NO and I would like his supporters to indicate which party they would have supported if they choose to write him in as a candidate, because he will NOT be on any ticket.
That way we will know which party he hurt the most.

Ron Paul can't run a grocery store, much less the executive branch.

Yes,
And I am not a Ron Paul supporter (I'm a centrist and he's most effective as a legislator, IMHO). I think that it is healthy to revisit 'settled' questions from time to time.
What's wrong with at least talking about drug decriminalization, and the abolition of the federal income tax and the role of gov't in international affairs?

Not that I'm voting for him, but I'm a little surprised he's not doing better. He is basically the only Republican candidate who wants out of Iraq, which is a major issue in this campaign.
He's probably pulling in 1-2% of the vote, but I'm sure that even amongst Republicans, you could find more than 1-2% that want out of Iraq. You would think he could draw more support from that position alone, since he is the only one advocating it.

Yes, as with Gravel, Paul's lunacy is refreshing - in very, very small doses. Much smaller than we get here at Y!A...

Screeching answers (that mostly consist of saying "Read the constitution and nothing more) and flapping his arms around is not refreshing, it is disturbing. and the fact he does not distance himself from the "truther sects" or the white supremacists groups that are backing him truly makes him disturbing.

Paul is well "scripted" and is saying what the people want to hear but that is about it

Yeah, if you support the principles of limited government and individual freedom. But look at all the ignorant liberals AND conservatives who worship at the altar of Big Government. They are a bunch of useful idiots for the Marxists who want government to take more of our money and tell us how to live.

Yes he does. I am not sure who to vote for yet, but I will definitely keep an eye on him. I have voted for third party politicians before, and would consider doing so again if he was running as an independent or libertarian.
