if there is no source on Wikipedia, you can probably have it removed

It's kind of common knowledge at this point... most of the local grassroots is carrying copies everywhere by now as well. We hand them out all the time.

Check out the source, seems a bit flimsy if you ask me.

Although it might be true. I mean, hell, I carry mine with me in my pocket everywhere I go.

I know, I carry my own and since you obviously didn't see my many other posts about a great deal on a pocket constitution...

if you looking for a more realistic option to hand out, I think you should go with these:

Declaration & Constitution booklet (http://patriotshop.us/product_info.php?products_id=124&osCsid=d30bcbf224c944a06b4587cb888f82e5)

.45 each for orders of 100 or more

Ron Paul's FREE Foundation has green faux-leather ones that have an intro by Ron and his picture. We use those.

How and where do you get those? I'm on the site and can't find them.

I have a pocket edition of the Founding Documents and a pocket New Testament with me 95% of the time (the other 5% they're in my last pair of pants:p)

We've had them donated by some people with funds, I'm trying to get a direct contact so we can order more, I'll post it here if I get it and it's public.

To anyone looking for a pocket Constitution I highly recommend this seller on eBay:

http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZleesthings

I got a new one from her a few months ago and stuffed a RP card in the letter with my payment and just a few days later she sent me it in the mail along with an EXTRA one for free and a nice note that she supports RP too :)

" The National Center for Constitutional Studies produces the most authentic version of the Constitution. Many other versions being circulated, such as the one from the U.S. Government Printing Office, have been "revised."

Constitution activists from the National Center for Constitutional Studies will distribute pocket Constitutions to people inspired to learn more about the Constitution, as quickly as you donate the funds. " (source: ronpaulmax.com)

By the way, since this has been bumped on the subject of whether or not Ron Paul carries a copy of the Constitution with him when I was in his office in April when BJ met with him he pulled some pocket Constitutions from a big box he had in a cabinet. They were produced by his FREE Foundation. They had green covers and had "Courtesy of Ron Paul" stamped on the front. He gave one to each of us (me, BJ and Alex, our campaign's Communication's Director).

I think this, while in no means answers the question of whether or not Dr. Paul carries a Constitution with him, lends legitimacy to the claim that he does. I'd say odds are very good that he does, in fact, carry a pocket Constitution with him most times if not at all times.

I think, that for a while at least, he has been very nearly the sole carrier of the consitution. Not physically but as the lone voice of consitutionalism on the Hill he carries it metaphorically as well.
