Here's the deal, Ron Paul has an issue...his issue is that his foreign policy is liberal and his domestic policy is conservative.

Don't fool yourselves into thinking you have a real choice.
I for one refuse to let the government walk all over me. I cannot bear to bow down for much longer.... The Constitution itself says that when our government it to become corrupt we must overthrow it...

im getting sick and tired of listening to people say stuff like, he will never win, the elites wont allow it.
dont you think we know that?
i would rather support a candidate that has no hope of winning if its the right message, and RP has that.
its not about getting behind a person that will win, rather a question of right and wrong.
true ron paul supporters will follow him no matter the outcome.
you guys that say he will never win are part of the problem

If I were a traditional republican...I would be applauding what the party is doing...I would be happy that they are stopping Ron Paul and his supporters from hijacking the party.
I would say the same with the Democrat party...Ron Paul is basically 50% liberal (foregin policy) and 50% conservative (domestic policy)...if Ron Paul tried to hijack the Democrat process...I would hope the party leaders would do something to prevent that.
Ironically...Ron Paul may have had a better chance at winning the democratic nomination since no one is challenging Obama and turnouts are low because everyone knows Obama will be the nominee.

Ouch. People like you make me almost more upset than the people that just lie about politics and pretend some candidates do not exist. This country needs to stop being lazy and start being active about things! To say we do not have a choice is, well demoralizing and pessimistic to say the least. The people do have a choice, but more people that see reality like you and I need to stop planting that placebo into everyone's minds...
If everyone that has the power to change something get together ans say that it is useless to try, what do you think will happen?

The Declaration of Independence is not the Constitution and it has no bearing on our laws.
