Maybe I'm nitpicking, but the last sentence of the 5th paragraph calls the event a protest. Do any of you have problems with that.

"Thousands attended his protest last week near the GOP convention in St. Paul, Minn."

Overall the article is positive. I called and left a message for the writers' editor to change the one word.

Paul: Reject the major parties, go for a third (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/1131ap_paul_third_party_candidates.html)

If you think it's worthwhile, here's the number to call and ask them to change it:

206-448-8000

I'm ok with them calling it a protest so that the majority of readers who are left-leaning and have never looked into Ron Paul see that there are people on the right who oppose the Republican establishment and maybe they will look into him since they also oppose the Republican establishment.
