Ron Paul 2012 Just because Ron Paul isn't winning in 2008 doesn't mean I've given up hope.by The English Teacher

Most of us have heard of the Reagan Revolution. We know that Reagan was elected in 2000 and 2004 and changed a good portion of the way things were.
What you might not know is that Reagan ran for President in 1976 and lost. Although his campaign was dismissed and his ideas belittled that only meant that his time had not yet come.
We need to arrange the same for Ron Paul and we can start by reading this book (http://www.reagansrevolution.com/contents/words/). You can also start by ensuring that a Republican isn't elected in 2008. It should be obvious that if Jimmy Carter hadn't won in 1976, Reagan would never have gotten the nomination in 2000.
Similarly we need to ensure that Ron Paul can get the nomination in 2012. That means we can't have a Republican incumbent or Ron Paul won't have a chance to get the hearing he deserves.
I'm already hard at work on the "Don't Blame Me I Voted For Ron Paul" T-shirts. What are you going to do to get the revolution off the ground?
