Why isn't Ron Paul Speaking at the National Convention?

Question

he's not slated to speak.

Answer 1

c'mon...

thats easy..

Answer 2

The GOP is terrified of Ron Paul.  

Answer 3

Firstly, Republicans don't like his ideas.

Secondly, McCain already won his primaries.

Thirdly, he goes a bit too far with his ideas.  He pushes in the right direction, but he overshoots anything within reason.

Answer 4

Neither party likes him.

He's too honest.

Answer 5

Because the GOP didn't allow him, unless he endorsed McCain. Since Ron Paul is against McCain's ideas, and his neo-con friends, that's why didn't go. He's not a sell out. So, he started his own campaign to invite real conservatives, libertarians, democrats, basically anyone who was rooting for Ron Paul, or is concerned the way the country is headed. Take care.

Answer 6

they didnt invite him because he is not a neocon liberal.  he is having his own convention on the same day called the rally for the republic.

Answer 7

Isn't he holding a counter convention? Thats probably why

Answer 8

He's been quietly swept under the rug by the GOP.

He is, however, holding his Rally for the Republic at the same time as the GOP convention.

Answer 9

He never identified with Modern Conservatives, and stuck to the classical model of Conservatives.  In fact, Paul had to announce his withdrawal from the election OUTSIDE the Texas Republican Convention earlier in the summer.  Makes me wonder why he hasn't left the party yet, but, then again, no elected official can switch parties while serving their term.

Answer 10

He kinda made the Republicans angry this year...

Oh well. I respect him already because he at least tries to be different.
