More Cash, More Endorsements, More Delegates for Ron Paul
“Jane Roe” of Roe v. Wade Endorses Paul
More Delegates Likely in Louisiana’s Caucuses
State of the Ron Paul Campaign for Tuesday January 22, 2008
The Ron Paul campaign continues to pick up three things: money, endorsements and the scorn of pundits.
It may also looks like the Texan Congressman will be picking up some delegates later today.
It’s been speculated that at least part of the reason Fred Thompson dropped out of the contest today was due to money–or lack of it. And Mike Huckabee’s campaign staff is said to be working for free, also due to a lack of money.
Meanwhile, the Paul campaign collected another $2 million dollars on MLK Day, most of it in the form of small donations (under $50).
Meanwhile, Paul has picked up three endorsements in the last 24 hours.
The first from Gary “Veto” Johnson, former governor of New Mexico.
Yesterday, former New Mexico Governor Gary “Veto” Johnson announced that he is supporting Dr. Paul for president. Governor Johnson is an icon to small-government conservatives and libertarians for his long-standing commitment to the principles of the Founders. You can read our press release here.
The second endorsement came from well-known financial commentator, Donald L. Luskin.
This morning, Ron Paul also received the glowing endorsement of Donald L. Luskin, a prominent financial commentator on CNBC and Chief Investment Officer for Trend Macrolytics LLC. You can read Don’s editorial in National Review about why Ron Paul is right for America here.
And finally, Dr. Paul, an ardent foe of abortion, received an endorsement on the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade of “Jane Roe” aka Norma McCorvey.Fund raising and delegates also look rosy. And Dr. Paul again called for the abolition of the federal income tax today.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackAfter Giuliani’s ‘Super Tuesday’ strategy backfires, there will only be four candidates left — John McCain, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul.
Dr Paul is in this to win. He is the only who can unite the anti-war Left, the fiscal conservative Right and the pro-freedom middle. His consistent voting record on Iraq puts shame to Hillary Clinton’s vote for the war, and Barack Obama’s votes for continuing to fund the war.
shhhh….. can you hear it…???? listen closely…….the revolution is coming……. too many times we have said something has gotta change…
change is coming we are growing. americans are sick and tired of being sick and tired. we have been carrying the world long enough….it’s our turn to restore our republic and to reign in the govt dragon.
FREEDOM….!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don’t let up now…in for the long haul with the cash to prove it.
NEVER GIVE UP!!! JUST KEEP GOING FOR THAT SECOND, THIRD OR FOURTH WIND! BECAUSE JUST WHEN YOU’RE ABOUT TO GIVE UP VICTORY IS ABOUT TO BE CLAIMED
REMEMBER
Mahatma Gandhi:
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
ron paul is going like the diesel engine it is slow but u can not stop it
The mass media either ignores him or tries to destroy him with vicious (and false) smears. The Republican establishment ridicules him and tries to subvert his campaign. The special interest groups abhor him. Yet, he keeps gaining money, support, delegates, and endorsements, while the other candidates drop out like the proverbial flies.
It’s easy to see why: He’s the only candidate bringing any semblance of honesty, integrity, authenticity, and decency into the presidential race.
For a great satire on the president, the mainstream media, and the war on terror, see this YouTube music video from the international award-winning zombie musical feature film, “Song of the Dead.” It’ stars horror movie veteran Reggie Bannister (Phantasm, Wishmaster, Bubba Ho-tep) as the president of the U.S. The filmmaker, Chip Gubera, is giving a share of his profits from DVD sales to the Ron Paul campaign.

I’d love to be a fly on the wall at one of Guiliani’s strategy sessions. “Uh, Rudy, maybe you should stop laughing at Ron Paul. You are generating a lot of blowback.”
I knew Ron Paul was the “right stuff” the first time I heard him speak, over a year ago,in Congress concerning our involvement in the latest war. He knows his history, and he is very intelligent. I wouldn’t even think of changing my vote to someone else. The weakness of both parties is indicated by the shifting support for various “leading” media candidates. Remember the drum rolling over Fred Thompson, or the hero of 9/11, Guiliani? And now, McCain, who suddenly became the new “comeback kid” when he endorsed Lieberman. He too will falter and fade when people begin to understand that he, and his future V.P., have nothing in mind except to extend the war into Iran. McCain, whose big moment in life was Vietnam, and Lieberman, a shameless Zionist, make a good team — that is, if you want to send more of our blood and money into that bottomless cesspool of war and violence that reaches from Palestine to Pakistan.
In the Ron Paul 2008 Campaign word is The Best is Yet to Come! Hold on to your hats folks.
This is bigger then Ron Paul, he presently is the best mouth piece. I am hopeful that many will dusk off the Constitution and understand that to restore our republic to the designers intent will again help us to secure the blessings of liberty.
Our federal goverment is so bloated and wasteful it has no idea where to turn. Department of Education? I thought that was the responsibility of parents and the local community? Department of Energy??? Home many pennies do you think this department saves you at the pump. Department of Homeland Security — I thought this is why we have an Army. Department of Agraculture – dont ya think farmers know how to raise crops??? CIA please, hey Larry … hey Moe. Thank God they turned it over to a General from the Pentigon.
Point is many current federal function should be performed by the States. States are States – not provences. The Federal Government is suppose to be the glue to form a more perfect union. Much of the trouble we are in is because it is not doing what it is suppose to be doing, and doing things it should not.
You may choose to look the other way, but the next time you look at your pay stub you should wonder what value you are getting for the 20% plus that is sucked out of your check. You think you could be making ends meet alittle better if the Federal Government kept their nose out of things that States and local communities should do?
Honestly, do you need a pencil pusher in Washington to come up with what your kid needs to learn at School? Do you have any idea what your kid needs to learn? Do you want your Centeral Inteligency Agency collecting information that our Armed forces does not need? Do you realise we still stock Hellium for WWI style war blimps?
You think a DC pencil pusher can come up with a Health Plan for your family?
Its time to get real. No one but Ron Paul has the backbone to put DC on notice. All the other canidates will pussy foot around and cut deals.
Constitutional Conservatives should also get off their high horse and form a united Front. AFP, Constution party, Libertian, United Tax Payer, Blue Dogs, etc. United we stand — divided we fall. Put you high minded ideas aside and lets get it done.
Ron Paul rEVOLution! Restore our Constitution!
Ron Paul will win the Republican Nomination because he is the best candidate we have seeking the nomination. Ok, we have Mitt who is more liberal than Hillary. Juan McCain will sell every citizen of this country with out a second thought. Huckabee wants to change the constitution to mirror the bible – yeah, he really said that. So, who do we have left that’s sane in this race with solid voting record with great plan to fix our economy. Ron Paul. Oh, I forgot to mention Rudy – he will be dropping out after his loss in Florida next week.
Thank you people for NEVER GIVING UP. Ron Paul would be so proud of you all!
This is certainly exciting stuff. But I’m having a hard time finding any good information on this Louisiana thing… What’s going on with that?
We will NOT give up! Look at Ron Paul; 72 years old and charging through a crazy busy schedule and with a NWO target on his back! He is truly THE MAN to lead this charge, but we are all on the move also, just like personal responsibility, we need to DO EVERYTHING we can to get him elected.
God bless you all!

