What does Ron Paul want?

[BUSHLIED]

Why is Ron not leaving the impression that he wants to win the primary and be the nominee. If insiders think he is just playing around, then well they aren't going to get behind him or take him seriously. The media continues to say NOW he is not running to be the nominee and that he is setting the stage for his son Rand, trying to influence the platform, and get a convention speech.

Why is Ron taking 4 days off before what could be his most important primary?? Leaving everyone with doubts and questions. This is what happened last time and why people became disenchanted....the grassroots wanting Ron to win more than he seems to want to win...

EDIT: Here's another one:
“It's why people perceive him as running to lead a movement, and not to win the Oval Office,” Fleischer explained.

Really good article from The Hill, and better yet, it's on drudge.

I tend to agree with you all, but remember the man is 76 years old.

But still, four days seems a lot when the next primary is coming up fast.

Don't let the media get the best of us. Paul will be back soon, he has worked too hard for too long to not care about pushing this as far as he can.

He will be there tomorrow, refreshed, renewed, regrouped and ready to take no prisoners. ;)

I've said it before and I will say it again, Paul supporters MUST STOP parroting the media about his "paving the way for Rand". It is utter NONSENSE.

When Paul ran in '07-'08 Rand wasn't even in Politics.

Paul has always said that he is not interested in 3rd party because the rules make it immposible to win and that he would rather stay in hius party and help bring it back to it's roots. And that IS what he has been doing.

To whomever has been in other threads and off the board, please stop feeding bogus memes. Thank you!
