« Fred Thompson teams up with McCain on trail | Main | '100 years' and the problem with empty pockets »

The unstoppable Ron Paul


Even as he seeks to grab control of the Republican Party state by state, Ron Paul is showing he has staying power on the Internet, the medium that helped launch his insurgent presidential campaign.


Paul announced this afternoon his new book, "The Revolution: A Manifesto," being released today, is No. 1 on Amazon.com's "Hot New Releases in Books" list.


Now will John McCain's campaign take the congressman's supporters seriously?

Ron Paul, to know him is to love him !!

All Men ARE CREATED EQUAL
GO RON PAUL
WE WANT THE ORIGINAL UNITED states OF AMERICA
RULED BY LAW

Looks like he has hit #1 now on Amazon's Bestseller list as well.

Insurgent as in Iraqi insurgent?
Does that also make Ron Paul a terrorist?
lol
I thought Maverick is the word you maybe looking for. Thanks for the heads up on the book, Ill check it out

Ron Paul is the answer. Now the population needs to be asking the questions. Surely they hate the prices going up. Surely they hate the spraying overhead that is happening. Surely they hate the war that we are in. Surely they hate the wars we are stirring up in Iran, Syria, Venezuela. Surely they hate our dollar plummeting. Surely they hate our freedoms eroding in the name of "terrorism" when our government paid NO attention to warnings that we would be hit and they have not closed our borders. When will the people ask the question? Ron Paul is the answer, when they finally ask the questions.

No, John McCain will not start to take Ron Paul seriously, because in order to take Ron Paul seriously, John "McCainFeingold" McCain would have to learn about the Constitution. John "100 Yrs. of Occupation" McCain would have to read Imperial Hubris. John "I don't really understand economics" McCain would have to read about Austrian Economics. John "Patriot Act" McCain would have to read Naomi Wolf. John "I don't stand for Republican Principles" McCain would have to read The Revolution: A Manifesto by Ron Paul.

John McCain will never take Ron Paul serously because John McCain doesn't understand any of the things that Ron Paul is talking about. We've had eight years of a president that doesn't read books, doesn't obey the constitution, doesn't believe in the people, the free market, or peace, do we really want four more years of bush league ignorance.

RON PAUL is trying so save AMERICA from the Special Interests Mafia (Trilateral Comm, CFR, Skull & Bones-take your pick). The dollar is crashing, genocide & quagmire in Iraq, US slum no go zones - FOR GOD SAKES WAKE UP AMERICA!!!
SAVE the COUNTRY!
RON PAUL - MANKINDs LAST HOPE
This is our last chance - it really is.....

The Ron Paul Revolution is here to stay. Our numbers are growing, not dwindling. We are not idle voters. We will take over the GOP on the local level and take our country back eventually.

I am convinced Dr. Pauls solutions are the only way to fix America. Please cut beyond the pundits on TV. Look at what this man believes. It is to complex for many who are politicians. He wants what is best for all people not just certain groups. Great book!

"Even as he seeks to grab control of the Republican Party state by state"

I don't know if thats accurate. I think it is Ron Paul's supporters that are trying to grab control of the GOP, not Ron Paul.

Will the press and the Republican party take him seriously is the question. Ron Paul gets thousands of supporters at events across the country even though the press convinced most people he dropped out. Help us elect an honest man who follows the solutions written into our constitution.

Unstoppable because real people back him not corporate goons or our elitest kleptocracy

All Ron Paul news All the Time:

6months ago i was a democrat and i heard about
Ron paul and changed.have been supporting
ever since.

Will McCain take us seriously? NO! He will wish he did come November though! I can see the headlines now "Ron Paul loyalist cost John McCain the presidency". Then once again we will be the scape goats. Well... back to building our empire.

Obama, Clinton, McCain all vote to fund the Iraq war.

Obama, Clinton, McCain all vote for deficit spending.

Obama, Clinton, McCain all vote against tax cuts.

Obama, Clinton, McCain are liberals. When will McCain come out of the closet?

One of the more interesting results of the internet revolution is a revised, sounder view of history, which is going to show us that a large number -- probably a majority -- of "great leaders" in history were psychopathic personalities.

Both McCain and Hillary are nuts. Amoral and filled with libido dominando. And yet the one guy who gets called "crazy" is the only sane person in Washington, as more and more people are realizing as the dollar collapses and war looms in Iran.

Paul is the only choice

At first I didn't take Ron Paul very seriously, but the man does have a lot of great ideas and is spot on about a lot of problems with this country.

This country really does need to get back to the roots it was founded on.

Dr. Ron Paul has a lot of answers to tough questions. Our foreign, domestic, fiscal, social, medical, educational, and tax policies are wildly out of control. It is time for a Libertarian sum Republican with answers not just spin.
McCain and the RNC establishement et al does not have a clue. But, that being said, HRC and BHO are socialists nee'communists in their hard left outlook. Sure John is liberal for a Republican, but the other two are so far left of center it is breathtaking. Keep educating and ignore the talking heads of the main stream media. The louder the shrill keenings from the Left, the more on target we are. Semper Fi

Ron Paul is a square peg trying to fit into a round hole, a man trying to impose economic and national self-interest into a morality of sacrifice and duty to others. Underneath the political surface is the philosophical foundation, which supports the whole edifice of politics, something libertarians invariably refuse to recognize. What Ron Paul wants to do has a name. It is called political individualism and it derives from egoistic roots, from self interest. Ron Paul wants to skirt around this issue but in the end, he will not succeed because he will not challenge the roots of the welfare state--the call to sacrifice and serve others.

Yo Dinan...

Don't you have a dictionary or thesaurus handy at work? The word you didn't bother to look for was "revolutionary" to describe Paul's campaign, not "insurgent."

There is nothing insurgent about restoring the Constitution to its rightful place in American Society or the personal liberties ripped off by our do-nothing Congress, Senate and President.

Remarkably, you did get "unstoppable" right, though. Congratulations. Considering the main stream media's performance of late, one outta two ain't bad.

Ron Paul stands for the things I believe in which none of the others do. Logical thinking, logical laws based on the Constitution. Almost like Shakespeare said "First thing we do is kill all the lawyers" translates into "First thing we do is get rid of the lobbyists". What a horrible mess our current approach of pandering to special interests and subsidies to everybody who contributes to a campaign fund.

We the people...

There are two political parties today, the first paty is called the Center for Foreign Relationists. The party's financial backing is the International Monitary Fund - World Bank and assorted corporate interests. The two candidates running within the CFR Political Party are Senators Bill Republican and Sue Democrat. They are running for the nomination of the CFR Party.

The other political party is called the Constitutionists, a miriad people are running for the nomination, which include Ron Paul, Mike Gravel, Bob Barr, Jesse Ventura, Dennis Kucinich among many others. The Constitutionists are funded by the People. Unfortunately, the Center For Foreign Relationists are able to easily corrupt many of the previous Constitutionists with the vast treasure of the World Bank, through the Federal Reserve, through the CFR prone Congress, through the Coporation kickbacks, perks, and the promise of "guaranteed election results" *wink* for continued servitude of the banking interest. Meanwhile, the Constitutionists, who serve the people, are powerless to influence the domination of the CFR Party.

These two political parties, the Center for Foreign Relationists and the Constitutionists are not designed by an individualist versus collectavist ideology. Rather they are separated by whom is to be served.

It was much easier 2000 years ago to simply flip over the money changer's tables and cast them out
Seems they snuck back in.

Time to grab a piece of the table and ready yourself.

Chin up, chest out...
