, and that examples of dishonesty and dishonor have shamed the moral standards of the American people.
We charge that they have plunged us into war in “Iraq” without the consent of our citizens through their authorized representatives in the Congress, and have carried on that war without will to victory.”
Those words are the ultimate condemnation of a government that has lost it moral authority to govern this nation or even promote itself as the protector of this people. Those words shout out for a justice that has long been lost on this President and his Administration. The words of the 1952 Republican Platform are the words of a revolution long over due in this country, these are the words that cry out for a restoration of the Constitutional Republic. Those words are breaching the last few decades to expose those who have, through their actions, their words and their agenda committed treason against the Constitution, against the People and our Liberty.
BOSTON, HEAR THE CRY OF LIBERTY ONCE AGAIN....JOIN THE REVOLUTION
$3,850,429 as of 5:20 EST.
I chipped in $500 and my wife did the same. Dr. Paul's message is worth all that and more!
Finally real news, now all we need is real coverage.
We the people and this campaign are making history, yet the media insists on filling the air waves and the press with useless information.
Thank God for the Internet. Real freedom of the press.
Live out loud!!!!
Tim simmons
I thought I would vote for Clinton or Obama, but I re-registered Republican to vote for Dr. Paul. I love Dr. Paul. He is a clear voice of reason. He says it like it is and is not beholden to corporate interests. He is honest and I trust him. Go RON PAUL! Go! Go! Go! I donated $325 -- a small price to pay for liberty and getting our country back.
15M lets make it 16M or More by MIdnight!!!
by the way check out inforwars.com to hear the alex jones show live covarage of the Ron Paul Tea Party......
Way to go! Let's show them all that America is STILL the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Important facts.
He has never voted to raise taxes.
He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
He has never taken a government-paid junket.
He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.
He voted against the Patriot Act.
He voted against the Iraq war.
Ron Paul's record:
Restrict abortion. Restrict immigration. Gee, I'm glad he's pro-freedom or imagine what else he'd be pushing.
If anyone wants to read something really scary go to the Council on Foreign Relations website and read Mike Huckabee's plan. He is a Neo-Con's wet dream come true. If Huckabee is ever elected this country will be totally wrecked by the policies he advocates. I hope this country has much better sense than to ever allow such a man as Huckabee to get his hands on power.
I very much like Ron Paul's message, and I hope that he does become our next president.
I just want to make sure in your talking points, or passionate reiteration of the issues, that you are accurate.
There is a democrat (albeit fringe) that believes in the constitution. Remember, Dennis Kucinich carries a copy of the constitution in his pocket. Kucinich. Kucinich is also someone Ron Paul has worked with on many occasions as he told a supporter once.
Keep the message going, keep the momentum going, but please keep the rhetoic accurate.
Ron Paul!!! Let's make governemnt accountable to We The People

My wife and I just donated $20. We don't have much but believe wholeheartedly that our nation is at a crossroads where we must decide between being the great free country of America or start to be like every other corrupted government in the world. At this point the government has so much power what is to keep us from going down the road Pakistan has just gone down -- no more power hungry corruption!. We must save our nation for the sake of our children. $30,000 in national debt for every American, a police state that controls the minute details of our lives... give us liberty! Give us Ron Paul in 2008!
Today's money bomb seems to be going well. I hope this will put the positions of Dr. Ron Paul in front of the masses and grow his support. Dr. Paul has cured the political apathy of many and our country needs him.
$100 from me. It's the price of 2 video games or 5 music cds. Think of it as an investment in our future.
NEW RON PAUL 2008 POSTER: www.acmwallet.com/ronpaul
We are excited to see people energized about politics again!
I actually changed my political affiliation for this guy, I hope he wins
May America wake up to it's last chance to obtain its greatness. This can only be achieved by breaking so called treaties(entanglements), which by design destroy our sovereignty. Ron Paul holds no allegience to these meddlers and is the only hope to restore our freedoms and liberties which have been Stolen. The restoration of this great Nation is a cause to rally all the true PATRIOTS, and not the neocons who only work toward the increase of their net worth. The powers that be are afraid of Americans waking up to see what has been commited upon them in the name of protection. Namely the dismanteling of the Constitution and the deflation of the dollar. I pray that we will have a chance at greatness, a chance to elect a man that would steer us back to a constitutional republic. I fear that if we continue down the path we are on now we will lose everything we hold of value. WAKE UP AMERICA VOTE FOR HOPE! REGISTER REPUBLICAN AND ATTEND THE PRIMARY VOTE RON PAUL. Today we have a choice that we haven't had in a long time...... you don't have to choose between the lesser of two evils, denounce evil VOTE RON PAUL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks DR Paul, this is why I love this country........Media Pro
I'm posting this comment in hopes that the media will take some notice and give this man credit.
Thank you Ron Paul, we are supporting you!
This money is our way of saying
" Bring our troops home now!"
This is our last chance to save the Republic. I'd rather spend Federal Reserve Notes now, than spend 5.56 ammo, later. FREEDOM
This is our last chance to save the Republic. I'd rather spend Federal Reserve Notes now, than spend 5.56 ammo, later. FREEDOM

