Ron Paul for President...
http://youtube.com/watch?v=C-Y_I0sxeoc
....This vs That, in the general election...or, Ron Paul vs This/That? This
is (or is That) the question to be answered in the Primaries.

Looks like Guiliani and McCain have no real support (grassroots) in the real
world, if they neglect to pay for it. Also, looks like Romney is the only
Main Stream Media darling seriously running for the Republican Nomination.
Even Media darling Fred Thompson (who isn't running for the Republican
Nomination), and didn't show up in Iowa, beat Guiliani and McCain, he has
more real support (grassroots).

The Republican Party is ripe for a takeover. It's smaller than it's ever
been, dissatisfied Republican have been leaving in mass, and the percentage
of Americans who don't want to be associated as Republican or Democrat is
probably larger than either party, maybe both combined. Before the
Primaries, don't expect the Main Stream Media darlings to do any Party
building. But, Ron Paul shouldn't wait for the Primaries to end, the time is
NOW to help build the a new Republican Party!

Many States have different requirements for joining and participating in the
Republican Primaries. So, if you are a Democrat, a disenfranchised
Republican, Libertarian, Green, not affiliated with any Party (independent)
and are considering voting for Ron Paul, you have to do it in the Primaries
first. Here is a good YouTube video to see if you have to do something in
your State prior to the Primaries to vote Republican...

You are confused, Ron Paul doesn't have to pay for support. He was, more
or less drafted. I've already voted for Ron Paul, he's my Congressman from
the 14th District of Texas. The northern edge of his district is around a
kilometer south of JSC.

Romney, who won the Iowa straw poll has to pay for his support, even bussed
them to the Straw Poll. Look how well Giuliani and McCain did in the Iowa
straw poll when they decided not to pay for any support in the Iowa straw
poll. Even though they had billion of dollars of free support from the main
stream media, they placed #8 and #10 behind Fred Thompson who also didn't
participate. Ten thousand little advertisements in the form of news,
yielding plenty of name recognition, and Giuliani and McCain get less than
2% each.

Ron Paul didn't do so well, as you can see. Just means that Ron Paul
supporters have a lot of work to do to connect to the disconnected crowd.
Or, the main stream media connected crowd. Should be challenging.

If ol' Craig is doing this freelance, somebody ought to mention to the
Paul Campaign that getting endless off-topic "I Love Ron Paul"
messages makes it much more likely we're going to vote for someone
ELSE in the primary.

I consider who gets elected President of the United States most
definitely On-Topic in sci.space.policy, as the President has quite a bit
to do with US space policy. President Ron Paul's space policy will most
likely be quite a bit different than any of the other Republican/Democratic
candidate's space policies.

*Does this guy's wife make famous Fish Sticks?

I don't know if "The Ron Paul ... Cookbooks" contains a recipe for his
wife's Fish Sticks or not. You can order them and see for yourself. At $10
each, maybe I'll have to get one too. I wonder which one has the fish
sticks in it?

The Ron Paul Family Spring Cookbook
The Ron Paul and Friends Cookbook
The Ron Paul Family Cookbook
The Ron Paul Holiday Cookbook
Or,
The Ron Paul Celebration Cookbook
.... for when Ron Paul wins the Republican Primary.

His official Campaign site is here...
http://www.cafepress.com/RonPaul_2008
....Bumper stickers, tee shirts, coffee mugs...His supporters have a much
wider variety of Ron Paul 2008 stuff...
http://www.shopronpaul.com/
....but, Ron Paul is all about individual "Freedom", liberty, so many of his
supporters feel at liberty to simply start their own Ron Paul rEVOLution...
http://www.RonPaulRevolution.com/
....I'd like to see a Revolution in Manned Space Flight similar to the
Internet Revolution? It's going to require a free market, like the Internet
currently enjoys. Free Markets, not regulated markets, are what made our
Country great...
http://youtube.com/watch?v=SFFqANVvTV4
....IMO, Ron Paul and the free market economic concepts he talks about, will
make the changes to US Space Policy so that Americans don't have to go to
Russia, or change careers and become an Astronaut, to fly in space. IMO, at
some time in the future a Manned Space Revolution will occur, and be much
larger than the Internet Revolution. Better sooner than later.

<the above is in no way associated with Ron Paul's official campaign, just
the opinions of one of his constituents who endorses Ron Paul for President
in the Republican Party Primary. This unpaid for endorsement is also in no
way associated with the Republican Party in any way, shape or form. All
views expressed above are mine. I just really believe Ron Paul would change
American Space Policy for the better.> <I kind of feel silly having to put
a disclaimer on a USENET post>

Run, Ron, Run.
