Ron Paul supporters have know idea what they would be getting into.
First
he would be a lame duck POTUS right from the start, no support would be given to Ron Paul from Congress
Second
his policies wouldnt be understood by the general population(this is different than the voting population)
panic would instill so fast there would be Anarchy in the streets...
Ron Paul at this point is a dangerous notion that will never fly, if it does, god help us

Actually, putting Romney in there would be far more dangerous because Romney's inability to pick a side and stick with it would be his undoing.
He'd be the most indecisive president either.
And when you call out Romney supporters on ATS, you get warned. Hey, they are idiots for wanting to vote for an idiot! Period.

It's a nice dream, but unfortunately, won't happen.
Romney will (hopefully) lose to Obama in 2012. H Clinton will take the WH in 2016, hopefully on a bipartisan ticket with Colin Powell or Condi Rice as running mate.
If Romney loses the bid, it will be interesting to see who the GOP will put forward as their next attempt at a Presidential run. They really have no strong candidate to put forward this time or next time, whereas Dems have Obama in place for 2012 and Clinton already lined up for 2016.
Clinton is already a seasoned politician as well as having brand name recognition inside the United States, two things very much in demand for a [X] in the box next to her name come election time.

I agree, I liked ron paul and so did
alot of people i know until
he opened his mouth and sounded
like a whack job on foreign policy..
Also, I think foreigners would love
to vote in our elections so they could
vote in commies and socialist to suit
there need for control of the world
on how they see it..
Romney would be way better president then obama.

Wouldn't' you?

Ron Paul holds strong Libertarian beliefs.
Do you even know what communism is or are you just using it as a buzz word?

Romney loses and then what?
4 more years of Obama?
How is that a good thing?
Can we get an actual American RP supporter to chime in here? I don't trust Brits who don't have a good understanding of our current political climate. That's why I never comment on Parliamental affairs.
