    Default Who is Ron Paul???

    In a search of presidential potentials for 2012, I found no mention of RonPaul in most all the articles. I understand that money plays a part in raising public awareness, eg Romney, but has the straw poll no significance? I accept it to be minor , but how disenfranchised has our society become when a long-standing congressman from a conservative state, who consistantly argues for the Constitution and American liberty, receives little to no mention in Republican polls? Is there some skeleton of his I'm unaware of, or is the political machine just afraid of someone reversing the downward spiral of our society caused by government?

    Please enlighten me.

    Ron Paul is a good writer, but a terrible public speaker.
    If ya can't prove it, don't say it.
    Bikes, babes, and beer, it don't get no better than that.

    What are you talking about? Ron Paul is pretty well known and talked about.

    Perhaps he isnt getting talked about because he hasn't provided any notion that he is running in 2012.
    If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin

    Imagine what good we can do if we all joined together, united as followers of Christ - M. Russell Ballard
