There are conflicting reports that this will be on the front cover.

That pic is bad ass.


EDIT: Now if only there was a way to read it all...

if he's on the cover with that article being prominent, the issue is a classic collector's item!

It has been a very long time since I brought Time.

Paladin, would they be deserving of my purchase in that article?

Absolutely. There is a small paragraph about him being "an extreme long shot", but apart from that, it's a great article.

It's a great article. If this is the cover story it is definitely worth buying just for what Aratus said.

It was interesting reading about the campaign's internal focus and how it contrasts between 2008 & 2012. Almost as if they knew what they were doing all along. The first campaign was more about the message to get the brush fires going. This time they are in it for the win hiring very intelligent and smart people in senior staff positions.

Some more media coverage would definitely get the power curve (exponential curve) of support throttling. 1% wasn't a large enough minority to spread the message. But his double-digit % this time around has the momentum that other candidates have pulled off in the past.

According to Ron Paul's Facebook, this could be on the front cover if the article gets enough hits. Hell, let's all click the ads on that page too while we're at it.

I think that means subscribing to read it. Once past that page, it counts as an official "hit". Don't quote me on that but it would make sense. Time wants monies.

interesting part near the end of the article

There remains the matter of the candidate himself, though. "He's incorruptible," Wead says. "He just will not say or do anything that is not based on what he believes, even if it will help his cause. It's very frustrating, because at times using different language would be so much more politically effective."
