Ron Paul has 500 delegates going to Tampa?

Ron Paul, even though his campaign has been marginalized, blacked out by the medias, and scoffed at by mainstream Republicans, will have a small army of delegates heading to the convention.

I can feel it, something big is going to happen. I highly doubt that all of his delegates are going to concede, and it will be a Romney coronation.

    Yes.

    That's why the GOP are planning on nominating Romney early to avoid Ron Paul's delegates.

    In other words, they're going to disrespect Ron Paul and his supporters even more.

    Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul will enter the GOP convention next week with more delegates after a deal was reached avoiding a potentially embarrassing standoff with Mitt Romney.

    The compromise settled a dispute over delegates from Louisiana.

    “Paul will be awarded 17 of the state’s 46 delegates in the compromise,” Paul campaign chairman Jesse Benton told ABC News in an email. “The rest of the state’s delegates are expected to support Mitt Romney, the party’s presumptive nominee.”

    In addition, the RNC will seat an additional Paul delegate from Massachusetts.

    If they don't concede they accept the risk of a complete conversion of America at the hands of the democrat party, in which case...God dam# them.

    Democrat President Wilson (1913-1918) said, “You are not here merely to make a living. You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world. You impoverish yourself if you forget this errand.” He may have been the first democrat to appreciate the potential use of multiculturalism (“If it’s white or American, trash it!”) in deconstructing the Constitution, saying, “No nation is fit to sit in judgment upon any other nation.” Obama put it this way (without using a teleprompter!): "Every nation is exceptional in its own way."

    Democrat President Roosevelt (1933-1945) “let it all hang out” in his speech before Congress on January 11, 1944:

    “We have accepted, so to speak, a second Bill of Rights...” which included:

    -The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation

    -The right of every family to a decent home

    -The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health

    -The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment.

    Democrat President Johnson’s Great Society became the largest redistribution of wealth program in our history. Obama has thrust national healthcare upon us, the hallmark of all socialist and welfare states.

    25 years ago none of the above was common knowledge. It is only because of more honest, unbiased reporting on the Internet, talk radio and Fox News (all non-existent 25 years ago!) that today we know that the democrat party has been gradually changing America into a European style welfare state.

    -2/4/10 Gallup poll: 61% of liberals have a positive view of socialism.

    -6/2/11 Gallup poll: 71% of democrats favor re-distributing wealth.

    -Now they have national health care, the foundation of all welfare and socialist states.

    Ron Paul has no chance of being elected. He has never poled above single digits.

    He goes from brilliant to psychotic without missing a beat.

    Ron Paul did not do anything in conress so how in the the world could he as president. He needs to retire and just go away. He is basically a nut.

    You're a Paul fan. You might stop alienating Democrats with your screen name. I agree Paul was cheated by FOX and the GOP.

    Ron Paul is nuts, period. People ignore him because his is wacky. He starts talking and you say, yeah, yeah that makes sense, by the middle of the speech its like, um okay, and by the end its like WTF. its like the people ina mental ward. He has a few good Ideas but most are bad. Hes old and dillusional and needs to just calm down. Rand probably puts his head down and shakes everytime Ron talks its like Dad, just chill out you're making me look bad.
