For those who think influencing the GOP is a waste of time...

...just remember that if Ron Paul hadn't run as a Republican, he would have never gotten into the debates and you wouldn't be here reading this right now. :)

That's why I think
1) The next candidate for 2012 has to be a republican to get free advertising and airtime
2) We have to take over the republican party from inside instead of somehow hoping to get somewhere in a small party the media does not listens to

We need to remove the democratic party at the same time by taking over that party as well.

I think the best strategy is to have a few candidates in both parties so that we can offer "different views" even though they are damn close just like the current b.s. pros and cons versus the repub and democratic parties offer.

I think there should be patriots running as democrats AND republicans to get free air time from both sides.

You weren't paying attention when McCain did his best possible imitation of a conservative at the convention.

No lobbyists? No special interests? Balanced budgets? That's John Sydney who?!

CFL'rs in Orlando and Nevada are getting very close to taking over their local GOPs. This proves it can indeed be done.

If one thinks they can't change the Republican party, how does one think they can change the government?

Here is an example of why 3rd parties are essentially useless.

Like Truth Warrior, I am getting fed up with these stupid politc games. It appears to be a fundraiser for those who are willing to play and has little to do with the will of the population. Why do the taxpayers pay for funding of a "private club's" convention? I assume Dr. Paul had to pay for his privilede for running as a candidate for President, I mean the party requires you pay over and over for everything, so what gave them the right to marginalize him?

I have a another question. As a citizen with no criminal record or any pending legal problems or reasons to keep me from a legal vote, how do I simply cast a vote for Ron Paul as my President?
