OK, so let's say this guy Paul makes some sense. why does he choose to speak in Iowa? Iowa? what does one talk about in Iowa? cows? corn? dancing with the rednecks? granted, Iowa is not quite as bass ackwards as Texas or Arizona but if Ron Paul wants a serious audience, people who think, people who will challenge him intellectually perhaps he should enter a "blue" state. I mean c'mon, Iowa? they gave their straw poll to you know who. (Bachmann). maybe Ron Paul is afraid of being challenged? I can't understand why he panders to some of the people and groups he panders to. .......... jus my opinion
.....It's a state dude. I don't think it's fair to say one state is more intelligent than another state.

You mean the "O" in the background? I didn't notice that until you pointed it out but yeah I see what you mean. That was set up intentionally to symbolize how he is going to be this nations savior
Is it just me or does the camera angle make it look like he has a giant halo? Ha!
I actually felt weird reading that "we" could make a difference, I guess I'm just so used to politicians acting on their own. It's weird that the people have so little say in what our government does in this so called democracy of ours *cough cough federal republic*.
I still wonder though how much of a difference we would be allowed to make if he got the preseidency.
I gotta disagree with you here kro ( that's nothing new ). Somebody brought this up in another thread, but recently Rick Perry's anti-Fed rhetoric has been a poor attempt at shadowing Ron Paul, but he took it too far with his "treasonous" accusations. As Ron Paul said, a corporation looking out for itself isn't treason, our government allowing a corporation to have so much control over us and put us in this position is the treasonous thing.
Perry will zoom in his lazer sights on whoever the closest competition happens to be which isn't Paul. More than likely he'll be attacking Romney. Just no need to spend energy on somebody that's not a threat unless you believe all the poll numbers are false.
