Ron Paul Endorsements Keep Pouring In ...

Below the media radar, the Ron Paul RevolUTION continues to grow one individual at a time.

Below the media radar, buried in the blogosphere, the Ron Paul RevolUTION continues to grow one individual at a time. Here's a collection I compiled of endorsements Ron Paul received in one week alone (Jan. 26 - Feb. 2). Interestingly, that was the same week of which the National Project for Excellence in Journalism reports that "Ron Paul was a significant or primary figure in zero percent of the stories that we analyzed"


Lance Adams, The Political Inquirer: "Not to mention the possibility of winning, Dr. Paul has always stuck with the consistent message of gold, prosperity, liberty, and non-interventionism, policies that I advocate and that these United States were founded on."

Kevin Thompson, Here I Stand: "Ron Paul is the only man left standing for what is right. Folks like Huckabee and Romney say they are pro-life, but where were they when Ron Paul introduced the Sanctity of Life Act before the Congress? This bill would have recognized life beginning at conception, giving us more empowerment to protect the unborn. Where were all the other candidates waiting to sign their name in support? Other candidates speak at pro-life rallies and put on a good show. Ron Paul is the only man brave enough to take real action to effect real change. On February 5, I will cast my vote for Congressman Ron Paul. I pray that you will consider doing the same."

Marcus MacTeutates, Politics: "This country is on the brink of destruction, either to civil war or global control. Ron Paul is our best chance to avoid either."
http://chaosgone-politics.blogspot.com/2008/02/ron-paul-is-our-only-hope.html

Susan Eisenhower [Ike's granddaughter], Blogdial: "It is in this great tradition of crossover voters that I support Ron Paul's candidacy for president. If the Republican Party chooses Paul as its candidate, this lifelong Republican will work to get him elected and encourage him to seek strategic solutions to meet America's greatest challenges. To be successful, our president will need bipartisan help."

Joey, Pheistyblog: "Paul may not have a snowball's chance in this election, but he's the only candidate I could vote for and still live with myself in the morning. I cannot - and will not - vote the status quo. My vote is for freedom, so my vote is for Ron Paul."

Andrew Riley, All American Blogger: "I don't care who has the better poll numbers, and I don't care who they talk about the most on CNN. I care about the qualities of the candidate. There is no question in my mind that Ron Paul is truly the man who can bring respectability back to the oval office. And there is no question in my mind that Ron Paul has the integrity and honesty to act in the best interest of the constitution and the American people. It's been too long since we had a man like that in office. That, my friends, is why I am voting for Ron Paul."

Signa Veritae: "Ron Paul, quite possibly one of the most moral, pro-life, pro-us, and anti-evil choices out there. His stand on morality is great, and his stand on evil, is also great. Ron Paul's Website, says more than I can, and I ask that you check it out."
http://signaveritae.wordpress.com/2008/01/31/ron-paul/

Joel Salatin, fighting windmills: "I don't think I've ever felt as comfortable with a Presidential candidate as I do this year with Ron Paul. Generally the conservatives worship Wall Street, the military industrial complex, and American empire building around the world. The liberals worship government agencies, government solutions, and never saw a tax they didn't like or a baby worth saving. So where does a guy turn who wants small government, no subsidies, pro-life, no corporate welfare, and a hoe-your-own-garden military? Finally we have a candidate: Ron Paul.

GayWired: "Though Paul isn't known to be an avid supporter of gay rights, he opposes all federal efforts to redefine marriage, has said "don't ask, don't tell" fails because it doesn't take into account heterosexual behavior that is disruptive to service and has said he has no interest in interfering with two individuals in a social, sexual or religious sense.[...] In the end, it comes down to the issuesif Iraq is a sticking point, the vote goes to Ron Paul. On LGBT issues, Paul won't go out on a limb for our community, but as a Libertarian whose legacy will show he fought to stay out of American's personal lives, he won't be digging around for ways to limit our civil liberties."

Charlie Fugate, Good Sense: "Ron Paul is the candidate with the strongest record of defending the Constitution, strong fiscal policy and dedication to life. With all due respect to Mr. McCain, Mr. Romney and Mr. Huckabee, Ron Paul is identified most closely with my own positions (except the War in Iraq) than any of the other candidates. If the Paul campaign makes it to the convention, I'm riding this horse all the way."
http://goodsense-va.blogspot.com/2008/02/ron-paul.html

Ryan Evans, Pro Patria: "As a Veteran, I tend to be a hawkish Conservative, but I need to remind myself sometimes that it is much more of a personal feeling or opinion than it is the best policy for this country.[...] Ron Paul is smart. Really smart. While the other candidates are slick politicians, Paul seems to have the brains of the operation. His stance may be fiercely right, but is that really a bad thing? Logic should tell us that no matter how right he may lean, it will be tempered by congress so wouldn't that equalize to something of a happy medium?[...] Yes, I have set up my foxhole in the Ron Paul camp and am getting ready to start fighting again. The GOP may have me completely disillusioned, but I am still a Conservative and will fight for that."

Weird, Slacker Nation: "Think the deficit and economy is bad now? Vote for one of these preselected shills and watch the little remaining intrinsic value of the dollar continue to plummet. The Inflation Tax is a very real thing that is devaluing everything from our savings to our property. All we can do to fight it is vote for, and contribute to, the ONLY candidate that has promised to rein in the Federal government. Only Ron Paul has the fortitude to stand up to the "Big Spenders" and the voting record to back it up."

redhedinsted: "Hey party people! With Super Tuesday coming up next week, I thought I would send a shout out to my pick for president Ron Paul! If you dont know much about him, google or youtube him and you'll find a TON of stuff! So check him out if you don't have a candidate yet! And don't forget to vote!!! Peace! :)"

Fanny Ward, I live in Delaware County: "If you really want change in America, you"ll change your party affiliation to Republican and vote for Ron Paul in the April 22nd Primary. Hillary and Obama have no chance to become President. That leaves Ron Paul, a true consertative that is for All Americans.The MSM is against Paul because they and their handlers fear him. That is why Ron Paul is scarely mentioned on TV and the Newspapers."

Dale Dobberstein, LSJ Blogs: "To restore national confidence, a clear & concise vision & proposal is essential. It's imperative for motivation toward progress & success. Reducing governmental taxes & control results in greater individual wealth & freedom. Ron Paul is the only contestant who advocates this stance. He possesses strength & stamina required to confront such a daunting challenge & to achieve desired objectives."

Private, Rotten Neighbor: " I plan to vote for Ron Paul."
http://www.rottenneighbor.com/story.php?id=68374


Bert, College Republican Federation of Virginia: "I support Ron Paul because Iraq was a mistake and he had the foresight to warn against it. I support Ron Paul because as Goldwater said, "extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice." I support Ron Paul because he represents the best of conservative principles and because he is beholden to a true patriotism that embraces the ideas this country was founded upon, not the "successes" of the state."
