TechPresident.com featured a story some time back about the lack of web widgets by the candidates. Then widgetnest.net responded with 4 widgets and asked for requests for other candidates. I requested one for Ron Paul, and they agreed!

It is done and looks great.

It runs the news items from ronpaul2008.com

Emed it onto your own websites, myspace, blogs, etc.

Will be great to get out the word.

Can an embed button be added to this widget? If I place it on a webpage and it doesn't have an embed button that gives code for sharing then it seems to be missing the key viral element it needs. Am I just not seeing it?

As requested, here's the code for the widget with the the code included below the widget so others can easily add the same info to their own site. The code included in the text field duplicates the entire widget and "add this to your site" info.

I guess you could call it "asexual".

up on the website in the "Press" section. See sig.

Great widget! Turns out it matches on the other graphics.
