Paul Update March 2-9
On the 4th, Forbes.com released an op-ed written by Paul. Among other things regarding this country's economy, Paul noted that he "believe[s] that for our economy to be secure in the long term, Congress must reassert its authority and end the unconstitutional Federal Reserve." On the 6th, Paul released a video addressed to his supporters. In the video, Paul thanked them for their "enuthusiasm and hard work," while saying that "elections are short term efforts, revolutions are long term projects." Furthermore, Paul announced that he hopes that this revolution will continue but not as the "Ron Paul Revolution," suggesting an end to his presidential run. Although his campaign has come to an end, it is clear that with his grassroot support, this "revolution" is just beginning.

Paul Update Feb. 25th-Mar 1st
We have to give Ron Paul credit for staying in the Republican race. It looks like McCain has the nomination for sure, but Paul seems to be going strong. He has raised a total of over $6 million this quarter alone.
All throughout this election most people forgot that Paul was a congressman from the 14th district in Texas. He is starting to get nervous since his challenger, Chris Peden, portrays himself as everything the incumbent isn't: a loyal, mainstream conservative Republican. You think since Paul was running for President he would have more support from his district. Paul bowed out of a big Houston energy forum to focus on his congressional reelection in the short time remaining before the Texas primary March 4. If he prevails in the Texas primary and becomes the Republican nominee to return to Congress, his burden will be much lighter, enabling him to rededicate himself to the presidential race. paul has refocused his attention onto his congressional campaign where he is shown ahead in some polls, but we all know how those polls can be wrong.
Ron Paul has the answers, but nobody is listening. Isn't it funny how people are so afraid of change? So far many of Paul's supporters have been speaking out on why Paul is the best man for the President. I wonder if people are even hearing? I guess we will all find out in the primaries on Tuesday.