My wife and I donated this morning and we are going to donate again. I am so proud of all of you guys and gals! I am Paramotor Pilot in Albuquerque, New Mexico and I am going to put Ron Paul for President on the 30 foot wing in 24" letters and fly it over the city. Gosh, the Tea Party Fund Raiser is a smash! Thank God, take that ABC, NBC, and CBS! Go Ron!
I knew Ron Paul in the mid 70's as a physician. I had the honor of voting for him the first time he ran for Congress and my father RIP voted for him every time he ran for reelection. Dr. Paul is an honorable and steadfast carrier of the American standard of Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness and an intelligent non interventionist foreign policy that will not leave America too broke to defend herself. I am deeply moved by the support shown to Dr. Paul since his message has finally received the attention it deserves. It is a shame that it took the ruinous Presidency of George Bush to give him the opportunity.

Ron Paul is the only decent man with integrity which has been absent in politics for the past 30 years - why has the average American not given 2 hoots? Because we've been forced to settle with NO choice (the lesser of evils is NOT a choice at all) and no viable options.
Ron Paul can change America into something we can be proud of once again! let us take back this great Nation - the PEOPLE!!!
I've heard and seen a lot of signs saying Ron Paul removed my appathy, well, resident Bush did that for me. His blatant disrespect for our constitution and the people of this great country dug under my skin and grew cancerous... I started paying attention. Thank the heavens above for Dr. Ron Paul and his courageous stance that he has taken to the door of big government, big business and the corrupt and greed that blatantly runs rampant and has tanked our economy. Words can't say enough. My eyes swell with pride to know there are tens- if not hundreds of thousands of people that feel the same way. That number is now going to grow, exponentially. Ron Paul has made me proud to be an American again! Thank you, Dr. Paul and all of his grassroots supporters!

Thank the heavens above for Dr. Ron Paul and his courageous stance that he has taken to the door of big government, big business and the corrupt and greed that blatantly runs rampant and has tanked our economy. Words can't say enough. My eyes swell with pride to know there are tens- if not hundreds of thousands of people that feel the same way. That number is now going to grow, exponentially. Ron Paul has made me proud to be an American again! Thank you, Dr. Paul and all of his grassroots supporters!
Also, this guy knows MONEY!!
RP Took Berneke (i don't care if i spelled his name wrong) to SKOOOLLL.
Check it out on Youtube. RP is the ONLY person I'd donated to.
Usually its just picking the best one from the worst.
RP doesn't have supporters, he ha FANS. That is the difference
If you are new to Ron Paul and wonder what the fuss is about here is a 4 part speech at U of M; it is worth your 30 minutes - listen and then make your decision if this is a person worthy of your time attention

Let's get this kind of enthusiasm in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania!
God Bless the People of America!
Wow, I can't believe they are raising this much money! Where is his support coming from? He must have a lot of supporters to raise this much. For some reason, I haven't heard much mentioned about Paul on any of the networks or cable news channels.

I wasn't able to make it to the Tea Party this weekend due to bad weather. So, I made a sign that said "Ron Paul is making history today" and went to the closest intersection. This was a little scary at first, but I thought people in my area needed to know the truth. At first I was met with blank stares. But, after that first person gave me a thumbs up I was on a new high. They just kept coming, people yelling out the windows "RON PAUL." It was addictive to say the least. The next thing I knew I'd been standing out there for over 3 hours. It was the least I could do for Ron Paul. I'm planning on doing it again. Maybe next time dressed like Santa or a founding father. He received the most signatures for the primary ballot here in Virginia. Let's show everyone the message of freedom! Vote Ron Paul!
Our Political Movement called Action For Justice (AFJ/AXJ) support Dr. Ron Paul and have passed the message of peace on around the world. He is first and foremost a pro-life Medical Doctor. Second he is a Patriot. Third his platform is based on the basics, the United States Constitution and its guarantees for Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happy which have apparently been curtailed by the current Administration. www.action4justice.com
I've never put so much effort into a campaign...this one is a complete and humbling honor. Thank you Dr. Paul for "Curing my apathy!!!!!" I'm in for the long haul...and after seeing him in person in Des Moines, Iowa, 7 hours from my home, HE IS TOO...he made that perfectly clear.......
EVERYONE CONTRIBUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I always said I could vote for a Republican if only they would act like one. Finally somebody who acts like a conservative Republican. The first one I've seen since I could vote (in the 70s.
I donated $100 on November 5th, I donated $100 today, and I plan to donate another $100 on the next money bomb day, whatever that is.
A small price to pay to get our country back. Haven't felt this optimistic in years.
Go RP...!
Take a chance on Liberty!