One thing the Repubs are foregtting: YOU CANNOT BEAT THE DEMOCRAT HILLARY CLINTON!!!! Got it? Understand? You PaulBots keep telling everyone to wake up. NO…..YOU WAKE UP!!! Hillary is the ONLY candidate that can get the government back to working FOR THE PEOPLE! She is going to make sure we ALL get free healthcare insurance! She wants to help the poorer people and give them something too! IT IS TIME FOR ALL WOMEN TO STAND UP TOGETHER AND SUPPORT THIS GOOD AND HONEST WOMAN!!! This is a politician with a big heart and has cried for her cause! She feels what this country needs. She has experiance and she also has a husband that feels our pain! (Also, ummm, wasn’t he a president once too? Guess that experiance might help a little to huh?). You crazy and wacked out PaulBots need to go back to your mom’s basement and to your Star War conventions and let someone run this country that wants to give the citizens something back for us! How stupid is it to start using gold coins to buy stuff? End the IRS? Are you freaking kidding me? Plus you just want to run from Iraq like a bunch of cowerds? YOU WAKE UP! Ron Paul is the biggest idiot in Washington DC. He is ONLY a congressman, Hillary is a SENATOR!!! IF Paultard was so hot he would be a Senator, they are much better and more powerful!!! Hillary knows how to handle power and SHE WILL USE IT!!!!
Wow Michelle,
You must be young, to not remember the people that have miraculously died around the Clintons when they were accused as co conspirators in the White Water Land Deal.
Hillary reeks of Statist Behavior. If you only pay attention to words you will be easily deceived. Action should carry a great deal more weight.
I do not believe her to be neither good nor honest.
Emotions do not make good decisions. They are only for guidance.
Do not be led by gender sympathy.
I vote for virtue, I vote for Ron Paul.
Hillary == Bush III
Do some reading Michelle, Clinton is supported by Big Pharma, Rupert Murdoch, and defense contractors galore. She has never had a consistent position on Iraq and doesn’t have a clue how fiscal policy works.
Iraq is over. Saddam is dead. We “won”. Time to quit pissing money and blood away and come home to take care of our own.
Pull your head out of the sand little sheep.
Michelle,
I’m sorry but maybe Ms Clinton should be running on the far right with the other repubs since last time I knew America voted in the Democrats to STOP the war, not continue it. Why don’t you pack you bags, sign up to the military and go to Iraq so you don’t think were cutting and running. I don’t see your ass there do I????
Its also quite obvious Michelle that you don’t understand economics because last time I knew it was Ron Paul 6-months ago telling America that we are going into a bad recession while Clinton was stating how great the economy was going. Wake up gal.
We all want a woman for president, just not that one!
Isn’t it funny how people like michelle are here bashing Ron Paul when supposedly he’s a nobody and has no support? The only way here candidate could win is to have the Main Stream Media flash her face on every page because she’s not going to win with her message. Its laughable.
— my post didn’t come through in its entirety —
Michelle,
What good will Health Insurance serve when we’re totally embroiled in a Third World War (which will also probably be a nuclear war)? Because if you weren’t aware, that is where the people behind the Council On Foreign Relations (aka international financiers & the Military/Industrial complex aka the puppet masters behind Hillary and every other presidential candidate except Ron Paul and Kucinich) want to take America. Don’t be hypnotised by trivial matters like health insurance, gender power and abortion, etc, there are more serious issues at hand!!
Dr. Paul is the only presidential candidate who is not affiliated with the NWO globalist organization the Council on Foreign Relations. That means he is the only one who will actually be working for the American people, not the elite cabal that is trying to install a one-world fascist government. Some of the others talk the talk, but Dr. Paul is the only one who walks the walk. He is the only one who will end the immoral, illegal wars, and bring all the troops home from around the world, so they can actually DEFEND our country instead of OFFENDING other countries. This will immediately make us much safer, as no one would dare attack us with all our troops here at home. Dr. Paul is the only candidate who understands the Constitution and how it has been dismantled by the current administration. I like to think of Dr. Paul as the “anti-Bush” and I believe that President Paul will undo all the destruction that Bush & Co. have done to our beloved America. Ron Paul is also the only candidate who has a complete understanding of economics and monetary policy, and knows how to rescue our collapsing dollar and economy. IMHO, there is no other viable choice for America right now. We must make Dr. Paul our next president, or by 2012 we will not recognize our country. He is the only one who can rescue us from the Orwellian nightmare we are currently experiencing. To vote for anyone other than Ron Paul would be insane!
