As of shortly after midnight Sunday night Pacific time, the Paul website was reporting more than $6 million raised on Sunday from more than 30,000 donors and an amazing fourth-quarter fundraising total surpassing $18.1 million.
Apparently, he's crazy like a fox! It is refreshing to see that at least SOME Americans haven't bought into the corporate media BS. He's raised more that the "LEADING" candidates yet the media won't touch him. Go figure.

Need I say? <5% approval rating. Doesn't matter how much you bring in if no one likes you.

Over 80,000 meetup members.
Over 100,000 unique donors.
The polls are so off, it is rediculous that they still publish them.
They have polls that call republicans who voted in the last primary. Is that really a fair view of potential voters. It was an incumbent president. Voter turn out was horrible. Basically anyone under 26 is not polled. Those who are polled are people who supported Bush a 2nd time around.
Don't be surprised when the good Doctor finishes in the top 3 in Iowa!!

I don't support Ron Paul. I wouldn't give a worm's eyelash to Hillary. But if I believed and agreed with someone I would consider supporting them. It is part of the process and a choice made by that individual... it is legal. I would much rather have these rights than the dictatorial cruelties of other countries. Remember our inalienable rights: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!

While I don't consider him a bad candidate, his 4.2 million was sent in by 37000 voters and now 6 million by 30000 voters. That is 10.2 million donated by 67,000 voters. How much does that account for in a election that it usually takes 20 million votes to win?

you're full of it. the protection rigidity would not advise any baby-kisser; the protection rigidity follows the orders from the commander-in-chief. it quite is a criminal offense for lively-accountability workers to brazenly help any baby-kisser; in spite of everything, the final public of the protection rigidity would not help some pansy-a$$ liberal in the event that they had a call. shop pulling fairy memories out of your tail pipe and you're probably to furnish your self hemorrhoids.

Simple answer. There are a lot of foolish childish people who have little recognition of reality.

His fundrasing is impressive, but does he actually spend this money. I live in South Carolina and see Romney and Huckabee ads all the time, but no Ron Paul. In that respect, maybe he is not a good candidate. Also, although I don't like him, kudos to Mike Huckabee for connecting with voters DESPITE not raising a lot of money.

Actually, we can agree for once. I am voting Ron Paul (if he wins the primary) because he is a true constitutionalist/Libertarian. he is exactly what this country needs.

Ron Paul has some great ideas, but he is very unrealistic. He needs to only commit to a couple major things he wants to change because no president can change America the amount that he speaks of in one or two terms. This leads me to believe he is fishy, especially since he is in the Republican party.

IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY HE PULLS IN , IT ONLY MATTERS HOW MUCH SUPPORT IN THE VOTES YOU PULL IN . HE IS TO FAR OUT OF MAIN STREAM TO PULL IT OFF . THIS IS SAD BECAUSE HE HAS SOME GREAT IDEAS THAT WOULD BE GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY .
