While I would love 2 C Ron Paul win. I know that voting 4 him will get Obama reelected. If we split our votes between him & Romney we will be giving Obama 4 more years 2 destroy our economy.
i for one don't buy into that tired and old bs cliche about voting for him only gives obama a vote and if all the people who thought that would vote for him there is no doubt in my mind ron would have more votes than either obama and romney by a large margin

Paul doesn't have the support of the military. Not even close. I agree with him on many things, the 2nd amendment being one of them. But like many Americans there are some stances of his that prevent me from supporting him. Very few people are single issue voters. As JohnD13 pointed out, you'll never find anyone that you can agree 100% with, 100% of the time, so you search for the candidate that agrees with what you feel are your key, fundamental issues, and that then also supports most of your other issues as well. The reason Paul doesn't have the support of the military specifically is primarily his isolationist viewpoints. As I've stated here in other threads, Ron actually breaks my heart a little bit. He is so incredibly right on so many critical things that it's tragic to discover that he differs with me on fundamental issues that don't allow me to support him. I wish that weren't so.
Perhaps you should read them more carefully yourself. And you should learn how to distinguish between a statistic, an empirical fact and rhetoric. That isn't popularity, it's highly subjective and it leaves out several key facts. You also don't understand rules on donations from military members. I'm retired military. So is my wife. And I still work military contracts, so I'm well aware of how military members think because I'm in close contact with them on a regular basis. Don't try to lecture others on topics that you have little knowledge of. You might make yourself look foolish.perhaps you should take a look at these figures
