No money. I think it was all about "Ronnie the Rebel".

I made no mention of money. Can you substantiate your claim, or can you link to a past post in which you have done that?

As I think any campaign should be. I don't know if I agree with you, but your probably right.
He should think his ideas are the best, or he shouldn't run. Why should someone run? THe good of the country? What's the difference?
I guess maybe your trying to say he thinks his ideas will be popular but not good for the country, but promotes them anyways for support?
I really don't care. I like the man's platform and voted for him on that. I could care less about his personal reasons.

Zapp you must be joking. This is true about every politician.  Or do you really believe it's not true about the ones who agree with your views?

No, I think it was especially true about Paul because he knew good and well he had no fucking chance. His stupid supporters didn't know it, but he did. He was essentially running for Prom Queen of a Special Ed School and he got a whole lot of daft dopes to march off the cliff. Suckers, we call them, and we usually try to play cards with them.