What more can I add to this fervent discussion except Ron Paul today Jan 22 won 1/2 of Louisiana Delegates – and will probably pick up the other 1/2 come the primary day in February… but 1/2 are *his* now and forever in this run for presidential nomination…
SPIN THAT FOX… you $%*# – we wont see this on the main news because Fox and MSNBC will continue to bury ron in the media – does that not bother *everyone* to know you are being manipulated by the media…
Ron Paul should get the good publicity especially since they keep dumping bad publicity on him….
Its interferring with Presidential Campaigns and that is HERESY in our free country of USA except for the COPORATE FASCIST CONTROLLED MEDIA…
Ron Paul is truly the man. I hope I have his energy at 72.
Michelle Says:
“End the IRS? Are you freaking kidding me?”
You must work for the IRS.
After my man Fred dropped out – I guess I’m now on this Ron Paul band Wagon. I just want a stack of veto pens and from what I can tell Ron will deliver that. All the “issues” don’t amount to much if we run out of money.
I’m pro-choice but I am more anti-war and anti-empire. Ron Paul is the only candidate who is for an immediate pull-out of all troops. There is no way to justify all the killing of innocent Iraqi people by the USA. To me, this is MUCH more important then Paul stating he supports over-throwing roe v wade and giving states the right to make laws about abortion.
Michelle is crazy, Hillary is not offering FREE HEALTH CARE…she’s offering MANDATED INSURANCE for all…which mean everyone has to pay someone, and no doubt that’s why she receives so much money from the health care insurance industry. Welcome aboard Luke, always nice to have another conservative aboard!
Michelle,
From your post is seems that you support muggings and killings. If you would do a search and really read the information regarding Bill and Hillary you will get a big eye opener. You do realize how many times Bill was accused of acosting women and how Hillary was involved in inside trading don’t you? You do know that giving the government too much control over people is stepping into the direction of communism don’t you? Do you want more people to stop thinking for theirself because they have ceded their rights to a government that does not have their interests at heart? Do you realize that the president can not do the things that she is proposing, only congress can?
Robyn
Michelle said “good and honest woman” – Thanks! That made me laugh first thing in the morning. I needed that.
Maybe you should read The Strange Death of Vincent Foster, Michelle? When you blindly follow your candidate because she is a woman (from your comments I take it that is a major reason for your support without looking deeper into her background, you not only denegrate future your sex, but also your intelligence.
Michelle,
Great piece of satire. I knew you were joking when you mentioned Hillary “crying for her cause.” Keep up the good work!

Why I support Ron Paul:

The most corrupt politician 2007
www dot judicialwatch dot org/judicial-watch-announces-list-washington-s-ten-most-wanted-corrupt-politicians-2007
People have the right to make informed decisions. I believe that Ron Paul is truly the voice of liberty and freedom at this time. As the world watches on, many of us hope that Ron Paul will be elected to fight the problems of centralized, concentrated power. I wish I could vote for Ron Paul, however I am a Canadian.
God Bless America

Yeah Hillery LoL just what we need a cry baby. I am sure the worlds leaders think that is a sign of strength, haha I know thats not how I want my leader being viewed. Then some I guess want us to revert to a Monarchy of Clinton and Bush the exact thing our forefathers fought and died to prevent. If Billery really cared about the principals of what America was founded on she wouldn’t be running at all. But for the elitists having some power is not enough they have to always grasp for more. I think more people need to take some time and get educated about her backers and what her true motivations are. The truth is out there just take some time and look.

She obviously knows nothing about the processes of our governing body..you fool,,CONGRESS WRITES LAWS,THEY ARE THE 2nd in chain of command after the president,The SENATE can only act upon law that congress writes and approves FIRST,,,GOLD backed dollars would let you buy gas for $1.00 again,milk for $1.29 gal,,Economics must not be your strong point either,you obviously only look at the person not the policy they endorse..
