Would the GOP be popular if they backed Ron Paul?

Question

Since many people dislike the current GOP leadership and candidates, would they be loved once again if they nominated a true conservative like him? Thanks in return.

Answer 1

The system is too corrupt for a guy like Ron Paul to ever be elected president(and not be assassinated) as he is not a CFR member.

Nowdays to be a contender you must be one of those.

Over 90% of the people in the State Department, as well as the Executive branch are CFR members.

The CFR was created in 1921 by the Federal Reserve with the goal of creating A New World Order. This is no conspiracy...it is fact- look it up. Better yet I did for you...Just look at these links.

BTW...I will be writing in Ron Paul, as there is no electable choice worth voting for.

Answer 2

RP's support was/is pretty massive.... it was just drowned out by die-hards who slandered because they didn't want votes taken away from their candidate.  They didn't properly cover him winning the phone-in polls on Fox, and he got more money from active military personel than any candidate from either party.  He also raised the most money independently in one day, ever. ($6 million in a day isn't loony.  I'd say that's a pretty positive message)

Answer 3

Too many people aren't smart enough to appreciate Ron Paul. The liberal medial lies about him but he is still better liked by liberals than Neo-Cons. If real conservatives took the Republican party back from the pseudocons who are more like corporate sponsored socialists they would open up a broader base I think but I wonder how many brainwashed neocons would become Democrats rather than support a real leader.

Answer 4

would he have cancelled the convention because gwb talking in a hurricane was just too funny. would he have picked a poster child for planned parenthood for vp.  

Answer 5

I thought Palin did.  Although I got that from here.

Answer 6

Can't you tell they rather talk about Palin than any issue?

the GOP can't talk about issues. They have no issues. They are a bankrupt party that has run this nation in the ground.

Perhaps a third party is the only way to go. It is absurd to take the Republicans and want to marry them with the religious right. The two groups are inconsistent and contradictory, and only an intelectually bankrupt person would try to fit them together.

The religious right would be far better on the Democrat side, because the Democrats support real family values. Jobs, health insurance, education, middle class families - the only things they differ on is abortion and other things that don't matter - such as g**s. But there are many Democrats who are against abortion.

The Republicans want to cut taxes and focus on the wealthy, and bomb the h**l out of people all the time. That is anti-christian.

Answer 7

Would love to see him get a Secretary of Treasury position.

Answer 8

No, because Ron Paul isn't a true member of the GOP. He is actually a libertarian. This is a different party with many shared views, but it isn't the GOP.

Answer 9

Sarah Palin is very like Ron Paul.  There are a lot of left wing cities where Ron Paul would not do well in. But like Sarah Palin, Ron Paul's record on fighting corruption and standing for cutting budgets would win over many.  Even those who do not agree with the more sensational aspects that don't have much to do with a President's job.

Answer 10

yes they would.  ron paul should be the nominee.

Answer 11

You hit the nail on the head !

True Conservatives have nothing in common with Republicans !  Knowing that, there is no way Republicans would nominate somebody like Ron Paul. The irony is that Obama's foreign policy is much more conservative than any Republican's.

Answer 12

It will be like Ronald Reagan who was a Republican. Charisma and principles is what Reagan stood for. He spoke as a true Conservative. Beat the unpopular lame duck President Jimmy Carter. People haven't been as excited about a Republican candidate as they do for Ron Paul since Reagan.

I now pray for a Brokened Convention.
