As I said before...Could he win hypothetically? Heck yeah! But in reality? No way.
Here is the situation, America has become a market based system of governance. Industry is important, but when liberties, environment, social needs
and sustainability are placed above profits, big business needs to get its head pulled in and straighten up before it takes us all out. We are talking
about a revolution.

The problem Paul faces is navigating his way through all of the BS the GOP will throw at him.
The paperwork monkeys are going to be throwing everything they have at this. Some of it will be important and needs lots of resources to address, some
of it will be rubbish and can be burnt to keep you warm at night around the camp fires. What is important is the electoral system. The public was
smart enough to get rid of Bush before his second term, the machine said no. We need the geeks in the system to expose the fraud going on with the
media picking it up and push for a redevelopment. An open source solution to electronic voting is the only answer if you want a fair electoral system.
This is going to be a hard front to crack, but it is the only way to get justified integrity back into governance. I see this as the most important
challenge to his chances.
The tea party sounded like it was pushing for reform when it started, but has since been hijacked by the usual political players when it got some
momentum. Sarah Palin?
Not sure if this party can be salvaged or just start again. The people are waking up to how the game is now fixed as the
umpire sold out. There is a lot of public support for reform so some rules will have to be broken to get it through. Some of these rules are to
protect the current status quo with on open and justified explanation of why these laws are corrupt needed as they are challenged.
