Ron Paul within striking distance of Obama, has Manilow support

New Reuters Ipsos Poll has Paul as the best competitor vs Obama - http://ronpaul2012.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9b8827e2d9e8f8bf88bfe6fcb&id=80afc43dce&e=1f45cc75c4

the latest Reuters Ipsos poll puts Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul within striking distance of President Obama, while Grammy-winning musician Barry Manilow sings Paul's praises. Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul remains a significant Libertarian voice among the Republican Party's presidential contenders, and the latest Reuters Ipsos poll demonstrates Dr. Paul's strong appeal against President Obama. “Our campaign has been gaining momentum for some time now, and this is yet another poll that clearly proves how competitive we are versus the President” Ron Paul 2012 Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton said, according to FITS News. “Dr. Paul is gaining ground in poll after poll, affirming that people are looking for real change instead of the status quo they are being offered from the establishment.” This message of "real change" does not appear to be an appeal to a fringe audience of Libertarians, as the 2012 presidential election is increasingly shaping up to be a matter of one ideological direction versus another. Within the pendulum-swinging environment, potentially toward solutions in smaller government, Congressman Paul could have much to gain. In fact, Dr. Paul has found a voice in Grammy-winning musician Barry Manilow. “I like him. I like what he says, I do. I like what he says. I think he’s solid,” Mr. Manilow told The Daily Caller, in a report released on Wednesday. “I agree with just about everything he says. What can I tell you?” But Ron Paul still faces an uphill battle among the Republican establishment, many of whom reject his anti-militarism position, as reflected in the raucous boos he received at the GOP debate on Monday night in Tampa. Texas Governor Rick Perry continues to receive the leading support from the Republican faithful, although Bloomberg reports that many Republicans reject his views. This will likely lead to trouble among Independents, a population that may find Dr. Paul's views of interest.

Are Republican Presidential Candidates Just Pretending To Have Christian Values?

Featuring A smear attempt on Ron Paul...I'm not surprised.

Nice try....Matthew 5 and the parable of the Good Samaritan are interactions between people. Not with the government being the mediator of "compassion". Charity is when you voluntarily do something for another. When the government is "compassionate" with your money, it's called Theft.
But yes, I do think all the candidates (besides Ron Paul) invoke the name of Christ in order to gain votes.

Ron Paul won the California Straw poll taking in just over 44% of the vote. I believe this makes him 2 for 5 in winnings with 1 second place finish in Iowa - 3 of 5 1st or 2nd place finishes in straw polls..more then any other candidate.


Paul bests nearest competition by 15 percent
LAKE JACKSON, Texas– At today’s California state Republican fall convention, 2012 Presidential candidate Ron Paul won its presidential straw poll, picking up 45 percent of the ballots cast.
“This win is just the latest indication of our campaign’s growing momentum,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton. “Americans are sick and tired of the status quo and Dr. Paul offers a real change, and hope for a free and prosperous future.”
