OK, Ron Paul, The Underdog

Paul
I have now spent a week full of many
hours a day researching this Ron Paul. The Republican hopeful for
President. I have spoken with many people about him. I get a lot of
cynical responses, usually saying that a man with this sort of
integrity will simply never be allowed to be President. I think
it's awfully sad and apathetic to think such things. I would say,
that if you believe that to be true, you had best stop calling
America the greatest country in the world. Stop calling it a free
country. Stop calling it a democracy too. Because if it is true
that such a man as Ron Paul, the man some are calling the next
Thomas Jefferson, can not be elected, then America is not great,
free or democratic.
I want to believe that America is all 3 of those things. I believe this man CAN be elected to the Presidency, and you can be a major part of that. If you did not watch the short video just a few posts down, please go and do that.
Can we rise above our cynicism? Our apathy? Our Laziness to get out on voting day vote?
Already, hundreds of thousands of democrats across America have switched their party so they can vote for Ron Paul in the Primaries. Ron Paul crosses all party barriers. Race Barriers. Every barrier. Hundreds of thousands of people that have never bothered to vote before have said they are now going to vote for the first time, because finally they have found someone worthy of their vote. What about you? Can you ignore your previous party affiliations and vote for the next Thomas Jefferson? Is America important to you? Or do you just want it to continue on the path is has been going these last 20 years? I believe it's time for America to show in an incredible way, that this nation truly is great, free and absolutely democratic. What about you?
Recently, Ron Paul appeared at the Value Voters Summit. Here's a video of his questions and answers. Wait at the very least until the part where he is asked about his faith. He doesn't leave much room for doubt does he?
