Because like many Republicans, he wants to distinguish himself from the screw ups of all screw ups, Laura Bush's hubby.

They all use the word "freedom" but in different ways. Here's how Giuliani once defined freedom:
"freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do."

Ron Paul is the only one who wants to eliminate the government corruption. The others are a part of it.
World Federalist Association, a U.S. taxpayer-funded organization which says that American sovereignty will be gradually eroded until it is no longer an issue.

Ron Paul will not get my vote. His only support comes from people posting questions on Y! Answers. Trying to drum up support for him, here, won't work.

Among all candidates, Dr. Paul is now first in total donations from military personnel and veterans.

http://query.nictusa.com/pres/2007/Q2/C00430512/A_EMPLOYER_C00430512.html
He received more than 10 times as much in donations in the last week of June as he received in the first week of April.

Sportsbook.com rates both Paul and Romney at 8 to 1 odds which is approximately an 11 percent chance of becoming the next President.
http://205.134.167.60/lines/lines.cgi?device=browser&site=sbcom1&sport=754
Mitt Romney's campaign only had 35 percent more cash than Ron Paul after subtracting debts on 06/30/2007.

http://herndon1.sdrdc.com/cgi-bin/cancomsrs/?_08+P80003353
Romney's contributions from individuals dropped by a third from the first quarter to the second quarter.
Paul's contributions almost quadrupled from Q1 to Q2.
http://projects.washingtonpost.com/2008-presidential-candidates/?nid=roll_08campaign
Ron Paul's $2.4 million in fundraising after the second quarter placed him:
4th in total receipts to date
3rd in total current assets (ahead of former front-runner John McCain, and just $800,000 behind Mitt Romney)
Thus far, 47% of the contributions made to Ron Paul's campaign are donations of under $200 from individuals (John McCain's 17% is the second-highest percentage).
http://www.usaelectionpolls.com/2008/articles/ron-paul-small-donors-love-him.html
This is a telling statistic, as it highlights the fact that most other candidates rely heavily upon donations from corporate interests and political action committees (PACs) (i.e. moneyed, influence-seeking sources who can readily afford to contribute large sums). Since Congressman Paul has always voted against special favors and privileges for anyone, special interests know they have nothing to gain by stuffing Ron Paul's campaign coffers. As one member of my local Meetup group put it on a home-made sign, "Ron Paul is thin because he won't let special interests buy him lunch."