Ron Paul stands for what this country once stood for. Dr. Paul is the most sincere, direct and honest candidate in the race. Ron Paul is the only candidate that has opposed the illegitimate war in Iraq from day one. Ron Paul wants to restore our rights, yours and mine, by reversing the unconstitutional patriot act. Ron Paul supports the individual liberty of all men and women. He is against this path towards a police state, which America is headed in. He wants to decriminalize marijuana so as to stop the flow of non-dangerous criminals to prison as well as reduce the bureaucracy it takes to fight the losing drug war. Bring home the troops, close the foreign military bases, stop all the foreign lobbies and aid, stop the federal reserve from taking your money and inflating the dollar 3%-10% every year! VOTE FREEDOM, VOTE PEACE, VOTE LIBERTY AND JUSTICE, VOTE TO RESTORE AMERICA! VOTE TO PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS AND MINE........VOTE RON PAUL IN 2008! See for yourself at www.ronpaul2008.com Or google "Ron Paul". Watch his speeches on youtube as well. Do not be a single issue voter this time. Vote on the BIG PICTURE!! This time it is for freedom and the fate of our nation. Throw of this yoke of tyranny. Hillary is PRO-WAR and PRO-Aggression, Obama already said he would strike Iran and Pakistan, Giuliani is an insane criminal, we must look at the issues and vote for the ones that matter most. Whether you are a homosexual, conservative, democrat, liberal, pot-head, cab driver, carpenter, janitor, whatever........he is for your rights! Ron Paul wants to limit the extent of the powers of the federal government. Lets decentralize this leviathon monster, this 800 pound gorilla in our country, lets decentralize the federal government and restore the power to the individual states. THat is what this nation was founded on. We are a republic not an empire. Join the fight for freedom today. Bring hope to America!
The answer to 1984 is 1776!
Finally a Man of principle and honor running for president. I am ready to stand up and give this all I got. I will give all of my money and when I max out I will give to the blimp or what ever. When I get home I am mailing DVD's to all of my neighbors so they will know about this revolutions. I give you the one finger salute King George
I've donated over $500, plus another $150+ for campaign materials. I suggest all to join local meet-up groups from your area. They can be found by linking from Ron Paul's web site. Keep up the good work. We need an honest and principled president - for a change.
next is the email bomb to all major media, email them every day every way. email their major advertisers and get the word out. we must get our country back. remember the government works for us! not the other way around.
He is opposed to all trade treaties with Mexico and Canada because he thinks they're preludes to a North American Union run by the Illuminati.
He wants to get out of the UN because he believes it is the secret world government, run by the Illuminati.
He is opposed to even TALKING to the warring parties in Somalia, because he feels that the US might taint the supreme freedom the somalis enjoy. According to Ron Paul, Somalia is a shining success story and a role model for the USA.
Ron Paul wants to abolish the federal reserve, and return to the gold standard. Not incidentally, Ron Paul runs a gold trading company.
Ron Paul is against net neutrality, ie in favor of letting ISP's charge extra for not throttling user bandwidth.
Ron Paul is anti-environmentalist. He's opposed to doing anything about global warming, and is in favor of e.g. letting oil companies drill wherever they want.
Ron Paul wants to disband all federal science and oversight organizations, e.g. NASA, FDA, and the EPA.
Ron Paul wants to slash the US army to the bare minimum needed to protect the US mainland from invasion, and abandon all bases abroad.
In short, Ron Paul is a loon. That this hasn't been covered in mainstream media is because he's old and seen as a lovable crank with no shot at the presidency.
So why are his supporters so enthusiastic? Because he's got the backing of two wealthy and influential movements: the white supremacist movement, and the conspiracy theorist movement. Those are his powerbase, not libertarians.
Kudos to the RP people for generating so many favorable comments.
I heard *they* want to make that NAFTA superhighway actually loop around the entire world with really nice rest stops. And only Illuminati members will be able to drive on it.
Maybe Dr. Paul will help us all out and run as an independent.
