SENATOR RAND PAUL ENDORSES GREG BRANNON for U.S. SENATE

“Dr. Brannon will stand up against the Washington establishment”


Raleigh, NC – Today, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) announced his endorsement of Dr. Greg Brannon for U.S. Senate in North Carolina.

“I enthusiastically endorse Greg Brannon for U.S. Senate because he’s a true constitutional conservative who will join me in fighting against business as usual in Washington.”

“Americans are looking for leaders who will honor their oath of office by fighting to ‘protect and defend’ the Constitution and Greg is the clear choice for conservatives in North Carolina.“

“The American people don’t want more politicians in the U.S. Senate who will continue to expand the size of government. We need Greg in the Senate to provide vital reinforcements to help reverse out-of-control spending, restore constitutional limitations on our federal government, and fight back against President Obama’s agenda.”

"And as Ted Cruz, Mike Lee and I showed clearly in our campaigns, when you run on principle and excite the grass-roots Republicans, and Independents and even Democrats hungry for a change, you win. That's why I support Greg Brannon, and expect him to be North Carolina's next Senator," concluded Senator Paul.

Senator Paul's endorsement is sure to take the Brannon campaign’s momentum to an all new level as conservative support from across the state has surged in recent weeks.

The pro-life Obstetrician’s campaign has energized conservatives who are excited to have an anti-establishment candidate in the race who will oppose the Big Government, big spending status quo in both political parties.

“I urge conservatives in the state of North Carolina and across the nation to rally around Greg Brannon by contributing generously to his campaign and joining the grassroots volunteer effort to ensure that there is a strong Constitutional conservative Senator from North Carolina,” said Paul.

Brannon thanked Senator Paul for his endorsement.

“I’m honored to receive the endorsement of Senator Paul, a true champion for liberty in Washington. Senator Paul has shown principled leadership in the U.S. Senate and I look forward to the opportunity to join him in this fight,” said Brannon.

From that article:


Paul’s decision to snub the two top-tier candidates – Thom Tillis and Mark Harris – to endorse Brannon further splits the Republican primary vote, reflecting the divide in the party among moderates, evangelicals and tea partiers.


So Mark Harris who joined the race yesterday is now top-tier, but not Brannon? :rolleyes:

Of course he's "top-tier", he's supported by the establishment. His campaign manager is the former chief of staff for the NCGOP and an aid to Tillis ally, Senate Leader Phil Berger. His campaign co-chair is former congressman and NCGOP chair Robin Hayes.

He's a faux outsider in the mold of Rick Santorum that's here to split the vote in favor of Tillis. That's a fact that needs to be spread.

I bet Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz will follow too if we're able to get a little momentum. Now is crucial.

Harris can be neutralized if the Senate Conservatives Fund, Club for Growth, FreedomWorks PAC, Cruz, and Lee all come in on Brannon's side. It'll establish him as the true grassroots candidate

I'm sure that will be in the future. In the meantime help promote the 12/16 Money Bomb for Brannon on Rand's page. If we raise big money Brannon will get some nice media attention out of it. To be taken serious you have to have the ability to raise money.

Those groups will come on board if we raise 6 figures for Brannon on 12/16. Help promote the money bomb Here (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?430464-Greg-Brannon-12-16-Money-Bomb-Planning-amp-Promotion-Goal-5-000-Facebook-Event-Pledges!&highlight=greg+brannon)

Good news. Brannon sounds like he would be a fantastic addition to the US Senate.
