Ron Paul does not rule out running for President in 2012

A good interview...similar to the recent one on Rachel Maddow explaining what he thinks is happening with the tea parties. He is asked about Sarah Palin and kind of blows it off.

To the point..

At the end of the interview...Ron Paul is asked if he will run in 2012 and replies that he hasn't ruled out running...but isn't planning on doing it. I know he's getting up there in age and that is a factor as well.

I need something to be hopeful about as I don't think I can stand having another Republicrat serving as our President.

You know i think for the first time in my life i may actually pray for someone to become president.

I know what you mean. This country is going straight to the crapper and he is one of the few that I feel I could trust....a man who honestly do what's right for the American people...and just be HONEST with them. I don't want another Bush or Obama...I don't want more broken promises.

I don't want more jobs sent overseas. I don't want to continue to watch our banking system continue to steal from us. I don't want to continue to be a part of war that will never end. I don't want to continue to see the blatant corruption coming out of Washington.

I'm tired of it and fear for my child's future.

Ron Paul 2012 R3vo]ution. It's time to take America back now! I do not expect him to run but if he did he get my vote and I will personally walk around my city with one of them microphone things and let everyone know how our government is and who can change it. I will also set up a mini protest in support of Ron Paul along with fellow supporters. If he does run and by a miracle actually won the Republican nomination has anyone thought that campaign would look like. Barack Obama the big government, secret keeping, Wall Street loving, war mongering, liar V.S. the small government, no secrets, Main Street loving, anti-war, consitutionalist. I believe we will see a serious clash when Ron Paul gets his voice heard which the MSM and our government does not want to happen, they don't want a truth movement that will stop them from lining their pockets, destroying our constitution, and stripping us of our rights. We will see serious R3vo]ution'ers virsus the Obamessiah sheeple. That should be quite entertaining while I'm out there protesting.

If he runs...I'll be out there. I'm one of those who didn't know about Ron Paul until after his Presidential campaign was over. I've never been political in my life until this last year. I even made signs to protest on the National Tea Party day earlier this year on April 15th..even though now the movement has been tainted by Sarah Palin.

I don't think the mid-term elections are going to be reminiscent of what will happen in 2012. Many Republicans will take Democrat seats in 2010. Younger people tend to come out in less force for midterm elections...and ultimately the young will decide the next President which is why it is so important to awaken them.

Older folks will continue to vote the same way they always have...but it's the youth of this country that got Obama in office...and they are the one's that can get a Ron Paul or someone similar in the white house.

We need to end Republicrat rule. I'm with ya Misoir.

I hope his son carries the hell out of the torch he has been wielding and something actually comes out of it

Id back Paul.
Wanna know why?
Because he doesnt give a damn what angle the camera is shooting from.
No tricks, in your face politics.
I like.

Totally UNFOUNDED. RED FLAG!!
Sorry but this old man brings more sanity to the table than this whole administration put together.

Nobody is sane enough to run this country ..

I would love if some Euro-Socialist becomes president ..

Lol..well that would explain why you think he's crazy.

The closest thing we have to a Euro-Socialist is Bernie Sanders...and although I don't agree with him on many things...(definitely not all)...I don't think he's crazy. (Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders are leading the fight for an Audit of the Federal Reserve) I can live with disagreement as long as I know the person has the best intentions for the country and is truthful...which both of these men are.

Why is ron paul insane? Seriously polynomial, since you seem to have every damn thing figured out then why exactly is ron paul insane? Because he is a member of the republican party? I got news for you, only reason he is a republican is because it increases the chances of him being voted for.

i am not a registered voter, becuae their all fakes and thieves. this i know..IF ron paul runs for president IM going to become a registered voter

Ron has a DAMN good chance, peope ahve learned how flawed and corrupt the system and corporate america is. Everyone is FED up with obama, and the big banks...the problem is, suppose ron paul does run for presidency..could he win legitamelty,w ithout i dunno CIA, the FED playing with the votes so someone of their favor wins?

I can't help but agree with you. The only politicians that I know of who I truly trust are Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, and Bernie Sanders. I am more big government and I am a Socialist but I believe so strongly in civil liberties that I am willing to turn our economy libertarian than let these monsters continue to hollow out the economy and spit on the constitution. I am also annoyed when people say that socialists hate the constitution, I love it and I believe that this is the basis that began all true freedom in the world and it kills me when I see it being used as nothing but a tool from the right to attack the left and as nothing but garbage to the left. Which just leaves u freedom lovers stuck in the middle of this fight trying to push both big men off of us so we can speak for the ritousness and truth.

There is still one giant hurdle, Congress. Persay Ron Paul is elected president, he pass any legislation without congress approving it. But atleast we will have a man of truth in office.

IF ron paul plays his cards right, between now nad 2012, not overdoing it, and not under doing it, warning us fellow americans of whats to come...he iwll be golden* and the FED and government iwll look like total liars..naturally, people will wnat change agian, and this time, truth* ron has a dman good chance!
My only thing is, when they give him 'the talk' i wonder what he will do...go with the flow or defy them.
