I think Ron Paul was not nominated is because he doesn't look presidential. He looks like an old man and by golly this was a beauty contest.
Yes sir, you are correct. I know of at least a half dozen more votes for Paul than Romney. Actually now that I think of it, the number is closer to 10.
Yes we do. You know, I know a few people that wanted Obama to win re-election because of only one thing - gay and lesbian rights. Budgets, foreign policy, entitlements, taxes, etc. - none of that mattered. The only reason they wanted Obama to win is because he has openly supported gay and lesbian rights.
I heard an Obama supporter actually say "...I can afford to take you to lunch now that Obama has been re-elected".
People are seriously retarded.
Then why wasn't he?
I could add a whole lot more to your 10, including me.
Rand Paul 2016 !
2 reasons:
1. The GOP base is hardline on social issues like gay marriage and abortion.
2. The primaries take on the aura of who do you think can win. The GOP base inexplicably lets the MSM pick and choose who that candidate is and label them the front runner and the base follows suit. Never mind that in this particular primary Paul was doing very well and was in the top tier of candidates. He was written off as "unelectable" and the GOP base just took that as gospel.
Either way I don't see how one could read the statement above and find vault in the logic. The GOP is out of step with mainstream America on social issues and will continue to lose until they modernize their social platform.
