So all you need to do now is tell him that Santorum can't win because he's not on all the ballots.

Simple.

Congrats!

Great job! Now get him to be a delegate :)

I've been slowly getting the office guys towards Paul.. Bunch of old drafters and engineers.. Just suddle commments of income taxes, social security devaluation and war profiteering each and everyday. They started off saying I supported Ru Paul but now I can hear them at the water cooler saying "it's a damn shame Ron Paul isn't getting more coverage, he's the only republican who makes any sense" - Winning!

Tell him to do his own research and look at "The Issues" section at ronpaul2012.com. It worked for my dad, so give it a shot.

I've converted a dozen or so people over the years, but there's usually two stumbling blocks:

1) Foreign policy, or
2) Economic policies

#1 is easy; #2 is hard, because a lot of people have a lot of difficulty with the idea of freedom. They just think the rich will run around looting and pillaging everything and the little guy will be left with nothing. I guess the biggest problem I find is that people don't see freedom as an enabler.

Santorum can't win nationally. Is your dad pro tea party? If so, just email him the clip of Santorum trashing the tea party and how he will fight them in the Republican party.

I got my dad over to Paul a couple of months ago. He was for Newt until he started learning who Newt really was and how he supported Cap and Trade, Obamacare and the bail outs.

Just keep working on him and telling him that we have to cut off the big government monster at the source and get Paul in to make a clean break from socialism!
