Independent-Third Party Run is Mandatory for Ron Paul!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contrary to prevalent beliefs among political pundits, a third party is workable. But it must be properly structured if it is to succeed.

(Libertarian)
Let's quit fooling ourselves. America is now a ONE PARTY STATE! Republicans and Democrats have become nothing but two divisions of the same party. Massive statism rules them both.
There is only one hope for reform. Americans must challenge the Demopublicans with a third political party. But it must be a real third party that can actually pose a threat to the Demopublicans' monopolistic rule.
It is a fallacy to say third parties in America cannot work! The reason why is because all third parties in the past century, like the Libertarians and Perot's Reformers, have been built upon two disastrous strategy flaws ("marginalization" and "cloning") that automatically doom them to failure. But correct these two fundamental errors and a genuine challenge to the Demopublicans can be launched.
Americans for a Free Republic www.afr.org has developed a cogent plan to correct these two errors and challenge today's establishment with the FREE AMERICAN PARTY. Our Mission Statement explains how the plan will work.
There is a massive groundswell of Americans out there that now senses Republicans and Democrats are one and the same and that an alternative political vision must be formed. Such a groundswell needs only to be tapped with the appropriate combination of savvy and passion. Ron Paul is the leader to accomplish this, but we must convince him to run a third-party campaign. See our Petition of Support for Ron Paul.
If we fail to convince Congressman Paul for the 2008 campaign, then we must set about building the FREE AMERICAN PARTY for 2012. This revolution will not be won in one campaign. We live in a watershed era of history. Great, epochal changes are coming; and only a properly structured third-party campaign can capitalize on these changes to restore America to the Founders' vision.
Will Paul be willing to run again in 2012? Will he be willing to go the third party route? If he isn't, then there will surely be another revolutionary leader that will come to the front. This movement is bigger than any one man.
With John McCain (nothing more than George Bush II) winning the nomination, there is going to be a major disaffection of conservatives and libertarians from the Republican Party between now and 2012. These millions can be enlisted into a third-party effort. The Republican Party is quite possibly in the initial stages of "cracking up."
Moreover, a host of severe economic crises (ruinous government debt, social security and medicare bankruptcy, peak oil, immigration overload, recession-stagflation, etc.) is going to bring great tumult and also great opportunity to the freedom movement in the next 10 years. It is an opportunity that we need to start preparing for now, but such preparation must be based upon the formation of a real third party that has some teeth.
Americans for a Free Republic www.afr.org has solved the two fundamental errors of all third parties. Its "Two Pillars Strategy" will garner the necessary 15% in the polls and put a freedom candidate with gravitas into the National TV debates held in October. This will put the libertarian-conservative message in front of 100 million voters in a non-threatening manner and allow us to effectively challenge both the Demopublican candidates, not just once, but every election year.
AFR's strategy is big time, TV oriented, major league politics that will rock the nation and make history. It will not win right away, but it will gradually over the next two decades stop the growth of the Leviathan cold.
