RP Supporters, why won't he just run as a third party candidate???

He is planning a rally the 2nd day of the Republican National Convention...do you think this will be too little too late?

Update:

He does so well in the debates...I think he needs to be in there!! Thoughts?

    Rp got over a million votes in the republican primaries, his stated reason for not running as a third party is that the changes he seeks ,he seeks to make in the republican party, also third parties are routinely discriminated against and have to expend a lot of energy just getting on the ballot, its an uphill battle. I still support Ron Paul but am going to vote for Bob Barr since RP will not do the third party thing.

    Because IF he wins as a third party candidate, which is very unlikely...because people have been brainwashed to believe a two party system is good...he will not get any support from the congress..

    But i guess that doesn't matter cuz all he would have to do is the same thing Bush did, unconstitutionally bypass the congress with every step he takes. But that is not Ron Paul or Dennis Kucinich's style...they both believe in and uphold the constitution, the only two politicians worth running.

    A CEO, a hard work Union chief, and a center administration representative met sometime to paintings out some employer disputes. there change genuine right into a container of cookies on the table and the CEO contained in the modern took 11 of the dozen, then he turns to a minimum of one among of different men and whispers, "hey that guy is making an attempt to take a million/2 of YOUR cookie". as long as a united states complacently accepts that heartless companies are people. Then the people do no longer stand a huge gamble.
