Don't forget.

The Democratic debate is on April 26th, and the Republican debate of which Ron Paul will be participating, is on May 3rd.

Let's see how he does, and hope he does well.

I think he won that debate, the internet polls say he did, the mainstream media says hie didn't.

He's going to be in the debates on the 15th also. I'm very excited about him running and hopefully we will see much more of him in the future.

Here's the video of the debate, edited to show only ron paul's answers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Hfa7vT02lA

I'm sure if you're interested there are other videos of the other candidates, I already heard it covered on free talk live, so I wasn't.

Anyhow, Ron Paul did win the debate, but the press has been glossing over it by saying things like "ESSENTIALLY no one disagreed with the war" and "Virtually all of the candidates supported the war on terror" or some bs like that. He's not even mentioned in the news coverage on MSNBC (the company that aired the debate) although he won all the online polls on their site.

He'll be in the next debate, and they can't keep ignoring him if he keeps winning debates. yay! He's not my ideal candidate, but he's good enough to make me feel a little hope and excitement. mrgreen 4laugh rofl dramallama eek surprised razz exclaim cheese_whine xd

I really hope he does well, I think that he really has a chance to get out there and have a huge following, if only the media would give him proper air time. But he has brought a major oppertunity for political change just by running and giving people that option. I really hope word spreads about him, anyway...

Can't wait for the debates on the 15th!

he has basically won every debate so far. but of course the mainstream is trying to discredit him by saying tha the "ron paul phsycos" are flooding the polls...when in actuality its been proven you can only vote once on any cell phone! lol

GO DR. RON PAUL!!!

Ron Paul is the only presidential candidate I have seen any bumper stickers or anything for. One guy even has a 'Ron Paul Revolution' poster hung up on the front of his house. It's really kind of strange. Third party candidates always lose, but since he's running as a republican he seems to be doing very well.

Anyway.... I don't watch much tv, so I always seem to miss the debates. Is there a website with the dates of republican and/or democratic debates? A link would be very much appreciated.

Indeed. A Ron Paul vs Hillary Clinton race in 08 would be just too killer. It would be a contest between the best and the worst our country has to choose from. I hope it doesn't happen, though, because I don't trust the American public to be smart enough to realize that Hillary as President would be essentialy the same as burning the Bill of Privleges, and turning the USA into the USSA. Though if it did happen and she lost, it would prove that theres hope for America yet.

Thanks, I'll do that. I'm actually interested in the Democratic party debates too though... Everyone in my class in a democrat, and knowing what the candidates are saying helps out in discussions.

Wait... the parties have websites. *slaps forehead* And so do the candidates. I keep forgetting that everyone and his breakfast cereal has a website.

Anyway, thanks! razz
