This bothers me about some Ron Paul supporters. Obviously its not too many since Freds giving day only got about 80 pledges, but the guy brings up a point that we need to remember.
Anyone that gets offended by a Paul supporter or gets into a heated argument with one, will almost definately dig their heels in and not even look into Ron Paul. This is counter productive. Yes our movement is large and impressive, but we can't take that for granted. And while it is fun to watch other grassroots attempts to follow in the rEVOLution's footsteps sputter, its poor form to mock them. Ron Paul is always tolerant (nowadays) and I think that trait has gained him much of the support thats carrying the movement.
