Why isn't Ron Paul doing well?

In my experience, the caucus system does more to skew the results in the frontrunners favor, marginalizing all other candidates.

In my Minneapolis precinct, Ron Paul was roughly tied with Romney in the precinct straw poll (Huckabee and McCain had very few supporters) but due to the way delegates are chosen Romney received a vast majority of the delegates. If anything, that tells me that Paul is underrepresented by his delegate count in caucus states, to say nothing of winner take all primary states. The primary system is screwed up, but then again so is the entire two party system.

I am, and I think most people are, willing to listen to even the most out there ideas...but only if they are backed up by a convincing and reasonable argument.

If you feel the arguments haven't been convincing and reasonable, then you're a liar when you say you're willing to listen.

QFT. :thumbsup:

Coming from a sycophant like you, that's high praise for Paul.

OK seriously, you've been posting here for a while...how often do Pabster and I agree on something? Maybe the fact that we're able to get together on the idea that Ron Paul is a hoser would suggest that you might want to rethink how awesome he is.

Come on Rainsford, you appearently don't get it... or you're just not willing to listen... or you're a liar.

It couldn't possibly be that you've seen seen RP's presentation, heard the various arguments, and reasonably decided that the ideas are shite... nahhh... that's not it. So just give it up Rain, you know you're one of the 96% who just don't understand!

duh. 😀

Or it simply reinforces my feeling that both Democrats and Republicans have their heads up their asses. They might smell slightly different, but they're both still full of shit.
