A Republican Party chairman, though, refused to accept the Paul-supporting chairperson, and ended the meeting, declaring that the meeting was no longer a Republican Party event, but rather a Ron Paul campaign event.

I think a "real republican" is a guy that cares for the greater good of the party.

Care to point out the core differences between Romney and Obama regarding foreign policy, education, the economy, health care, and treasonous bills regarding the constant loss of our rights and freedoms?
With the exception of the Keystone pipeline.
I bet you can't. Because no one knows where Romney stands on these issues. Not even him.
He's aligned with the "republican party" because he's a true conservative and he needed the exposure for the election cycle.

Do you care to point out where I endorse Romney or Obama?
I dont.
So Im not sure what your post means.

I think that speaks to his character. He seems to be using the Republican Party as a vehicle and is not being entirely honest about his intention's. He is a politician after all I guess.

I think his voting record speaks to his character.
The rest is just semantics to me...

Ron Paul is a conservative. There is a difference.
How would you feel if you were a 'dyed in the wool Republican' and Ron Paul decides to run as an Independant and hurt Romneys and the Republican Parties chances? Yes I know,you dont care.Many Republicans do and will.edit on 26-4-2012 by Germanicus because: (no reason given)
so how do you know that the Ron Paul message isn't the future of the Republican party?

It seems as tho you are content with the system limiting your choices of who you vote for president. If any outsider try's to run that has not pledged to do business as usual when elected then they are branded "unelectable". Baffles me how you could say Ron Paul is "the best of a bad bunch", what does that make Romney then?

Terms and labels change through time to fit the current status quo. Party systems are faux and always have been, it's a trick to brainwash and divide. Only the man matters and his specific platform, not his party affiliation.
