I doubt it because the mainstream media is censoring his campaign and most Americans are too stupid and lazy to do their own research on all the candidates. They leave it up to the MSM to feed them all their info. I will be writing him in though. Maybe he'll go 3rd party and catch a lot of the middle-of-the-roader votes too.
Ron Paul has the country's best interest in mind. He wants to restore power to the States. Leaving it up to local government to decipher issues like gay marriage, abortions, gun laws...etc. It's up to you to elect local officials who represent your views....not the prez.
You all think the prez has the right to act like a dictator and tell all the states of the union how to act.... THIS IS NOT HOW AMERICA WAS INTENDED TO WORK

1) Doubtful. He's only got 4 primary votes. He'll really need to catch on fire to get the nomination.
2) He's the only one I like and I agree with about 80% of the time so nomination or not, I'm voting Ron Paul in November.

I'm voting for him even though I don't think he'll win.
I strongly believe that in a primary, you should vote for who you want to have win (or perhaps against someone you don't want to win) but it's totally self-defeating to vote for someone just because you think they're going to win, even if you don't like them. That means you just helped someone you don't want to win, win.
Also I am an independent, and I'm tired of the conservative vs. liberal divide. I think a lot of Americans are conservative on some things and liberal on others, and I would like to see a broader range of candidates and more new ideas getting a fair hearing.

If he was given a fair chance, He would win by the bigest landslide in history. I hope he does. we need him in office.
Sadly, I felons can't vote, (stupid hot checks 15 years ago) or I would vote for him.

No, he's done. It's too far into the primarys and he's won nothing.
I like his position on treating drug addicts instead of incarcerating them. But moving the dollar to a gold standard is a huge step backwards.
He's not my 1st choice.

No, he isn't going to win the primary vote because most people think that he is an idiot. And No I am not voting for him.

No, he is too far behind.
I really like and admire him, but honestly, some of his solutions, while based on sound principles, are too simplistic for the problems.
I appreciate what he has brought to the table, though.

No he doesn't because the corporate controlled media does not give him any coverage.
I would not vote for him, but I hope he sticks around because his ideas are making people think.
