I would like to comment on what I have come to realize from this revolution and what we must do to continue it. I have been looking into these other parties and there political platforms (with the exception of the blatantly open socialist parties) and have come to the conclusion that they are all fundamentally constitutionalist no matter what they or we may call ourselves. Basically, whether or not you are a member of any of these other parties is irrelevant our universal desire to protect our liberties and our belief in limited government as laid out in our constitution and our strict interpretation thereof is what defines us and makes us different from the two primary parties and there members. It is for us the proverbial line in the sand that we have drawn around ourselves that separates us from them even though it is clear that even amongst ourselves we can still fall into the categories of liberal or conservative (in the traditional sense) or somewhere in between the two. What I believe this boils down however is a matter of personal choice and it these choices that we make in life that define us individually.We also tend not to be as polarized as our counterparts are on the other side of the line. So, whether we consider ourselves individually as conservative republicans, constitutionalist, populist, libertarians or independents we are all fundamentally, at our very core, constitutionalist above all else. Dr. Paul called out to us and we the grassroots laid down our differences willingly and enthusiastically for the sake of liberty and change.

I will sum this up and say it is evident that no constitutionalist, libertarian, populist, or traditional conservative will ever be elected as president of these United States simply because the idea of parties divide us. So if we are to become a formidable force with in the current political arena then we must formally unite these parties. Now, with that being said, we all know that this just isn't going to happen all by its self. So what I am suggesting to all of you is a grassroots push to get these parties to formally unite in the name of liberty and our constitution and set aside our differences at least until we have achieved our goals. It is I fear the only way this revolution can continue, particularly in the event we fail to get Dr. Paul the nomination. There is know reason why we cannot accept each others individuality as human nature and formally unite to fight the encroaching tyranny that we will all soon face, up close and personal. Although I remain optimistic about Dr. Paul's chances on Super Tuesday and onward I am also a realist. We must begin to unite these parties win or lose. Think about it, the infrastructure is already there all we have to do is force there hands.
