My fiance likes Ron Paul but my constant forcing her to watch the latest video on him is starting to get on her nerves. Also complains about having to do the door to door thing with the flyers with me. Shes more of a passive supporter, but shes getting used to it.

I have to get up at 7:30 am but im still here:confused:

LOL!!!!LOL!!!!!! MY WIFE HAS SAID THAT!!!!! LOL!!!!

I am an American citizen living overseas working for the government. So I cannot participate in rallies, sign making, or straw polls. I can ONLY support online. So....

I spend most of my time compiling videos to send to friends/family, sending emails, letters to editors, and tracking news.

I am also working with one of my friends to get some Ron Paul video's on my hometown's Public Access channel.

It may sound 'bad', but in all honesty, it's the reason we're seeing the campaign gain traction.

- If you and your spouse have an organized "Ron Paul time" each night, in which you tell her everything that happened to RP that day.

Now that is hard core.


My additions:

- You're a member of 4 or more Ron Paul meet-ups.
- Your checking the "Ron Paul net" within 30 seconds of getting up. (Hey, us mods have to keep tabs on you 4AM'ers. :) )
- Home projects come to a near grinding halt.
- You've campaigned enough for at least two people to ask if you are Ron Paul.

......your 4 children (7-13) talk about Ron Paul, too. Your 9 yo daughter recently met another girl at the swimming pool whose family is also for Ron Paul.

......you've resolved to live in Ron Paul t-shirts or buttons (until after the election) when you are out and about.

......you find yourself pondering ways to make money so you could donate more to Ron Paul.

well, i just all the threads and i'm really glad to know that i'm not the only one doing this stuff! boy o boy - i was getting kinda worried.
i really can't imagine a day in my life without dr. paul in it!

i fell in love with him when i met him last february and there's no letting up.......
to know him is to love him!

ps carol (his wife) has a my space link (?) - somebody put it up yesterday. could somebody post it if they find it. i think we all need to go there and thank her. dr. paul has said so many times how she's been on him to do this! she deserves our thanks!!!!

You drive 14 hours to Iowa just to pass out flyers.

Once you get back home you debate with yourself if you should do it a second time.

You tell friends there is no room in your car for them because you have a giant 4' x 8' sign that is taking up space.

While watching movies you correlate the message with Congressman Paul's message.

You swear that cloud looks just like his profile.

You manage to steer a converation with a repairman about a faulty light (made in China) to borrowing money from China to Ron Paul for President.

You are a cancer survivor and feel more passionate about trading your yellow Live Strong band for your red and blue Choose Liberty Ron Paul wrist band. (true story with me. I am getting a shirt printed that says... I beat cancer to live. Now I want Ron Paul to be President so I can Live FREE!!!)

You spend your day off with your husband and don't go to the beach but you sit and surf for Ron Paul on the internet while he reads Blowback.

You own a restaurant and need to get menus reprinted but haven't managed to get it done in weeks but have printed tons of Ron Paul flyers.

You seriously are pricing getting your entire vehicle wrapped in Ron Paul graphics.

You are considering getting 2500 car airfresheners custom printed with The White House needs a breath of fresh air... Vote Ron Paul President 2008" and his voting record.... and you just need to decide between pine scent and vanilla!

You filed an extension for your taxes but can't seem to focus on the paperwork because you are surfing Ron Paul information and daydreaming about the end of the IRS.

3. You have a Ron Paul button pinned to your Ron Paul T-shirt!!!
4. In the unlikely event that you find yourself disagreeing with one of Ron Paul's positions, you come to the immediate conclusion that it's your fault for not loving freedom enough.

You may be a Ron Paul junkie if -

-- within an hour of being home from the hospital after major surgery two days before (hysterectomy), you're on the phone with people trying to get donations to auction off for the fundraiser you're having at the end of the month in which Dr. Paul will be in attendance because you're the fundraising chair and don't have anyone to help you out.

-- within 5 hours of getting out of the recovery room after said major surgery, you're asking the nurses about the quality of health care, how they feel about the (stupid) socialized medicine debate which turns into a discussion on Dr. Paul.

