Ron Paul can't run third party because he's all but promised he wouldn't, but nothing would stop Rand Paul from running third party.

Sorry I have to go with Sanford 2012.
He's SC's governor so he has a much stronger chance of being elected than someone than has not even been in politics before. And I feel confident he would do a great job.
But Sanford or Rand would be awesome, and I would support either of them just as much as I have Ron.

how about no political career?
rand doesn't have 1/1000th of the chance ron paul would have, which would be hard enough.
c'mon. just focus on the task at hand.
What do people not understand about 3rd party runs?
The Polls will never show the campaign @ 10%+, so there will be no debates, no publicity and no popular movement.
It's the ultimate exercise in futility. Running in a media vacuum.
Hi!
+100 that's what i'm hoping for if Paul doesn't get it...as a matter of fact i've already expressed my feelings to Sanford late last year.Sorry I have to go with Sanford 2012.

I think Rand Paul would make a great a speaker and champion of the message, and should aid Ron in His book tour and write a book of his own
titled "Son of the Revolution - Growing up Free" by Rand Paul

not until the nomination is called its not.
even if things seem unlikely we have months to go and thats a long time in the political scheme of things. you never know what could happen between now and then to tip things in our favor.
no matter how slim the chance, there is still a chance until the nom is called.
over it what regards?
an election ends when somone is elected... so no it's not over
If you want to give up on the nod, that's fair, but the more work we do the more influence we have at the RNC and that's still a far greater goal even if it doesn't get the media attetnion we'd like at the end of the day.
No matter what we won. those who feel discouraged cause we lost the battles of vanity of being declared a winner are ebing weak. We have won hearts and minds, and while the media won't talk about that, it's a victory we must hold close to our hearts and fuel us to win that next heart, and that next mind until there is none left to win.

The ultimate minority is the individual. Protect the individual from Democracy and you will protect all groups of individualsRightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas JeffersonI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
- Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear
Since he didn't endorse ROn Paul one much think he's playing the politics game so would run

Sanford looks to be gearing up to run. He's making the rounds on TV and in the newspaper columns. Setting this up so that he gets his name out and getting to know the people in the MSM. He is a very good retail politician with high personal likeability, meeting with the people everywhere during his first run for congress when he went from and * for support to winning the whole thing against the presumptive GOP designee. This will definitely help in Iowa and New Hampshire. The only thing against his chances is that he is a true conservative, and the GOP platform helping big business, high spending, bigger government is at odds with his. Also he could a difficult time with the neocons over the war and building an empire.
RP should use his delegates to push for Sanford to speak at the convention. Not the keynote speaker because Sanford's views are not like the neocon views that currently dominate the platform but something significant. where he can speak about smaller government.
Check out Rand Paul speaking at the Montana GOP kick-off:

2012 -> 20 + 12 = 32 | 23
2012 -> 20 + 1 + 2 = 23
sorry, couldn't help it.
Shut the hell up in 2008 until after the Convention
Screw the big two! Let's all vote Libertarian.
fair enough, mods can you please delete this thread?
p.s., Just noticed this... why are the stars on the GOP symbol upside down?
How about closing it?
