I think anyone who believes Romney’s “guarantees” will find that, once again, he has been lied to and duped.

“We Americans are the ultimate innocents. We are forever desperate to believe that this time the government is telling us the truth.” - Sydney Schanberg.

I have no idea how you could read that entire piece and think that author is “desperate to believe that this time the government is telling us the truth.”

“Mitt, we know you want very much to be President of the United States.”

Perhaps not, though. Perhaps “the plan” is another four years of Obama, which is why Romney is the “chosen one”: He’d lose. It also explains why the GOP, the media, and the unseen PTB hate Ron Paul so much: He’d win.

That makes absolutely no sense. No one hates Ron Paul because “he’d win”.

I think it’s quite possible that, were Ron Paul to run Libertarian, that party would see election results considerably better than anything previously achieved.

Oh? And what would that be? 1.7%?

But this is not, in my opinion, what is important.

Well I should sure as hell hope not.

What is important is the spread of ideas. Ron Paul has publicly reiterated the “power of an idea whose time has come,” and as a propagator and promoter of the freedom philosophy, he has been wildly successful. In this sense, he has already won.

Uh. Isn’t that like…exactly what the girl in the video in the article said?

His campaign, sites like Mises.org combined with the internet, and all the newly-spawned libertarians kicking intellectual ass every day, are turning what were once a few smoldering embers into a raging forest fire.

I’m both optimistic and pyromanic.

Is this supposed to be a joke? Are you mocking some over-the-top Ron Paul-sympathetic writer that I’m unaware of? Or are you just mocking us?