You think that spending six hours a day watching Ron Paul videos and reading Ron Paul news is perfectly normal.
You've laughed in someone's face for asking what's bad about the federal reserve.
You even post Ron Paul 2008 advertisements inside your own house.
ronpaul2008.com is your homepage.
The biggest faux pas your houseguests could make is to point at the framed, signed Ron Paul photo over your mantle and ask "Who's that?"
The song "Critical to get Political" has been stuck in your head for three weeks.

I hate thinking about him not winning. Hubby jokes and says other local supporters and I will be in the psych ward if he doesn't.

You've just read all of the signs that you might be a Ron Paul junkie.

You wear a T-shirt to (middle) school with a huge Ron Paul picture on the front... And your global studies teacher chuckles and gives you a big thumbs up in front of about 150 classmates.

You're 15 and you've convinced your own MOTHER to vote for Ron Paul.

You've lost about 4 hours of sleep thinking about Ron Paul and his policies.

You dream about Mitt Romney winning the primaries and you have a hollow feeling inside when you wake up.

You write Ron Paul backwards on the back of your papers in class so when you hold it up to the light, you see it in normal text.

You about pop a blood vessel when a fellow classmate -who doesn't watch the news and likes socialized medicine- tells you that your opinion doesn't matter because you can't vote and that you don't know what you're talking about. You proceed to try to explain fiat currency to them as well as why government subsidies don't work.

Ron Paul 2008 is not your homepage, but is second-closest access on your Firefox browser.

You have an alternate mocking name for EVERY candidate... Except Ron Paul.

Your MSN display picture is a Ron Paul button.

When the owner of the dealership thinks you need to stop talking Ron Paul because it could affect your sales.

When every set of poles you drive past you guestimate if your RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT sign will fit.

When you haven't gotten more than 3-4 hours of sleep a night.

When you eat with one hand while browsing the forums with the other.

When your always scheming on ways to interject into a conversation and lead it to discussing RON PAUL.

I keep picturing Tyron Biggums with a Ron Paul Shirt and Skull cap

...When you are afraid someone might say you're vandalizing something with some kind of Ron Paul sign or banner.

....When an old highschool classmate got a couple of bumper stickers from you and DID vandalize something with them.

....When someone calls you Ron Paul jr.

....When a college professor listens and takes notice when you speak in class because they know you are really smarter about government than they actually are.

....When your grades are like 15-25 points lower than they would normally be because you're trying to figure out how to help Ron Paul instead of studying for a test the next day.

....When you see every new poll result about politics, all 55,487,234 of them.

.....When you have any dreams relating to politics period.

.....If you remember that thing called the constitution.

....When you really walk the talk when you say give me liberty or give me death.

.....When you somehow manage to spend huge portions of your paycheck on promoting Ron Paul.

Your wife called you Ron Paul during sex and you liked it.

You've read an hour of Ron Paul news by the time you finish breakfast, but you don't know the name of your town's mayor because you were never interested in politics before.

You think Johnbama bin Clinton and Rudy W. McRomneysonabee are the same person.

You don't believe 9/11 conspiracy theories, but you listen to Alex Jones anyway for campaign news and are starting to respect him a little bit.

You use your parental experience of saying "why don't you boys go play this outside" to now say "why don't you socialists play this on local level instead of federal"?

You get confused when someone on your Digg.com friends list diggs a story that's not about Ron Paul.

When you saw the $6 mil drop bug on RonPaulGraphs last night you nearly broke your keyboard in two!

You've maxed out your family's campaign donation limit, you've sponsored several hours of the blimp, and you've paid for two local Ron Paul billboards, but your truck has 200,000+ miles on it, all your clothes come from WalMart, and you think Windows Vista is a total waste of money. ;)

Or you don't have to google it because it is automatically delivered to your e-mail via google alerts.

You finally force yourself to get off the computer after spending hours checking your meetup groups, the forums, and blogs, 'one last time'.

You get out of bed, turn on the computer, so that you can send something to a meetup member that you forgot to spend.

You get back into bed and try counting sheep. Every 15 minutes you get mad because you realize you are thinking about the campaign AGAIN and you really don't like how much it has taken over your life.

You wake up in the morning to see if you need to process new meetup members or if any new news has come in over night.

Myself: Well there is one small problem, I plan to ask for a Republican ballot for the primary.

Caller: Oh…

Myself: In the primary I plan to vote for the only candidate on either side who wants to end the war, secure our borders and will handle the illegal alien issue. That candidate is Ron Paul, who is running on the republican side. But I would like to vote for your candidate in the general election.

