The American Conservative Magazine Endorses Ron Paul for President

danarhea · 02-04-08, 02:11 PM

I wonder why American Conservative Magazine would give its endorsement to Ron Paul. Could it be that there are no other Conservatives now in the race for the GOP nomination? Ya' think? Actually, there is ONE other - Mike Huckabee, but after his speech in which he said the Constitution needed to be changed for Jesus, my support for him went out the window. That leaves just Ron Paul I can vote for, with a Conservative conscience.

Article is here.

He may not have a chance but I will vote for him tomorrow because I rather vote on principal than who can win.

He's had my vote since day one. Only tried and true small government candidate out there. And you know he would be limiting and slashing the government at every turn he could make. Probably why the powers that be do not want him considered as part of the race.

I see it as a case where they would like to increase their number of subscribers and figured, 'why not?' There's no other candidate they could have endorsed in hopes of attracting more readers & subscribers. Lemming-like readers & subscribers, but readers & subscribers, nonetheless!

Kinda like settling for most ANY girl remaining if you haven't hooked up with someone else by closing time.

EDIT: NOOOOOOO!

I WAS WRONG. SOOOO WRONG!

It is Pat Buchanan's magazine!

In their eyes Ron Paul is the gold standard!

I'd say it's Fool's Gold.

Probably the Libertarian candidate, my vote will never go to a big government socialist.
