But Obama gets number one, because the GOP votes are fragmented.

When it comes to economic issues, President Barack Obama topped a field of possible opponents in a recent unscientific online survey but Republicans collectively got more support.
Obama was favored by 35 percent of those who responded to the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal Business Pulse survey between April 26 and May 3.
But the Republican candidates together got the support a majority of those who participated, led by Ron Paul (19 percent), Mitt Romney (18 percent) and Donald Trump (12 percent).
Newt Gingrich got 4 percent and Sarah Palin got 3 percent.

Hell, he better get the #1 spot. He's the only one who is advocating an elimination of income taxes and doing away with Fed monetary inflation. The ultra wealthy don't have to worry much about inflation, and most of their income is through capital gains, not income taxes.

If the Left accuses Ron Paul of kissing ass of the uber-rich, this puts a complete stop to that theory. The Middle Class would thrive off sound money and zero income taxes.

Exactly. Leftists (I admit, I used to be one of them *shame*) always berate middle and lower class conservatives/libertarians as "voting against their own best interests." But quite frankly no one stands to benefit more from Dr. Paul's plan than the lower and middle classes.
