It's not a Republican thing. It's not a Democrat thing.

If nothing, else, most people would admit that Ron Paul is the most interesting candidate in the 2008 presidential race.

He openly rails against President Bush and the neocon agenda, even though he himself is a republican.
He did the same with President Clinton as Clinton used the troops in all kinds of illegal and unconstitutional ways.

Ron Paul goes far beyond political parties. He knows exactly what the problems in our country are, and does not care about left vs. right or republican vs. democrat. He wants our country to be brought back to the republic which it was founded as.

Supporting candidates who want to make everything republican vs. democrat is a complete waste of time. This phony left/right battle is part of the design to make us think we have a choice. TV instills this in us. Are you right or left? Which one of our pundits do you agree with? And they present only 2 choices in each issue, as if that's all there is.

This election is not about political parties. It's about turning the system upside down. No other candidate can do this. The rest of the republican field is pro-war. Most of the democrats are pro-war (Hillary and Obama both have said they would not take Iran off the table, Edwards voted for the Iraq war), and the ones that are not, such as Dennis Kucinich, want socialism for the U.S.

The choice is clear in 08. It's Ron Paul or we lose the country.

Can Ron Paul Really Win in 2008?

I keep hearing that "Ron Paul has no chance of winning the republican nomination or the 2008 election."

Nonsense I say!

Yes, it is an uphill battle.
Yes, the cards are stacked against him.

But I believe Ron Paul CAN win, and this is the best chance of saving the country we're going to have for a long time.

The difference between Ron Paul's campaign challenges and everyone else's, including Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and any of the other so-called mainstream candidates is this: the Ron Paul campaign team will have to work 10 times as hard as everyone else. He has a the mainstream media against him, the all-powerful CFR against him, the elite banking establishment against him, and the neocons within his party pulling out all stops in the attempt to give him the boot.

They also have us beat with funding: no matter how much Ron Paul raises, they will all raise more.

These are all obstacles- but they are NOT insurmountable.

We can counter the media with blogs like this one, and YouTube videos (Paul is currently the #1 candidate on YouTube- yay!)

We can hammer the neocons within the republican party as they try to pull their tricks.

We can make sure the Ron Paul Revolution is voting in every online poll.

We can continue to make calls into talk shows, no matter what party they claim to be for.

We can call and write to the mainstream media shows to ask for an interview with Ron Paul.

This is our chance to make change happen. This is defintitely NOT a partisan thing- it makes no difference what you used to be- "republican" or "democrat" are just labels. The important thing is to support Ron Paul in the primaries. Re-register as a republican, even if you were formerly a so-called "far left liberal". We need to counter the establishment, and I'm sorry to say but NONE of the mainstream candidates are going to do this- including Hillary, including Obama, including Edwards, and including every last republican in the field.

Ron Paul 2008!
