The Federal government will collapse, says libertarian politician

This man is a bit religious but he has it right. The FED won’t be alive that much longer. When Dr. Paul becomes president I’m sure NH and all other states will end up seceding which can be a great start moving towards a voluntary society.

Pretty dang sure NH is not gonna secede. Given Romney’s polling at over 30% there…

That’s wrong. Dr. Paul has the clear lead last time I checked. He will win either way thanks to the FSP.

Please, do tell

Those polls are biased and often censored since the MSM is afraid of Dr. Paul and everything he stands for. Come to NH and see how libertarian-minded the population is here. I see signs for RP everywhere in NH. I see signs for Romney, Gringrinch and Huntsman occasionally.

That’s what they said in 2008 (“the polls are underestimating him”). They ended up being rather accurate. Unless there is something different happening this time - which might be the case, since he’s much more of a realistic threat this time around. But I see no new reason to think this in particular.

The FSP was in infancy during that time. There were less then 400 libertarians in NH at the start of 2008 if I recall correctly. Now you have nearly 1000 in NH (check the FSP website) who will vote for Dr. Paul next week.

Are you willing to stand and recant if Paul loses and is within 5% of the latest NH poll before the election?

Yes but it won’t happen. Come to Manchester. You’ll see signs for Dr. Paul everywhere including banners overlooking the highway near the mall. I see hardly any signs for Romney in the city at all.

With all due respect, that is probably the most banal statement ever made. It’s like a headline that reads “Dog bites man”.

Watch the vid. He makes a compelling case. Either way a collapse of the FED would be the perfect first step towards a voluntary society.

The tweets are likely from young people, some of whom may be posting multiple times. I’m not sure these are the most reliable caucus goers.

OK yes Romney is in the lead but Dr. Paul is second and has a huge wave of support. How do you know these straw polls aren’t rigged?

Here is an article featuring a few devoted Paul supporters in NH: http://www.npr.org/blogs/itsallpolitics/2012/01/02/144591595/voters-size-up-ron-paul-in-the-n-h-town-where-his-campaign-began

Dr. Paul’s supporters WILL come out and vote next week. Romney’s I’m not so sure.

  1. They’re not straw polls

  2. RP’s campaign has said that they get similar results

  3. Anecdotal evidence = meaningless

  4. We’ll see

We’ll see after the primary. Right now I’m certain Dr. Paul will do very well in Iowa.
