Universal Appeal:
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who has always been against the banker bailouts.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who does not flip flop on the issues, with a 24-year record in congress to prove it.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who expresses interest in opening up competition to the Federal Reserve Bank monopoly.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who has never voted for an unbalanced budget, and has pledged to never do so.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate to volunteer to take the national median salary of $39,000 during the recession, while the rest will take the full $400,000.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who is an experienced war veteran.
Left Appeal:
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who wishes to withdraw from over 700 military bases overseas.
Ron Paul is the one and only presidential candidate who will pardon people who are convicted of non-violent victimless crimes.
Right Appeal:
Ron Paul is the one and only political candidate who has never once voted for a tax increase, which is 24 years in congress in his case.

Social Conservative Appeal:
Ron Paul has been married to his first and only wife Carol since 1957. They have five children.
According to University of Georgia political scientist Keith Poole, Ron Paul had the most conservative voting record of any member of Congress since 1937.
Ron Paul and his entire family left the Episcopalian church after they adopted an official pro-choice doctrine.

Other Points:
Ron Paul rejects any ban OR legalization of abortion or gay marriage at the federal level because he believes its a matter strictly for states to decide upon.
Ron Paul proposed term-limit legislation multiple times.

Accomplishments:
As a physician, Ron Paul routinely lowered fees or worked for free with special needs cases, and refused to accept Medicaid or Medicare payments on the grounds that the programs are immoral, because people are forced to participate whether they'd like to or not.

Ron Paul served as a flight surgeon for the Air Force and also the National Guard from 1963 to 1965.

The first tea party events were grassroots efforts inspired by Ron Paul. "Tea Party 2007" was a fundraiser for Ron Paul's 2008 election. Tea Party 2008 was a Boston event where Ron Paul's son Rand Paul spoke of excessive government spending. When the bank bailouts sparked widespread tea party growth, Rand Paul became the first tea party US senator while in Kentucky.

Ron Paul studies economics as a hobby. He has been influenced by Friedrich Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, Ayn Rand, Hans Sennholz, and Murray Rothbard. He considers the Austrian theory of economics to be much more accurate than Keynesian theories. The day USA president Richard Nixon closed the gold window on August 15, 1971, Ron Paul decided to enter politics, saying later, "After that day, all money would be political money rather than money of real value. I was astounded." Since that point economics policy has been Ron Paul's primary issue.

Ron Paul is the only candidate running for office who can restore sanity in Washington; Ron Paul is the only candidate who wants to restore the rule of law in this country; Ron Paul is the only candidate running for office who understands and has a vision to restore the economic principals that made this country prosperous; and Ron Paul is the only candidate who wants to reform the unsustainable policies that are leading to our decline. Obama and the rest of the field is only offering gimmicks to manage the decline while Ron Paul is bold enough to challenge the status quo on sound money, inflationary policies, corporate bail outs and hand outs, fraud, unsustainable military growth, and Ron Paul is bold enough to challenge the failed system of bureaucracy instead of trying to throw money at our problems.

Critics say that Ron Paul's policies are radical, but revolutionary is much more appropriate. Our forefathers led a revolution against the British because they taxed too much and they were infringing on our civil liberties. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights were put in place to protect us against tyranny, but once again we are threatened. We're threatened with an economic collapse, we're threatened by ever increasing debt and taxes, and we're losing our civil liberties in the name of security. Fortunately for us we do not need a whole new system, we don't need any bold new plans, we only need to have a President who will uphold his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Ron Paul served this country for five years in the military and he understands like our veterans understand and our Armed Forces understand, they take an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;". Ron Paul is the only candidate who seeks to defend the Constitution from domestic threats which is why our troops overwhelmingly support him instead of the other candidates getting their support from the banks and the special interests.

I usually call it evolutionary... lets evolve to something resembling an actual civilization, which would be a big upgrade from semi-controlled chaos. People don't understand that the Republic is a totally new concept and the last hundred years have revealed its weaknesses. Its time to move on to something more refined.

Indeed. There is little reason for people in the 21st century to take it anymore! Endless wars, fake money, fake boobs, police state, full prisons, remote control bombs, extremely rich people jetting around the world while others starve, totally stupid people on TV, radio, movies, and shows, extreme debt, homelessness, illegal weeds, extreme government regulations, and idiots in the news. Did I mention idiots in the news?

When will we get honesty in the news? Right now we have such idiots spreading propaganda in the news that a whole bunch of people donated to a "Black This Out Money Bomb" to expose the dumbasses who pretend to be smarter than others. It is time to quit sending $Trillions to Washington D.C. for our slavery. Enough is enough.

I was thinking of the American Revolution, but the idea that we want to advance society is correct. We can do better than the status quo.

I'll give this one last bump because it includes a lot of points people can use in conversations or in writing about Paul.
