Space aliens trying to understand the 2008 presidential election solely through the comments sections of websites would have no trouble picking the winner: Ron Paul.

Anyone who's ever written a blog post about the fringey Texas Republican can attest to the mystifying speed with which Paul's rabid followers flock to proclaim their loyalty. (Don't let me down, people. I know you're out there.) Hillary and Rudy can only dream of eliciting such fervor.

Thank you, Time, for finally shedding some light on how this state of affairs came about: through the efforts of 28-year-old "eCampaign Director" Justine Lam. She's the reason Paul is beating serious, non-crazy candidates in online fund-raising and web polls.

Will someone who doesn't want to abolish the entire federal government hire this girl already?

Justine is our widget code lady.

The writer said that because she has no idea how we got organized, so she is guessing.

Justine is a nice person tho, btw

Ahh thanks.

Well, it's pretty funny if the other candidates dying and trying to figure out what his secret is, are lead to beleive it's some lady named Justine organizing us.;)

Thanks for the widget Justine!:D

You've got to understand that to a lot of people, the concept that a bunch of independent people pursuing their own ideas can lead to large-scale structure and awe-inspiring efficiency is INCOMPREHENSIBLE! To these kinds of people there HAS to be someone 'in charge' or else it just doesn't make sense to them...

Welcome to the marketplace :D