Michelle,,where did you NOT get educated on politics? You absolutely are clueless of the processes of our government,,,If you want to know who the Clintons are,look into the incident in Mena Arkansas where the Clintons were involved in drug trafficking that resulted in 2 kids being murdered for trying to expose them,,,Michelle,go ahead and waste your vote on another candidate that will work harder than the current president to sell off your freedom for personal gain,,,Hillary “crying” and kissing babies and all that shit,is just a cover up,,she is an evil bitch that has been flying a flag of deception at her rallys.She is practicing black magic to move her campaign,,at her NH rally,her flag that was on the left of the stage has all the stars upside down,,(pentagram),this was a tactic used by Nazi Germany to brainwash their masses,it worked,they ran to the gas chambers without even thinking about it.
Michelle,you need to get educated..for real.
In all the years Bush has been a president he has been able to spend more money then all previous presidents combined. He has brought tension in the world by going after one country after another. Now America even has to borrow money from countries like China. The dollar has become worse. How can the candidates, except RP, still talk about more wars i.e. with Iran while that will bring down America even more.
All the money Bush spend could have gone to Health Care, Universities and he could have fed even homeless people.
Huckabee should join Scientology so he can talk to Tom Cruise while Hillary and Obama are acting like kids throwing fire at each other, while the only one who warned all about this stuff is kept mostly out of the media.
You and I may not agree with all the things Ron Paul stands for but of all the candidates he, in my opinion, is the one who can lead America out of this depression.
But as some of the other people who made a comment I don’t live in the US so I can only hope you guys will make the right decision.
Cheers and good luck from the Netherlands.
You guys have wasted a lot of time on “Michelle”. Analyze the comments carefully and you will see that this person is not who they represent themselves to be.
This person uses derogatory terms such as “Paulbots” and “Paultards”. These terms are typically only used by people who have done a great deal of researching Ron Paul. Somebody assumed that she is young because of her lack of knowledge about Hitlary and Slick Willy’s scandals. If she is posting here and trying to undermine our candidate, I think she would know a great deal more about their history…it’s not difficult to find. Having said that, let’s go on with the assumption that she is young. Young people nowadays do not use terms such like “wacked out”! I’m in my 40’s and I stopped using “wacked out” years ago. Also, this person is obviously pretending to be uneducated with countless grammatical errors…as if someone who is trying to come off as a young person but is seriously out of touch with today’s lingo. It reminds me of the undercover police officers that are at protests wearing the hip “new” clothing and trying to blend in with the crowd. But underneath the hip “gangsta” hats and cargoes are receding hairlines and Glock pistols and “cops” in their thirties and forties waiting for an opportunity to incite a riot in order to justify police brutality. So obvious!
As I write this, spel check is constently riminding me of the werds I mispeled by undrlining them. Those misspellings are probably intentional. This was written by a subvertive person trying to generate arguments on this blog…they succeeded. Pay no attention to these hirelings…just ignore them as I will do from now on after this post. Godspeed to the good doctor.
I am in in the U.S. because my parents country, Cuba, was lost to a tyrant and a stupid population. For the last forty years, the Cuban community in the U.S. has been fighting to restore democracy and freedom in their land with the countless promises of every president since LBJ. We have supported the Republican party ad nauseum and have received nil. And finally we were duped again by another self-proclaimed dictator, George W. Bush and friends. Dr. Paul has opened our minds to reason and truth and courage. You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. You take the blue pill and the story ends.
You wake in your bed and you believe
whatever you want to believe.
You take the red pill and you stay
in Wonderland, and I show you how
deep the rabbit-hole goes.* Morpheus(Dr. Paul) Neo(Paulbots)
Ron Paul has also been endorsed by Peter Schiff, president of Euro Pacific Capital, Inc., who wrote: “Ron Paul is the real deal, a true statesmen and citizen politician in the traditions envisioned by the framers of our Republic.”
