Ron Paul Wins New York Straw Poll
Ron Paul has won the most recent straw poll. This one is in New York, where he convincingly bested Mitt Romney with a 31.9% to 22.3% finish.
Although the straw poll is nothing super significant in the republican race for the nomination, it definitely helps Ron Paul get some much needed momentum. Not only that, but Ron Paul winning the straw poll in New York shows the tremendous grassroots support he has all over the country.
You can read more here or read the excerpt from "The State Column" below:
Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX), a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, clobbered Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum in a New York straw poll Thursday night, according to a post from the Facebook page of the Amherst GOP Presidential Caucus.
Mr. Paul won the Amherst GOP straw poll with 31.9 percent of the votes (30 votes). Mr. Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator, finished in second place with 26.6 percent of the votes (25 votes). Mr. Romney, a former Massachusetts Governor, took third place with 22.3 percent of the votes (21 votes) and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich finished at the bottom of the Republican pack with 19.2 percent of the votes (18 votes).
The New York straw poll was not Mr. Paul’s first straw poll victory in the 2012 presidential race nor is it likely to be his last. Nearly defeating Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-MN) in the Ames straw poll in August of last year, the Texas congressman’s numerous straw poll victories have become an important part of his campaign to become the next Republican presidential nominee.

Ron Paul: Let The People Spend The Money, Not The Government
After a strong debate in Arizona, Ron Paul followed with a strong interview with John King on CNN. If you want to help bring back the economy, let the people spend the money, not the government.
As the debate went on, it was evident that there was really no difference between Romney, Santorum or Gingrich. They label themselves conservatives, when in fact they all voted for increased spending. Santorum contradicted himself a couple of times, saying that he was against government interference in decision making about how people want to live their lives, then says that contraception should be outlawed and that there should be a federally funded alternative to planned parenthood.
Romney, Santorum and Gingrich are all scare tacticians and love to use fear mongering to scare the American people that it's necessary to keep killing American soldiers against an almost invisible threat in Iran. Of course, if the American people don't wake up now and see through all this bullshit, they never will. Ron Paul actually uses logic in his foreign policy take and backs it up with historical information, for example the fact that we didn't have to fight a war with the Soviet Union regarding their nuclear weapons. We communicated with the Soviet Union peacefully and no war was necessary.
Of course, if the American people don't wake up now and see through all this bullshit, they never will.

Veterans March For Ron Paul Is A Huge Success (Video)
The Veterans March for Ron Paul in Washington D.C. turned out to be a huge success. Thousands of people showed up to march in the streets of the nation's capital to show their support to the only candidate that cares about them and their well being.
Ron Paul gets more military donations than all other GOP candidates and President Obama combined! This fact speaks volumes, ladies and gentlemen.
You have all these other candidates, such as Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum talking about waging more wars, such as attacking Iran and a host of other nonsense. The fact of the matter is that the American people and the Armed Forces in the United States are sick of fighting and all the bloodshed that seems to have no other purpose than corporate interest and greed.
Listen to the men and women that fight for us. Listen to what they have to say. They are the ones that put their lives in danger, day in and day out. There is a reason why they are supporting Ron Paul.

