Contact Ron Paul campaign ASAP..

Dianne · 03-07-2008, 10:03 AM

If someone has the ability to contact Ron Paul personally, I would really appreciate you putting this in front of him. I for one am not ready to give up the fight.

Paul always said this campaign is about his supporters, not him. In that case, Paul should allow us to make the decision as to whether we are ready to support him as a third party candidate.

Paul should send a survey to everyone who has donated to his campaign with the following questions:

If I run as a third party candidate, will you commit to:

1) Donating to the campaign

2) Volunteer in support of the campaign with the same enthusiasm as you have thus far.

3) Recruit at least 10 others' to join the Paul third party run, who in turn will recruite 10 more and so on.

If I do run a third party campaign, who would you choose to be my running mate:

____ Barr

____ Goldwater

____ Other __________________________ Name

RP is not running as an independent. He has told us this, and I take him at his word.

Ron Paul has listed the reasons why he will not run as a third party candidate and they are very plausible. We have come this far and it is NOT over. So please listen to him when he says a third party run is not feasible at this time.

Complete lie. He never said he would not run as an independent. A message after Super Tuesday that wasn't written by Ron Paul said there would be no third party run. He has never said anything about an independent candidacy, other than that he has "no plans" to do it.

Stop spreading disinformation until you bring us an actual quote from Ron Paul saying he will NOT run as an independent candidate.

This is a pretty good form to directly e-mail to the campaign. Thanks, Dianne.

I think we the grassroots deserve a clarification as to the intent of HQ.

aksmith · 03-07-2008, 11:10 AM

I'm not sure why we need to be kicked directly in the teeth to take a hint.

Message from HQ: F U, you are on your own. And don't forget to send money and buy the good Dr's book while we're bailing on you.

Seems pretty clear to me. Didn't anyone actually LISTEN to the video?

Who says he'd have to run Independent?

I was kinda hoping for a Libertarian run!

I guess it all depends on what Ron Paul considers third party.
