QUOTE(NotSarcasticOrCynical @ Jan 30 2007, 11:26 PM) [snapback]280389[/snapback] The LP would probably not be able to. I've been trying to follow it, but from I've read atleast according to the party bylaws they would have to have a majority at the LP convention vote for None of the Above. I don't think Ron Paul could actually be listed like this: Ron Paul-Republican Ron Paul-Libertarian Ron Paul-Constitution on any state ballot anyways because most states ban fusion candidacies. George Phillies is already listed as the LP candidate for 2008. I'm going to send him an email urging him to reconsider and to back Dr. Paul. |

They already have a candidate? Do party members get a say, or is the decision made in some smoke filled room. (and who knows what kind of smoke)

The herd is growing Art. Trust me on that one. QUOTE(SRX @ Feb 14 2007, 02:03 AM) [snapback]283465[/snapback] They already have a candidate?

QUOTE(Kentucky Thinker @ Jan 30 2007, 11:09 PM) [snapback]280383[/snapback] One of the posters from another forum suggested becoming involved in a letter writing campaign to get all 3Pers to stand behind Ron Paul if he follows through with running on the GOP ticket. I drafted a letter and sent it to the CP and LP, but I wonder if these parties would lay down and support him. Of course the Greens, Socialists, etc will not, but what about the Libertarian/Constitutionalist parties? Thank you for bringing this up. I would like to see all the independent voters pushing this also. These non-affiliated voters are the majority of voters these days. Part of the problem is that he will get very little, if any MSM coverage. And the average American doesn't watch C-Span. He needs to get on The Daily Show and Colbert. |

He needs to get on The Daily Show and Colbert. I'm sure most educated voters know who he is, and even that he's running, but I doubt many think he can win. He needs a rich backer to spend a mint in the beginning just to create buzz and momentum. In short order the media will already be too focused. In fact in the democrats case I think they already are. Clinton or Obama. That's it. Welcome to C-Span Sucks and the Sat of Liberty. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