Every weekend.... at every community event I attend... I put up two Ron Paul signs at the exit gate. Last week Saint Louis held a huge community yardsale in the parking lot of the six flags park... I estimate 5,000+ locals saw the signs.

Saturday at a local farm auction I put two signs up, and maybe 200 or so locals saw them. I usually take them down at the end of the show... one sign was at a intersection out in the middle of no where. Right next to the stop sign was a small rural community park and the name on the park was "Liberty". Decided to leave that sign in the ground...!

* Didn't sleep or eat the night before, the day of, or the night after Super Tuesday (I was a delegate to our state GOP)... we spent the last of our money on gas to get to the state Capitol.

* Help my husband run a radio station that has seen anywhere from 1-1700 listeners during our time there, and which earns me all sorts of mud slung my way, all in the name of trying to provide an oulet for the Paul-faithful.

* My downstairs is taken over by several boxes of signs, and a table is set up by the door with different stacks of slimjim materials for people to come by and replenish their supplies. There are two of the HUGE signs in the garage (they are not out because our yard sign was stolen previously... I'd rather not have the big ones stolen!)

* The laundry always includes at least one Ron Paul shirt.

* Our closet and several boxes are littered with press passes, credentials, name tags, pocket Constitutions, Ron Paul DVDs, and various souveniers from following Dr. Paul across the nation throughout his campaign.

* Our county was largely Pro-Paul and my hubby and I drove across the state to hand out delegate paperwork to people before our state GOP Convention

* Think Aimee Allen is extra hot because she sings about Ron Paul

* Have been personally thanked by Dr. Paul for putting up with my husband, since he is a very... boistrous man. He said this after I'd taken several pictures for people with him.

i fell in love with him when i met him last february and there's no letting up.......
to know him is to love him!

ps carol (his wife) has a my space link (?) - somebody put it up yesterday. could somebody post it if they find it. i think we all need to go there and thank her. dr. paul has said so many times how she's been on him to do this! she deserves our thanks!!!!

I sent her a nice email last year and she sent me back this awesome message



"Dear Trevor, I am glad that I am home long enough this month to reply to your note. Thank you for being a supporter of Dr. Ron Paul and for getting your parents to vote for him. He is a great American and will always tell the truth whether the people are ready to hear it or not. Keep up the good work. Sincerely, Carol Paul"

Or you may be a junkie since he lost the nomination and was treated like and unknown at the Republican convention that you suddenly find yourself not caring to watch any news, any debates or anything except youtube clips of recent interviews by Ron Paul himself.

I could care less anymore people. I'm just thankful my country lets me keep 60% of what I earn and lets me spend the remaining amount while being taxed even on that.

Everything I touch, EVERYTHING I've ever been involved with has crashed like a massive train wreck. Everything I've ever fought for, from the IRS, to fighting the STB in a dirty and corrupt local rail abandonment, to now Ron Paul. So, I'm really not surprised Ron was received the way he was. And yes, I do take it personally. With the stupid bailout package, I recently went broke buying all the silver I could anticipating it to go up again, only to have it crash further. I could just throw my hands up and say the hell with it all. The only thing being awakened from my apathy has done is to put me into the apathy that you can't fight what is so enormous it's impossible to overcome.

The fact is, people are NOT going to stand up to our government until another nation either bombs us into submission or we have a One World government. I prefer the former, but the latter will probably happen. I think of Nazi Germany and how the people ended up having to flee the bullets flying from a mad mans insane quest to rule the world for 1000 years tanked down the toilet. The US is going down, and the fall will either be a hard crash with the world having mercy on its citizens that did nothing (which is doubtful) or the global economy causing a new word currency to be put in place.

I've been in a serious funk since the pork bailout bill too. But we're going to have to pull ourselves out of this and get ready to fight. We'll need each of our soldiers suited up and at the ready. If we go into battle, and half our men are back on the couches, it's going to be rough.

As to the silver, it is very much underpriced right now. As investments were selling off, the funds that included silver and gold were getting sold off too. You want to know the REAL value of silver? Check eBay, the real market. It's going for $16 or so an ounce there.

So buck up. It's not as bad as it feels at the moment. We're no longer alone like we each were two years ago. Power in numbers, so stick with us.
