Ron Paul surging in Iowa, leads in latest PPP poll

Ron Paul is having a late surge in Iowa, taking the lead in the latest PPP poll:

“2012 GOP Presidential candidate Ron Paul is leading Iowa according to a new PPP poll released yesterday evening, with 20 percent of the vote. The survey has Paul also leading among Independents and Democrats with 30 percent of the vote, more than twice that of the nearest challenger.”

“…This comes on the heels of a CNN/Time poll which showed Ron Paul strong against President Obama. Highlights from the poll include Paul besting Obama 47 to 46 percent among those 65 years and older, said to be the most reliable voters.  Paul also beats Obama among persons who reside in rural areas 52 to 44 percent and with Independents 48 to 47 percent.”

 

Ron Paul & Mitt Romney Leading in Iowa

Ron Paul and Mitt Romney are trading the lead poll position in Iowa’s upcoming caucus, depending on which poll you look at it or depending on the day, it’s going to come down to the wire!

“After months of volatility, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul remain the front-runners in Iowa for the third week in a row with the state’s Republican caucus just five days away.”

Ron Paul’s interview on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace

When asked about his goals in running for president, Paul repsonded: “I’m in it to win it…As president I would reduce the power of government, I wouldn’t seek it. I would never take the power from Congress…The Constitution was written to restrict the government, not to restrict the people, now it’s turned around. We use government to restrict the people in all manner. So I would like to reverse that.”

I like this yard sign a lot, nice design, great message. You can buy the sign over at RonPaulSwag.com. There’s also similarly designed bumper stickers at their site. FYI I’m making no money from this, just like the design.

Ron Paul is Republican front runner

Ron Paul’s support is surging, putting him solidly in position as a Republican front runner. Yesterday Paul took second in the Ames Straw poll in Iowa, only 152 votes short of Michelle Bachman (who is from Iowa).

28.55% (4823 votes) – Michele Bachmann
27.65% (4671 votes) – Ron Paul
13.58% (2293 votes) – Tim Pawlenty
9.81% (1657 votes) – Rick Santorum
8.62% (1456 votes) – Herman Cain
4.25% (718 votes) – Rick Perry (write-in)
3.36% (567 votes) – Mitt Romney
2.28% (385 votes) – Newt Gingrich
0.41% (69 votes) – Jon Huntsman
0.21% (35 votes) – Thaddeus McCotter

This is a dramatic shift from 2007 when Paul took 5th at the Iowa straw pool. Ron Paul has been taking 1st or second in all major straw polls this year. Earlier this year Paul took 2nd in the New Hampshire straw poll, first at the conservative CPAC straw poll, first at the RLC, the Louisiana leadership straw poll.

Paul & Kucinich on Libya, empire and auditing the fed

As if it wasn’t bad and illegal enough to sneak the US into an unconstitutional, undeclared war, Dennis Kucinich explains that the way Obama forced the US into the Libyan war and the way he has executed the US action in the war “….exceeds even the wars powers act…it exceeds the UN mandate.” Kucinich states that “…we have a presidency right now that is dangerously close to being an imperial presidency because what the white house is doing essentially is nullifying the role that Congress has.”

Ron Paul wins CPAC straw poll, receives 30% of vote

Ron Paul 2012! Gotta love how the Faux newswoman had to throw in a dig claiming that the “story is not Ron Paul winning again for the second year in a row, but they are pointing to the strength of Mitt Romney coming in second place again with 23%, Mitt Romney, that’s what the CPAC advisors are telling me today”. Since when is the second place winner the story of any election? Ron Paul coming in first [again] isn’t a story worth telling? They’re already pulling out the anti Ron Paul spin…good let them be shocked and unprepared again when the Ron Paul revolution comes out with even more supporters and a louder voice during the next election.

Paul has a real chance of beating Obama, few other Repubs do. The difference is that Paul is for real and will use his influence the way he says he will. His mouth is actually in alignment with his actions. If you haven’t already figured this out, study his voting record. Paul always votes on principle, always upholds the Constitution and always uses his influence to promote liberty for the individual without seeking personal gain. Could America possibly have a more honest, principled candidate for president?