Voters Believe Santorum Is A Candidate Like Them
I can't believe what I read on Yahoo this morning. Apparently, Republican voters feel that Rick Santorum is "one of them." The full Yahoo article can be found by clicking here.
Here is what one Ohio resident said about Santorum (excerpt from the Yahoo article):
This would lead me to believe that the people supporting Santorum are just as crazy as he is. If Santorum were president, he would have no problems waging another undeclared war and attack Iran, bringing much more damage and bloodshed to this country. The guy has absolutely no legitimate economic plans. He has no idea how it is to run the country, given his radical policies. It seems like the reason these people are connecting with Rick Santorum is because there is obviously some kind of religious attraction towards Santorum. The same people supporting him most likely hate homosexuals, are not for freedom and liberty and are just plain uneducated.
Don't get me wrong, I do agree with Santorum on some issues. For example, his proposal to cut corporate tax rates to 17.5% from the current 35%. This proposal could potentially lead to job growth. But what good is job growth if your currency is declining? What is the purpose of increasing jobs when in reality, inflation is a daily struggle and will not be fixed unless the Federal Reserve is fixed. However, on most vital issues, Santorum is just insane. He is a guy that is pro-censorship, meaning that in his ideal world, the internet would be completely censored because, according to him, the internet "has a lot of bad" and needs a fix. Santorum is anti-freedom and anti-civil liberties. He supports the NDAA, which Obama signed into law. It basically gives the U.S. Military the authority to arrest, interrogate, torture and jail any American citizen on U.S. soil who commits "belligerent" act(s) against the U.S. government (the term "belligerent" is absolutely ambiguous). Not only that, but the President has the authority to murder the U.S. citizen that was termed to have committed a "belligerent" act against the United States. As president, Rick Santorum would outlaw gay marriage, outlaw contraception, outlaw abortion and a slew of other procedures. Rick Santorum always voted to increase the debt ceiling. What's worse is that Santorum is playing the "small government" ticket right now, and the people are buying it. Does Santorum sound like a guy that would support small government, given that he would preferably outlaw the above?
Rick Santorum is as corrupt as they get. In 2006, Santorum was unanimously held as the most corrupt Senator in the United States. As a result, he lost his 2006 re-election bid to Democrat Bob Casey Jr. by a margin of 41%-59%. Rick Santorum is also a politician that doesn't follow the laws he is supposed to abide by while serving the people. In 2004, it was discovered that Santorum was living in Virginia as well as Pennsylvania while being a Senator for Pennsylvania, which is clearly against the Constitution. You can read more about the 2004 incident here.
The only thing Santorum has going for him these days is that he shares his family life with the voters. People seem to love the fact that a presidential candidate like Santorum talks to openly about his family values and personal values, basically drawn in to that instead of stepping outside the box for a moment and realize who they are voting for.
Here is what one Ohio resident said about Santorum (excerpt from the Yahoo article):
"Maybe I think he is more like me," said David Diyani, 58, a pastor at the Vineyard Church in Etna, Ohio. "I feel like I can relate to him."Oh, man. Do people really think like this? When we have all these problems going on around the world and in this country including the economic crisis, crisis overseas with the wars overseas and other national conflicts, people decide to support a guy who is "down to earth" or who is "more like them." It's quite obvious that Rick Santorum promotes bloodshed and wars; Just looking at his foreign policy solidifies this claim. While Santorum was a U.S. Senator for Pennsylvania, Santorum largely supported the foreign policies that George Bush implemented while he was in office.
This would lead me to believe that the people supporting Santorum are just as crazy as he is. If Santorum were president, he would have no problems waging another undeclared war and attack Iran, bringing much more damage and bloodshed to this country. The guy has absolutely no legitimate economic plans. He has no idea how it is to run the country, given his radical policies. It seems like the reason these people are connecting with Rick Santorum is because there is obviously some kind of religious attraction towards Santorum.

Ron Paul on CNN's State of the Union
Ron Paul interview on CNN's State of the Union.
Hilarious questions, some of them are. I really hope reporters will finally stop questioning Ron Paul's run for office. No, he won't stop running. Yes, he still has a chance to win. With all that is going on (Santorum starting to win, Gingrich's support starting to dwindle, Romney's support slipping), Ron Paul has a better chance than ever.
Keep preaching freedom Dr. Paul, keep preaching.

Ron Paul Attracts Large Crowd in SeaTac and Spokane, Washington
Not a surprise here, rock star Ron Paul draws another large crowd in Washington, the state he is expected to win.
American people should look at these people and question why it is so many people are so passionate about Ron Paul and his plans for the country. Ron Paul is the governmental and political personification of honesty and common sense. It's time to wake up, America.
