I highly doubt he will run for president. He'll have major influence in the elections though.

He will indeed have major influence, and that is probably going to work against Ron. I suspect that Beck will end up trying to sabotage Ron.

However, there is a way to defend against this and perhaps even "force" Beck to endorse Ron: Judge Napolitano must be announced as Ron's theoretical running mate early in the primary season, preferably as soon as Ron himself announces. http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=257112

I also think this is the case..2012 is going to be the most interesting presidential election ever.

Lets just hope the Ron Paul Movement doesn't associate itself with Guy Fawkes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes) (the terrorist) again. "Remember, Remember the 5th of November." The media had fun demonizing Ron Paul with that one.

Wasn't that the moneybomb where we raised historic amounts of money in a single day?

At his rally I saw some people with Glenn Beck for President shirts on...

When I was holding my sign one guy came up to me and said "you should support Glenn Beck for President. We need a man in office who isn't afraid to cry."

HAHAHAHA, I said Glenn Beck is an entertainer, nothing more.

The media tried to spin it that way, but I guarantee it only caused us to raise even more money. There's going to be another Guy Fawkes money bomb.

Exactly! That campaign had the best marketing, by far of all the money bombs, thanks to the media controversy.

It's like when Grand Theft Auto comes out and all the parents and Bill O'Reilly's of the world complain and create a stink about the violence in the media, and and try to get it banned. Well.... Guess what... They just made millions more want the game, lol.

Is Glenn Beck hijacking the Tea Party movement with neoconisms like religion and war?

How quaint. How timely. Obama should be rejoicing about now.

He wont run for president. Glenn Beck is one of two things. Either what he says he is (a patriotic american whos trying to help, but isnt the politician type). Or a pure entrepreneur. If he is either of those 2 things, he wont run for president.

I've seen the MSNBC and CNN clips, I've only heard them mentioning Guy Fawkes, as they should, it's in the name of our moneybomb. But, the only person who really associated us with terrorists was the messiah himself Glenn Beck.

Guy Fawkes Day Helps Raise Millions for Paul (http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/11/05/paul-supporters-raise-27-in-a-day/)

NY Times

Historians and British schoolchildren remember Guy Fawkes as the Roman Catholic, anti-Protestant rebel who on Nov. 5, 1605, tried to assassinate King James I by blowing up the Parliament. Supporters of the Republican primary campaign of the libertarian Representative Ron Paul may remember Fawkes as a wildly successful fund-raising gimmick.

ABC's Z. Byron Wolf Reports from South Carolina: It's sort of an odd allusion for a fundraising campaign in these days of hypersensitivity to terrorism, even if the Congressman it will benefit is running for president as a Libertarian Republican spoiler who wants to drastically change the way government runs in Washington.

But there was Ron Paul on the stump at Clemson in South Carolina telling a group of several hundred students and supporters, "Remember, remember the 5th of November."

Right. Besides, what the media says about Ron is ultimately out of our hands.

The media is going to attack Ron Paul very seriously if he runs in 2012, regardless of what we do. They'll associate him with whoever they want, based on whatever random sources they can scrape together. There's no point in compromising to try and soften the blow, just stay true to your principles, stay apathetic to the mainstream media, and push forward. :)

Guy Fawkes was a socialist. I never understood why people associate him with anarchy. And especially not Ron Paul.

Yea, I think it was more inspired by his portrayal in the movie V for Vendetta, where he single=handedly Woke all of society up to the corruption of the state.

You know what else? Since then, I never heard - even in the scummiest slums of DailyKos and The New Republic - 'Guy Fawkes' mentioned ever again. So apparently they tied Paul to him very, very poorly.

I'm talking about in any of their Paul-bashing threads. The Guy Fawkes thing is never brought up. It's always something about newsletters or pork or internet spam.

Every election, we hear this, and every election, we hear how this the most important election ever, blah blah blah, and then it's yet another staged media circus where embarrassingly people fawn over 2 NWO stooges who both want to prey on society in almost the exact same way.

Glenn doesn't stand a chance, it is well known he raped and murdered a young girl.



Some sources claim that Glenn Beck may be responsible for the rape and murder of a girl in 1990. Classic Glenn Beck style reasoning suggests that he is responsible for clearing his name of these atrocious acts. A new site “exists to probe the vicious rumour that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990.”

Here is some of the evidence:

* Why haven’t we had an official response to the rumor that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990?
* Some say he ate her remains in a drug-filled pagan ceremony. Some say.
* “R” is for radical “A” is for astronaut “P” is for paper “S” is for super-douche “T” well, I don’t have that yet, but if I did, this would spell “rapist”
* Fox News Poll: Should Glenn Beck deny rape allegations? Vote Now!
* Omg I cant find a single entry/item/article ANYWHERE that says Mr. Beck is not a rapist.
* He has exposed himself as a guy over and over again who has a deep seeded [sic] hatred for consensual sex or the “No Means No” culture, I don’t know what it is. I’m not saying he doesn’t like consensual sex, I’m saying he has a problem. This guy is, I believe a rapist.

there were 200,ooo to 300,ooo palin people at the rally
irreguardless of whether we go by the higher guestimate
or the lower one. a million people in d.c over the total day
might be the tally for both rallies that afternoon becuz some
of the crowd could be a curious overlap as there were people
who arrived briefly for one of the two events. its all guess~work.

id almost put money that mitt romney will announce his run sometime next year and glenn beck will rally behind him.
Then the sheeple will overwhelmingly vote for mitt and well have a republican controlled congress and then when the sheeple cheer that were saved,nothing will change and well go deeper in debt and the lower class will continue to rise in greater numbers.to the point where theres no more middle class,just rich and poor,thus requiring bigger government to take care of the lower class

Glenn Beck hates Romney. He would never back him up.

And Romney doesnt stand a chance at winning the republican nomination. One of the biggest reasons people hate Obama is Obamacare. The man who instituted state sponsored healthcare in his home state isnt going to be popular.
